Reborn Aristocrat: Return of the Vicious Heiress
chapter-1355

After Wen Haowen and Ning Shuqian spent a hefty amount of money on bribing the media agencies whom they had connections to, the controversial news around Wen Haowen slowly began to die down.

At the same time, the media began to release news of Wen Haowen actively supporting the heirloom sales strategy for the sake of remembering his deceased wife and showing his daughter some encouragement and support.

The news caused an uproar in the circle.

The recent news was ironic and a stark contrast to the previous news about Wen Haowen defending his second wife, Ning Shuqian, against his daughter and showing disrespect to his deceased wife, Mo Yunyao.

“The last sum of funds for the entertainment city project will be released three days from now. Once that happens, I’ll finally feel a sense of relief,” said Wen Haowen, who had been actively promoting the heirloom sales strategy, thus making it inappropriate for Old Mr. Wen to use any excuse to delay the project. Hence, Old Mr. Wen signed the approval of the funds.

Ning Shuqian’s eyes lit up with surprise and joy and she exclaimed, “Haowen, you’re really impressive!”

Once the last sum of funds was approved, the progress of the entertainment city project would no longer be restricted by the Wen Corporation and they would also be able to complete the development smoothly since they were no longer in the Wen Corporation’s control.

In that case, the Wen Corporation would no longer be able to restrict them and the entertainment city would become a terrifying monster that the Wen Corporation would fear. The alliance would then encroach and swallow the entire Wen Corporation.

“Since the last sum of funds is going to be released, we ought to complete the development as soon as possible, so as to give ourselves an advantage.”

Wen Haowen can’t wait for the project to be completed as soon as possible because he thinks that the entire Wen Family and their assets would belong to him once that happens.

How would he feel when he finds out that he has nothing to gain from the entertainment city project?

Ning Shuqian’s eyes glistened for a while before saying, “Haowen, what are you so worried about? The entertainment city project has already been developed to such a huge extent and we’re already in control now. It’s only a matter of time before we complete it.

“The most important thing to do now is to place our focus on the heirloom sales strategy. Now that you’ve already expressed your intention to support the sales strategy, the media might just cook up some nonsense if we were to let the entertainment city project affect the implementation of the sales strategy.”

The entertainment city project had already been put under limbo because of the uproar caused by the showcase of Mo Yunyao’s last masterpieces as well as the French Vogue International Jewelry Association’s attention. The entertainment city project could only proceed if everyone shifted their attention to the heirloom sales strategy.

After giving it some thought for a while, Wen Haowen agreed with Ning Shuqian. “You do make some sense. In that case, we’ll do that for now.”

This time, Wen Haowen had indeed gotten a great shock after the media speculated that he was the one who had harmed Wen Xinya. Although the matter had died down, he might be in trouble when it was revealed again.

Everyone was interested in gossip and watching a good show. However, if the reports about it were to surface time and time again, most people would begin to believe it to be true.

Ning Shuqian heaved a sigh of relief and frantically said, “Haowen, I heard that the French Vogue International Jewelry Association is planning to curate Mo Yunyao’s Puerile Phoenix and put it on display in the French Vogue International Museum. They’ve already sent their representatives to Capital city to discuss this matter with the Wen Family.”

There were various reasons for the halt of the entertainment city project which Ning Shuqian could not explain reasonably to Wen Haowen. Wen Haowen was highly suspicious and impatient when it came to reaping benefits. By then, he might not continue to let her manipulate him. Hence, she could not let Wen Haowen know about it because she still needed him to operate the entertainment city project.

Hence, she had no choice but to distract him with the heirloom sales strategy.

Wen Haowen widened his eyes in shock and he asked in astonishment, “Is that true?”

The Parisian Vogue Museum was a renowned museum in the world, which showcased the best luxury items. They had meticulously curated a plethora of world classics that dated back to almost a century ago.

The works of several luxury item creators in the world were displayed in the museum, even after their demise. It would be a great honor for one’s works to be curated by the museum, for it was akin to winning a Nobel Prize. Those who enjoyed the honor of having their works showcased were greatly envied by everyone else.

When Mo Yunyao was alive, she was shot to fame because of the honor. To everyone’s surprise, she still enjoyed the same honor even after her demise, thus continuing her legacy in the world of jewelry design.

She was forever an outstanding woman.

She was so outstanding and remarkable, that some would turn their jealousy towards her into hate.

Ning Shuqian naturally detested her too. She said bitterly, “Why would I lie to you? I heard that the French Vogue Jewelry Association has already communicated with the Wen Family a week ago. Your father and daughter have already found out. You’re the only one who was kept in the dark.”

Mo Yunyao would forever be a nightmare to Ning Shuqian. She initially thought that she was the winner because she had managed to snatch Wen Haowen away from Mo Yunyao, who ended up losing her life.

However, she did not expect that she was the real loser. She had painstakingly snatched Wen Haowen away, only to realize that he was a heartless and lecherous imbecile.

She initially thought that Mo Yunyao’s glory would die together with her and be buried for good. She didn’t expect her glory to live on and take the world by storm, even after her death.

She had no choice but to admit that she truly detested Mo Yunyao out of jealousy.

It was the same kind of jealousy that Xia Ruya harbored towards Wen Xinya.

Wen Haowen flew into a rage and said, “The old man and Wen Xinya don’t respect me at all.”

Ning Shuqian suppressed her anger and resentment. “To my knowledge, the representatives have already arrived in Capital city and are currently staying in the Gu Family’s luxurious hotel. We can take this chance to blow up the matter about the heirloom sales strategy so as to make it successful.”

The more people knew about the French Vogue Jewelry Association, the more attention there would be on the heirloom sales strategy. Then, no one would really notice the entertainment city project.

She had to follow that man’s instructions, regardless of how much she detested Mo Yunyao.

Wen Haowen had a sullen and menacing expression on his face. At the same time, he also looked really murderous.
