"Wait."

His terse voice stopped her midway from turning around. Hui Yin glanced back and saw that he was pushing a blank piece of paper towards her.

"Help me draft a personal vision and strategic direction for the company."

Hui Yin\'s hand jerked on the pencil that she was holding. Why was he letting a maid help him with this?

"Sir, I don\'t know how to..."

"Just write what I\'m dictating. All you need to do is to listen."

Slowly, Hui Yin\'s tense shoulders relaxed. So, it was like that. She thought she was already discovered. After all, during the entirety of their marriage life, she helped him with these simple tasks.

For three hours, Hui Yin kept quiet and listed down everything Lu Shen had dictated. External and internal competitive landscape, opportunities for expansion, customer base, markets, new industry developments and standards...it wasn\'t long before both the front and back page were filled with notes. Lu Shen not only had to think like a CEO, he also needed to properly manage the company as the Chairman of the board of directors.

Hui Yin wrinkled her nose.

This was the main problem with this man\'s personality. He was too controlling. It would take a lot off his shoulders to give up one of his position as he was already the founder of the Lu Corporation, but he didn\'t trust anyone else aside from himself. Drinking coffee like water, enduring sleepless nights and waking up early...along with his vices, it was no wonder his personality was so bad. He didn\'t have any other emotions aside from fatigue.

Hui Yin slightly understood that he didn\'t have the time to take care of a wife at home, so in her past life she endured it. She thought it was because he was too busy. But wasn\'t he too biased with his affections? No matter how much she tried to help him, what little time he had was spent on Nian Zhen.

In the end, he even cheated on her.

Above all else, this was what she couldn\'t forgive.

"Alright, you can go now. Tell the butler that you don\'t have to attend to your morning duties."

Hui Yin nodded. Before she left, she saw Lu Shen open the cup of noodles she brought him. It must have already gotten cold.

Because she hadn\'t eaten any dinner, Hui Yin went to the kitchen first. She noticed with some relief that they left her some dishes. After eating her fill and washing the plates, Hui Yin felt a bit nauseous. She touched her forehead and leaned on the sink, trying to calm down her breathing. Did she get a cold from when she fell into the pool before?

Her surroundings whirled, and Hui Yin stumbled as the world suddenly became dark. Then her eyesight recovered and she realized that she was heavily panting. Her heart was racing inside her chest, as if it was about to burst. Hui Yin clutched her forehead and bit her cheek until she tasted blood.

What was happening to her?

Her eyes landed on the plates she just recently washed. They were still dripping, each trickle of water resonating with the pounding in her forehead. Her tongue felt thick inside her mouth as she mumbled, "Drugged...I was drugged..."

Then her head hit the floor and Hui Yin blacked out.

...

When Hui Yin opened her eyes, she was lying at the bottom of the swimming pool.

She stared at the patch of night sky that was rippled and bent, only illuminated by the fiber optic lights around the pool\'s perimeter. Panic rose in her throat as a whiteout of bubbles spilled out of her mouth in a cry of surprise.

Her limbs were as heavy as slabs of cement. Hui Yin couldn\'t move. She could only lie there, immobile, and wait for her death. She couldn\'t even reach for the hairpin that was always in her hair. If she died a natural death, then she would truly die and not be reborn.

Black spots covered her field of vision as Hui Yin tried hard not to breathe. She struggled to move even one of her fingers, but they didn\'t even twitch. Who drugged her? Was it Bao Bai?

It could only be her. She was the only one who had enmity with Hui Yin in her current body.

Hui Yin felt bitter. She was not willing to die like this.

She finally realized that she shouldn\'t have hesitated. She should have told Lu Shen about the Wen family from the very beginning. Maybe not about Hui Jinhai, but some of the things she knew. He could help her.

Her hatred for him had muddled her head.
