Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
There were less than 20 days to her homecoming party. Wen Xinya had only attended a handful of official banquet parties in her previous life, let alone a banquet involving the entire Wen Corporation, the media, and the upper class. She did not even hold one for her 18th adult ceremony.
She knew more than anyone how important this party was to her. This party marked the starting point of her life, and she would not allow any mistake to interfere with her strong return.
That is why she requested Grampy and Grandpa to find her some books regarding banquet etiquette.
At this moment, Mother He ran into the backyard mysteriously and whispered quietly in her ear. “Young Mistress, there are guests in the house. You have to be careful later on.”
Wen Xinya froze. The visitors were probably here to see her because of her kidnapping! Why did Mother He specifically ask her to be careful? “Who are them?”
“It’s your stepmother, stepsister, and that fake Mistress who crawled into the phoenix’s nest! Uncle Zhang said that they came here with bad intentions and let me inform you about their visit in advance so that you can prepare.” Mother He did not sound happy.
Wen Xinya’s face sank. It’s them, what are they up to this time? “Mother He, I understand. They will not dare to do anything in the Mo house.”
Mother He finally stopped worrying.
Wen Xinya walked into the living room for welcoming guests, where Uncle Zhang was hosting Ning Shuqian and company. Wen Xinya walked over quickly, pretending to be surprised. “Aunt Ning, Yuya, Xia Ruya, why are you guys here?”
“I heard from your Grandpa that you were kidnapped and suffered quite a shock from it, so I decided to come and see you.” She had only just found out that this wretch was so lucky that she escaped from getting a drug addiction. Resentment and hatred boiled in her veins.
Ning Shuqian looked over at Wen Xinya who was standing near the living room, wearing a light blue long dress. The pure and ethereal blue covered by a thin, white shawl looked just like the white clouds floating in the clear blue sky in Autumn, making her look extremely elegant. There was a yellow rosewood carved hairpin on her head, and she looked so quaint that she looked like a famous maiden transmigrated from the olden times.
Wen Xinya’s smile reached her eyes. “I’m fine, just a false alarm. I’m sorry to make Aunt Ning and company come on a trip especially just for me.”
“Stop spouting nonsense. If anything happens to you, I will naturally feel worried and come to see you.” Ning Shuqian suddenly realized that Wen Xinya had lost her vulgar and uncouth behaviors and had evolved into a true rich heiress. In just two months, she had changed dramatically, and this discovery clouded her vision.
“That’s right, when I first heard that sister had been kidnapped, I was so scared that I had nightmares for a few nights. Now that I see sister is fine, I feel relieved.” Wen Yuya happily walked to her side and linked arms with her, deep hatred hidden in her eyes. This b*tch is really fine, not injected with liquid drugs and not even injured. The hatred from the bottom of her heart was so deep and intense that it grew and spread like seaweeds in the ocean, emitting green and black toxins, promising to wrap around and kill anything in its path.
Xia Ruya quickly chimed in. “Aunt Ning and Yuya were both worried about you, and I felt uneasy too, so we arranged to come to visit you together.”
Wen Xinya revealed her arm, which was free from any marks, and led Ning Shuqian and company into the main living room.
It dawned on Ning Shuqian that the former small hall was not for hosting guests but for welcoming guests. Entering the small hall, guests had to wait for the owner to decide to see them or not.
