Perfect Secret Love novel Chapter 2231

"President!"

Before Ye Wanwan could think about it more deeply, Third Elder pushed the door open and entered.

"What is it?" Ye Wanwan turned to Third Elder.

"President, there's an old man here asking to see you by name," Third Elder replied.

"By name?" Ye Wanwan was startled. Which name and which surname?

"He said he wants to see the old president's granddaughter, Worriless Nie." Third Elder appeared to have guessed what Ye Wanwan was thinking.

"Got it. Bring him inside," Ye Wanwan agreed with a nod.

...

A moment later, an elderly man walked into the office and examined Ye Wanwan for a long while.

"Leave," Ye Wanwan said to Big Dipper and Third Elder.

They nodded and walked out of the office, closing the door behind them.

"Are you... really the old president's granddaughter, Worriless Nie?" the elderly man inquired with a hint of misgiving.

"The genuine one," Ye Wanwan answered.

"As they say, a girl changes eighteen times between childhood and womanhood... You're different than before." The elderly man sighed. "May I sit down?"

"Sit," Ye Wanwan said.

The elderly man sat down on a chair before asking, "Worriless, do you still remember me?"

"May I ask who you are?" Ye Wanwan wrinkled her brows. She really didn't have any recollection of this elderly man.

"Grandpa...?" Ye Wanwan looked at Wang Lai. "Tell me."

"Back then, the new president said you killed the old president... but actually, that's not the case!" Wang Lai looked emotional.

Ye Wanwan frowned deeply. "That's not the case?"

"Correct!" Wang Lai nodded with conviction. "Worriless, you did injure the old president, but the culprit who killed the old president was someone else!"

"Who?!" Ye Wanwan hastily pressed.

"I'm not certain about this part." Wang Lai looked sorrowful. "Back then, I was hiding in a secret spot and saw you running out then the old president followed you outside, covered in blood. I was really worried and wanted to dash toward him to check on his injuries... but suddenly, a mysterious person wearing a black robe appeared... It was him! He killed the old president!"

Ye Wanwan's expression changed. Could it be... that black-robed man from the Direct Line?!

"Later, the new president acceded to the position... I wondered if it was the new president who killed the old president in order to get promoted... I was scared, so I withdrew from the Martial Arts Union... Sigh, it's my fault for being too cowardly. If I had the courage to stand up and fight with the black-robed person back then, perhaps the old president wouldn't have died... It's all my fault!"
