Chapter 1875: Leave Wen Corporation to Me as My Dowry

No matter how hard Chu Jingnan racked his brains, he would never have guessed that the big boss behind Lanxin Company was Wen Xinya.

Xia Ruya was the same.

They never imagined that just as Xia Ruya was scheming how to make the Wen Family cast Wen Xinya out in disgrace so that she herself could step back in her place—Wen Xinya had already been developing her own career.

Just as Chu Jingnan was thinking about how to make use of his talents and abilities to get close to Xiao Zhiyuan and officially return to the Xiao Family—Wen Xinya had already attained some success in her career.

Just as they had been busy thinking about how to deal with Wen Xinya—she had already developed her career to astounding heights.

Xia Ruya and Chu Jingnan were very shrewd and manipulative, but their viewpoint was too narrow. All they could see was the Wen Family and the Xiao Family. They were like frogs trapped within a well, with only a limited view of the sky.

As for Wen Xinya herself, she had indeed once felt that the Wen Corporation should belong to her. But since Lanxin Company’s rapid development, she realized how narrow-minded she had been in her fight to gain control over the Wen Family.

Thankfully, she had Grampy’s guidance, as well as a formidable and powerful man like Si Yiyan by her side. As a result, she had already let go of her vengeful hatred toward Xia Ruya and Chu Jingnan. Instead, she had focused on developing her own career.

Now, all she cared about was how to further develop Lanxin Company into a world-renowned business enterprise.

Meanwhile, the Wen Family was just an outlet for her jewelry design dreams.

She had other ambitions.

Old Mr. Wen looked at his granddaughter with a conflicted expression on his face. He sighed. “So you are the boss behind Lanxin Company. Xinya, you truly have unfathomable depths.”

As worldly as Old Mr. Wen was, he had been shocked to the core when Xinya had appeared before him in her capacity as the Chairman of Lanxin Company, to propose an alliance between her company and the Wen Corporation.

He already knew this granddaughter of his held many secrets. But he didn’t realize just how astounding her secrets were.

He had always admired Lanxin Company’s boss, who had defended against a hostile takeover, protected local brands and defeated the T-K Group. He had also often tried to guess her identity. But never in his wildest dreams did he ever think she was his own granddaughter.

Wen Xinya looked apologetically at her Grandpa. “Grandpa, I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to keep this from you.”

She really felt quite guilty over this.

Most of her close friends and associates knew she was the boss behind Lanxin Company. Her Grandpa was the only exception. In the beginning, she didn’t tell him as she was still guarded against the Wen Family. Thereafter, she just didn’t know how to raise the subject.

In addition, she didn’t want Grandpa to help out with the Lanxin Company. She wished to develop the company through her own efforts and achieve the recognition of everyone.

“I’m not unhappy at all. I just feel rather shocked.”

Going by Lanxin Company’s development history, Xinya must have set it up soon after returning to the Wen Family. At that point in time, Xinya’s status within the Wen Family was still very uncertain due to Xia Ruya’s presence.

It had been so many years since Xinya returned to the Wen Family, and Old Mr. Wen now knew his granddaughter pretty well. He understood the reason why she had never told him of this.

All sorts of emotions roiled within his heart.

Nevertheless, he knew he had no right to be unhappy at the fact that Xinya was guarded against the Wen Family at the beginning.

Wen Xinya heaved a sigh of relief and smiled. “Grandpa, are you really not angry with me?”

She had kept such a major secret from Grandpa and didn’t expect him to forgive her so easily.

“It’s a good thing that my granddaughter is so talented and capable, and able to carve out her own career without any help from others. You have even managed to surpass your predecessors. This is something worth being happy about, why would I be angry?”

As he observed the guilt, remorse and unease on his granddaughter’s face, all his prior complicated thoughts were instantly dissolved, replaced by pride and comfort.

Wen Xinya felt somewhat abashed by Grandpa’s praise. Her cheeks turned pink. “Thank you, Grandpa.”

The more Old Mr. Wen thought about it, the more thrilled he felt. His earlier shock had turned into excitement. “Hahahaha! Now, I very much look forward to the press conference the day after tomorrow. The grand revealing of your identity will create a huge uproar. I wonder how many people in upper-class society will secretly be jealous of me having such an exceptional granddaughter. Hahahaha…”

At this point, he was feeling an indescribable sense of elation.

His son Wen Haowen had been such a disgrace, but this granddaughter of his now enabled him to lift his head with pride.

He had already thought of how he would brag about this to his friends.

Looking at Grandpa’s cocky manner, Wen Xinya couldn’t resist stamping her feet. “Grandpa, don’t make fun of me!”

She wasn’t used to Grandpa behaving in such a dramatic manner.

Old Mr. Wen continued laughing heartily. “I’m not making fun of you at all. I’m praising you.” He then tried to stifle his laughter and said, “No wonder you are unwilling to take over the Wen Corporation. It’s not good enough for you.”

Lanxin Company had such a bright and limitless future ahead of it. This was something the Wen Corporation could never compare favorably to.

Wen Xinya knew Grandpa was joking, but she couldn’t help feeling somewhat dismayed. “I’m not taking over the Wen Corporation as Jinyu is the rightful heir. The future of the Wen Corporation will be in his hands. But if Grandpa doesn’t mind, you can leave the Wen Corporation to me as my dowry. I certainly wouldn’t mind.”

Since Jinyu was born, Wen Xinya never harbored any thoughts of being the heir to the Wen Family.

In fact, she actually felt a great sense of relief now that the Wen Family had another heir.

However, she was slightly peeved at Grandpa’s teasing, and so purposely said those words.

Old Mr. Wen laughed. “I’m more than happy to leave the Wen Corporation to you as your dowry. Anyway, you love Jinyu so much that I’m not at all worried you would leave him at a disadvantage.”

He had always meant to leave the Wen Corporation to Xinya and had not changed his mind.

As for Jinyu, he was not worried at all. Xinya doted on him and would naturally make sure that he received his rightful share.

Wen Xinya stamped her feet again. “Grandpa, can we talk seriously, please?”

Old Mr. Wen suppressed his laughter and looked at her.

Wen Xinya returned his gaze with a stern expression. “Grandpa, I’m being serious.”

Old Mr. Wen replied, “So am I.”

Grandfather and granddaughter stared at each other, neither willing to back down. It was obvious they would not come to an agreement over this matter.
