Reborn Aristocrat: Return of the Vicious Heiress

“Silly kid. It doesn’t matter even if the Wen Family values kinship. This doesn’t change the fact that they will always prioritize the Wen Family’s reputation over everything else. Do you remember how we managed to drive her out of the family with minimal effort? That’s because Grandpa also despised Wen Xinya for her unglamorous past. Your Father has a strong sense of pride as well. If Wen Xinya is put in a bad light, that’ll indirectly affect the Wen Family as well. Your Father will be the first to disown her, together with your Grandma who will definitely take his side. I will also influence your Father to let the Board of Directors and shareholders of the Wen Corporation persuade your Grandpa. In this way, we’ll have everything under our control.”

She had originally intended to slowly torture Mo Yunyao’s daughter by leading her to a path of no return. She would allow Wen Xinya to fall into a bottomless dark hole and give up on herself. Anyone could walk over her and she would have a ruined reputation and lose all her dignity. However, little did she expect that that little bitch Wen Xinya was far more difficult to deal with than she thought. She had no choice but to act fast.

“Mother, will the Board of Directors and shareholders interfere in the Wen Family affairs?” Wen Yuya opened her eyes wide in disbelief.

“The Wen Family is the largest shareholder of the Wen Corporation. Your Grandpa holds the position of Chairman for the Board of Directors. Any negative news about Wen Xinya would impact the reputation of the Wen Family directly. And this, in turn, will affect the Wen Corporation indirectly, causing its share price to drop. They are all interlinked. The Board of Directors will not turn a blind eye.” Birds of the same feather flock together. Just like the Wen Family, the Board of Directors too prioritized their interests over everything else. This made them easy targets for her manipulation.

Wen Yuya felt assured. “Mother, you are the smartest.”

“You’ve finally realized my strengths?” Ning Shuqian replied with a sly look on her face.

Wen Yuya laughed. “Mother, you are the smartest mum on the planet. Wen Xinya thought she would be safe by hiding in her Grampy’s place. Never belittle the one who is more experienced. Fortunately, we’ve listened to your advice and did not act recklessly. Now we’ve finally caught her off-guard and found an opportunity to make good use of this incident against her.”

“That’s right. What good does it make to confront her with an argument? You do not get anything out of it. See who laughs the loudest in the end? You have to change your temper and start thinking rationally.” Ning Shuqian advised with care.

Wen Yuya replied elatedly, “Mother, I understand!”

“Now that Wen Xinya is being put in a bad light, you should be staying at home more to accompany Grandpa and Grandma. Ruya has returned to the Xia Family, and while Wen Xinya is away, the two elders will be lonely. This is the best chance to build a good relationship with them.”

Wen Yuya’s expression turned pale. She said, “Mother, you know both Grandpa and Grandma have treated me coldly sometimes, I am…”

“To achieve your goals, you have to be adaptable and be patient. If you can adapt to any situation, you would have already achieved half of the success.”

Wen Yuya nodded. “I’ll try.”

Ning Shuqian was a little worried. Xia Ruya had been visiting the Wen Family’s mansion frequently these few days. It was obvious that she wanted to get close to Grandpa and Grandma. While Wen Xinya’s bad news was spreading, Xia Ruya’s virtues would immediately be contrasted. The two elders would then naturally favor Xia Ruya who had been living with them for the past 12 years.
