Chapter 1410: What Happened to Wen Xinya?

After Wen Xinya submitted her seven treasure jade necklace design to Teacher Ji, she received high praise from her. She was told that she had already reached the most important point in her jewelry design journey.

It had already been four years since she became a student of Teacher Ji. In these past four years, Teacher Ji had praised her for having great talent many times. However, it was the first time she actually received such validation for her designs.

Wen Xinya knew that she had fulfilled Teacher Ji’s expectations.

She was really happy to feel like she did her teacher proud.

After handing in the design for the Milan Jewelry Design Competition, Wen Xinya felt much more at ease. The heirloom sales strategy was in the midst of busy preparations, and the guest list was finally confirmed. The next thing for her to do was to sort out the five designs left behind by her late mother. Wen Xinya did not let anybody else touch those soulful and meaningful designs and sorted them out personally.

Creating designs that came from the soul and had deep meaning was an extremely complicated thing to do. It was not easy to showcase the feelings and elements of the designs perfectly. On many occasions, Wen Xinya would drag Si Yiyan, her Grampy’s proud disciple, into discussions with her.

Of course, the help she received from Si Yiyan was not for free… there was a price to pay.

As for the price, Wen Xinya was already rendered speechless long ago.

The moment Wen Xinya exited the Wen Corporation building, she saw Xu Zhenyu leaning on his car down in his military uniform.

When he saw her, Xu Zhenyu waved his hands at her and called out, “Xinya, let’s go for a ride.”

“Oh, Xu-er. You changed to a new car you rascal. This Range Rover looks amazing. It’s powerful and mighty which suits your Colonel rank.” Wen Xinya was really delighted to see Xu Zhenyu. After Xu Zhenyu rose in ranks to a colonel, he became extremely busy. He was always at the training grounds and barely contacted them.

A wide grin formed on Xu Zhenyu’s face as he chuckled. “Of course, just look at her. This Range Rover is the latest SUV. Her appearance and personality are both perfect! Cool, right?”

Men were always filled with love when it came to cars. Men who were poor would browse through car magazines while those who were rich would change their cars so often like their meals. Even a calm person like Si Yiyan could not avoid this habit.

As such, Xu Zhenyu could not wait to show off his new car and let the whole world know about it. It was plain as day how proud he was of his new car.

“I remember Range Rovers came from England. As a civil servant with a high position, did the army actually allow you to use such imported goods?” Wen Xinya could not stand looking at Xu Zhenyu acting all proud and mighty. It was simply too revolting for her, which was why she had the habit of pouring cold water on him whenever he started to brag.

Xu Zhenyu was triggered. “F*ck. Wen Xinya, can you not doubt my principle as a civil servant? Do you think I’ll do something that the military doesn’t allow?”

After all, he made it to colonel. If he could not fulfill his basic duty as a soldier, the old man in his family would definitely not let him off.

“But, as a civil servant, shouldn’t you support our local goods and promote the country’s economy? Is it really good for you to bring in imported goods so blatantly like this?” Wen Xinya tilted her head and gave him the most innocent and pure look she could muster.

Little brat, you should check your own worth before showing off in front of me.

F*ck—

Xu Zhenyu’s face darkened. Only this word was able to show the grievance he felt. “I’ve only just got this car and brought it here to take you out for a ride before I even warmed up the seats. Must you mock me like that?”

You rascal, must you be this mean!

Can we even chat happily now?

Can we even be good friends anymore?

Wen Xinya snorted and laughed out loud. “You were so proud, who should I mock if not you?”

Seeing the dark expression on Xu Zhenyu’s face, Wen Xinya secretly felt amazing.

Xu Zhenyu was annoyed. His face was sullen as he cried out, “F*ck, can you speak nicely? Is there even any meaning in mocking me? Do you become tall, rich and handsome by saying all these?”

“Hahahaha!” Wen Xinya could not hold back her laughter. This had already come Xu Zhenyu’s tagline. “I’m sorry, I am fair, rich and beautiful. I don’t want to be tall, rich and handsome!”

Xu Zhenyu could not control himself and kicked the tires of his precious car. He was still a leader of soldiers. He had fought in battles, went out for expeditions, was wounded and even bled. He was a great colonel who sold his life, yet he was unable to handle a woman. If this news were to spread, wouldn’t he lose all his brilliance?

Wen Xinya tried her best to hold back her laughter. Seeing his temper, she no longer wished to tease him any further. “Let’s go, didn’t you say we are going out for a ride? Do you plan on just standing here?”

Wen Xinya opened the door and hopped onto the car.

As expected of an SUV, the interior was huge and comfortable. No wonder Xu Zhenyu could not wait to bring it out for show the moment he got the car.

Xu Zhenyu let out a broad grin, showing all his pearly whites. It was simply too disgusting. “You are the first person to ride this car of mine, don’t you feel honored?”

Wen Xinya pouted and said, “Nope!”

Xu Zhenyu glared at Wen Xinya speechlessly. You are sitting in my beloved car and getting a free ride from me, can’t you say anything nice?

The car started the two of them continued to banter and chat.

Just then, Wen Xinya’s phone rang. “Hello, Uncle Zhang…”

The color drained from Wen Xinya’s face immediately and she was as pale as a ghost.

“Pa—” Her phone fell from her grasp. Wen Xinya’s eyes lost focus as she stared into space listlessly.

Xu Zhenyu turned his head towards her and was shocked. He asked immediately, “Wen Xinya… Wen Xinya! What happened, Wen Xinya? Who called you? Did something happen?”

It was the first time Xu Zhenyu had seen such a sullen expression on Wen Xinya’s face. Her face was drained of colors while her body shivered. He could not tell if it was out of fear or from the cold air outside. Her eyes were gray with despair.

It was as if she had her life force sucked out of her body.

“Xu Zhenyu…” Wen Xinya’s voice was terrifyingly hoarse, dry, soft, empty, confused and serious!
