Reborn Aristocrat: Return of the Vicious Heiress

Chapter 138: Nine-day Phoenix

Views:

Wen Xinya was wearing a phoenix embroidered dress. The hem of the dress spread out with her graceful steps. Suddenly, a golden light appeared. The phoenix's gorgeous wings spread out, fluttering as if ready to fly. She was so gorgeous and noble! The auspicious grass embroidered on her skirt seemed to be swaying in the wind, and the nine-phoenix tail skirt dragged on the ground, like a phoenix whistling among the auspicious grass, making her look as noble and majestic as a phoenix in the sky.

She walked down the stairs slowly. The silver-white phoenix brocade shone brightly, exuding a mysterious and noble air that took the breath away for everyone present.

"Oh my god! It's Phoenix Brocade. I've seen similar Phoenix Brocade before at a world-famous auction in Italy. That Phoenix Brocade cheongsam was sold for a high price of 10 million, but it's not as exquisite as this one."

"I heard that Phoenix Brocade was a special brocade for the queen in ancient times. Because the weaving process was complicated and tedious, this craft has been lost. I didn't expect that there is still someone in the world who can weave this unique brocade."

"I heard that the silk used for Phoenix Brocade requires snow silkworms from deep in the Tianshan Mountains. Snow silkworms were scarce in ancient times. Nowadays, due to air pollution, snow silkworms have become a legend. It's incredible that we can still find snow silkworms to weave Phoenix Brocade!"

The people below were talking about it, and Wen Xinya frowned slightly. This dress was airlifted from Italy to her, and it was as strange as the five sets of jewelry, so she didn't wear it.

The previous dress was already soaked, and although the PR company had prepared several dresses for her, she was not completely satisfied, so she wore this one. She did not expect that this dress was actually the legendary Phoenix Brocade and caused such a sensation!

Zhou Hui hurried over and asked her in a low voice: "Are you okay?"

"It's okay!" Wen Xinya let out a long breath, as if she wanted to expel all the foul air in her chest, including the nightmare from her previous life.

Zhou Huiyan breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good, but you have to be careful in the future. This circle may seem glamorous, but underneath the glitz and glamour lies corruption and decadence that you can never see through. One wrong step will lead to many wrong steps."

Wen Xinya nodded in agreement. She was indeed careless today. She didn't expect Ning Shuqian and the others to be able to do something in Huayuxuan. "Today has taught me a lesson. I will be more careful in the future."

Zhou Huiyan nodded with a smile.

Wen Xinya felt a little hungry and weak, so she went to the food area to get some food.

Ning Shuqian watched Wen Xinya go to the food area alone, and walked towards her.

She hated Wen Xinya to the extreme. She had painstakingly arranged everything, but it was ultimately dissolved by her few meaningless words. The old man even openly humiliated her, causing her to fall from heaven to hell in an instant. Facing the open and indirect ridicule, whispers and discussions of those noble ladies, she felt extremely humiliated and ashamed. Even though her marriage to Hao Wen was widely reported by the media, she did not embarrass herself in front of so many people.

Even Yuya was implicated, and was attacked and talked about. Even the things that happened to Yuya at Zhou Tianyu's birthday party were revealed. Yuya even had a fight with others and lost face. She could imagine that Yuya would definitely have a place in tomorrow's newspaper.

Originally, she thought that after her aphrodisiac perfume took effect and exposed her ugly appearance, she would be able to avenge this humiliation. However, who knew that she actually noticed something was going on and was on guard, leaving the banquet hall before the aphrodisiac perfume could fully take effect.

She spent a lot of money to get that perfume from a private owner. She heard that the smell was very light, not even the most professional perfumer could detect it. She tried it on herself specially, and the effect was slow. At first she only felt a little dry mouth and tongue, and gradually she felt a slight fever on her face, and then she felt a little hot all over.

At such a banquet, the atmosphere is very lively and most people would think that people are having too much fun, which is why this kind of reaction occurs. By the time the drug has fully taken effect, it is already overwhelming and out of control.

She found out from the public relations company that Wen Xinya was going to Huayuxuan for a beauty treatment, so she asked Yuya and Ruya to meet her at Huayuxuan on purpose, taking the opportunity to add aphrodisiac essence to the products she used.

When I noticed her blushing cheeks and eyes were full of tears, I knew her aphrodisiac essence had taken effect! But... even so, it couldn't be this fast, right

Could it be related to her physical condition? The person who sold her the perfume said that some people are immune to this type of perfume, so the effect of the perfume will not be very great. Usually they just feel a little uncomfortable, which will go away after a while. Could it be that Wen Xinya has such a physical condition

Thinking of this, Ning Shuqian's face turned pale. She spent more than one million on that small bottle of perfume, but it didn't even have the desired effect. So much money was wasted!

Ning Shuqian elegantly stood beside Wen Xinya, holding a glass of red wine: "Xinya, congratulations on becoming the real eldest daughter of the Wen family! From now on, you are the heir of the Wen family."

Wen Xinya took some seafood and slowly turned around. A beautiful smile bloomed on her pale face, but the smile did not reach her eyes: "Thank you, Aunt Ning!"

Ning Shuqian looked at her pale face and asked with concern: "Xinya, you don't look well, are you feeling unwell?"

"I'm fine. I just felt a little uncomfortable. I went upstairs to rest for a while, and I'm much better now." Wen Xinya said lightly. She didn't believe at all that the matter of the fragrance-enhancing essence had nothing to do with Ning Shuqian. Such a strange essence was not something that two girls, Wen Yuya and Xia Ruya, could get.

Ning Shuqian said with relief: "This way, I feel much more at ease."

Wen Xinya just smiled and said nothing. There was no need for her to cater to such hypocrisy.

Ning Shuqian smiled and said, "I also helped to come up with some ideas for the PR company before. Now that your banquet is so successful, I am also very happy."

Wen Xinya smiled wryly: "After Aunt Ning said that, I forgot to thank you for your good intentions!"

She emphasized the words "good intentions" very much, and a cold light flashed in her eyes. When her eyes moved slightly, the cold light turned into tiny stars and spread out in her eyes.

Ning Shuqian was a smart person, so how could she not understand what she meant? However, she pretended not to hear, "Although you are not my biological daughter, you are the only blood of the Wen family. Naturally, I have to be more attentive to you in everything."

Wen Xinya pretended to be flattered: "Aunt Ning, you treat me like this. Yuya will definitely be unhappy if she knows. She even locked me up in the bathroom before."

Ning Shuqian's eyes suddenly widened and her breathing became heavy for a moment. Yuya actually dared to do such a thing. If the old man knew about it, he would never forgive her. Ning Shuqian, who didn't know the inside story, lost her attitude of being a gentle and generous stepmother and her submissive mood. Her mind was full of thoughts about what happened so that she could shirk the responsibility for Yuya.

"Xinya, you must have misunderstood. Yuya was indeed a little childish before, but she has changed a lot now and truly regards you as her sister. I will go and ask her what is going on. If she really did something like this, I will definitely not let her off easily."

Wen Xinya nodded.

Ning Shuqian turned around and left in a hurry.

Looking at Ning Shuqian's leaving back, Wen Xinya's eyes flashed coldly.
