Reborn Aristocrat: Return of the Vicious Heiress
chapter-1231

Of course, everyone soon began talking about Lin Yingxin. After all, she had openly challenged Wen Xinya to a friendly battle and now that she had lost to Wen Xinya, she would obviously be talked about.

“Previously, I thought that Lin Yingxin was impressive. Well, she’s pretty and elegant. However, I didn’t expect her to be so mediocre. She can’t be compared to the lady of talent at all.”

“The initial parts of her performance were not too bad, but her technique seemed to have become very messy towards the end and she has clearly deteriorated. I wonder how she even became the winner of the previous gala.”

“Back then, I heard some rumors about Lin Yingxin when she emerged as the winner during the previous gala. I used to think that they were just false news being spread by people who were jealous of her, but now, it seems that those rumors are true after all.”

“What rumors? Hurry and share them with us!”

Everyone expressed their interest in the rumors.

“Everyone knows that Lin Yingxin is a relative of the Ye Family. She used to be close to Ye Feiyu’s cousin, Ye Yunyao, who’s known to be a talented beauty of Capital city and she’s also nicknamed ‘Little Mo Yunyao’. Ever since the previous Heiress’ Gala that took place three years ago, rumors of Lin Yingxin sneakily checking up on the song that Yunyao was going to perform, and secretly practiced it at home. Later on during the gala, she performed before Ye Yunyao did and performed the song, ‘Snow In Spring’ which Ye Yunyao was supposed to be playing. Ye Yunyao suffered the huge blow of being betrayed by her close friend and ended up performing another song that she did not prepare herself for beforehand. She then lost to Lin Yingxin.”

“Heck, Lin Yingxin is so shameless. How could she use her friend to climb the social ladder?”

“I was just wondering how she managed to become the winner since she only has two talents. It turns out that she had made use of Ye Yunyao to climb her way up. I can’t believe such shameless and despicable people exist in this world.”

“Do you think she was also trying to make use of Wen Xinya’s status as Old Mr. Mo’s granddaughter to bring herself more reputation?”

There was plenty of gossip about Lin Yingxin and within a short period of time, all of Lin Yingxin’s true colors and dirty past were exposed. Clearly, there were no secrets in the Capital city. Hence, if one was afraid of others finding out about something that they had done, they should just not do it in the first place.

Lin Yingxin clenched her fists tightly, feeling as if someone was pulling the strings of her brain. She was suddenly drowned in her feelings of anxiety and a menacing look formed in her bloodshot eyes.

She suddenly leaped towards the two girls beside Xia Ruya, who had been talking about her, and barked. “Shut up, you lying and shameless bitches. I must rip your mouths apart today to teach you a lesson for spouting nonsense.”

The two girls did not expect that Lin Yingxin would pounce on them without considering her image and reputation. They immediately screamed in shock.

“Shameless bitches, what rights do you guys have to say that about me…” Lin Yingxin had long lost her rationality. She kicked the tables in front of them, causing the teacups, fruit trays and snacks to fall onto the ground.

Lin Yingxin’s unrestrained behavior gave everyone a huge shock. Although everyone began doubting her talent because she had lost to Wen Xinya, there were still many who believed that she wouldn’t betray a friend. After all, she was reputable, beautiful and elegant.

However, Lin Yingxin’s reaction was proof of her feeling angry and guilty.

At the same time, everyone was also in disdain of Lin Yingxin. After all, she was from a mediocre family and could not be compared to the wealthy families in Capital city. She had merely been criticized by others and yet, she had already lost control of her emotions and even began attacking everyone. What made her different from those delirious shrews who were uncouth and often berated others harshly?

At this moment, Du Ruoxin scoffed and said with a look of contempt, “She totally deserves it because she brought it all upon herself.”

Wen Xinya glanced at her, finding there to be hidden meanings in her words. “You seem to have expected Lin Yingxin to commit such a shocking act.”

What did she mean when she said that Lin Yingxin had brought it upon herself?

Actually, Wen Xinya was greatly taken aback by Lin Yingxin’s sudden outburst and she even found the matter to be rather peculiar. Lin Yingxin was best at hiding her true colors and definitely wouldn’t lose her temper and vent her frustrations on the spot, just because she had been criticized.

However, she had done exactly that, and it was as if she had been possessed by a demon.

Du Ruoxin sneered. “Why are you so shocked? She’s just having a taste of her own medicine.”

Wen Xinya suddenly looked at Lin Yingxin as everything that took place during the gala flashed through her mind like a movie.

Could it be…

She subconsciously glanced at Du Ruoxin while strange thoughts formed in her head.

Sensing her bizarre gaze, Du Ruoxin looked at her and sneered before glancing at Lin Yingxin.

Lin Yingxin was lying motionlessly on the ground and her body stiffened. She seemed to have suddenly realized what she had done and noticed the way that everyone was staring at her. It was as if they were looking at a lunatic.

She was completely bewildered. How could I have done something like that? She threw her head into her hands and shook her head continuously. “No, it wasn’t me. I didn’t do that. I wouldn’t have done that, no…”

She could not hide the fact that she had indeed lost control of her emotions. She was just trying to deceive herself and others.

Lin Yingxin scanned her surroundings to see that everyone was staring at her coldly with looks of disdain on their faces. She instantly realized that the reputation that she had painstakingly built over the years had been ruined…

Completely ruined…

It was all gone…

The thought of her reputation being destroyed ran through her head over and over again like a demon. The remaining bits of her rationality was destroyed and she seemed to have been taken over by her frustration and angst.

Why did I end up in such a state?

Oh right, it’s Xia Ruya. Xia Ruya was the one who lied to me and coerced me into working with her and battling Wen Xinya. She threatened me and demanded that I win over Wen Xinya. It’s her… she was the one who caused me to end up in such a plight.

She glowered at Xia Ruya with bloodshot eyes, her veins looking like red snakes that were intertwined around each other. She wished she could leap forth and bite Xia Ruya to death.
