At the Shangri-La Grand Hotel, a party even grander than the birthday cocktail party organized by Wen Haowen at the Oriental Pearl Hotel was currently being held.

The bright, glittering chandeliers, dazzling with a mix of yellow and white lights, shone upon the mass of perfumed clothes and gorgeous hair in the hall beneath! Luxurious red wine and elegant champagne went around toasting each other in extravagance.

The invited guests chatted cheerfully in a jovial mood.

Situated at a corner with red wine in hand, Wen Xinya watched as familiar and unknown faces in the circle all gathered here and smiled coldly.

Since Ning Shuqian wanted to plot against her, she would then ensure that her party failed, becoming a laughing stock in the circle.

She could imagine how furious would Wen Haowen be now—he’d be so angry that his facial features would morph hideously, but would have no choice but to forbear his exasperation, saving however little image that was left of himself.

As for Ning Shuqian, how humiliated she would be feeling right now—her flashy dream came true only to turn into a nightmare of humiliation instantly, falling from heaven to hell in a moment. Wen Xinya wondered if she could handle such a blow.

Previously, guessing that Si Yiyan’s identity was mysterious and unpredictable, she had asked for his help. However, she did not expect for him to easily activate Chief Sun of the National Security Department—in the capital city, there was only a handful whom Chief Sun of the National Security Department would show such respect to.

She had gone through these reputable and affluent families, but none of them matched Si Yiyan’s identity.

“Previously, Gu Junling said he saw you at the party—I’ve been searching for you, but didn’t expect you to be hiding in this odd corner.” Zhou Tianyu, dressed in a citrus-red dress, strolled up to her with a glass of champagne in her hand.

“Too many people at the party—seeking some peace by hiding away.” Wen Xinya gently swirled the glass of red wine in her hand with a look of extreme boredom on her face.

“Oh, I almost didn’t notice—today’s party seem especially crowded.” Zhou Tianyu looked over to the event hall—from a distance, massive crowds could be seen—and noticed that almost all of the capital city’s famous faces were gathered here.

Wen Xinya’s lips curled up into a faintly discernible smirk, but any trace of the smirk was blocked by the crystal glass.

Zhou Tianyu looked at the event hall and couldn’t help but wonder. “The wife of Chief Sun is well-known in the circle for her frugality, and never held any public parties, how come she just suddenly organized a birthday party? How strange…”

Wen Xinya smiled slightly. “Who knows!”

Zhou Tianyu still felt perplexed. “Mrs. Sun’s birthday falls in December, and now it’s already August—to say it’s a make-up birthday party, we might as well say that it’s an advance birthday party which sounds better. I feel that this matter is rather strange.”

Wen Xinya thought of Si Yiyan and deepened her smile. “Yup! Indeed, it’s rather strange.”

Zhou Tianyu added, “You weren’t there, but when my Father brought me over to greet Chief Sun, Chief Sun’s face was ferociously twitching from smiling, looking extremely ridiculous—that’s why I feel that there’s more than meets the eye for this matter.”
