Chapter 194: Elder Wen’s 197th Birthday Banquet Invitation
Song Lili gestured to Wei Yuandong, signaling her to see Dr. Ou out first.
Dr. Ou glanced at the elderly man who was in his fifties, with half-grey hair and deep eye bags. He was dressed in a neat and tidy butler’s uniform, his face aged, yet his spirit remained vigorous.
After seeing off Dr. Ou, Song Lili returned to the hall, where, at that moment, Miu Lerong and her father had also come down from upstairs.
Seeing the old butler from Wen Mansion, they quickly greeted him politely,
"I wonder what brings the old butler to visit Song’s residence?"
Wei Yuandong took out two invitation cards from his chest pocket, "I am not here to see Mayor Song, but to deliver invitations to Mayor Song’s two daughters."
"..."
Song Jiayu was startled for a moment; by her side, Song Xiangqiao raised her eyebrows, puzzled.
"Not to hide from Mayor Song and the First Lady, Old Master Wen is getting on in years, and he’s continually worried about the President’s lifelong affairs."
"..."
Wei Yuandong’s words caused Miu Lerong’s expression to change; the confusion in her eyes deepened than before.
Song Lili also heard Uncle Wei’s words as she approached.
She wasn’t surprised to receive such an invitation.
In her previous life, Wen Liangyu was determined to arrange a suitable marriage for Wen Nian, but Wen Nian consistently refused. Ultimately, Wen Liangyu organized a publicly-known gathering of young talents, which in reality, was for Wen Nian to choose a woman.
Of course... She hadn’t received an invitation to that banquet. The debutantes present were all favored by Old Mr. Wen, each significant in terms of power, wealth, and even diplomacy.
And this invitation...
Song Lili opened the envelope and took out the red invitation card with gold borders. The name ’Song Lili’ was written powerfully and vigorously,
"Given the President’s busy daily duties, Elder Wen fears he only focuses on work without solving personal matters. Unfortunately, Old Master Wen also fears that selecting a wife for the President might seem too obvious, making it a subject of ridicule. Therefore, he uses his seventy-eighth birthday as a reason to host a banquet, inviting young members from prestigious and wealthy families."
Song Lili took a deep breath, somewhat puzzled...
Whether it was this seventy-eighth birthday or the previous life’s gathering of young talents, the feeling they gave Song Lili was the same.
Old Master Wen was becoming increasingly eager to find a wife for Wen Nian.
What she didn’t understand was, why... so soon?
Wen Nian was only twenty-six; it wouldn’t be strange if he didn’t marry during his presidency, yet Elder Wen expressed concerns that Wen Nian might miss out on a lifelong affair... this explanation seemed far-fetched.
Moreover...
The invitation was delivered to her just after her return, wasn’t that too coincidental?
Song Lili pondered, after all, in her previous life, she had no opportunity to attend that party, so what kind of program Old Master Wen would arrange for such an event was beyond her reach.
"So... although many talented young men will be invited, in reality, the girls who want to turn into a golden phoenix should take this banquet seriously."
Wei Yuandong explained with a chuckle.
Song Jiayu and Miu Lerong looked at each other, each with their thoughts.
Miu Lerong looked towards Song Xiangqiao... Song Xiangqiao stared at the invitation in her hands, her brows unconsciously furrowed. Her mind was full of thoughts, and she couldn’t spare the time to listen to what the old butler was saying anymore.
As for Song Jiayu, he didn’t want Lili to venture into these muddy waters. With the old butler’s brief words, Song Jiayu could imagine the scene of fierce competition and beauty battles... Lili was not suited for that.
