Chapter 142: Chapter 142: Willing to Attend this Feast at Hongmen

"But as they say, hard work pays off, and after following Su Wanxin for several days, Sun Tianran finally came up with a good plan.

She arranged everything and reported the progress to Shen Xiaochen, who then cheerfully went to invite Su Wanxin to her birthday party.

When Su Wanxin received the call from Shen Xiaochen, her first thought was, did this idiot dial the wrong number? After hearing Shen Xiaochen’s purpose for calling, Su Wanxin couldn’t help but laugh out loud.

"Me, attend your birthday party?" Su Wanxin thought she must be out of her mind. "Are you meaning for me to bring a wreath and wish you a happy birthday?"

Shen Xiaochen was furious upon hearing this but had to hold it in.

"After all, we’ve known each other for so many years, when will the cycle of vendetta end? Su Wanxin, I truly want to make peace with you."

Su Wanxin rolled her eyes, not believing a word of it.

She didn’t think Shen Xiaochen was so kind-hearted to invite her to the party for no reason; there must be a trap waiting for her to fall into.

"Even if you don’t want to reconcile with me, then let me ask you, don’t you want to know the truth behind the car accident three years ago? Which servant from the Fu Family did I bribe to put things in the car? Aren’t you curious?"

Another remark from Shen Xiaochen made Su Wanxin’s gaze darken. "Are you admitting that the car accident from three years ago was related to you?"

"I’m just admitting that I put my belongings in Shihan’s car and then deliberately made you angry. You were driving the car, what does it have to do with me?"

Shen Xiaochen’s tone carried a hint of schadenfreude.

"It was your poor driving skills that led to the accident, breaking Shihan’s mother’s leg—I didn’t ask you to crash into someone else’s car!"

Su Wanxin gritted her teeth and asked, "Are you sure, if I go, you’ll tell me the name of that servant?"

"I will, I promise."

"And if you go back on your word, do you know the consequences?" Su Wanxin reminded quietly, "My agreement to attend this ’Hongmen Banquet’ is predicated on getting that person’s name. If I don’t get what I want, I guarantee, the next one to break both legs will be you."

Shen Xiaochen felt a chill down her spine and shuddered. "Are you threatening me? Think you’ll get away with breaking my legs?"

"I broke Li Mo’s legs three years ago, and am I not still fine and dandy?" Su Wanxin said with a smile: "Do you think your legs are more precious than those of Fu Shihan’s mother?"

"...Fine, I will tell you the name of that person."

"Deal, I’ll be there on time this Saturday."

Su Wanxin hung up the phone and closed her eyes in thought for a moment.

She was clear that something was bound to happen on Saturday; Shen Xiaochen had prepared everything to deal with her.

But that’s life, to get something, you have to give something first. So she was willing to go to this ’Hongmen Banquet’ and leap into the pit Shen Xiaochen had dug for her.

Moreover, she didn’t believe Shen Xiaochen could succeed. She didn’t take Shen Xiaochen’s antics seriously.

...

Saturday, five in the afternoon.

Su Wanxin drove to the venue of Shen Xiaochen’s birthday dinner party, which was held in a hotel owned by the Shen Family.

With the invitation card, she entered the banquet hall, only to find that quite a few people had shown up to support the event. She even saw Sheng Qian and Fu Shiyi among the guests.

There were many idol stars on the scene, as well as famous businessmen, and even a few familiar political figures made an appearance, giving the Shen Family plenty of face.
