Chapter 1252: Wen Xinya Does Have Her Weaknesses Too!
After the Heiress’ Gala ended, Xia Ruya loitered around the premises while the reporters who were out to scour for information left Boya Pavilion. Upon returning to her apartment, Xia Ruya immediately called for her family doctor to check up on her wounds, after which it was confirmed that the wounds were not too deep and that she would be able to recover completely within 10 to 14 days as long as she took good care of it, watched her diet and stayed away from the sun.
Xia Ruya heaved a sigh of relief upon hearing the news, for she was terrified that there would be scars. Regardless of how faint the scars might be, she would not be able to tolerate it.
She could not go out to face anyone at all because of the scars on her face. However, she could not afford to be embarrassed either. Besides, Wen Xinya would definitely make an issue out of the incident that took place during the gala. Hence, Xia Ruya did not have the cheek to go out and see anyone.
Thus, she decided to apply for a ten-day leave.
At the same time, she also paid attention to the news regarding the gala on the official website of Boya Pavilion.
Just as she had expected, the news of her spiking the snacks and tea during the gala was released on the official website. Fortunately for her, there was no detailed description of the incident and everything was rather brief. It was also stated that she had been blacklisted by Boya Pavilion.
A look of resentment formed in Xia Ruya’s eyes and she guffawed sarcastically at the thought of the owner kicking her down when she was already stuck in a rut, all for her own benefit. The owner even acted pretentiously.
To her surprise, the video clip of Wen Xinya’s performances of the four arts went viral and caused an uproar on the internet.
She felt thankful that the video clip drew attention away from the news of her spiking the food and tea.
However, she was angered by the fact that Wen Xinya had managed to gain glory again for winning the title.
Xia Ruya knew without a doubt, that it was all orchestrated by Boya Pavilion. Hence, she instantly felt a strong resentment towards them.
Wen Xinya would never fail to make her look pathetic by gaining all the glory.
She truly detested Wen Xinya.
She wished she could scream and smash everything onto the ground.
“Ruya, what are you daydreaming about?” asked a voice, snapping Xia Ruya back to reality. She retracted her hand as her urge to smash objects vanished.
She looked up in shock, only to see that Ning Shuqian had taken a seat beside her. She quickly put on a smile and asked, “Aunt Ning, what brings you here?”
Ning Shuqian held onto her hand and said, “I saw some news about you on the official website of Boya Pavilion, so I decided to come and visit you.”
She knew long ago that Xia Ruya was planning to use the gala to plot against Wen Xinya. After finding out that Xia Ruya was on close terms with the owner, she felt that Xia Ruya would definitely succeed. Yet, the news of Xia Ruya’s misdeeds and Wen Xinya’s victory were released today.
She was dumbfounded and in disbelief. How could Xia Ruya have failed?
To her dismay, Wen Xinya even managed to win and defeat Lin Yingxin. Ning Shuqian could totally imagine Wen Xinya becoming the second Mo Yunyao in the future. Back then, she knew exactly how influential Mo Yunyao was in Capital city.
Xia Ruya hung her head low. Actually, she was not in the mood to see anyone because of the wounds on her face. “I just saw the news too.”
Although she was looking down, Ning Shuqian could still see the scratches on her face. She asked concernedly, “What’s wrong with the wounds on your face? Did you get them during the gala yesterday?”
It seems plenty had happened during the gala yesterday.
Xia Ruya did not answer her. Instead, she looked up at Ning Shuqian with tears in her eyes. “Do… do I look hideous?”
After returning home yesterday, she proceeded to the bathroom to take a look at herself in the mirror, only to find that she looked like a demon from hell when she saw the bloodstained welts.
She shrieked in horror and dashed out of the bathroom like a madwoman.
Even until now, she still did not have the courage to look at herself in the mirror.
The thought of herself facing the heiresses and Wen Xinya during the gala with a hideous look on her face made her scream.
Ning Shuqian shook her head and said, “Don’t worry, these minor wounds will heal in a couple of days. There won’t be any scarring, either. By then, you’ll look youthful and beautiful again.”
Truth be told, Ning Shuqian was not shocked by her appearance, though it did look a little daunting.
Holding her tears back, Xia Ruya shook her head and muttered, “Aunt Ning, don’t lie to me. I know I look hideous now. Yesterday…”
A lump formed in her throat and she could not bring herself to continue.
Ning Shuqian tried to comfort her. “No matter what happened yesterday, it’s all over now. Don’t let your imagination run wild. The most important thing for you to do now is to let your wounds heal. There will be plenty of time for us to deal with Wen Xinya in the future.”
With the entertainment city project in place, it would only be a matter of time before the Wen Family got destroyed, and once they do, it would all be over for Wen Xinya. That was the reason she could stay patient and focus on manipulating Wen Haowen. However, she wouldn’t tell Xia Ruya about that.
Xia Ruya nodded and said, “Aunt Ning, you’re right. I was too eager to win.”
She had just returned to Capital city and had yet to secure her footing. However, she was too impatient in trying to take revenge and salvaging her reputation. As a result, she ended up falling into Wen Xinya’s trap. She refused to believe that the waitress had really served the wrong set of tea and snacks, and was certain that Wen Xinya knew that they were spiked and hence, secretly swapped the sets so as to let Lin Yingxin deal with her.
Ning Shuqian smiled and said, “That’s right. Wen Xinya has her weaknesses too. We just have to come up with a concrete plan to deal with her.”
Since Wen Xinya was a tough nut to crack, they decided to deal with the Wen Corporation first.
An icy cold gaze formed in Xia Ruya’s eyes. Ning Shuqian’s words had reminded her that Wen Xinya did have her weaknesses, and one of them was Old Mr. Mo. This time, she managed to get Wen Xinya riled up by making use of Old Mr. Mo.
She felt that Ning Shuqian was right about Wen Xinya’s weakness. In that case, she had to be patient and devise a scheme slowly.
The thought of it made her feel gradually more at ease.
