Reborn Aristocrat: Return of the Vicious Heiress Chapter 1750

Chapter 1761 - This Is Xia Ruya's True Motive

Wen Xinya attended Old Mr. Xiao’s birthday banquet as Bella. The banquet had not yet started when Old Mr. Xiao collapsed, and before he was fully recovered, he had already rushed off with Xiao Zhiyuan, leaving behind a hall full of guests.

Very quickly, news of Xiao Chengyu’s car accident spread across the banquet hall. Everyone was shocked.

With this tragedy befalling the Xiao Family, there was no longer any point in continuing the banquet. The guests started making their way home.

Wen Xinya had Liu Yanhua check into the details of Xiao Chengyu’s car accident.

She soon had the information.

“News just arrived from the hospital that the emergency rescue failed and Xiao Chengyu has died from the car accident. Old Mr. Xiao couldn’t bear the news and collapsed on the spot. He is now receiving treatment and Xiao Zhiyuan is still at the hospital standing by.”

News of Xiao Chengyu’s death was being locked down by the Xiao Family.

But there was no way they could keep such a matter secret for long. The press would probably be reporting on this by tomorrow morning.

Wen Xinya shivered all over. “Chengyu… is dead!”

Wen Xinya couldn’t help recalling when she met Xiao Chengyu for the first time at Zhou Tianyu’s birthday. At that time, Xiao Chengyu had an air of extreme arrogance, and because of Xia Ruya’s influence, they had not seen eye to eye.

Thereafter, the Xiao Family suffered a major blow due to Xiao Zhiyuan’s scandal. Once, Grandpa brought her to the golf course and they had happened to run into Old Mr. Xiao and Xiao Chengyu. At that time, Xiao Chengyu had behaved in an extremely prickly and combative manner.

After so many years, that brash and immature Xiao Chengyu had turned into a capable and astute young man. Wen Xinya did feel some admiration for his change.

She never imagined…

Liu Yanhua said, “I heard that he was already beyond hope by the time he arrived at the hospital.”

Liu Yanhua was somewhat regretful over Xiao Chengyu’s death but didn’t think too much of it.

Wen Xinya’s mind raced on. “Did you check into the details of the car accident?”

She recalled that in her previous life, the Xiao Family had been fighting over their inheritance.

Unfortunately, she had spent her previous life in a daze and was not too clear over what happened then. She could only vaguely recall Xiao Chengyu and Chu Jingnan being in conflict, and then Xiao Chengyu had ended up being paralyzed after a car accident.

In her previous life, Xiao Chengyu had ended up paralyzed.

In this life, Xiao Chengyu died in the crash itself.

Indeed, there were many things that were completely different.

Liu Yanhua said, “I already checked. Xiao Chengyu collided with another car when rushing over to the banquet. We found out that the other driver was Ning Yuya, and she also died at the hospital.”

During this period, Wen Xinya had Liu Yanhua investigate Ning Yuya and she could more or less guess there must be something going on there. But she never imagined that things would end up being linked to Xiao Chengyu’s death.

Wen Xinya said coldly, “Ning Yuya! So this is Xia Ruya’s true motive.”

Xia Ruya was making her move against the Xiao Family.

After Ning Shuqian’s death, Xia Ruya plotted just to make one final use of Ning Yuya.

She poured so much money and efforts into Ning Yuya, with the final goal of taking her life.

Si Yiyan was right. Ning Yuya was just an insignificant pawn in Xia Ruya’s grand scheme.

Xia Ruya’s vicious and ruthless heart was totally spine-chilling.

Even Liu Yanhua had something to say about that. “Xia Ruya is such a venomous creature. I can’t help shuddering.”

Liu Yanhua had known Ning Shuqian and Ning Yuya when they were with the Wen Family. She could hardly imagine how Xia Ruya could squander their lives just like that.

Wen Xinya was extremely guarded against Xia Ruya. “Ning Yuya’s death is not worth my tears. The one to be pitied is Xiao Chengyu.”

Xiao Chengyu had lost his life just because of Xia Ruya and Chu Jingnan’s greedy desires and the Korean-Chinese Alliance’s scheming plots. How was this any different from Yang Ziyu’s death?”

She couldn’t resist giving a bitter smile.

Many things had completely changed after her rebirth, so she no longer relied on the memories of her previous life.

In her previous life, Chu Jingnan made use of her to worm his way into upper society and established many important connections, so that he could leverage upon them to fight for the Xiao Family business when he reunited with them.

In this life, she had very early on exposed Chu Jingnan’s identity as an illegitimate son of the Xiao Family, and the family got rid of him by sending him overseas. Thereafter, T-K Group’s takeover plan failed, and Chu Jingnan disappeared after he was forced to resign. As a result, she had let down her guard.

She thought things in her previous life wouldn’t happen again in this life.

She never expected that Chu Jingnan would end up allying himself with Xia Ruya to take over the Xiao Corporation, just like in her previous life.

Now it appeared that even her former life Chu Jingnan and Xia Ruya were already linked to the Korean-Chinese Alliance very early on. A pity that she hadn’t realized this earth-shattering secret before her death.

“The police have already launched an investigation into the accident. Preliminary findings confirm that Ning Yuya was speeding wildly as she was high on drugs, and she ended up crashing into Xiao Chengyu’s car.”

Her tone was unconvinced.

Having worked for Wen Xinya for so many years and after the deaths of Yang Ziyu and Ning Shuqian, she now had a natural inclination to doubt deaths with no witness or evidence.

It was obvious that someone was behind Xiao Chengyu’s death. But no one could prove anything without any hard evidence.

Wen Xinya recomposed herself before asking in a low voice, “How is Old Mr. Xiao?”

She never cared much for the Xiao Family. Old Mr. Wen was a crafty fox while Xiao Zhiyuan was a scum of society. Xiao Chengyu was the only member of the family she had any regard for. However, as she thought of how the Xiao Family had fallen due to the machinations of the Korean-Chinese Alliance, and how the Wen Family was also a target—she couldn’t help feeling sad for the Xiao Family.

She felt quite sympathetic toward the Xiao Family when she imagined how painful it must be for an elder to have to bury his own descendant.

Liu Yanhua said, “His condition is still unknown. I reckon things are not looking good.”

Old Mr. Xiao’s health was pretty good, but he was already 80 years old. No one knew if he would be able to pull through after receiving that heartbreaking news.

Wen Xinya couldn’t help sighing. “It looks like the Xiao Family has lost Xiao Chengyu. An inevitable turmoil will ensue.”

Old Mr. Xiao was already of advanced age and Xiao Zhiyuan was unable to handle the Xiao Corporation’s board of directors and shareholders all by himself. Xiao Chengyu’s death would be a major blow to the corporation.

Hatred rose in her heart as Wen Xinya thought about the Korean-Chinese Alliance, which was still hiding in the dark shadows. This alliance had made use of Ning Shuqian, Xia Ruya and T-K Group to create chaos within Country Z’s business world. Now, the Xiao Family had also been implicated.

Her only hope now was for Old Mr. Xiao to pull through.

At this moment, only Old Mr. Xiao was capable of holding down the fort for the Xiao Family.
