Chapter 1140: Lin Jinshu’s Motive
Xia Qingwei smiled bitterly . “My bad, I was too anxious . Come on in . Have you eaten?”
“Haven’t . ” Seeing that Xia Qingwei was alright, Lu Man asked, “If you’re fine, Mom, then is it Dad?”
“I’m fine too . Fine . ” Wang Juhuai quickly came out, showing an apologetic face .
Naturally, Lu Man noticed .
“I’ll make lunch since we both have yet to eat . We’ll discuss over lunch,” Xia Qingwei said .
“You make lunch and I’ll tell Man Man so she can stop worrying,” Wang Juhuai told Xia Qingwei .
Xia Qingwei nodded . ”‘Kay . ”
Lu Man changed her shoes, went to the living room, and sat before Wang Juhuai told her about Lin Jinshu .
Though he found it hard to speak at first, the words flowed out smoother the more he spoke .
“I understand . ” Lu Man nodded . Sensing Wang Juhuai’s awkwardness, Lu Man smiled . “It’s alright, Dad . ”
Taken aback, Wang Juhuai lifted his eyes to see Lu Man smiling reassuringly at him .
It was as if she knew what Wang Juhuai was worried about .
Warmth filled Wang Juhuai’s heart upon seeing Lu Man like this .
Even without a child of his own, he was content with Lu Man’s thoughtfulness .
Xia Qingwei cooked a few simple dishes . Although it was not a major thing, getting irritated by Lin Jinshu and losing a job she liked caused Xia Qingwei to lack the spirit to cook up a feast .
“Your dad told you already?” Xia Qingwei asked as she placed the meal on the dining table .

“Yes . ” Lu Man nodded . “Come on, Dad, let’s go eat . I’ll handle this matter . ”
As Lu Man ate, she dialed for Xiao Guo .
When Dai Yiran sent people to hijack her car, she’d witnessed Xiao Guo’s capability .
Xiao Guo and Xiao Chen had obviously received professional training . They were not just plain chauffeurs .
When Han Zhuoli sent Xiao Guo to Lu Man, he was also giving a bodyguard to her .
If Xiao Chen had the ability to investigate, Xiao Guo should be able to as well .
Lu Man called Xiao Guo . “Could you help me check something?”
As expected, Xiao Guo did not even ask how difficult the task would be . He simply said, “Anything, just say it . ”

“Help me check Lin Jinshu’s schedule for these few days . ” Lu Man added, “Lin Jinshu’s my stepdad’s ex-wife . ”
“Understood . Give me an hour . ” Xiao Guo was straightforward .
Putting down her phone, Lu Man explained, “Lin Jinshu wouldn’t just want to ruin my mom’s reputation . Claiming to be Dad’s wife is a feeble lie that can break down at any moment . Lin Jinshu isn’t that dumb . ”
To have successfully married Wang Juhuai using her trap showed that she was no fool .
“I think it’s highly likely that she wants to meet Dad,” Lu Man analyzed . “She probably thinks that as long as she meets Dad and says something, she can achieve her motive and reconcile with him . ”
“She can dream on!” Wang Juhuai fumed .
Lu Man smiled . “She probably only has confidence in her schemes . ”
Not long after lunch, Lu Man received Xiao Guo’s reply .

“Thank you,” Lu Man said .
“No need to be this polite . Young Master Han sent me to you not just to drive you around but also to protect you . And of course, to find me if you require any investigation,” Xiao Guo said as he smiled .
Ah, her guess was correct .
Upon hanging up, Lu Man told Wang Juhuai Lin Jinshu’s schedule . “She’s attending a business dinner tonight . It’s rumored that she’s intending to expand and invest in B City . She’s a Chinese from overseas, and Mayor He places great importance on attracting businesses and investments, so he’ll attend tonight as well . Tonight’s dinner is rather important, so there’ll be many important people . ”
