Standing Committee Member Zhou said earnestly to Premier Li, "Premier Li, Lin Jia once expressed a willingness to help us three times, and I would like to use that as a reason to invite her back." However, Premier Li gently shook his head, frowned, and said, "I deeply feel that Lin Jia's abilities are unfathomable. Those three acts of assistance are extremely crucial to our country, and I am unwilling to waste such an opportunity lightly. You should invite her with utmost sincerity instead of trying to take shortcuts or act opportunistically." Hearing Premier Li's words, Standing Committee Member Zhou could not help feeling a sense of loss; his small schemes had been seen through at a glance by Premier Li.
Lin Jia specifically asked Jin Shangwen out for a private discussion. Looking at Jin Shangwen with eyes full of appreciation, she said, "Shangwen, your aptitude and abilities are truly outstanding, and I hold high hopes for you. I have decided to devote all my energy and wholeheartedly cultivate you, helping you become a top-tier figure."
Jin Shangwen did not know much about Lin Jia, only that she was a rather influential person. Maintaining a calm composure, he replied, "Thank you for your high regard, President Lin."
