Chapter 203: Is 206 the Hongmen Banquet?

Wen Liangyu’s intentions, Lili had always been aware of them, expecting the most from Wen Nian but also being the cruelest person to him.

Rather than saying he did it for Wen Nian’s political arena, it would be more accurate to say it was for his own lust for power.

He had always been determined to control Wen Nian’s marriage.

That year Wen Nian turned thirty and was re-elected President, yet he continually kept marriage at bay. Wen Liangyu always considered himself Wen Nian’s lover, unaware of who had inspired him to suddenly check Wen Nian’s marital status, only to discover his own name written in the spouse column.

It was then that Song Lili truly realized Old Master Wen’s prowess.

Wen Nian didn’t know, perhaps no one did, that the octogenarian Old President, just to have Wen Nian marry the daughter-in-law he liked, had ordered an assassination on her.

She had a stroke of luck and escaped death, not knowing at the time that it was Old Master Wen who had ordered the hit. It was by chance that she overheard a conversation between Old Master Wen and his wife.

After that brush with danger, wherever she went, the security around her was on the same level as the President’s, although they were all undercover.

So what if he had been President, he still didn’t value human life, and still acted out of his own selfish desires.

Such a man... she had once greatly admired him when she was ten.

Wen Liangyu hosted a banquet for the socialites and young talents of Country G, hoping to select a candidate wife for the President at the banquet hall... and he actually sent her an invitation?

Was the threshold for entry not too low?

Wen Liangyu had never thought highly of her; this had been the case since she and Elder Wen first met, and continued after Elder Wen found out about her relationship with Wen Nian.

After she died, Old Master Wen must have been pleased.

As Song Lili thought about it, a chill suddenly ran through her, and she immediately opened her eyes which she had just closed.

In the pitch-black space... Song Lili seemed to see a pair of eyes surrounded by wrinkles, eyes like those of an old wolf, glinting green, malicious and cruel.

Wen Liangyu... could he have already known about her marriage to Wen Nian?

Such a thought flitted through her brain and was enough to jolt Song Lili fully awake!

In her past life, it was in the fifth year that Wen Liangyu discovered her secret with Wen Nian.

Logically, it shouldn’t happen so soon in this life—hold on, everything was changing. Her choices, her experiences, every move she made was shifting because the trajectory of her fate had altered, and naturally, so had everyone else’s.

She absolutely couldn’t let her thinking be constrained by her past life experiences.

If Wen Liangyu really did know, then this banquet...

Song Lili quickly turned on the light; the darkness of the room had almost suffocated her.

It was still too early now, far too early to confront Wen Liangyu.

She didn’t know how likely her aggressive speculation was to be true, but even a ten percent chance represented a hundred percent danger to her in her current situation.

Wen Liangyu was definitely the type to crush a fledgling bird in its nest.

What to do...

How should she respond to this possibility?

Having arrived in Country M, Wen Nian reached his residence, and it wasn’t long before Qu Yu roughly understood the situation surrounding Wen Liangyu’s birthday banquet and immediately reported back to Wen Nian.

"According to Wei Yuandong, the Second Miss Song has not visited the Wen Mansion in the past few days, but Wei Yuandong took care of your personal affairs at the President Mansion one day and doesn’t yet know whether or not you visited Old Master Wen at the Wen Mansion that day," Qu Yu said.

"Tell him to go find out and investigate. Checking the Wen Mansion’s visitor surveillance should be an easy task," Wen Nian responded at once.
