Reborn Aristocrat: Return of the Vicious Heiress
chapter-1335

Si Yiyan did not doubt her guess. He looked at her ambiguously and said, “This matter is not as simple as you imagine it to be.”

Killing someone without staining their own hands—

was what the Korean-Chinese Alliance was good at!

Manipulating someone else into killing their target—

was the Korean-Chinese Alliance’s forte!

That was the Korean-Chinese Alliance’s rule for survival, and also the reason for their fearsomeness.

The look of uneasiness on Si Yiyan’s face made her hold her breath. “You’re right, this matter is not as simple as it seems to be on the surface. The exhibition today was very grand and, due to the fact that my mother’s designs have given us plenty of publicity, most of the guests are influential and prestigious. If I didn’t have a sharp sense of danger and given everyone a timely warning, the consequences would have been dire.”

The broken bits of the chandelier would have injured plenty of innocent guests too. The accident would then be blown out of proportion and more and more people would focus their attention on the matter. That would then make it easier for the identity of the culprit to be exposed. No one would dare to take the risk at all.

Not to mention, they were the highly secretive Korean-Chinese Alliance.

The execution of the plan did not fit the usual style of the Korean-Chinese Alliance. Hence, they were certain that there was something more to it.

Si Yiyan pressed his thin lips closely together and said coldly, “Your analysis is right, but it’s not multi-faceted. On the surface, it may seem contrary to the way that the Korean-Chinese Alliance usually handle matters, but as usual, their style of executing their plan is very subjective and dependent on how you perceive it.”

Wen Xinya had finally realized how dark and twisted humanity could be. Si Yiyan knew better than Wen Xinya how terrifying humans could be, especially since he dealt with issues that were on the edge of the law.

However, he was different from Wen Xinya.

The difference between them was the way they perceived matters.

“They’re hiding in the dark and manipulating others into killing on their behalf. Even if the truth gets exposed, they wouldn’t be implicated,” said Wen Xinya, who suddenly felt cold, perhaps because of the ice pack.

This time, the Korean-Chinese Alliance had pulled an identical move as they did in the past.

She was suddenly reminded of Shen Mengting, who had been used thoroughly by the Korean-Chinese Alliance, and at last, ended up dying.

Si Yiyan held her clammy hand and said, “Xinya, you definitely know who the Korean-Chinese Alliance can use to kill you!”

Wen Xinya had never doubted it. She was only in disbelief!

Wen Xinya took a deep breath and said calmly, “It must be Wen Haowen, isn’t it?”

Actually, she had long guessed that they would one day face each other under such circumstances. However, she found it unbelievable because she felt that even a monster would not hurt its own children. Even though she had expected it, she still could not quite come to terms with it now that it had happened.

Si Yiyan said, “Xinya, you’re no longer that vulnerable Miss Wen who could be easily manipulated by others. Within the past six years, you did so much for the Wen Family and brought plenty of profits for the Wen Corporation. Wen Haowen’s achievements in the past 20 years can’t compare to yours at all and everyone can see that for themselves. Everyone is well aware of who will be in charge of the Wen Family in the future.”

Wen Xinya knew that that was Wen Haowen’s reason for trying to kill her.

Wen Haowen had been laying low and waiting for the entertainment city project to be completed so that the Wen Corporation could belong to him. However, Wen Xinya’s incredible talent in jewelry design made him feel threatened and compelled him to do something about it. He was well aware that her position in the Wen Corporation would be unmovable once the Wen Corporation allowed her to establish her own brand.

Si Yiyan continued, “The Korean-Chinese Alliance realized that too. That’s why they manipulated Wen Haowen secretly and assisted him in devising this scheme. After all… the more influence you have in the Wen Corporation, the more reputable you will be. That would be disadvantageous for the Korean-Chinese Alliance. Besides… you’re Old Mr. Mo’s granddaughter and hence, they wanted to kill you for the very same reason that they killed your mother.”

Si Yiyan could not help but feel morose after thinking about everything that happened. An icy cold gaze formed in his eyes.

Wen Xinya slowly closed her eyes and said, “The Korean-Chinese Alliance doesn’t care about how many innocent lives would be harmed because of the chandelier incident because the matter is extremely serious and would greatly affect the Wen Corporation’s reputation. Losing their jewelry design prodigy would also be a huge blow to the Wen Corporation and the damage would be immeasurable.

“At this point… the Wen Corporation would then focus all of their hopes onto the entertainment city project and do their best to complete it as soon as possible. The Korean-Chinese Alliance would then be able to take advantage of the situation and give the Wen Corporation a huge attack. At last, the Wen Corporation would have no choice but to fall into the trap.”

That was the real agenda of the Korean-Chinese Alliance. The lives of humans actually meant so little to them. How daunting!

Si Yiyan said, “Xinya, you’re in a very dangerous predicament now. I’ll send someone to protect you in secret. You must take Liu Yanhua along with you wherever you go. Only then can I have peace of mind!”

Given the usual character of the Korean-Chinese Alliance, they definitely wouldn’t allow there to be unnecessary trouble since they had reached the critical period of the entertainment city project. Wen Xinya’s presence would pose a threat to Wen Haowen and the Korean-Chinese Alliance.

Si Yiyan was certain that the Korean-Chinese Alliance had a backup plan. Although Liu Yanhua was Wen Xinya’s personal secretary, she rarely took her along with her. He could no longer turn a blind eye to them.

Well aware of the consequences, Wen Xinya nodded and said, “Got it.”

Si Yiyan finally smiled. “Don’t worry too much. A dangerous accident may have happened during the exhibition, but you didn’t get hurt, so we’ve still achieved our agenda. However, the Korean-Chinese Alliance wouldn’t dare to act audaciously for the time being.”

He had made careful arrangements because one could never be too careful.

Wen Xinya could not help but burst into laughter.

He should be the one who stops worrying! He was so much tenser than I was.

A murderous gaze formed in Si Yiyan’s eyes. He must make the culprit pay the price!
