Chapter 236: 239 The deep affection without regret is fake, power and status are the truth

Song Lili curled up, lying on her side facing a glass window, watching the dark night until dawn.

Lu Ziqing leaned on the bed, also sleepless throughout the night.

Around six o’clock, he called room service and had breakfast brought in.

"Get up and drink some water, eat something."

Song Lili closed her eyes briefly, then crawled out of bed,

"I want to take a shower first."

Seeing her stir, Lu Ziqing breathed a sigh of relief, "Go ahead."

Song Lili took her shower and came out wearing the hotel robe, her hair still dripping wet.

Lu Ziqing sat at the dining table and patted the seat next to him, gesturing for her to come over and sit.

Besides breakfast, there was also a medical kit on the table.

It must have been delivered by the hotel while she was in the shower.

"Give me your hand."

Song Lili extended both hands, and Lu Ziqing frowned slightly as he examined her palms, noticing several small stones were embedded in the flesh.

"I’m going to pick out the stones, it might hurt a bit."

Song Lili didn’t speak, letting Lu Ziqing proceed.

Freeing one hand, she picked up a piece of bread and started nibbling on it.

Lu Ziqing glanced at her, "Are you hungry?"

Song Lili nodded.

"Eat more, it’s good that you can eat."

Song Lili looked at the holes being picked in her palm and tugged at the corner of her lips in self-mockery.

"What are you laughing at?"

"Laughing at my own stupidity..."

Lu Ziqing raised his eyebrows, "Not bad, you even know you’re stupid. What’s stupid about you?"

"My body is my own, if others don’t cherish it, how can I not cherish it."

Lu Ziqing gave her another look, "Your brain is quite satisfied, huh?"

Song Lili forced a smile,

"Last night... I must have scared you, Brother Lu."

Lu Ziqing sighed, "You’re saying that I, the commander of the Xilin Military Region, who has seen bloodshed on the battlefield, wasn’t scared by any of that, but last night, the way you were, I was truly frightened."

"...Sorry, last night... I was a bit... out of control..."

"Just a bit? What would it look like if you were completely out of control?"

Lu Ziqing teased.

"You wouldn’t want to see."

Song Lili also replied with a laugh.

Lu Ziqing carefully wiped her injured palms, looking at her hands and tentatively asked,

"So, do you feel a bit better now?"

"Much better."

Song Lili said flatly.

Even someone as blunt as Lu Ziqing could tell that Song Lili’s reply was dismissive.

Of course, his question was quite foolish in the first place.

"I don’t know if the news came out about last night’s incident."

Lu Ziqing said,

"The car was coming from the Old President’s villa, and most of the news has been blocked. Any news that did get out, is most likely what the Wen Family wanted to leak."

"...What news got out?"

Song Lili asked.

Lu Ziqing took a deep breath,

"Deputy Mayor Song Jiayu’s daughter Song Lili, accidentally deceased, along with a driver with the surname Qian."

"..."

Song Lili clenched her fists tightly.

"Lili, last night you said you were Wen Nian’s..."

Lu Ziqing asked cautiously, "Is it true?"

Although Song Lili had been emotionally out of control the night before, she still remembered what she had said and done.

She looked towards Lu Ziqing,

"Otherwise, why would Mr. President want to murder me?"

"...You and Wen Nian really..."

Lu Ziqing was still somewhat unclear about the connection.

Song Lili took a deep breath, not minding to explain a bit for Lu Ziqing,

"Wen Nian and I got married right when he took office, but no one in the country knew. Now, I don’t know how the news reached the ears of the Old President Wen."

"Wen Liangyu has his own strategic chessboard, and I am the person who disrupts it. How could he tolerate me? As for Wen Nian... as he said himself, he can’t possibly let Wen Liangyu dictate his moves because of me."

Song Lili chuckled,

"So you see... unregretting deep affection is false, power and position are real."
