Reborn Aristocrat: Return of the Vicious Heiress - Chapter 1236

Chapter 1236: You’re Still Thinking of Plotting Against Others Even at This Juncture

At this moment, everyone was shocked speechless by Wen Xinya’s actions. They had never expected Wen Xinya to do that and not spare Xia Ruya from any embarrassment.

Ye Feiyua was filled with joy and thought to herself, I knew it. Xinya would never let herself be taken advantage of.

Du Ruoxin stared at Wen Xinya and thought, This woman may be a little silly, but I like what she did. Interesting!

The owner of Boya Pavilion had no idea if she should stop Wen Xinya or not, for she was afraid that she might end up getting implicated again.

Xia Ruya was overwhelmed by the excruciating pain of her wounds which had begun bleeding again because of the alcohol. Xia Ruya felt incredibly ashamed and she could even hear the sounds of everyone else snickering at her.

Xia Ruya was covered by waves of resentment and feelings of humiliation.

Wen Xinya snorted with laughter and sneered. “You’re still trying to set me up even at this juncture. Do you really think I’d be so silly as to let you make yourself seem like the innocent party?”

Wen Xinya was direct and straightforward with her words. Everyone was confused by what she had said and did not quite understand what she meant. However, some quick-witted ones had already got what she meant. They then looked at Xia Ruya in disdain.

Xia Ruya shook her head pathetically and spluttered. “Wen Xinya, don’t accuse me. That’s not what I meant. I really just wanted to express the fact that I did not harm you.”

Wen Xinya laughed sarcastically and stared at Xia Ruya condescendingly. “Are you silly or am I just a fool? If you didn’t choose to be a smart aleck, you might have really just managed to shirk the responsibility and clear your name. Yet… some people just like to think that they’re so smart and treat others like fools whom she can manipulate.”

Xia Ruya thought that she was smart but ended up harming herself instead. There were plenty of intelligent people in this world and Xia Ruya was not one of them. She laid a trap for Wen Xinya and thought that she could perhaps make herself seem like the innocent party. Even if she could not push the blame to someone else completely, she thought that she would at least not be accused of harming others.

Xia Ruya stared at Wen Xinya in bewilderment and shook her head frantically. “Wen Xinya, please pardon my ignorance but I don’t know what you’re talking about. I’ve never tried to poison you at all, regardless of whether you believe me or not.”

At this moment, Xia Ruya was actually not as calm as she seemed to be on the surface. Wen Xinya’s words were like a million daggers being pierced through her heart forcefully. She could not help but regret trying to set Wen Xinya up just so she could make herself seem like the innocent party.

She thought that she would no longer have to face the sly Wen Xinya even if she could not stop everyone else from suspecting that she had poisoned Wen Xinya. At this point, she could vaguely sense that everyone was staring at her in disdain. She knew that she was in hot soup.

Wen Xinya said coldly, “You don’t get it? Seems like you’re all muddled up, Miss Xia. It’s alright, I’ll help you become more clearheaded.”

She then glanced at the waitress beside her.

Xia Ruya seemed to have been greatly agitated. She screamed and hollered. “Wen Xinya, I already said that I didn’t poison you. Why do you have to insult and humiliate me like this?”
