Reborn Aristocrat: Return of the Vicious Heiress
chapter-1337

Old Mr. Mo stared at her with a mirthless smirk before subtly glancing at Si Yiyan and Old Mr. Wen. He was well aware of what Wen Xinya as thinking. She was undoubtedly just worried that the two of them would get into a conflict.

Si Yiyan was not to be messed with and he was so proud and prideful that he barely showed anyone respect. Although Old Mr. Wen was reputable and esteemed in the world of business, he was on par with Si Yiyan. It was an issue of competency, not age. Hence, Si Yiyan had never been wary of Old Mr. Wen even though he was Wen Xinya’s paternal grandfather.

Old Mr. Wen used to be a tyrant in the world of business and had gotten used to being arrogant and uncompromising. Even though he was already old in his years, he still did not change. Wen Xinya was stuck between the love of her life and her biological grandfather. Hence, she was put in a spot because of the indirect verbal attacks that they were launching on each other.

However, Wen Xinya was worrying for nothing.

Old Mr. Wen and Si Yiyan were both sensible enough to know their limits.

Hence, Old Mr. Mo did not plan to intervene.

After all, he was rather optimistic and pleased to see Old Mr. Wen going against Si Yiyan because he did not like the idea of Si Yiyan snatching away the granddaughter whom he had put effort into teaching.

Just as Wen Xinya was lamenting about Old Mr. Mo’s refusal to help her and pondering about how she should resolve the tension between them, Zhou Tianyu and the rest of her friends scurried towards them and greeted Old Mr. Wen and Old Mr. Mo.

Upon sight of her friends, Wen Xinya said, “Didn’t I tell you guys that I had merely sprained my ankle? I don’t even have to be hospitalized. Why are you guys here at such a late hour? Aren’t you tired at all?”

Deep down, Wen Xinya was actually pleased with their timely arrival!

They had saved the day!

She truly loved them!

Noticing how pale and haggard Wen Xinya was, Zhou Tianyu said worriedly, “It was really terrifying when the chandelier fell from the ceiling just now. We were really worried, so we came to visit you.”

It was pitch dark around the runway when the chandelier fell from the ceiling. Chaos broke out and things spiraled out of control. They were being pushed around by the crowd and could not take care of Wen Xinya. They dared not imagine how petrified Wen Xinya must have been.

Gu Junling stood beside Zhou Tianyu and placed a hand on her shoulder. “Tianyu, Xuanxuan, and Feiyu all thought that you… they almost broke down in despair. Ruoruo fainted from crying right on the spot. Fortunately, it was just a false alarm.”

The incident happened way too suddenly, making them feel extremely helpless and terrified. Gu Junling shot Si Yiyan a subtle glance and reckoned that he must have been the one who defended Wen Xinya and rescued her!

He was truly strong and powerful.

Si Yiyan was able to brave through the wind and storm and conquer the world for the woman he loved.

Gu Junling suddenly felt a strong sense of certainty.

Extremely touched, Wen Xinya said, “The incident happened too abruptly, so I couldn’t inform you guys in time. Sorry to have made you guys worried about me.”

Noticing how red Zhou Tianyu’s, Xu Tongxuan’s and Ye Feiyu’s eyes were, she could tell that they had just cried miserably. Hence, she felt a little guilty.

Xu Tongxuan held onto Wen Xinya’s hand while sobbing. “I knew you would be alright.”

When the chandelier came crashing down loudly, the deafening sounds seemed to have collided with her heart. She had never been so petrified before, and the reason for her fear was that her best friend was standing right below the chandelier.

Back then, she constantly prayed that Wen Xinya would definitely be alright.

Wen Xinya had to stay alive in order to destroy Ning Shuqian and Xia Ruya.

Ye Feiyu held onto Wen Xinya’s hand and said in a hoarse voice, “Thankfully you’re fine. Otherwise, there will be one less jewelry designer in this world from now on and that would be a huge loss to the world. If that happens, who’s going to design my jewelry!?!”

She was standing right beside the runway and looking up at the outstanding Wen Xinya who was standing on the runway, absolutely awed by her glory and poise. Yet, something like that happened.

Back then, she was completely dumbfounded and her mind went blank when she was caught in the human stampede.

Fortunately… Wen Xinya was alright.

What kind of a friend am I?

Is she trying to say that I would definitely survive because I’m an evil soul?

Stop joking. I’m clearly a morally upright youth.

Besides, it may have been a false alarm, but it was still frightening!

Sis Ye, what do mean no one will design your jewelry if I were to die?

Ah~

I don’t love her anymore!

Ling Qingxuan snorted with laughter and said, “Xinya, you seem to always be able to escape all danger and remain unscathed after every ordeal you face. You’re just like the female lead in stories who never dies!”

He was extremely amused by his own words.

Actually, he was rather calm when the chandelier fell from the ceiling and the only thing that went through his mind was “Oh dear, not again!”

He felt that Wen Xinya was the daughter of God who could often escape ordeals unscathed.

Han Mofeng and Ling Qingxuan were holding each other’s shoulders. Han Mofeng said, “Don’t tell me, you have to embark on a journey to the West like Tripita and go through 81 obstacles before you can attain nirvana!”

Han Mofeng and Ling Qingxuan then began laughing uncontrollably.

Han Mofeng had also gotten a great fright when the incident happened, so much that he broke out into cold sweat. Han Mofeng thought to himself, Xu-er lost for a valid reason. It takes affinity to fall in love. Heaven is the one who decides affinity. Hence, it cannot be forced.

Otherwise, why would Ninth Si always be the one to stay by Xinya’s side whenever she meets with a mishap?

Xu-er loves Xinya just as much as Ninth Si does.

However, it was all written in the books of fate.

“You guys…” Wen Xinya gritted her teeth angrily and thought to herself, I had a hard time surviving the near-death experience. Why are they gloating now?

I don’t want to be like female leads.

Journey to the West… Loony, could you be a little more mature?

Wen Xinya was speechless.
