Lerong truly believed that her daughter’s guess was absurd, but... investigating wouldn’t hurt.
Once doubts took root in one’s heart, it was best to dispel them.
Yet, the President was no ordinary person; his private information, apart from the part made public, was all in classified files, and it indeed required so effort to check the President’s marital status.
Investigating was possible, but it was definitely not good if it was discovered that they had looked into it.
"Alright, Mom will figure sothing out."
Hearing Lerong say this, Song Xiangqiao felt sowhat reassured.
Everything else could wait until the results ca back.
So, two days passed, and the results ca in faster and more shockingly than anticipated.
Upon hanging up the call that delivered the results, Lerong was like soone struck by lightning. As Song Xiangqiao just got ho, seeing her mother’s expression post-phone call, she had an idea,
"I didn’t hear wrong... did I?"
"The President’s marital status is... married."
"I knew it, I knew it! That day when Brother Wen Nian ca to find Song Lili at our house, I felt sothing was off between them! They stayed in the room for so long, and when Song Lili ca out, her lips were swollen!"
Song Xiangqiao beca instantly agitated, her fists clenched,
"I wondered how Song Lili suddenly beca so haughty and proud! I wondered why her temperant changed so drastically!"
"Xiangqiao, calm down for a mont, we only know that the President’s marital status has changed, but we don’t know who he has married."
"Mom, do we need to check? Who else could it be but Song Lili?"
Lerong shook her head,
"Think about it carefully, when Wen Nian ca to find Song Lili that day, what was Song Lili’s attitude towards Wen Nian?"
Song Xiangqiao thought back carefully, that day... Song Lili was not only rude to her but to Wen Nian as well.
"The day before that day, it was Lili’s twentieth birthday, she had just reached the legal age for marriage."
Lerong’s thoughts were much clearer and calr than Song Xiangqiao’s.
"...Mom, I know you make sense, but I just feel... it can’t be anyone other than Song Lili."
"..."
A determined expression crossed Song Xiangqiao’s pretty, sweet face.
Then, without waiting for Lerong to say anything else, she said, "I know what to do next."
"What?"
Lerong was startled, "What are you going to do, you cheeky girl?"
"If Brother Wen Nian really married Song Lili, the elders of the Wen Family would definitely not approve. Mom, you’ve told this, and I believe it without doubt."
"..."
"So I just need to hint to the Wen Family’s grandfather, and then he will naturally find out."
"Are you saying you want to et Wen Liangyu?"
"Yes."
"Wen Liangyu is a high-profile figure; you can’t just et him whenever you want."
"Mom, you don’t need to worry about that, I have my own ways."
Song Xiangqiao finished speaking and turned to leave the house. Lerong quickly got up and grabbed her. "Xiangqiao! Calm down!"
"Mom, how can I be calm! Compared to Song Lili, I’m so much better in so many ways! Why have I been working so hard? From the first ti I saw Brother Wen Nian, I’ve been in love with him!"
"..."
"Ever since I knew he could beco the President of G country, I’ve worked even harder, fearing I wouldn’t be good enough for him! And now..."
