Reborn Aristocrat: Return of the Vicious Heires

Chapter 1774: Hearing About the Heiress’ Gala Again!

Recently, besides the internal warfare in the Xiao Corporation, the circle had been hyped up about the Heiress’ Gala.

After six years, Wen Xinya heard about the Heiress’ Gala again.

What shocked her was that Boya Pavilion was obviously intending to hold a grand Heiress’ Gala this time.

In the upper-class society, there were plenty of unmarried women who received invitations—all slightly talented or reputable women in scholarly or wealthy families were actually all eligible to participate in the grand gala this time.

Wen Xinya had even heard that the secret owner of Boya Pavilion had personally invited a few talented and virtuous people in the upper-class society to host the Heiress’ Gala together.

It was actually a stark difference from Boya Pavilion’s usual secretive way of operation.

Wen Xinya sharply felt that something was off regarding this.

However, both the Boya Pavilion and its owner existed secretively in Capital city. For now, Wen Xinya really couldn’t guess who was Boya Pavilion’s owner—what exactly was the intention of holding a grand Heiress’ Gala?

Thankfully, Boya Pavilion and her stayed in their own lanes and didn’t have any misunderstandings or clashes. Thus, since Wen Xinya couldn’t guess Boya Pavilion’s intention, she didn’t continue pursuing it.

“Boya Pavilion is holding a grand Heiress’ Gala to stir things up in Capital city—seems like Capital city won’t be peaceful in the near future.”

Boya Pavilion’s owner had managed the Heiress’ Gala for many years. Due to the gala, Boya Pavilion’s status in Capital city’s upper-class society was also extraordinary—respected, admired, and extremely well-connected, covering almost all wealthy families.

All the wealthy ladies who had taken part in Heiress’ Gala were all related or linked to Boya Pavilion.

The most classic examples were Tang Xiaowei and Zhou Huiyan—they had previously stood out and gained a fair reputation in Capital city’s upper-class society due to the Heiress’ Gala.

And previously, Xinya had also earned the reputation for being talented in the four arts due to the Heiress’ Gala.

This went to show how much influence would Boya Pavilion cause in the upper-class society by holding a grand Heiress’ Gala.

Wen Xinya asked, “Grandpa, what do you mean?”

Grandpa seemed to know more about Boya Pavilion’s owner and the Heiress’ Gala.

“Since the Heiress’ Gala’s inception, Boya Pavilion had only organized a grand gala once, and that was during Tang Xiaowei and Zhou Huiyan’s time. As they displayed exceptional talents at the gala, Boya Pavilion’s reputation also soared, solidifying its extraordinary status in Capital city. Since then, Boya Pavilion went completely quiet, but the Heiress’ Gala still infiltrated people’s hearts. This time, Boya Pavilion is once again organizing a grand gala, probably intending to reinstate their reputation.”

Old Mr. Wen was already an aged man.

He could probably guess that Boya Pavilion was holding a grand Heiress’ Gala for an ulterior motive.

Wen Xinya said, “Seems like the Heiress’ Gala this time isn’t that simple.”

She became even more curious about Boya Pavilion and intended to give Aunt Zhou a call later to ask about the details of her participation in the Heiress’ Gala.

“Missy, there’s a Ms. Qin outside who’s here to visit you with an invitation from the owner of Boya Pavilion!”

Wen Xinya and Old Mr. Wen exchanged glances and saw the shock in each others’ eyes.

This was speaking of the devil!

“Since he came to visit you, I’ll go to the study first.” Old Mr. Wen got up and headed directly upstairs.

Wen Xinya instructed her helper. “Invite him in!”

Someone from Boya Pavilion actually visited personally with an invitation. This shocked Wen Xinya greatly—in this time and age, nobody used a physical invitation anymore.

Very quickly, the helper ushered a forty-odd-years-old woman in a black cheongsam embroidered with red peonies into the living room.

This person was actually someone Wen Xinya knew.

She was one of the judges at the Heiress’ Gala that Wen Xinya participated in six years ago.

“Miss Wen, it’s been six years, how have you been?” Ms. Qin greeted Wen Xinya first. Her face, not considered beautiful yet exceptionally tasteful, had on a gracious and virtuous smile.

Wen Xinya said politely, “Excuse me for not receiving you personally as I didn’t know you came. Ms. Qin, please have a seat!”

Since she could be a judge at Heiress’ Gala, she definitely had an extraordinary status in Boya Pavilion. Naturally, she had to be so courteous.

Ms. Qin smiled and said, “Miss Wen is too polite. I’ve come today on behalf of the owner of the pavilion to present the invitation of the Heiress’ Gala, especially inviting Miss Wen to participate in the Heiress’ Gala as one of the judges.”

Saying that, she presented a pink invitation before Wen Xinya.

Stunned, it slipped Wen Xinya’s mind to receive the invitation before her as she said, slightly, shocked, “I don’t deserve the pavilion’s owner’s kindness—the Heiress’ Gala is such a grand event and I’m too untalented to be fit as a judge.”

Wen Xinya was extremely shocked.

What was Boya Pavilion’s owner’s meaning of inviting her to be a judge at the Heiress’ Gala?

“Miss Wen, don’t need to belittle yourself. Everyone in Capital city knows that you’ve succeeded Old Mr. Mo, won at the Heiress’ Gala six years ago with your proficiency in the four arts, and is rightfully known as a talented lady. Hope Miss Wen doesn’t reject.”

Ms. Qin was still holding the invitation and didn’t retract it.

Wen Xinya was in a difficult position. “The owner of the pavilion really thinks too highly of me…”

Boya Pavilion was so hospitable that Wen Xinya was actually having a hard time rejecting.

However, when she was talking about the Heiress’ Gala with Grandpa previously, she didn’t wanted to attend the gala and get herself into this mess.

“Miss Wen, you’re reputed for being talented and known as one of the Dynamic Duo of Capital city. Having you as a judge for Boya Pavilion stands high in popular favor. Based on your popularity, if you can attend the Heiress’ Gala, it’ll definitely be the talk of the town. Please, Miss Wen, don’t reject the pavilion owner’s good intentions.”

It seemed like Ms. Qin wouldn’t give up before successfully persuading her.

At this point, it seemed like Wen Xinya already ran out of reasons to reject her.

Everything was related to her being known as one of the Dynamic Duo of Capital city.

“I appreciate the pavilion owner’s overestimation of me. In that case, I’ll accept the invitation.”

Wen Xinya hesitated for a while, but eventually took the invitation. The pink invitation was rather exquisite, with eye-catching peach blossom petals in the middle and a faint floral scent.

Ms. Qin couldn’t help but heave a sigh of relief as her smile deepened. “The pavilion owner takes this year’s Heiress’ Gala very seriously and has invited many ex-participants of the gala, including Teacher Zhou Huiyan. If you were to really reject the pavilion owner’s invitation, I really won’t know how to answer to him.”

Wen Xinya was secretly shocked, yet not revealed any of it on her face as she asked leisurely, “Based on my knowledge, the Heiress’ Gala has always been low-key and was exclusive only to a fixed circle. Why the high profile this time?”

Was it really like what Grampy said—Boya Pavilion had an ulterior motive?

Wen Xinya wanted to test the waters.

“It was the pavilion owner’s decision to hold a grand Heiress’ Gala. The rest of us don’t know better.” Ms. Qin’s reply was flawless.

Wen Xinya didn’t question further and said politely, “Thank you, Ms. Qin, for coming over especially.”
