Reborn Aristocrat: Return of the Vicious Heiress - Chapter 1251
Chapter 1251: Who’s the Real Pawn?
Wen Xinya was still a little glum when she returned home, for she was upset about the fact that she had been used by the owner of Boya Pavilion.
At this moment, Si Yiyan was seated on the couch and typing away on his keyboard. Upon hearing her footsteps, he exclaimed without raising his head, “You’re back!”
Seeing how busy he was, Wen Xinya poured him a glass of fruit tea and placed it on the coffee table before taking a seat beside him.
They often say that men were the most charming when they were focusing on work. It was indeed true.
Si Yiyan was dressed in an emerald shirt which made him look refined, mature and masculine. He folded his sleeves to reveal a small segment of his fair but muscular and toned forearm and his long, slender fingers. He was also typing on the keyboard at an incredible speed, his agile fingers exuding his tender and masculine side.
Si Yiyan slowed down and finally stopped. He picked up the mulberry-flavored tea and took a sip. “Have you been drinking?”
Wen Xinya looked away, not daring to make eye contact with him. “Yeah… I was in a good mood, so I only had two glasses. I really only had two glasses. I drank less red wine because it makes me drunk.”
After getting herself dead drunk and making a fool out of herself in a drunken stupor on several occasions, Wen Xinya had already developed a phobia of drinking and hence, would refrain from drinking whenever she could during her gatherings with her friends. She would only misbehave and act inappropriately whenever she was with Si Yiyan when she was drunk.
Si Yiyan’s smile stiffened and the corner of his eyes raised a little. Actually, he just wanted to sniff for the smell of alcohol on her body and hence, asked the casual question. As long as she knew her limits and stopped getting drunk, he would allow her to drink.
Wen Xinya felt that the topic of alcohol was rather dangerous and hence, frantically changed the subject. “What are you busy with?”
Si Yiyan answered, “I’m busy with the matters regarding the Korean-Chinese Alliance. I’m trying to use the time to find out more about the alliance while Gu Yuexi is in charge of Lucifer now.”
Since Gu Yuexi was in Russia, the investigation of the alliance was reaching a bottleneck and he had been trying to analyze every report of theirs in a bid to find out more constructive information.
The mention of the alliance made Wen Xinya feel worse. They were practically society’s parasite. “Is Gu Yuexi doing alright in Russia? Why don’t you go and help him out?”
Although Si Yiyan trusted Gu Yuexi and had faith in his abilities, Wen Xinya felt that the matters about the Korean-Chinese Alliance were extremely important and regardless of how competent Gu Yuexi may be, he’d still just be Si Yiyan’s right-hand man. He could take charge of their strategies, but Si Yiyan was the only one who held power and authority since he was the mind and soul of Lucifer.
Si Yiyan shook his head and said, “No need for that. Gu Yuexi can still handle the situation for now. There’s no need to alarm them yet.”
Things in Russia were still temporarily under control and what they needed to do now, was to find out more information about the Korean-Chinese Alliance before wiping out their members in Russia. On the other hand, the members in China were hiding behind the Zhang Corporation and causing chaos in the Wen Corporation. Since the entertainment city project had just begun, they would be able to use the chance to find out more constructive information.
