Chapter 1237 - The Ugly and Terrifying Truth (1/2)

Wen Xinya had exposed the true colors that Xia Ruya had been hiding beneath her pure and angelic facade. The ugly and horrifying truth about her personality made everyone judge her.

Although Xia Ruya had already had a bad reputation in Capital city prior to the gala, most of the controversy around her were just rumors. Everyone merely disliked Xia Ruya based on hearsay and simply did not bother about her.

However, the exposure of Xia Ruya’s evil and vicious personality gave everyone a great shock. These ladies from intellectual families had all been taught to have good morals, conduct, and etiquette ever since a young age. Although they would sometimes pull petty tricks too, they would never be as vicious as Xia Ruya as to poison others.

Xia Ruya had given everyone a whole new insight to what she really was like.

“So much for believing Xia Ruya’s explanation and thinking that she is really innocent. I didn’t expect that she’d actually be so wicked. Fortunately, Miss Wen managed to expose her true colors in front of everyone else. Otherwise, we would all have been fooled by her. I shall see what else she has to say now.”

“That’s understandable. No one would have thought that she would have the guts to poison someone since she’s still so young. When I heard her explanation just now, I thought she was innocent too. I even thought that Lin Yingxin was the one who had framed her.”

“Controversial rumors about her went around in the city previously, but I always thought that the truth is hard to tell since the Wen Family is so complicated. Miss Wen does deserve sympathy for having had to fend for herself for fifteen years, but I thought that Xia Ruya was just as pitiful for having been reduced to an illegitimate daughter and losing all of the glory that she used to have. Yet, she turned out to be such a vicious person. She really does deserve to be hated even though she’s pitiful in some way.”

“Ever since the past, I could tell that she was a troublemaker. Look what she did in the past. There were erotic photos of her and she even released her virginity test report and showed her hymen to everyone else. All of her scandals are atrociously disgraceful. Trust her to still have the cheek to roam around the city shamelessly.”

While listening to the remarks about her, Xia Ruya scanned her surroundings like a vulnerable and pitiful rabbit that had just been frightened. She was still hoping that someone could help her and save her from this humiliating predicament.

Oh right, I still have the owner of Boya Pavilion!

She’ll definitely help me.

Xia Ruya saw a glimmer of hope and quickly glanced at the owner pitifully, her eyes full of hope.

To her surprise, the owner ignored her plea for help, as if she did not notice her gaze at all.

She was instantly disappointed.

Hah, how silly of me. Everyone kicks a man who is down. It has always been that way and I’ve already understood that long ago. Why did I still hope that someone would save me?

She then turned to look at Lin Yingxin.

Wen Xinya is right. The only person who can prove my innocence is Lin Yingxin. If Lin Yingxin announces to everyone that whatever she said just now isn’t true, I’ll be able to prove that I have been maligned. No one will be able to accuse me then.

“Senior Lin!” Xia Ruya rushed towards Lin Qingxin agitatedly and grabbed her hand as if she had found a straw to clutch at for dear life.

Unfortunately for her, Lin Yingxin had been shell shocked and dumbfounded ever since she got pulled away from Xia Ruya after losing control of her emotions. Regardless of the chaos, she seemed to be unaware of what was going on around her and it was as if her soul had left her body.
