Wen Xinya smirked slowly and thought to herself, Grandpa really is shrewd. The servant of the Li Family, Uncle Yu, thinks that he’s so superior to us and acts like Xia Ruya had been treated unfairly in the Wen Family home. He thinks he can teach us a lesson and assert dominance so as to back his missy up. 

However, he has forgotten that we’re in Capital city, not Harbor City!

Perhaps, in Harbor City, Uncle Yu may be greatly respected by Old Mr. Li and everyone else around him. However, we’re in Capital city, which is the center of China’s power, politics and wealth. Anyone who has a powerful status in Capital city is definitely not to be trifled with. Besides, all the tycoons and prestigious families here all place great emphasis on rules. 

Uncle Yu did not have the rights to speak at all.

Old Mr. Wen took a glance at the respectful Butler Yu who was standing beside him and said, “Butler Yu, please take Mr. Yu to the hall for some tea. It’s been a long time since I met Ruya and I’d like to speak to her.”

His words were astonishingly lethal, though they sounded cordial.

A look of dejection formed on Uncle Yu’s face because his plans had backfired. He frantically suppressed his emotions and said, “Old Mr. Wen, you’re being too courteous. Old Sir was the one who wanted us to visit you today.”

Uncle Ye lost terribly during his first conflict with Old Mr. Wen. However, he was a servant from a prestigious family and hence, had a high emotional quotient. He soon adjusted his attitude and spoke in a humble tone.

This old man and the little one from the Wen Family are really tough nuts to crack. I wonder how Missy even dealt with them.

Old Mr. Wen said coldly, “When I was younger, I visited Harbor City a couple of times and I’ve also met Old Mr. Li a few times before too. I wonder if he’s still as healthy as he was back then.”

Old Mr. Li was more senior than Old Mr. Wen, and since Uncle Yu had mentioned about Old Mr. Li, Old Mr. Wen could not be ill-mannered either. Hence, his composure and polite attitude made him look collected.

Just as Uncle Yu was about to answer, Xia Ruya said smilingly, “Thank you for your concern, Old Mr. Wen. My Grandpa is old in his years and he’s no longer as healthy as he used to be, though his health is not ailing.”

Old Mr. Wen said with a smile, “People tend to be in better health when they’re happy. Now that Old Mr. Li has you to accompany him, he’d definitely be delighted. His health will improve.”

He sounded genuine and sincere. After all… the situation in the Wen Family was similar to that of the Li Family. Hence, others would think that he was just feeling empathetic…

Xia Ruya said smilingly, “Just like you, Grandpa Wen.”

Xia Ruya’s words seemed to be full of sincerity and her voice was also much gentler than usual.

Old Mr. Wen remained silent.

Wen Xinya smiled and watched as Old Mr. Wen and Xia Ruya spoke to each other out of courtesy. Actually, they were just being sarcastic to each other.

Although Uncle Yu sounded much more polite than before, he was clearly trying to use Old Mr. Li to gain dominance.

However, Old Mr. Wen obviously wouldn’t fall for it. In order to foil Uncle Yu’s plans, Old Mr. Wen deliberately asked about Old Mr. Li’s health. Xia Ruya decided to answer, for fear that Old Mr. Li would embarrass her again.
