Reborn Aristocrat: Return of the Vicious Heiress Chapter 1214

Chapter 1214 - The Conflict That Arose Because of the Change of Seats

Knowing that she was at fault, Ye Feiyu turned red and was at a momentary loss for words. She could not bring herself to apologize to Du Ruoxin even if the latter wanted her to. After all, she did not actually badmouth Du Ruoxin.

Unable to tolerate it any longer, Wen Xinya glanced at Du Ruoxin coldly and said, “We were just mentioning about you casually. There’s nothing to be sorry about. We weren’t badmouthing you, anyway. Miss Du, please don’t be so overbearing.”

Wen Xinya felt that Du Ruoxin gave off a mysterious vibe and her mood was also erratic. She often spoke and behaved in a self-righteous manner which made her look extremely unapproachable. As if she was above everyone else.

She was extremely difficult to deal with.

Du Ruo stared at Wen Xinya in an overbearing and hostile manner before sneering. “You’re very interesting!”

Her remark was ambiguous. Wen Xinya had no idea if she was praising her or just making a sarcastic remark.

Remaining calm and composed, Wen Xinya said coldly, “Thank you for the compliment, Miss Du.”

She could not tell what Du Ruoxin was exactly like, though she knew that the latter was no saint. Hence, she did not wish to continue getting involved with her.

Du Ruoxin scoffed before shifting her gaze onto Ye Feiyu. “Miss Ye, if you don’t mind, let’s exchange seats! You should know that I always like vying with others for second place. Hence, I obviously have to take the second seat this time.”

Du Ruoxin sounded extremely self-righteous and hostile.

Everyone who knew Du Ruoxin, also knew that she was second in her family and perhaps, that was the reason she felt a strong and bizarre sense of belonging to the number two. Ever since she was a child, she would vie to be second in everything she did.

Over time, everyone got used to her peculiar behavior which some even poked fun at.

Ye Feiyu naturally knew about Du Ruoxin’s strange habit too. However, she wouldn’t exchange seats with Du Ruoxin just because of that. “Miss Du, that’s not very appropriate, is it? The seats have been arranged beforehand by Boya Pavilion. It’d be unruly of us to just exchange seats without their consent.”

Du Ruoxin chuckled sarcastically and questioned, “Miss Ye, are you going to tell me to discuss with Boya Pavilion and gain their approval, after which you will follow the arrangements made by them?”

Ye Feiyu’s face grew petulant because those were indeed her intentions. If Du Ruoxin were to harp on it and continue to pester her, she would have no choice but to use Boya Pavilion as an excuse. However, now that Du Ruoxin had already exposed her, she could not bring herself to say it. Hence, she was stuck in a dilemma.

However, Du Ruoxin continued to push her limits. “Miss Ye, don’t bother using the Boya Pavilion to fool me. You’re just pushing the problem to them. Just tell me if you’re going to exchange seats with me or not.”

Wen Xinya began to show a tinge of anger. She nodded and interjected. “Miss Du, you don’t have to put Miss Ye in a spot. I believe you’re aware that the guests would have to follow the instructions of the host. Hence, we’ll have to gain the approval of the Boya Pavilion before exchanging seats. Please don’t act rashly lest you come off as rude.”

Wen Xinya’s words were stern yet reasonable. She immediately rescued Ye Feiyu from an awkward predicament and made Du Ruoxin look like a disrespectful guest while throwing the problem to Boya Pavilion.

Feeling rather frustrated and angry, she thought to herself, What is going on with this Du Ruoxin? She’s so mean and condescending. It’s as if everyone’s her enemy. As soon as she arrived, she attacked Xia Ruya before attacking me and Ye Feiyu. What is she trying to do?

Ye Feiyu held Wen Xinya’s hand gently in a bid to express her gratitude.

Du Ruoxin glanced at Wen Xinya with an ambiguous look in her eyes before turning to look at the owner of Boya Pavilion. “Are we allowed to exchange seats?”

There was already a strong tension in the air even before the gala officially commenced. The ladies were all gloating over the conflict as they craned their necks to watch the gossip.

Xia Ruya glanced at Wen Xinya and the other two ladies with an icy cold gaze in her eyes. The thought of Du Ruoxin publicly shaming her and exposing her disgraceful past made her feel thrilled to see the three of them going against each other.

Du Ruoxin is known as a lunatic to everyone! That’s why I didn’t retaliate when Du Ruoxin attacked me and embarrassed me just now. Du Ruoxin is the last person I would attack. This woman is vicious, foul-mouthed and relentless. She’s also a complete lunatic. Now that Wen Xinya has already offended her, she would definitely be given a hard time later.

Wen Xinya, you deserve this.

I’m one step closer to achieving my goal.

At this moment, the owner of Boya Pavilion stood up and said, “Although the guests should follow the instructions of the host, there has never been an exchange of seats during the Heiress’ Gala in the past years. Please try and come to an amicable agreement. Otherwise, I won’t let anyone off for causing disharmony.”

She sounded stern and commanding.

Wen Xinya stealthily pinched Ye Feiyu’s hand, afraid that Ye Feiyu would create unnecessary trouble.

She was not afraid of Du Ruoxin, but rather, she felt that there was no point in causing a scene because of a seat. Du Ruoxin may have nothing to lose, but the two of them couldn’t afford to be embarrassed. Besides, Ye Feiyu was not at a loss either. Hence, there was no harm in exchanging seats, especially since she did not have to strictly sit next to Ye Feiyu.

Having caught her hint, Ye Feiyu smiled and said coldly, “Since Madam has given us the permission, there’s no reason for me to disagree. Miss Du is known for vying to be second in everything she does.”

Ye Feiyu sounded reasonable.

After the conflict, Ye Feiyu and Du Ruoxin exchanged seats.

However, whether or not Du Ruoxin was really asking for an exchange of seats because she wanted to be second remained a mystery.

Du Ruoxin sat beside Wen Xinya and held her gaze before looking away again. It was as if the conflict never happened.

That put an end to the drama. Everyone was rather disappointed to see that it was all talk and no action.

The owner smiled and said, “If anyone else is unhappy with their seats, please communicate with me.”

Although the seats were arranged beforehand, the owner now made it known that an exchange was possible. Hence, everyone could not help but feel a little something.

After all, the Heiress’ Gala was the main point and they felt that there was no need to provoke the host.

Most importantly, not everyone was like Du Ruoxin who had the cheek to openly voice her demand for a seat exchange. Everyone had been taught to be well-mannered.
