Reborn Aristocrat: Return of the Vicious Heiress Chapter 17

Chapter 17 - I Will Be Back, There Are Plenty of Opportunities

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

Back in the room, Mother Wang was packing her stuff.

As Wen Xinya looked at the empty cupboards, it felt like her heart had been emptied as well. She felt lost!

Mother Wang saw the dejected Miss Wen who was sitting on the bed. She felt sorry for her. She was the late Madam’s only daughter, who led a wandering life on the streets for 15 years. Now that she’s finally back to the Wen Family she was immediately being sent away.

Mother Wang recalled the initial moments when Miss Wen had just returned, she was like a wounded hedgehog — impatient and helpless, always guarding against everyone in the Wen Family. Old Madam Wen only cared about Miss Ruya and neglected Miss Xinya. Ning Shuqian looked like an easy-going person but was scheming at heart. Wen Yuya and her were always making things difficult for Wen Xinya. Old Mr. Wen was also cold towards her.

That day in the backyard, she saw that it was Miss Ruya who accidentally fell into the lake, but she had insisted that it was Miss Xinya who pushed her. With a few servants supporting Miss Ruya’s words, Old Mr. Wen, Old Madam Wen, and Master Wen Haowen concluded it was Miss Xinya’s fault and gave her a good lecture.

“Miss Xinya, your things are all packed.”

Drying her tears, Wen Xinya slowly recovered a clear vision. She saw there were two pieces of clothing and some jewelry in the cupboard. She smirked. “I do not have many belongings anyway, I’ll bring all the remaining items! Otherwise, I might have to trouble Grampy to buy more things for me if there’s anything missing.”

Mother Wang felt teary. “My pitiful Miss Xinya, late Madam will be watching you from the heavens. She’ll bless you to have a good life,” she said, feeling sorry for her.

Wen Xinya recovered from her lost state. She said, “Yes, that’s right! Mother is watching me from heaven…” She must have seen the pain and suffering I had gone through, hence giving me a chance to rebirth so that I can control my own destiny.

Mother Wang finished packing. Wen Xinya stared at the empty room. There wasn’t anything left that belonged to her, as if she was just a guest who had rented the room. She changed her emotion and spoke lightly into the air: I will be back!

Yes, she will be back!

Mother Wang ordered the servants to carry Wen Xinya’s luggage to the living room. Ning Shuqian and Wen Yuya were there sitting on the sofa watching the busy servants carrying her luggage and stuff. They were secretly happy in their hearts.

Wen Yuya asked in an elated tone, “Yo Sister, where are you going? Why the luggage and parcels?”

Wen Xinya ignored her.

Wen Yuya continued rubbing salt on the wound. “You’ve just returned to the Wen Family for a few days and now you’re leaving with your luggage. Did Grandpa chase you out?”

At this moment, Old Mr. Wen was standing at the stairway on the second floor. He was so mad that it caused pain to his chest when he saw how the true Wen Family’s daughter was being bullied by a lowly adopted daughter, and yet she had to suffer in silence.

The nice easy-going daughter-in-law who was sitting on the sofa also looked jubilant, as if she was gloating over Wen Xinya’s misfortune. “Did you really wish for Xinya to be driven out of the Wen Family by me?”

Hearing a deep and furious voice, Ning Shuqian and Wen Yuya felt a chill. They looked up and saw Old Mr. Wen standing at the stairways, hearing everything Wen Yuya said earlier.

Ning Shuqian could feel the authority in his eyes from afar, coupled with anger and coldness. Old Mr. Wen was known for his influence and decisiveness during his younger days. This power of authority had not reduced at all years after he had left the business world.

Ning Shuqian turned pale and quickly reacted, “Father, that’s not what Yuya meant. She’s just an innocent and outspoken child. She might have said the wrong things. Please don’t hold it against her.”

Wen Yuya froze with fear. “Grandpa, I…”

Old Mr. Wen softened slightly. He said, “I am sorry to disappoint the two of you. Xinya’s Grampy called and asked me to bring her over so that she can stay with him for a while. She will return.”

Ning Shuqian was puzzled. Why wasn’t she being sent abroad? Why did the plan change to her staying in the Mo Family?

Ning Shuqian tried to explain. “Father…”

Old Mr. Wen had a ferocious look in his eyes. “When Xinya is away, if you create any more trouble, you will not get away with it. Either I or someone else will take care of you.”

Ning Shuqian shivered at the thought of how clear-minded Old Mr. Wen was. There were almost no evil intentions that could escape his eyes. She turned and looked at Wen Xinya, who was grinning with numbness. She had almost forgotten Wen Xinya had a connection with Old Mr. Mo.

Ning Shuqian suddenly regretted making the suggestion to let Wen Xinya go abroad. She had unintentionally created an excuse for her to go to the Mo Family. Old Mr. Mo held high-status in the literary world and everyone feared and respected him. Going to the Mo Family would be like adding wings to Wen Xinya’s back.

She started panicking just at the thought of it.

But she also remembered Old Mr. Mo had a cold temperament. When Ruya entered the Wen Family years ago, he didn’t treat her very well. They only met during special occasions and did not have a close relationship. All these years Ruya didn’t receive any benefits from the Mo Family.

In comparison, Wen Xinya was even more unrefined. It’s unlikely Old Mr. Mo would be nice to her, and she too wouldn’t receive any benefits from the Mo Family.

Old Mr. Wen looked at Wen Yuya sharply. “Whatever the Wen Family has given to you, we can also take it back easily. If that ever happens, even your stepfather wouldn’t be able to protect you.”

He emphasized the word “stepfather” with purpose, signaling her to take his words as a severe warning.

Wen Yuya turned pale with fear. She clenched her fists hard. Hatred filled her eyes. It was all that bitch, Wen Xinya’s fault. Otherwise, Grandpa wouldn’t treat her badly.

Wen Xinya, watch and see. I will not let you die in peace!

Old Mr. Wen knew what they were thinking. Xinya was away for 15 years and had an unglamorous past. She had no relationship with the Wen Family. Moreover, Old Madam Wen and Wen Haowen didn’t like her. Once they succeeded in making the Wen Family detest Xinya, they would be the rightful heirs to the Wen Family’s wealth.

Xinya’s return had triggered Ning Shuqian and her daughter’s greed! And it created an opportunity for them to act in accordance with the greed within.

Old Mr. Wen stomped out of the living room furiously.

Wen Xinya slowly walked towards Ning Shuqian and stood in front of her. She bent down and whispered into her ear, “Hold on, I will be back! There are… plenty of opportunities!”

Wen Xinya’s light breathing landed on her ears. It felt itchy and irritating, as if a caterpillar was crawling on her ears. Ning Shuqian said with a forced smile, “Xinya, I don’t understand what you mean.”

Wen Xinya came face to face with her expressionless. Her lengthy fingers pointed at her chest and said, “It doesn’t matter. As long as your heart understands.”

Wen Xinya’s action caused Ning Shuqian’s heart to race— Lub-dub, Lub-dub . When she finally started calming herself down, Wen Xinya had already walked out of the Wen Mansion.
