In the Wen family's old house, Old Master Wen was playing chess with Butler Yu.
The orange and carbon gray colored glass carved chess figures face each other at the two ends of the Chu River and Han River.
Old Master Wen was concentrating on the chessboard, holding a jade unicorn in one hand and stroking it constantly. His pair of old and turbid eyes were full of sharpness, just like an old general who was good at fighting and killing.
Butler Yu, who has always held a very high status in the Wen family, strictly abided by the rules and performed his duties, and seemed to have little sense of existence, suddenly changed his demeanor and became serious and solemn, as if he had become a different person. He fought and killed with the old man and was not at all inferior.
Mr. Wen lowered his head and asked, "What do you think Xinya is thinking when she suddenly wants to attend the board of directors as a shareholder of Wen's Group?"
He was becoming more and more confused about his granddaughter. This time when he came back from Country E, he felt this even more strongly. There was a hint of sharpness and murderousness in her eyes and brows. She was no longer as reserved as before. If she was unwilling to reveal her thoughts, no one would be able to guess them.
Housekeeper Yu smiled and said, "The eldest lady must have her own reasons for doing this. We will know after the board meeting is over, right?"
In fact, he was also very curious about the eldest lady's purpose of attending the board meeting.
Mr. Wen said, "The shareholders on the board are all shrewd and not easy to deal with. This is Xinya's first time attending the board. I'm worried that the directors won't buy into her ideas. This will have a profound impact on her future on the Wen Group board."
Although Xinya has made a name for herself in Wen's Group because of the launch of Ai Shang products, those old guys in the group who are too arrogant may not buy it. This is Xinya's first time attending the board of directors. If there is no good result, she will easily be looked down upon by those shareholders in the future. It will be even more difficult for her to gain a foothold in the board of directors.
What's more, there is another Wen Haowen in the Wen Group. According to Wen Haowen's personality, he will naturally not tolerate Xinya taking the lead. What he is most worried about is that Wen Haowen will use his position as president to suppress Xinya and embarrass Xinya.
Xinya's move was indeed very risky.
Housekeeper Yu smiled and said, "The eldest lady knows how to act in moderation. Since she has attended the board meeting, she must have some plans in mind."
He had never looked down upon the eldest daughter of the Wen family. Three years ago, when he accompanied the old man to the alley in the slums to pick her up, although she was dressed in a rough manner, her eyes were sharp, fierce, and ruthless, and she was full of pride and arrogance. If she could be well educated and trained, she would surely achieve extraordinary things in the future.
As a bystander, he watched Xia Ruya go from being an elegant and noble young lady to gradually going astray, and watched Wen Xinya go from being a vulgar little sister to gradually becoming a real rich lady.
Because of the comparison, her performance stands out.
Old Master Wen frowned slightly and said nothing.
Housekeeper Yu laughed and said, "You have already called the shareholders you are familiar with and the shareholders on the board of directors. The rest is up to Miss. She can handle it."
His tone was full of certainty.
A person of all sizes who has character, character and talent will not be in such a bad state even if he is imprisoned.
Old Master Wen looked up at him and said, "You are still as confident in her as you were before."
When he suddenly found his granddaughter, he was overjoyed. He thought that he didn't care even if she was brought up as a small farmer. But what he never expected was that she had such a terrible past. He hesitated. He wanted to get his granddaughter back. She could be ordinary and mediocre, but she would never be a stain on the Wen family.
To bring her back, he also had to work hard.
Butler Yu just smiled and said nothing.
Old Master Wen said with some emotion: "I still remember what you said at that time, this girl was imprisoned, in a state of disgrace and vulgarity, but she was not diminished in her pride. This is character, and it is the character of the Mo family, and we should cultivate it with all our heart."
At this point, he felt quite ashamed. Although he seemed to be as clear-headed as Butler Yu, he was actually not as insightful and courageous as him. He did not really take Butler Yu's words to heart. Although Butler Yu's words made him determined to take Xinya back, he still did not do his best to discipline her.
He did not see through Xinya's true nature. He was just confused by her vulgarity and her suitability to be the eldest daughter of the Wen family, or even the heir of the Wen family. He was wavering between the blood ties and more than ten years of family upbringing, and could not make a choice.
Fortunately, he had Mr. Mo's education, otherwise such a good character would have been treated like this in the Wen family. He couldn't imagine what would become of the only bloodline of the Wen family.
Therefore, his heart was filled with immense gratitude towards Mr. Mo.
Butler Yu laughed and said, "Over the years, I have always been a little better than you at judging people."
In fact, fate is important between people. He had never felt the innate character of Xia Ruya, which came from the Mo family. Thinking of his wife, he suddenly determined that this child would achieve something in the future. He persuaded the old man to take her back. He also didn't want to see the child that his wife risked her life to give birth to end up like this.
Fortunately, the old man didn't waste much time talking because of his guilt and pity for his wife.
Old Master Wen sighed, "Yes! Over the years, you have always had a better eye for people than I do. Xinya has always been a good child."
Over the years, the old lady he had favored was confused. Fortunately, she knew nothing and stayed at home to take care of her husband and children.
He placed great hopes on his son Wen Haowen and even went so far as to ask Yun Yao to marry him, but he turned out to be a heartless and ungrateful person.
He poured his love and care into Xia Ruya, and even after Xinya returned to the Wen family, his heart was biased towards her for a long time. However, she turned out to be hypocritical and malicious.
He never liked Ning Shuqian at first. Although he disliked her, he thought she was quite decent. Who knew that she was truly ambitious, greedy, and vicious.
However, Wen Xinya, the only granddaughter he did not think highly of, was not at all what he thought.
Housekeeper Yu said meaningfully: "Fortunately, the eldest lady was raised in the Mo family."
The Wen family would only ruin her. Her innate character could only be truly revealed through the upbringing of the Mo family.
Old Master Wen did not mind the sharp words from the housekeeper Yu. He thought the same in his heart. Xinya was a thoughtful child and had inherited Yun Yao's intolerant character. If the Wen family could not treat her sincerely, it would be tantamount to destroying her.
The two of them didn't say anything, they just concentrated on playing chess.
Mr. Wen smiled and said, “General!”
Butler Yu sighed, "I lost."
Old Master Wen said with some complacency: "For many years, although I have never been as good as you in judging others, you have never beaten me in chess."
