Chapter 1911: Get Lost from the Li Corporation Now
The doors to the meeting room were pushed open as Xia Ruya charged in. The originally cordial and relaxed atmosphere transformed into a suppressive silence at her sudden interruption. Everyone turned toward Xia Ruya with disapproving expressions, as if gazing at a rude and uncivilized intruder.
Xue Yishan’s face was chilly as he said in a direct manner, “It looks like the Li Corporation’s employees are somewhat lacking in manners. Any Tom, Dick or Harry has the gall to barge into a meeting room.”
The Li Corporation group within the meeting room exchanged glances.
Everyone could feel the thick animosity the Wen Corporation had toward Xia Ruya. But no one stepped forward to soothe things over. It could be seen just how unpopular Xia Ruya was in the Li Corporation.
Wen Xinya gazed at Xia Ruya with a neutral expression.
Xia Ruya was wearing a white blazer over a sky-blue shirt and slim trousers. She exuded elegance and grace. But the fury in her eyes as she glared at Wen Xinya and her harsh expression destroyed the overall harmony of her beauty. She had transformed into a true-blue “villainess”.
With Wen Xinya as a foil, Xia Ruya’s leading female role as a pure and kindhearted white lotus had completely degraded into an evil supporting character.
“Wen Xinya, leave now. Get lost from the Li Corporation. This is not somewhere you can come as you please.” Xia Ruya had already somewhat lost control of her emotions. Her usually melodious voice now sounded strident with rage.
At this point, all she could see was Wen Xinya.
The very woman whom she hated to the core and whom she desperately wished to tear off her skin and flesh, smash up her bones and chop her to pieces.
She had come to the conclusion that Wen Xinya was at the Li Corporation to gloat, to make fun of her, to provoke her, to see her at her most wretched state.
Wen Xinya took her time to pack up the freshly-signed documents. Then, she said in a bland tone, “It’s not up to you whether I can come to the Li Corporation. From now on, the Li Corporation no longer belongs to you.”
Wen Xinya slowly stood up and her black business suit accentuated her slender, yet curvy figure. She exuded an elegant and enigmatic presence.
It was a stark contrast to Xia Ruya’s white profile.
At this moment, black and white clashed with a strong intensity as they engaged each other face to face. However, it was clear that the calm and composed Wen Xinya held the upper hand.
Xia Ruya was momentarily taken aback but quickly regained her composure. She retorted sharply. “Wen Xinya, it’s true that the Li Corporation is on the brink of collapse, and it’s true it will soon no longer belong to me. But no matter what, the Li Corporation belongs to those with the surname Li and has nothing to do with you Wen people. You better get lost now.”
So what if the Li Corporation collapsed?
She still had some resources and could help Chu Jingnan take over the Xiao Corporation and expand it so greatly that even Lanxin Company would not be able to touch them.
Moreover, she had fallen, but the Li Corporation in Harbor City was still standing. She was still the heir and mistress to the Li Corporation in Harbor City. As long as she had the support of Grandpa, it was only a matter of time before she would once again have Wen Xinya under her feet.
Hence, even if she had lost to Wen Xinya for the time being, she didn’t lose her spirit. She still exuded an arrogant air when faced with Wen Xinya.
She had no idea that this sense of arrogance and superiority would send her straight to hell with no chance of redemption.
Wen Xinya gave a light smile as her eyes flashed with obvious scorn and ridicule. “Miss Xia, please be clear of the situation before you speak. Otherwise, you will just be making a fool of yourself.”
In order to ensure this meeting would go smoothly, Old Mr. Li had carried it out behind Xia Ruya’s back. Until this very moment, she had no idea what was happening, and so was standing right before Wen Xinya with the arrogance of a Li Family heiress. Xia Ruya probably didn’t know just how much of a clown she was like now. It was a downright joke.
She truly felt sad for Xia Ruya.
Things had already progressed thus far and she still had no idea what was going on.
At this point, she had already been betrayed and deserted by her family and the company. She had lost everything.
However, she still found it somewhat strange. Even if Xia Ruya had no idea beforehand, going by her typical smarts, she should have been able to guess what was going on just by looking at the scene in this meeting room. Her intelligence couldn’t have possibly declined to such a low level. She had even shed her flawless Saint Mary mask to reveal her hideous ugliness underneath. This was totally not in line with Xia Ruya’s usual perfectionist standards.
A sense of alert against Xia Ruya started to rise in Wen Xinya’s heart.
How in the world was she to know that after suffering multiple failures and an illness rampaging her health, Xia Ruya’s mind, spirit, and body were harboring immense pressure and agony—such that she was no longer able to maintain her perfect image?
“Wen Xinya, what do you mean by that?”
Xia Ruya was stunned. Her raging anger was suddenly doused as if someone had splashed a tub of ice water over her. She glanced around the meeting room, taking in the sight of the Wen and Li parties, and felt that something was wrong. Her eyes widened in shock when she noticed a particular someone. Her heart filled with dread, feeling like a huge gush of water was about to engulf her.
It was actually Grandpa’s most trusted Special Assistant Zhu.
Special Assistant Zhu, the one who was as good as Grandpa’s personal representative, and who was more or less always by Grandpa’s side?
What was he doing in Capital city?
He had even secretly met up with Wen Xinya behind her back.
In addition… if she was not wrong, those standing by his side were the directors on Li Corporation’s board, all of whom were highly regarded by Grandpa, as well as the Li Corporation’s legal team!
Following that, she noticed a similar grouping of Wen Corporation members on Wen Xinya’s side.
What in the world were they doing?
Wen Xinya handed the signed contract over to Xue Yishan and sashayed elegantly over to Xia Ruya. She exuded a breathtaking sense of authority, giving off sharpness that felt extremely suppressive.
Xia Ruya noticed Wen Xinya’s actions and her eyes were fixed upon the document that she had handed over to Xue Yishan. For a moment there, her eyes widened and she couldn’t tear her gaze away.
By now, Wen Xinya was already standing right in front of her. She came to a halt and looked at Xia Ruya with pitying eyes. “Let me tell you. From now on, the Li Corporation completely belongs to the Wen Family. It will no longer bear the surname Li.”
The moment Wen Xinya said this to Xia Ruya, it was clear that Wen Xinya had already totally crushed Xia Ruya’s remaining pride and dignity under her foot.
And Xia Ruya had now completely lost everything and had reached the point of zero redemption.
