Chapter 527: All Her Plans Have Been Foiled

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

At this moment, Wen Xinya entered the living room with a lady who was in her forties.

The lady looked rather ordinary and her hair was neatly tied back. Her face was slightly round in shape and she looked extremely kind and trustworthy. She also was presentable and carried herself well.

Upon sight of Old Mrs. Wen and Ning Shuqian, the lady immediately hung her head low and said, “Hello, Old Madam. Hello, Madam!”

An ominous feeling filled Ning Shuqian’s heart and she glared at Wen Xinya coldly. Just what is this Wen Xinya getting up to? Does she have the same intention as me?

At the thought of it, she smirked and thought to herself, If Wen Xinya has the same intention as me, she’s made the wrong move. Given how much the old woman detests Wen Xinya, she definitely wouldn’t hire the candidate that she suggests. As long as I say a few words, Wen Xinya’s plans are going to be destroyed and I’ll even be able to make the old woman get angry at her.

Wen Xinya stared at Ning Shuqian with an icy cold gaze.

Just like she had guessed, Ning Shuqian had indeed planned to plant her mole in the Wen Family.

In the previous lifetime, Xia Ruya did the first dance with Old Mr. Wen during the Wen Corporation annual gala and secured her footing in the Wen Family. She then moved back home, after which a few servants got sacked and chased out of the Wen Family.

That was when a new batch of servants entered the Wen Family home.

Ever since then, it had been more and more difficult for Wen Xinya to stay in the Wen Family and she would often end up upsetting her grandparents because of some trivial matters. She even had her intimate details exposed by the media whereas Xia Ruya continuously excelled.

In this lifetime, she definitely wouldn’t let Xia Ruya and Ning Shuqian get their wishes fulfilled since she knew how scheming they were.

Old Mrs. Wen stared at the lady with a frown before glowering at Wen Xinya. “Wen Xinya, what do you mean? Don’t think you can bring anyone home just because you’re the heiress.”

Not bothered by her words, Wen Xinya said smilingly, “Grandma, this is the new maid we’ve hired, Auntie Wu. She’s… ”

Realizing that Wen Xinya had the same intentions as her, Ning Shuqian sneered and interrupted. “Xinya, I’m not chiding you, but you’ve made a wrong decision this time. The Wen Family is a prestigious and wealthy family that’s well known in the nation. We can’t hire just any servant casually. It’s not something an underage girl like you can decide either. You should have discussed such a major matter with your grandmother. If the person whom you’ve hired is unreliable, it’s going to take a toll on everyone’s health, our family’s privacy, and reputation.”

Ning Shuqian was indirectly trying to say that Wen Xinya did not take Old Mrs. Wen seriously and chided her for taking matters into her own hands when she was only an underage teenager.

Upon hearing Ning Shuqian’s words, a sullen expression formed on Old Mrs. Wen’s face and she glared daggers at Wen Xinya. “Wen Xinya, you bastard child. Since when are you in any place to make decisions for the Wen Family? Who do you think you are? How dare you take matters into your own hands?”

The old man constantly defends Wen Xinya who almost caused my grandchild to be harmed. Not only did he not berate Wen Xinya, he even taught me and Haowen a lesson. How am I supposed to take it lying down? Now… she’s actually become so arrogant and even undermined me. How could I tolerate it?

Wen Xinya glanced at Ning Shuqian in contempt and said, “Grandma, you’re mistaken. It was Grandpa’s decision to hire Auntie Wu.”

Ning Shuqian glared at Wen Xinya and was filled with an ominous feeling upon sight of the smug smirk on her face. Just what is she trying to do?

Old Mrs. Wen quickly recovered from the shock and hollered at Wen Xinya. “Wen Xinya, you’re spouting nonsense. Your grandfather has never meddled with these trivial matters.”

Wen Xinya glanced at Old Mrs. Wen and Ning Shuqian before saying, “Auntie Wu is the daughter-in-law of Mother Zhou. Not only has she learned well from Mother Zhou, she has also outshone her in terms of soup-brewing. Grandpa has decided to hire her on the account of Mother Zhou. After hearing about the family problems that Mother Zhou is facing, such as her son becoming a vegetable after an accident, Grandpa decided to let Auntie Wu replace Mother Zhou in serving us.”

She had merely heard about the situation going on in Mother Zhou’s family when Mother Wang mentioned it casually. Previously, Mother Zhou had been taking good care of Wen Xinya and hence, she wanted to help Mother Zhou look for another means of living. Then, she happened to hear about Auntie Wu’s condition and hence, informed her grandfather about it, and even begged him to let Auntie Wu work for the Wen Family.

Old Mr. Wen agreed soon after hearing about the situation.

“In that case, Auntie Wu may stay! At most, she’ll take over what Mother Zhou used to do,” Old Mrs. Wen said, feeling much less exasperated after hearing the truth. Thinking about how much Mother Zhou had been serving the Wen Family well for over a decade, during which she barely made any mistakes, Old Mrs. Wen could not help but regret acting a little rashly.

Tears welled up in Auntie Wu’s eyes and gratitude was written all over her face. She dropped onto her knees and kowtowed to Old Mrs. Wen. “Thank you for your kindness and benevolence, Old Madam. You’ve given the Zhou Family a way out. I’ll definitely do my best to serve the Wen Family and repay your kindness.”

Pleased with how grateful Auntie Wu was, Old Mrs. Wen hurriedly helped her up and said, “Get up! We’ve always been kind to our servants. We won’t leave your family in the lurch. Just rest assured and work for us!”

A sullen expression formed on Ning Shuqian’s face and she said softly, “Mother, about the person I suggested…”

Old Mrs. Wen frowned and said, “Mother Zhou’s daughter-in-law knows our family better. Besides, she was hired by your father-in-law. She’s definitely a better choice.”

Trying to convince Old Mrs. Wen to hire the other servant too, Ning Shuqian said, “Mother, why don’t…”

Wen Xinya smirked slowly and stared at Ning Shuqian in disdain with raised brows.

Ning Shuqian could no longer complete her sentence.
