Song Lili's heart clenched.
"What are you trying to do..."
"Qing Luo, you might as well bind me instead of her. Isn't it me that you want? Why go through such a big circle and make such absurd demands?"
Song Lili's eyes widened in disbelief as she looked at Wen Nian…
"You can threaten me by holding my wife hostage, but when it comes to the military affairs of Country G and issues of war stance, I am powerless. The Cabinet has the authority, and without the agreement of the other ministers, I cannot fulfill the conditions you've outlined."
Wen Nian spoke very candidly,
"I value my wife, and I would trade my life for her safety without hesitation, but the ministers of country G's Cabinet will not necessarily let you manipulate them for the sake of a woman."
Song Lili furrowed her brows tightly. Did this Wen Nian… know what he was doing!
"Qing Luo, holding me hostage is much more useful than holding my wife."
