Lin Shuwen's gaze was cold. He looked at He Xiaoman and interrupted her directly, "Every company that comes to bid will make a long preparation in advance. If your Lu Group really meets the requirements, you don't have to look for me. We will look for you."
Lin Shuwen paused before he raised his hand to look at the time. He looked a little impatient as he said, "Sorry, I'm in a hurry."
Then he turned around to pull the door handle of the front passenger seat.
He Xiaoman could tell that Lin Shuwen was getting impatient. However, if she let go of this opportunity to plead for leniency, she might not be able to come across it again. Hence, she took another step forward and stood beside the car door. "Secretary Lin, please wait."
Lin Shuwen's hand paused. A look of displeasure appeared on his face.
He Xiaoman usually came into contact with socialites and noblewomen. She rarely interacted with officials, so when she faced Lin Shuwen, she still felt a little scared. It was difficult for her to maintain the temperament of a rich lady.
"… Actually, I just want to know. You were very optimistic about our Lu Enterprises before. Why did you suddenly fail? If you are disgusted by my stupidity, I apologize to you right now. "He Xiaoman had thrown all caution to the wind.
Lin Shuwen found this amusing. "Since when did I give Lu Corporation such a high opinion of me?"
He Xiaoman choked. She recalled what her husband had said and replied. "Didn't you say that you were going to focus on Lu Corporation?"
Didn't they want to focus on the target? Didn't they want to give the opportunity to Lu Enterprises?
Lin Shuwen understood what He Xiaoman meant. He pursed his lips and said, "Mrs. Lu, you must have misunderstood what I meant."
After thinking for two seconds, Lin Shuwen didn't hide it and said directly, "But it's okay to tell you. Originally, this key inspection was also an opportunity for your Lu Enterprises, but unfortunately …"
Lin Shuwen smiled and shook his head. He did not continue.
He Xiaoman's breath caught in her throat. "... Just because I gave you my card?"
Lin Shuwen looked at her coldly. He tidied his sleeves unhurriedly and did not reply to her question.
He Xiaoman's heart sank bit by bit. After a few seconds of silence, she asked again. "Why are you focusing on Lu Corporation?"
Lin Shuwen recalled Huo Yao's attitude and replied calmly. "Oh. It might be a misunderstanding."
"M-misunderstanding? What, what do you mean? "He Xiaoman was eager to know the whole story.
Lin Shuwen smiled and shook his head. He had no intention of revealing Huo Yao's identity. After all, he and Fang Chen were the ones who had misunderstood Huo Yao from the beginning. There was no need to bring unnecessary trouble to Huo Yao.
Without further explanation, Lin Shuwen opened the door, bent down to get in, and then told the driver to drive.
The car started. He Xiaoman didn't have the chance to ask more questions even if she wanted to.
He Xiaoman stood rooted to the spot for a long time as she watched the car drive away. She was still trying to figure out what Lin Shuwen meant by 'misunderstanding' when the Lu family's driver drove over.
The chauffeur got out of the car and opened the door for her. She only came back to her senses when he called out to her. Looking at the respectful attitude of the chauffeur as he waited for her to get in the car, a terrifying thought suddenly flashed through He Xiaoman's mind.
Just now, Lin Shuwen seemed to treat her foster daughter the same way her chauffeur was treating her now …
