Chapter 818: 818
Ever since Wen Xinya left Si Yiyan and returned to the event hall, she had been engaging in conversations and socializing with the other guests . She could feel an intense gaze fixed on her body and following her everywhere she went . She knew… that Si Yiyan was the one staring at her .
She was the main focus of the product launch and she was surrounded by the reporters as soon as the opening ceremony ended . They asked her several questions about the Ai Shang products, as well as the publicity and advertising matters . But of course, the main point was the charity organization that Old Mr . Wen was planning to establish .
She answered all of their questions with a smile on her face .
“Miss Wen, I heard that your wish is to be admitted to Capital University . How confident are you of getting into your dream university?” At such events, there was bound to be uninvited trouble .
Wen Xinya was not bothered at all . She knew that everyone else was curious about her answer, and not just the reporters . “Confidence? Hmm, I’m very confident in myself, of course . I’ve passed all my mock tests with flying colors, but the final examinations are full of uncertainties . The best I can do is to prepare myself as much as I can for unexpected situations . ”
Mock tests had always been used as a means for estimating a student’s final examination results . Since she had mentioned about her mock test results, the reporters would definitely find a way to find her actual results . If she were to be unable to get into the university of her choice, it would be due to unforeseen circumstances .
Her answer was reasonable and natural . However, the minorities did not plan to let her off . “Miss Wen, you mean, if you fail to get into Capital University, it won’t be your fault, and the actual problem lies with the unforeseen uncertainties? The final examinations are around the corner, and everyone is actively revising for it . Miss Wen, you joined the Wen Corporation out of the blue and distracted yourself from studying . Isn’t that just because you’re overconfident and too trusting of your own abilities?”
The reporter was indirectly trying to say that she was being complacent and self-conceited .
A sudden tension filled the air, and all the reporters felt that the question was too blunt, though they were rather excited to hear her answer .
Wen Xinya kept her eyes fixed on the reporter and gibed . “Well said . However, I’m very curious about why everyone is so bent on making an issue out of which university I’m hoping to be admitted . Does it matter whether or not I can get into Capital University based on my results? What matters is that I achieve my goal in the end . ”
She was blatantly trying to say that it didn’t matter if she couldn’t get into the university based on her own abilities, so long as she got admitted to it in the end!
Everyone was astounded by her answer!
They were speechless .
Wen Xinya was not bothered by the issue . However, she had heard some rumors about Xiao Zhiyuan and Chu Jingnan .
“Did you see that young chap beside Xiao Zhiyuan, the CEO of the Xiao Corporation? He looks so much like CEO Xiao! He’s just like a chip off the old block . It’s as if they’re father and son . ”
“Hey, I wouldn’t have realized it if you didn’t tell me . Not only do they resemble each other, but they also have the same aura too . The two of them look just like a pair of father and son!”
“Shh! Don’t spout any nonsense . CEO Xiao has always enjoyed a good reputation in the circle and he has never been embroiled in any scandals . How could he possibly have an illegitimate son?”

“Psht, you’re really very naive . Wen Haowen was just as loving with his wife, Ning Shuqian . There weren’t any scandals or rumors about him, either . But look at what happened in the end… It’s not your first day being in this circle . Everyone knows that these people love putting on a front . ”
“You have a point . I heard that this young chap is named Chu Jingnan and he comes from a single-parent family . He used to study at Lan Feng Institute, where he took on the role of the president of the student union . As soon as he graduated, he joined the Xiao Corporation as a part-timer and managed to get into the good books of CEO Xiao within just a year . He even got to follow CEO Xiao to today’s product launch . He’s just a green-horned young chap and yet, he has already achieved such brilliant results . Do you really believe this to be a coincidence?”
Everyone looked at each other in shock . Clearly, none of them believed it to be coincidental .
Everyone knew how complicated things were in major corporations . Hence, they began to suspect that there was an illicit relationship between Xiao Zhiyuan and Chu Jingnan .
The upper-class society had always been sensitive to such matters . Everyone had eyes to see for themselves and hence, Wen Xinya was not surprised to hear their speculations . However… she felt that the rumors would be the catalyst of Chu Jingnan’s reunion with the Xiao Family .
However, those were not the focus of her attention . She realized that it had been a long time since she saw Wen Haowen . He was actually not around…
As the CEO of the Wen Corporation and the host of the Ai Shang product launch, how could Wen Haowen leave the event halfway?
Sensing that something was amiss, she hurriedly looked dor Secretary Cao and said, “Secretary Cao, hurry and help me check where my father is and what he’s doing now . ”

She knew Wen Haowen too well and, although the matter regarding his adulterous affair had already been resolved, his reputation had still been negatively affected, and the product launch was a chance for him to salvage his reputation and give himself a new image . How could he possibly let it go? Unless something had gone wrong, he wouldn’t have left halfway .
Secretary Cao hurriedly said, “Don’t worry, Missy . I’ll be right on it!”
Secretary Cao turned around and left . Wen Xinya yelled to stop him in his tracks . “Regardless of what happens, you must inform me as soon as you find out . As for Grandpa… don’t worry, I’ll tell him myself . ”
Secretary Cao was Old Mr . Wen’s personal secretary . She could not be sure of whether he would turn her down or not .
After a moment of hesitation, Secretary Cao nodded and said, “Rest assured, Missy . ”
Wen Xinya heaved a sigh of relief and said, “Thank you, Secretary Cao . ”
Secretary Cao turned around and left .
After Secretary Cao left, Wen Xinya observed the situation in the venue . The climax of the Ai Shang product launch was about to begin soon, and they could not afford to make any slip-ups .

At this moment, Old Mr . Wen walked towards her and asked, “Xinya, do you know where your father has gone? I haven’t seen him in a while . How dare he leave the guests midway instead of entertaining them? He’s the CEO of the Wen Corporation and yet, he’s gone missing . ”
He felt that Wen Haowen was extremely unreliable . Hence, he could not analyze the situation objectively as Wen Xinya did . Besides, he had just found out about Wen Haowen’s disappearance and hence, did not find it suspicious yet .
Wen Xinya answered smilingly, “Father has a lot to manage today . He must have been held up by something else . If you’re still worried, I’ll go look for him now!”
There should be some news from Secretary Cao soon!
Old Mr . Wen nodded and said, “That’s good . Don’t let your father get up to anything funny again, especially during such an important event . ”
He had an ominous hunch after seeing Jiang Shaofeng .
Wen Xinya agreed .
