Reborn Aristocrat: Return of the Vicious Heiress

The waitress began pouring liquor for everyone.

Wen Haowen raised his glass and said, “Let’s toast to Xinya finally being free from the misery of studying. Let’s also hope that she can achieve stellar results.”

Due to Old Mr. Mo’s presence, Wen Haowen kept an exceptionally low profile and he seized every opportunity to act as a benevolent father. His handsome face and tender expression made him look amicable and kind.

Although Old Mr. Wen disliked Wen Haowen, he was still satisfied with his behavior during the luncheon. Hence, he raised his glass and said, “This is something worth celebrating.”

Old Mr. Mo and Si Yiyan also raised their glasses while remaining silent.

“I’d like to wish for Grampy and Grandpa to be in the pink of health and enjoy endless longevity,” Wen Xinya said before grabbing some red wine.

Si Yiyan glanced at her calmly with a threatening expression and a squint.

Wen Xinya’s pupils constricted and she thought about the promise she had made to Si Yiyan back then. She hurriedly retracted her hand and grabbed the teacup instead. “I’ll replace the alcohol with tea. Here’s a toast from me.”

She only realized the situation after downing the cup of tea. She thought to herself, Wait… I only promised Si Yiyan that I won’t get drunk. I didn’t promise that I won’t touch alcohol. Besides, I’m just having a drink with the elders! Why do I have to feel guilty? 

She then glowered at Si Yiyan angrily.

Pleased with how obedient she was, Si Yiyan smiled and chugged his glass of wine.

“We agreed to toast together, but you drank first,” said Old Mr. Wen, who found it strange that Wen Xinya had opted for tea instead of alcohol because he knew that she had a good liquor level. However, he did not probe any further.

Old Mr. Mo had noticed everything, including how submissive Wen Xinya was towards Si Yiyan. He expected better from her.

The atmosphere became much livelier.

Old Mr. Wen raised his glass and said, “Old Mr. Mo, here’s a toast from me to you. Thank you for raising Xinya to be such an outstanding girl.”

He still remembered how boorish and uncouth Wen Xinya used to be when she first reunited with the Wen Family. Within just three short years, Wen Xinya had grown tremendously and evolved into a real wealthy heiress and even used her outstanding achievements to prove her growth. He knew that Old Mr. Mo deserved credit for it and he was genuinely thankful.

At the same time, his heart was laden with guilt.

Still appearing composed, Old Mr. Mo said, “You don’t have to thank me. Xinya is my granddaughter too. Besides, it’s also because she’s very outstanding herself.”

Ever since Wen Xinya moved to the Mo Family for a temporary stay, Old Mr. Mo had realized that she was a diamond in the rough which would glisten and shine resplendently after some polishing. He felt that the Wen Family was just too silly to think that she was uncouth and beyond hope.

His words made Old Mr. Wen feel awkward immediately. The thought of himself forcing Wen Xinya to move to the Mo Family home as soon as she reunited with the Wen Family, made him feel rather guilty and remorseful. He chuckled wryly and said, “I still have to thank you no matter what.”

As soon as he finished speaking, he downed a glass of liquor.

A sudden tension filled the air, though Wen Xinya felt that she was in no place to intervene, especially since she was just a junior and Wen Haowen was present too. Besides, she was also involved in the matter and it would be inappropriate for her to say anything. Hence, she focused on being a glutton delightfully.

“Slow down. If you eat too quickly, your tummy will get upset. Besides… I heard that you’ll gain weight if you eat too quickly,” Si Yiyan said softly, though he continuously scooped food onto her plate.

Wen Xinya asked softly, “Are you serious?”

Si Yiyan answered, “Since when have I ever lied to you?”

Wen Xinya stuck her pink tongue out at him before slowing down obediently.

She continued to be engrossed in the food and ended up neglecting Si Yiyan.

Si Yiyan’s eyes glistened and he gently rubbed his calf against Wen Xinya’s.

Wen Xinya got a great shock and gently kicked Si Yiyan, not wanting to lose. She shot him a glance, trying to say, “Can you let me eat in peace!?!”

Si Yiyan quivered and gently placed his hand on her thigh below the table while caressing it casually. He looked at her and tried to hint, “Go ahead and eat while I caress you.”

The ticklish sensation in Wen Xinya’s legs made her fidget and she insisted on ignoring him. Well, she was not exactly at a major loss anyway. She could not be bothered to argue with him.

Si Yiyan gently lifted her knee-length skirt and touched her naked thigh with one hand while helping her to her favorite dishes with another hand. “This tastes really great. Have more.”

I’ve had enough! I just want to have a proper meal in peace! Wen Xinya thought to herself. How dare he be so brazen in the presence of Grampy and Grandpa. He’s just courting death. She then pushed his hand away.

Si Yiyan grabbed her hand and pressed her hand with his thumb.

Wen Xinya retracted her hand and decided to ignore him. Instead, she focused on eating!

At this moment, Si Yiyan again reached his hand beneath her skirt, though he was more outrageous this time, for he went to the extent of placing his hand on her inner thigh and moving it upwards.

Wen Xinya turned as red as a tomato and her hand quivered while holding onto the chopstick. All of a sudden, she touched the teacup by accident, after which the teacup tipped over onto the table with a loud thud…

Wen Xinya grunted softly and watched as the tea spilled all over the place. She instinctively sprung up from her seat but did not manage to avoid the tea.

Her skirt was completely soaked.

Old Mr. Mo asked worriedly, “Xinya, how did you spill the tea?”

Wen Xinya’s face turned red and hot, and she hung her head low while staring at her drenched skirt, not daring to look up at her elders at all. She glared at Si Yiyan using her peripheral vision and answered, “Nothing, I was just careless.”

It’s all Si Yiyan’s fault for behaving so lewdly in public and causing me to get so agitated that I spilled the tea.

Old Mr. Wen quickly said, “It’s alright, go wash yourself up in the washroom!”

Wen Haowen hurriedly instructed the waitress. “Please clear the mess and serve a clean set of utensils.”

Wen Xinya said, “Grampy, Grandpa, Father, you guys go ahead and eat while I go to the washroom.”

She then scurried towards the bathroom without even waiting for them to speak.

Old Mr. Wen smiled and said, “Why is she so flustered?”

Wen Haowen said, “Xinya is still a kid. It’s normal for her to be careless.”

Old Mr. Mo stared at Si Yiyan with an inexplicable gaze. He reckoned that that rascal must have something to do with the blunder made by Wen Xinya. He had noticed that Si Yiyan constantly exchanged flirtatious glances with Wen Xinya brazenly right in front of them. He began to regret bringing Si Yiyan along with him.

Despite having noticed the look in Old Mr. Mo’s eyes, Si Yiyan remained calm and composed, and even grabbed the teapot to pour some tea into Old Mr. Mo’s cup.
