“The Research Institute belongs to Wen Huai. I’m studying physics for my own reasons, not to take over the Research Institute. Uncle and some other uncles have been managing the Research Institute very well. Aunt, don’t you plan to let me meet my younger siblings?”
Wen Xin didn’t want to continue discussing this issue with Wen Zhimo. Rarely did they have a chance to talk calmly, and she didn’t want to ruin the atmosphere. She had her own arrangements and didn’t need to explain everything to Wen Zhimo.
“Alright, you’ve had your own ideas since you were young. I’ll go pick up your younger siblings from home. You can wander around here. Don’t forget, this is your home.”
Wen Zhimo couldn’t persuade Wen Xin, so she pondered in her heart. She would have to think of another way. She stood up and left the mansion.
The Wen family had no family power at all, but the Ma family was different. Ma Wenyuan was the legitimate heir of that big family. After the Wen family’s parents passed away, Ma Wenyuan took over the management of the two major laboratories, effectively replacing Wen Zhimo’s position in Independent
State.
Originally a middle-class family, the Ma family flourished and successfully replaced the Wen family’s position, becoming the fifth-largest family in Beijing.
Of course, the Ma family had some background to begin with, and this could not be denied.
About twenty minutes later, Wen Zhimo came back with four people. Among them was a girl who looked very arrogant, giving off an air of disdain.
At first glance, Wen Xin found this girl very disagreeable, and the girl, upon seeing her, also frowned unhappily, apparently not having any good feelings towards her.
“Aunt, is she…”
“She’s Wen Huai’s sister… You should be in the same grade. You’ll both be going to Beijing University in the future, so get to know each other and take care of each other in the future.
“Wen Xin, this is your aunt’s niece. Get to know each other…”
Wen Xin sat still, her gaze coldly sweeping over the girl. She nodded slightly, giving her face by greeting her.
Chen Yunchu had grown up in everyone’s palms since childhood— taken care of and protected by everyone since she was a child. Even at school, everyone who knew her identity treated her with great respect. This was the first time she had encountered such arrogance and rudeness.
However, in front of Wen Zhimo, Chen Yunchu restrained her temper. Although she was angry, she didn’t lash out on the spot.
She sat down opposite Wen Xin without any courtesy, looking her up and down. She was impressed by Wen Xin’s outstanding appearance, feeling that this girl’s appearance posed a great threat to her.
Wen Zhimo also felt that the atmosphere was somewhat awkward at this moment. She pulled her three children over and introduced them to Wen Xin. “These are my children. This is Ma Ruizhe, this is Ma Ruixue, and this is the youngest brother, Ma Ruiyan. This is your sister.”
“Sister, you’re so beautiful…” Ma Ruixue was very lively. When she saw Wen Xin for the first time, she was immediately attracted by her beauty. This was her first time seeing Wen Xin, and she really liked the beautiful sister in front of her.
Ma Ruixue pulled her hand out of Wen Zhimo’s hand and ran excitedly to Wen Xin’s side, sitting down beside her.
Although she was a little shy, she felt happy to be able to admire a beauty like this up close.
The youngest brother also ran to Wen Xin’s side. He was even more open and directly hugged Wen Xin’s arm. “Sister, I’ve seen you. I saw you in Wen Huai’s photo album. He told me you’re my sister…”
The six-year-old boy hugged Wen Xin’s arm affectionately and coquettishly, completely unreserved.
Wen Xin had a cold personality and felt a bit overwhelmed by the enthusiasm of the children. However, she didn’t show any impatience.
Suddenly, she remembered something and took out a few pieces of candy from her pocket, which had been stuffed into her coat by Tan Xingyue. She gave them to the children.
With the last piece of candy, Chen Yunchu thought Wen Xin would give it to her. She was thinking about how to coldly refuse it in her mind.
However, not only did Wen Xin not give it to her, she even peeled off the candy and stuffed it into her mouth without even looking at her.
The moment Wen Xin took out the candy, Chen Yunchu recognized the brand of the candy. She had eaten it once before and knew that this candy was not available in Beijing. She had never been able to buy it.
“Sister, this candy is so delicious…”
“If it’s delicious, next time, sister will bring you some.” Wen Xin gently pinched Ma Ruiyan’s cheek with her hand raised, feeling that this boy who looked like Uncle Ma was quite cute.
After lunch, Wen Xin didn’t stay. She still had to visit Zhuge Jingming’s clinic, and then she had to go to the Mu family’s old house. It seemed like time was running out.
“I’ll have the driver take you. It’s not easy to get a taxi here.”
“Okay…” Wen Xin knew it was difficult to get a taxi here and didn’t refuse Wen Zhimo’s kindness. She didn’t want to waste time.
Seeing that Wen Xin didn’t refuse her, Wen Zhimo happily went out to make a phone call.
Chen Yunchu looked at Wen Xin, her fox-like eyes revealing a smile. She walked to Wen Xin’s side and casually spoke.
“I thought only Wen Huai was living under someone else’s roof. I didn’t expect a wild girl from the countryside to also be living under someone else’s roof. I really don’t know if you people have any self-respect. Don’t you know that living under someone else’s roof is not only difficult but also troublesome? My uncle’s house is not a shelter.”
“A shelter?”
When Wen Xin heard her mention Wen Huai living under someone else’s roof, she couldn’t control the resentment in her heart.
She knew that Ma Wenyuan and Wen Zhimo treated Wen Huai as their own child, but she never expected an outsider to think of Wen Huai as living under someone else’s roof.
Wen Xin turned her head and smiled coldly, danger flickering in her bright eyes, as she disdainfully spoke.
“Go back and find out who Wen Huai is. Even Ma Wenyuan wouldn’t dare say such things here. Also, find out why the Ma family has its current status.”
Wen Xin withdrew her gaze with a cold attitude, her tone carrying a warning.
“I won’t hold it against you today, but next time, if I hear you say something like this about Wen Huai again, don’t blame me for not being polite to you!”
Chen Yunchu was shocked by Wen Xin’s strong aura. She couldn’t believe that Wen Xin would directly call out her uncle’s name like that. Wasn’t that extremely impolite?
She had heard about Wen Xin’s background, only knowing that Wen Xin had grown up in a poor town, but she never expected her to have such a strong aura.
“Miss, these are some snacks that I especially had the kitchen prepare. You used to love these snacks when you were a child. Could you leave me a contact method? Even if you don’t come back, I can still prepare some snacks and things you like to eat and send them to you…”
The butler really didn’t want Wen Xin to leave. Since Wen Xin came back, he felt that the whole mansion had regained its vitality..
