Chapter 353: 355 She is the real President’s wife
She hurried over and saw Lu Ziqing and Wen Nian wrestling together!
"What are you guys doing!"
She watched the two men in shock, Lu Ziqing clutching Wen Nian’s collar, his face red with anger, breathing heavily through his flared nostrils!
And Wen Nian was blocking his knee strikes, his other hand tightly gripping Lu’s wrist,
"Wen Nian, she chose you! She chose you!"
"... Lu Ziqing, you’re being too presumptuous!"
Wen Nian said sternly, clearly suppressing a deep, deep fury.
Tang Xiaohua saw the corner of Wen Nian’s eye was swollen.
She went up and pulled the two men apart, thankful she was a soldier; otherwise, she would be powerless against these two large men fighting!
"What are you doing!"
She yanked the two men apart! Tang Xiaohua yelled!
Qu Yu on the side was anxiously clenching his fists and stamping his feet, and there were several guards nearby, but no one came forward to intervene.
"What are you guys good for!"
Tang Xiaohua glared at them.
Qu Yu quickly explained, "His Excellency ordered us not to interfere..."
Tang Xiaohua glanced at Wen Nian, leaning back on the sofa, his eye badly swollen; he was looking at Lu Ziqing while Lu Ziqing was breathing hard, his gaze much fiercer than Wen Nian’s!
"What’s going on here?"
Tang Xiaohua positioned herself between the two men, who were both still seething, as if ready to charge again at any moment!
"Do you know he’s engaged to Bai Qiantan from the Bai Family!"
"..."
Tang Xiaohua pursed her lips and gave Qu Yu a look, after which Qu Yu promptly evacuated everyone from the parlor, and the door was closed.
"Xiao Li, you chose him, but what about him?"
"Brother Lu, please calm down. His situation with Bai Qiantan... I’m aware of it."
"You are?"
"... Yes."
Wen Nian stood there, silent and motionless, just watching the furious Lu Ziqing.
"So what are you implying? That it doesn’t bother you to watch him get engaged to someone else?"
Lu Ziqing looked at Tang Xiaohua incredulously, truly unable to understand, his heart filled with myriad thoughts, feeling like Tang Xiaohua was devaluing herself!
"Brother Lu, he won’t get engaged to Bai Qiantan."
After Tang Xiaohua spoke, Wen Nian was taken aback.
Regarding Bai Qiantan, they had only discussed it once, and he had never mentioned getting engaged to her.
Tang Xiaohua hadn’t brought it up, so he didn’t explain it either.
"I went to the Bai Family today, and I saw uncles and aunts from the Wen Family, Wen Chou and Xiao Ziyan at Bai’s, they were discussing the details of the engagement!"
"..."
Tang Xiaohua pursed her lips again, looking at Wen Nian.
In truth, she could understand his situation with Bai Qiantan. It was most likely a political marriage arranged by Old Master Wen before the election campaign for the sake of Wen Nian’s votes and approval ratings.
As for any other dealings Old Master Wen might have with the Bai Family in private, she couldn’t guess at the moment.
From Bai Qiantan’s perspective, she was definitely unwilling.
"How did you explain it to Xiao Li? Did you lie to her?"
Lu Ziqing questioned Wen Nian.
Wen Nian felt a sickening taste in his mouth, narrowing his eyes at Lu Ziqing, "Commander Lu, who gave you the audacity to come to the President Mansion and start a fight?"
"Does that matter? If you wrong Song Lili, I will tear down this President Mansion! Let all the citizens of Country G know their President is a faithless man!"
Wen Nian chuckled,
"On what grounds does Commander Lu seek justice for her?"
"I’m her elder brother! I’m her instructor, her friend! Just based on these, I have every right to seek justice for her!"
"Brother Lu, please don’t get agitated... okay?"
Tang Xiaohua softly tried to calm Lu Ziqing down.
Even with Wen Nian’s good temper and his broad-minded generosity, he would never allow anyone to challenge his authority as the President like this!
Of course, she was touched in her heart. At this time, Brother Lu was still protecting her.
She hadn’t delved into the matter between Bai Qiantan and Wen Nian—perhaps because she knew that Bai Qiantan’s heart wasn’t really with Wen Nian at all. If one were to talk about reluctance, Bai Qiantan might be even less willing to enter into this political marriage than Wen Nian.
"Wen Nian, will you get engaged to Bai Qiantan?"
She looked at him, feeling he would not, but if he said he would...
"I will not."
Wen Nian’s response was indifferent but very firm.
"Then whose engagement ceremony details are the Wen Family parents discussing at the Bai Family?"
"I don’t know; I never said I wanted to marry Bai Qiantan."
"Wen Nian!"
The door was flung open!
Bai Qiantan stormed in with a fierce momentum, and Qu Yu couldn’t stop her. Tang Xiaohua and Wen Nian almost simultaneously turned towards Qu Yu with the same expression.
Qu Yu shrank back, covered in cold sweat,
"Bai, Miss Bai... Really, despite her small stature, she has great bursting strength..."
"Get out!"
Wen Nian roared.
Qu Yu hurriedly closed the door, sealing the entire battlefield within the reception room. He leaned against the door, curling his lips, and feeling extremely aggrieved—what in the world was going on!
Inside the room, Bai Qiantan’s nose was still wrapped in bandages, looking quite comical. She charged up to Wen Nian,
"Say it again! What did you just say?"
"Bai Qiantan, I will not marry you. I already have a wife."
"..."
Bai Qiantan furrowed her brows, a trace of astonishment flickered in her eyes, then realization, "So it’s true... But Song Lili is dead! Even if I marry you, it doesn’t matter—I’m not asking you to take any responsibility for me. I just want this marriage!"
"Using the President’s marriage to protect the person in your heart, do you think that person has such great prestige?"
Wen Nian’s amber eyes stared straight at her, hitting the nail on the head.
Bai Qiantan’s body stiffened for a moment, then she stammered, "What, what are you talking about, I don’t understand..."
"Zeng Youleng."
Wen Nian blurted out a name, and Bai Qiantan’s complexion turned pale instantly with the mention of it.
"...You know?"
"Qiantan, all I can do for you is to win you these four more months. Whatever deal there is between your father and my grandfather is none of my business."
"So... all this time, you never thought of marrying me?"
Wen Nian shook his head, "I thought about it."
"..."
At this, Tang Xiaohua was taken aback.
"Back then, I thought Lili would not return, so... if this political marriage could bring me tangible benefits, I would have chosen it."
"..."
Wen Nian looked at Tang Xiaohua, "Anyway, if it’s not Song Lili, it doesn’t matter who else."
"What do you mean by that?"
Bai Qiantan felt a chill down her back.
Following Wen Nian’s gaze, she turned to look at Tang Xiaohua,
"Could it be... you are... Song Lili?"
Bai Qiantan’s eyes widened even more than a cow’s, "Isn’t Song Lili already dead? Isn’t she... a stand-in you found?"
She was utterly confused!
"She is Song Lili, the real President’s wife, the President of Country G. He certainly can’t commit the crime of bigamy."
