Chapter 1353 - Born to Be Enemies (1/2)
Old Mr. Wen’s emotions were placated by Wen Xinya. Regardless of what Wen Haowen was plotting against the Wen Family and how he was trying to harm the interests of the Wen Corporation, Old Mr. Wen would not spare him anymore.
He was most worried about Wen Xinya because the Korean-Chinese Alliance had already begun attempting to kill Wen Xinya and he was certain that there would be more steps to their plan. Wen Xinya was in an extremely dangerous situation.
Fortunately, Old Mr. Mo’s reputation managed to give her some protection.
Old Mr. Wen changed the subject by saying, “Xinya, I just spoke to the chairman of the French Vogue International Jewelry Association over the phone and they’d like to have the right to put Puerile Phoenix on display forever. They’ve already sent their representatives over to Capital city to handle this matter.”
Honestly speaking, Old Mr. Wen was rather astonished when he received the call. However, he had been through plenty of major events in his life and hence, got a grip on himself soon enough.
He knew that Mo Yunyao had single-handedly designed a set of jewelry named “The Spirit Of The Dragon” during the Parisian Vogue International Jewelry Design Competition, which then got curated by the French Vogue Museum. It was then put on display and shot Mo Yunyao to fame.
Hence, that was the holy grail for all jewelry designers.
After hearing his words, Wen Xinya asked in shock, “Grandpa, what do you think of this?”
Wen Xinya was extremely elated because that meant that her mother’s masterpieces had already achieved world fame and hence, it would be easier for her to plot against the Korean-Chinese Alliance.
Old Mr. Wen said, “This matter has something to do with the heirloom sales strategy. Since I’ve handed the sales project to you, you shall be in charge of making decisions.”
Previously, during the jewelry design exhibition, Puerile Phoenix was the last piece of work that Mo Yunyao had designed especially for her daughter. That meant that Puerile Phoenix belonged to Wen Xinya and that she had the right to make the decision.
Besides, the Wen Corporation would not be too affected regardless of the decision she made.
Wen Xinya hesitated for a moment before answering with a nod, “Got it, Grandpa.”
If she were to concede to the French Vogue International Jewelry Association, she would be adding on to her mother’s legacy in the world of jewelry design. The Wen Corporation would definitely stand to gain more benefits too.
Of course, if she turned them down, the Wen Corporation wouldn’t suffer any losses as well. After all, the heirloom sales strategy was already very profitable for the Wen Corporation.
After giving it some careful thought, Wen Xinya began to understand everything. Although the matter was rather grave and serious, there was no conflict with the Wen Corporation’s interests. That was probably the reason Old Mr. Wen allowed her to take charge.
At this moment, Si Yiyan entered the living room with a tray of fruits. Upon sight of Old Mr. Wen, he greeted cordially. “Hello, Old Mr. Wen!”
The colorful fruits which included papayas, apples, pomelos, dates and several other types of fruits, formed a beautiful color combination.
Old Mr. Wen pulled a long face and questioned, “Mr. Si, what are you doing in the Mo Family home?”
Actually, Old Mr. Wen admired Si Yiyan for his strong abilities deep down. However, he somehow subconsciously kept his guard up and got all cautious whenever he saw Si Yiyan.
At this point, Old Mr. Wen had no idea that he was actually trying to defend and protect Wen Xinya.
By the time he understood the rationale, Si Yiyan would have already stolen his precious granddaughter away from him.
By then, he would truly be flabbergasted.
It turns out, some people were destined to be enemies.
For example, mothers and their daughters-in-law.
