Chapter 638: The Wen Family’s Attitude Towards Xia Ruya

Xia Ruya walked into the Wen Family home slowly, only to see that the decor in the living room was still the same as before, though it felt extremely foreign to her. She had only moved out of the Wen Family home for a few days and yet, she felt as if she had already done so for a long time.

If Old Mr. Wen did not request to see her, she would not want to step foot inside at all.

She had just realized that the Wen Family was just as mercenary and selfish as the Xia Family.

Along the way, she bumped into some servants who no longer greeted her as affectionately as before. Instead, they gathered together to gossip amongst themselves. She knew for sure that they were talking about her.

When she walked past the living room, she caught sight of Old Mrs. Wen sitting on the couch and reading some newspapers. Upon sight of her, Old Mrs. Wen felt a sudden urge to say something but ended up looking away.

Xia Ruya smirked coldly and thought to herself, Look… this is how much the Wen Family loves me.

She was down and out. During this period of time, she had already experienced the worst sides of humanity and had long grown numb to these unfeeling and cruel acts.

Xia Ruya did not greet Old Mrs. Wen at all. Instead, she made her way upstairs slowly and knocked on Old Mr. Wen’s door.

Old Mr. Wen expressed assent from inside the study.

Xia Ruya pushed the door open and entered.

Old Mr. Wen looked at Xia Ruya and discovered that she had turned extremely pale. “Ruya, come here and take a seat!”

Xia Ruya sat in front of Old Mr. Wen and asked coldly, “Old Mr. Wen, what is it that you’re looking for me for?”

She sounded distant and aloof, as if Old Mr. Wen was just a stranger who did not teach her from a young age and shower her with love and concern.

Feeling a little sad to hear how cold and formal she was, Old Mr. Wen said, “Ruya, it’s very inconvenient for you to live out there alone. Why don’t you move back home?”

Although Old Mr. Wen had indeed felt angry and disappointed when he found out that Xia Ruya had helped Ning Shuqian plot against the Wen Family, he did not expect that the Xia Family would be so heartless as to sever ties with her and even announce it on the newspapers. To make matters worse, Zhishan Club had even expelled her, causing her to lose her last hope.

Xia Ruya looked up at him coldly and sneered. “Old Mr. Wen, what do you mean? Are you taking pity on me or showing me sympathy?”

It’s all just hypocrisy. If he truly cared about me, why didn’t he stop Wen Xinya from ruining my coming-of-age ceremony?

Old Mr. Wen frowned and said, “The fact that you’re the adoptive daughter of the Wen Family cannot be changed. It’s only right for you to move back home.”

Xia Ruya chuckled sinisterly and gibed. “You’re making yourself so high-sounding. Aren’t I just the Wen Family’s adopted daughter on the surface?”

She was utterly disgusted by the hypocrisy.

Old Mr. Wen turned pale and asked with a frown, “Why would you think that way?”

Xia Ruya smirked and her dry and pale lips made it look grotesque. “Did Wen Xinya agree to your decision to let me move back into the Wen Family home? Isn’t she the cause of everything? Wasn’t she the one who made me end up in such a pathetic plight?”

Wen Xinya would never miss any opportunity to attack her. There had been lots of controversial news about Xia Ruya lately and she was certain that Wen Xinya was the mastermind behind it all.

Old Mr. Wen moved his lips, at a sudden loss for words.

Anger was written all over Xia Ruya’s face and she looked extremely oppressing. “What’s wrong? Are you at a loss for words? If you actually cared about me, why would you allow Wen Xinya to harm me like that?”

Old Mr. Wen looked at her and realized that the granddaughter whom he had always been proud of, had become such an extreme person. He said, “Ruya, I thought that you would have reflected on your own mistakes now that things have come to this. Yet… you’re still as obsessed and muddled up as you used to be. Even till now, you’re still pushing the blame to others. You’ve truly disappointed me.”

Previously, he was a little worried that Wen Xinya would become too obsessed with money and materialism after moving back in with the Wen Family and suddenly living a life of luxury. He was afraid that she would lose herself in the midst of being too greedy.

Yet, the barely educated Wen Xinya actually resisted the temptations of money and material, and even strove to work harder and improve herself. On the other hand, Xia Ruya whom he had always been proud of, actually became blinded by greed and materialism. She had even become jealous and resentful.

She had led herself into the plight she was in today.

Suddenly agitated, Xia Ruya asked, “Did you get me to come here just so you could lecture me and take the chance to praise Wen Xinya while undermining me?”

Everyone was berating her and reprimanding her, including Tang Xiaowei, the Xia Family and even the Wen Family. She had really had enough.

Old Mr. Wen was at a loss for words.

Xia Ruya took a deep breath and suppressed her anger before saying coldly, “Old Mr. Wen, if there’s nothing else you have to say, I’ll be leaving now.”

She then turned around and got ready to leave.

“Wait a minute!” Old Mr. Wen yelled to stop her in her tracks.

He did not wish to say much to her.

Xia Ruya stopped walking, though she did not turn around because she felt that there was no need for her to be lectured by him.

Old Mr. Wen said, “I plan to give you thirty percent of the bonds that I have under my name, a five-million-yuan property, as well as a set of jewelry that’s worth 10 million yuan.”

Actually, he had previously stated in his will that he would also be bequeathing five percent of the Wen Corporation’s shares to Xia Ruya. However, he was utterly disappointed in her after finding out that she had colluded with Ning Shuqian to plot against the Wen Family. He felt that there would be trouble if he were to give her five percent of the shares, especially since she resented the Wen Family and Wen Xinya so greatly.

Xia Ruya turned around abruptly, greatly taken aback by how generous he was. Back when she first left the Wen Family, he had only given her two properties and some jewelry.

Old Mr. Wen said composedly, “I’ve already drafted the contract of transfer and signed my name on it. Lawyer Luo has also read through it as well. Sign it yourself and look for Lawyer Luo to complete the rest of the procedures!”

Xia Ruya took a look at the agreement on the desk and hesitated for a moment before grabbing it.

Old Mr. Wen sat on the couch and said, “There’s nothing else I have to tell you. You may leave now.”

If Xia Ruya had been willing to return to the Wen Family, he would not have done that. However, she was not. Hence, he had to be quick to cut the Gordian knot… lest things get blown out of proportion.

Xia Ruya was well aware that he was just trying to brush her off with money. She smirked and quipped. “Thank you for your care and concern throughout all these years, Old Mr. Wen. Don’t worry… I’ll stay away as far as I can after taking the money. Should we ever meet again, we’ll be nothing more than familiar strangers. I won’t bother the Wen Family either.”

Old Mr. Wen closed his eyes as if he had fallen asleep.

Xia Ruya grabbed the agreement and turned around to leave the study.
