Despite her disappointment in He Xiaoman, she was Lu Xia's biological mother after all. Lu Xia sat down on the couch. She looked at her mother, and asked calmly. "What happened?"
He Xiaoman leaned into the couch and said nothing for a long time.
Lu Xia sat beside her and slowly spun her phone casually.
Even without asking He Xiaoman, she had an inkling. They probably lost the bid on the old district project.
After some time, He Xiaoman seemed to gather her thoughts and looked at her biological daughter. She forced out a smile. "Our family doesn't have a chance at winning the bid."
Lu Xia was unsurprised by the outcome. After all, the Lu family did not win the bid in her past life either.
"It's not easy to win this bid," said Lu Xia with her legs crossed.
He Xiaoman frowned. This was the second time she had heard her daughter saying something similar and telling them to give up on the project.
