After dinner, Tao sent her back to Lan Feng Institute . She had been absent from school for two weeks because of her injury . It was time she returned to school and continue with revision .
The media had already widely reported about her abduction and being an influential figure herself, everyone cast their attention on her as soon as she stepped inside the institute .
“Look, Wen Xinya is here . ”
Someone gasped in shock and everyone else turned to look at Wen Xinya .
Carrying her backpack, Wen Xinya entered to see that everyone seemed to be staring at her like she was a monkey in the zoo . All eyes were on her ever since she stepped into the institute .
“It really is her! Seems like she’s already recovered . ”
“Yeah, she seems to be rather energized and radiant . She’s definitely alright . ”
“We’re already counting down to the final year examination and everyone is seizing every second to study . We all wish that we can use the time that we spend on eating and going to the loo to revise more . She took such a long break to recover . I wonder if she can catch up . ”
“She should be able to! After all, she has always been doing well in school and she often takes note of the important information . There shouldn’t be any problems if she works hard enough . ”
“I find it a little iffy . The final year examinations are just around the corner and she missed two whole weeks of revision, not two days . Don’t forget what happened to the Wen Family lately . Her father was involved in a scandal because of his illicit affair and became a laughing stock . As the heiress of the Wen Family, how could she not be affected…”
“You guys are right . As his daughter, she’d definitely be affected . How could she possibly focus on revising? Ah… I find her rather pitiful too . ”
“Don’t be silly, she’s the mighty Miss Wen . There’s nothing pitiful about her . ”
“I sympathize with her too . She lost her mother since birth and led a tough life on her own for fifteen years . She went through a hard time reuniting with her family and yet, her evil stepmother and stepsister plotted against her . The Wen Family’s adoptive daughter often gets in her way too . She finally made it to eighteen . Yet… she got kidnapped . So many catastrophic events are popping up in her life one after another . Now, her father is embroiled in such a scandal…”
“There was peace in the Wen Family before she returned . I reckon her birth characters must have clashed with the Wen Family . She jinxed her own mother and wreaked havoc in the Wen Family…”
“We’re already in the modern era and you still believe in such superstitions!”
“Actually, I think he makes sense . Think about it! There’s bound to be something detestable about a pitiful person . She’s meant to be a jinx . She’s going to jinx her parents and her siblings… Anyway, whoever bumps into her is going to suffer bad luck . ”
Wen Xinya stopped in her tracks, shocked to hear such comments about herself . She walked towards them and questioned, “Are you talking about me?”
Anyone would feel embarrassed to be caught gossiping about others . The girls immediately turned to look at Wen Xinya who stood elegantly with her back straight, exuding a noble elegance and confidence . Everyone instinctively took a step back, not daring to look her in the eye at all .
Oh dear! What a commanding aura!
Wen Xinya stared at the girls calmly without uttering a single word .
Unable to tolerate the situation, one of them stammered . “I didn’t say that… I… I only heard it from another student from Class 5 of Year 3 . ”
Jiang Yuqian and Xia Ruxue were from Class 5!
Wen Xinya nodded and turned around to leave .
Another girl walked towards her anxiously and said, “Um… I’m sorry . We didn’t gossip about you on purpose . ”
Wen Xinya turned around to look at her . Noticing that she had turned red, Wen Xinya nodded calmly . The members of the upper-class society were particularly believing of superstitions and Xia Ruya loved harming others using reputations . She was merely making use of Jiang Yuqian and Xia Ruxue to spread the gossip about Wen Xinya .
However, that was the only trick Xia Ruya could resort to now .
But Wen Xinya was not in the least bit afraid .
Wen Xinya headed to the classroom and everyone shot her strange glances, perhaps because of the news regarding her abduction and Wen Haowen’s scandal . Of course… it was also partly because of the theory about her being a jinx .
The class president looked at Wen Xinya and said, “The teacher wants to see you . ”
Wen Xinya thanked him calmly and turned around to make her way to the teacher’s office .
Wen Xinya was in Class 1 and the teacher-in-charge was Mr . Zhao, a balding man who was in his forties . He was rather nice and commanded the respect of everyone in Wen Xinya’s class, including herself .
The door was left ajar and Wen Xinya knocked on it gently before entering the office . “Mr . Zhao, I heard you wanted to see me . ”
Mr . Zhao glanced at Wen Xinya and smiled amicably . “Xinya, how’s your health?”
Wen Xinya answered smilingly, “Thank you for your concern, Mr . Zhao . I’ve already completely recovered and I’ll be resuming lessons today . ”
When she left, Mr . Zhao gathered a few other Year 3 teachers and some of Wen Xinya’s friends to visit her at the hospital .
Feeling heartened, Mr . Zhao said, “Good to hear! A lot of your schoolmates have been very concerned about you because you were hospitalized . ”
Due to the fact that she was an influential figure, many of her juniors held her with great respect and admiration . Ever since she was hospitalized, lots of them had been asking about her condition .
Wen Xinya smiled and said nothing .
Mr . Zhao continued, “You were on medical leave for two weeks . Now that you’re back in school, you should focus on your academics and ease yourself into revision mode . Start preparing for the final year examinations . ” He then continued, “I’ve heard about your family’s situation too . I believe you’re intelligent enough to know what’s the most important thing for you right now . Hence, I hope you won’t let those matters affect you . ”
Wen Xinya was the most unique student that he had ever met, though she was not the smartest or the most talented . However, he greatly admired her for her drive and tenacity .
Extremely touched, Wen Xinya said, “I know, Mr . Zhao . I won’t let you down . ”
Mr . Zhao grinned widely and retrieved a thick journal from the drawer before handing it to her . “These are the notes that you’ve missed out on in the past two weeks . Bring them home and revise them well . You may look for me to clarify any doubts that you may have . ”
Wen Xinya was extremely touched as she grabbed the thick and heavy stack of notes . “Thank you, Mr . Zhao . ”
Mr . Zhao waved and said, “Alright, if there’s nothing else, you may go back to the classroom to do your revision!”
Wen Xinya thanked him again before leaving the office . She could sense the malice from the rest of her schoolmates, as well as their sarcastic remarks . Although there were some who gloated over her misfortune, there were also those who were genuinely concerned about her .
