Reborn Aristocrat: Return of the Vicious Heiress Chapter 1188

Chapter 1188 - Fame

Just as expected, Wen Xinya’s “Fighting the East Wind” was all the rage, helping spread the rumors about her extraordinary talents in zither, chess, calligraphy, painting, lyrics writing and poetry. Rather than being known as a talented young lady, Wen Xinya was accused of being spoiled.

Later on, on the Capital University’s forum, talented men and women of Beihua University posted their reviews on Wen Xinya’s piece. From her finger agility to her rhythm, a few more experienced seniors kept nitpicking at her mistakes, claiming that Wen Xinya merely wanted to earn the title of a talented girl through the song “Fighting the East Wind” to her advantage, insulting Old Mr. Mo’s teachings.

Seeing all these, Wen Xinya just laughed. “Fighting the East Wind” was taught to her by Si Yiyan, and she only managed to attend around 10 days of lessons. She was caught up with military training and did not practice well enough. “Fighting the East Wind” was a famous song that had been passed down through many generations because of its well-known level of difficulty. No one in the world could reproduce the glory of this song. Even Grampy and Si Yiyan were not confident of playing it perfectly.

She was just a beginner. Her fingers were not as skilled and proficient, and she was not very fluent with the melody, causing the flow of the tune to be somewhat sluggish. Receiving such criticisms was a given.

However, in school, others’ opinions of her continued to pervade her life.

“Look, that’s Wen Xinya. I heard that after she became a student of Teacher Ji Shihan, she became very proud and did not come to school for a long time.”

“She is as arrogant as ever, how can she only come to school when she wants to and not come when she doesn’t feel like it? The school doesn’t even care about her. If this goes on, everyone will become like her, what will be the point of having a school!”

“Don’t be so sour over this. I heard that her talent in jewelry design got her accepted by Teacher Ji. She doesn’t even need to take all those basic courses.”

“Pfft, what bullshit jewelry design talent, she is only copying it. Teacher Ji Shihan accepted her as a student only because Teacher Ji Shihan used to be very close friends with her mother Mo Yunyao. Think about it, as friends, of course you have to take better care of your friend’s children.”

“I heard that Yan Menglu is in their class, Harbor City’s Yan Family’s little missus. Her jewelry design talent is well known amongst the upper social class of Harbor City. But even Yan Menglu isn’t as arrogant and showoff as Wen Xinya. It’s as if she needs to make sure everyone knows about her.”

“It’s just copying, and she’s the best at that. Think about it, recently that video spreading around Capital city, isn’t that the result of her copying?”

“HaHa! This is called karma. Capital University is a world-renowned university. To be able to study here means that everyone here is talented and skilled. Yet, she tries to rely on her copying skills to achieve fame. She should look at her own worth and try comparing herself with others.”

“After merely learning a few songs, she took them out to show that she is the granddaughter of Old Mr. Mo. She thought that just like that, she will attain the title of a talented young lady. She should take a look at her own reflection.”

Ye Feiyu heard their gossips and laughed. “They only know how to talk behind your back and think they are better than you. They gossip more than aunties and uncles.”

Wen Xinya replied, “Don’t bother about them, let them say what they want. Even if they say it a thousand times, ten thousand times, I will only ignore them. They just have nothing better to do than making themselves the jokes of this situation.”

Arguing with others would only make the issue worse and trap themselves in a sticky situation, causing more trouble. Why should she try so hard to please them? It would just give them more things to talk about and more gossips to spread. The best way to deal with rumors was to ignore them and face them positively.

Even though Ye Feiyu was angry, Wen Xinya was right and she could only suppress her anger. “I really don’t understand your thoughts. You are a student of Teacher Ji and you don’t even have to come to school. I haven’t seen you in school much previously, but ever since the rumors started, you come to school every day. Are you not afraid of running into problems?”

Wen Xinya smiled. “Problems will come. Even if you hide, you can’t run away from it. In this case, why should I hide? I am an upright person and I have never done anything bad, so why worry about them gossiping. Furthermore… If I hide, they will think I am afraid of them.”

She went in and out of campus openly, as she wanted to show these people that the rumors could not hurt her. She wanted to show herself proudly.

Ye Feiyu laughed. “That’s true. I really admire you. If anyone said this about me, I would not be able to control my anger and would go up and confront them.”

Ye Feiyu knew that since Wen Xinya returned to Wen Family, she had been through many obstacles. After this incident, while she was worried for her, she knew that she could handle it herself.

Wen Xinya said, “There is no need to hurt yourself because of rumors.”

In just one sentence, she sounded very wise.

Ye Feiyu laughed and gave Wen Xinya a thumbs up. “Even so, you cannot let the rumors get to you. Over time, even rumors can hurt people.”

Although the attitude of the wise towards rumors was as such, it was still possible for them to be hurt by them.

Wen Xinya spread her hands open. “Today’s incident is beyond my control. If I make a move, it will look like I am adding on to the flames and more rumors will surface. If I calmly ignore it, whatever others plan, they will surely reveal their own weakness.”

At this time, Xia Ruya was waiting for her to jump onto the bait. Such things about the human heart were the hardest to predict. As long as she stayed silent, this kind of rumors would not spread for long and would die down. If Xia Ruya really wanted to plot something against her, she needed to hurry and do it soon.

Ye Feiyu nodded. “However, be careful around these bitches. In Capital University, everyone is talented and skilled. I’m afraid that talented people might try to create trouble for you. Since you don’t need to go to school now, just try to avoid it for a few days.”

She had heard before that the vice president of the Guqin Society of Capital University was very proficient and skilled. After watching the video of Wen Xinya playing “Fighting the East Wind”, she suddenly had the desire to have a friendly match with Wen Xinya.

Wen Xinya understood what she meant. “Don’t worry, I can take care of it.”

Ye Feiyu’s reminder allowed Wen Xinya to guess at Xia Ruya’s upcoming schemes and calculations. She smiled coldly. Even when she did not know Xia Ruya’s intentions, she was never scared of her. Now that she knew, she was even less afraid.
