Wen Xinya enjoyed the delicious seafood and was satisfied. She thought the food was too much for them to finish, but with the help of Si Yiyan, they managed to finish most of them.
After a sumptuous meal, Si Yiyan took her around the small town for a walk. The shops in the town were mainly selling seafood products and there were many specialty seafood restaurants around. With so much good food around, Wen Xinya rubbed her little round belly. She could only look at them and sigh.
Soon afterward, they entered into a souvenir shop. There were many ornaments made from sea products. A wind chime made from different seashells caught her attention. As the gentle breeze blew, the seashells swayed and produced a clear, soothing sound.
Si Yiyan could see that she liked it a lot and bought it for her as a gift.
At evening time, Si Yiyan brought her to another specialty seafood restaurant. Wen Xinya had an enjoyable dinner.
By the time they returned to the Mo bungalow, it was already 9:30 pm.
The next day, Wen Xinya’s scandal intensified. Pictures of her roaming the streets were published in newspapers and magazines. Some of these pictures showed her fighting and creating scenes in public before she returned to the Wen Family. Some even showed her hanging out in bars with her gangster friends and getting drunk. It was probably because the Wen Family had not done anything thus far. And the main character of these stories, Wen Xinya, did not stand up in public to clarify matters for herself. That was why the newspaper and magazines became even more presumptuous.
Wen Xinya kept a few articles and magazines and Mother He burned the rest in the kitchen.
On the third day, the articles got even more ridiculous. It even said that she ate psychoactive drugs to enliven the mood.
When this was published in the news, the shares of the Wen Corporation were affected. Shareholders were desperate to sell their shares. Within a day, the shares of the Wen Corporation dropped drastically by 200 points. It was reported that the shares were still on a downward trend.
On the fourth day, the media shifted their focus from Wen Xinya’s scandal and reported news related to the drop in the Wen Corporation’s shares. Early that morning, reporters swarmed to the lobby of Wen Haowen’s office, waiting to interview him.
Though Wen Haowen detested Wen Xinya, he avoided answering any questions from the media when discussing the news of her scandals.
On the fifth day, the media exposed the old scandals of the Wen Family. It was reported that Wen Haowen had an affair with the current Madam Wen Ning Shuqian, while his wife Mo Yunyao was pregnant. There was even a photograph showing Wen Haowen accompanying Ning Shuqian for a pregnancy check-up on the day Mo Yunyao was in labor. The reports revealed that Wen Yuya was Wen Haowen’s illegitimate daughter.
When the photograph appeared in the news, it created a public uproar. Shareholders denounced Wen Haowen and Ning Shuqian, causing the shares of the Wen Corporation to drop even further.
Wen Xinya turned pale when she saw the picture of Wen Haowen and Ning Shuqian at a pregnancy check on the magazine. Ironically, Ning Shuqian visited the same hospital where Mo Yunyao delivered. She had already gotten the help of professionals to verify the authenticity of the photograph!
Wen Xinya tore up the magazine in a rage. She bellowed, “Worse than a beast!”
Ning Shuqian was indeed despicable. She was even willing to give up her own reputation to instigate the Wen Family to abandon her.
