Reborn Aristocrat: Return of the Vicious Heiress

Chapter 56 - Try It, You Might Find It to Be a Pleasant Surprise!



Wen Xinya seemed to recall something and continued, “I used to go hungry when I was young. There was once when I picked up a packet of leftovers in a rubbish bin outside a restaurant. The restaurant owner came chasing after me and called me a rascal. Those leftovers were meant for pigs. Nevertheless, when I was about to gobble the food, a beggar came from nowhere and snatched it away from me. I was so devastated that I cried my heart out.”

Si Yiyan remained silent. He already knew about Wen Xinya’s past. But he had a different feeling when hearing from her own mouth.

It seemed like she suddenly realized she had brought up a serious topic. Wen Xinya digressed. “How about you? What was your childhood like?”

Si Yiyan thought for a few moments and then started recollecting his past. “I was a spoiled and timid kid. I would just cry whenever I suffered setbacks. Crying also allowed me to get what I wanted easily. Father was always angry with me, but Mother thought that was fine. At least I would not get into any trouble.”

Father was a pessimist. With a character like that, the large family business became a burden to him. Even his colleagues and the pioneers of the company disapproved of him. If his parents had not passed away, he would probably grow up living the life his mother had wished for him—a simple and ordinary life!

Like what his mother said, he was just an ordinary boy. That was the reason the elder pioneers of the company spared him. And his father’s allies had a chance to bring him back to the mainland.

Wen Xinya was surprised to hear that. Looking at the present day Si Yiyan, she was unable to associate him to this younger version he described. But subconsciously, she knew he did not lie to her.

Wen Xinya laughed. “What a story! But I like it. This pearl shall be my lucky charm from now on.”
