Fan Shenyuan noticed Manman, simply nodding slightly. Seeing this, he was not very surprised by Manman's arrival. Presumably, he had gotten wind of it early from Wen Shixuan.
But this was not the case for Manman, since she had never heard of any connection between Fan Shenyuan and the Wu Family. It seemed that Fan Shenyuan was invited not by Wen Fengmei but by the Wu Family. Even Wen Fengjie, who knew Fan Shenyuan, was unaware of his coming. This suggested that the guests invited by the Wu Family and the Wen Family were not informed of each other's invitations. For instance, the Jiang Yongzheng family was unaware of her, Manman, and her husband's attendance at the banquet.
