Reborn As Super Heiress-Chapter 173 - 170 Wu Jingyi’s White Knight

Chapter 173: Chapter 170 Wu Jingyi’s White Knight

Wu Jingyi was moved by the offer, but thinking of the disgusting, potbellied men who had entangled her before, a struggle flashed in her eyes, and she hesitated before tentatively asking, “Sister Chen, what does the Liang Family do?”

Sister Chen, unaware of Wu Jingyi’s thoughts, smilingly explained, “I’ve heard that the Imperial Capital Liang Family is a noble and wealthy hereditary family, with vast business interests. Their heir is only a few years older than you and is still single.”

A wave of confusion washed over Wu Jingyi, “How could someone like that not find any woman he desires? Why would he come to our club?”

Sister Chen snorted with a smile, “You’ve stumped me there. Wealthy people these days have many odd preferences. Some like glamorous and provocative women, others prefer tender and delicate ‘Lolitas’. The hearts of the wealthy are truly difficult to read.”

Wu Jingyi agreed with this, but the unpleasant memories of past encounters at the club made her somewhat hesitant. She had no clue about the disposition of Young Master Liang, and if he was anything like those sleazy men from before, she’d rather not go at all.

Not hearing a response from Wu Jingyi, Sister Chen’s face turned stern, and she said in a low voice, “I’ve already helped you a lot, but you can’t always depend on me to bring you opportunities while you just reap the benefits. I’m bringing you this message now, and I need a clear answer from you. If you’re not interested, I’ll find someone else, but don’t ever expect me to give you any more updates!”

Wu Jingyi still wanted to play it cool but didn’t expect Sister Chen to turn hostile so quickly, leaving her somewhat at a loss.

When she first arrived in the Imperial Capital, she faced numerous rejections and fully understood how difficult it was to earn a living and support herself in the city.

If Sister Chen abandoned her, she’d no longer have anyone to rely on, and her future living expenses and tuition would be insecure. She had no idea how she would make money.

“Then, what do you want me to do?” Wu Jingyi’s heart fluttered as she hurriedly asked, trying to ingratiate herself.

The impatience on Sister Chen’s face vanished upon hearing this, and she smiled smugly, “Of course, you should find a way to get close to this wealthy young master. You’re so beautiful, and a top student from Medical University. With your figure and skills, it won’t take more than a minute to latch onto this scion of nobility, right? I shouldn’t need to teach you that, should I? If you marry into the Liang Family, you’ll become a lady of high society, and everyone will depend on you to live well!”

Imagining herself marrying into a wealthy family in a wedding dress, Wu Jingyi’s heart started pounding rapidly, and it warmed her entire being.

She had seen TV dramas where Cinderellas married into wealthy families and transformed into enviable, limitless phoenixes amidst the admiration and jealousy of countless women.

Coming to the Imperial Capital, Wu Jingyi saw firsthand the benefits and temptations of money and fully recognized that having a rich and powerful husband was more important than anything else.

“Alright, if I can truly get my wish, I will surely not forget Sister Chen’s kindness,” Wu Jingyi blurted out her agreement.

What did it mean for Huo Sining to be an office worker at a foreign company in Guangcheng, still depending on Cousin Xu and her bosses to make a living?

If she could marry into the Liang Family, she would be able to enjoy endless glory and wealth. With a mere wave of her hand, she would have a crowd of people waiting on her, living a much more carefree and happy life than Huo Sining!

“Alright, I’ll make the arrangements for you now,” Sister Chen said, getting exactly the response she was waiting for from Wu Jingyi. It was up to each person to make the match successful.

Even though Sister Chen didn’t hold much hope for the delicate-looking Wu Jingyi, nobody knew for sure what kind of woman the guests preferred. Maybe Young Master Liang liked innocent ‘white flowers’. Casting a wide net was never wrong; if someone managed to marry into a wealthy family, she would always reap the benefits.

Under Sister Chen’s arrangement, Wu Jingyi came to the club that very night, but it wasn’t until she entered that she realized there were too many women aspiring to marry into wealth and become Cinderellas.

When the word spread that the Liang Family’s Young Master was visiting the club, the women there naturally did their utmost to adorn themselves. By comparison, Wu Jingyi, who was more of a naive flower, didn’t stand out at all.

Wu Jingyi felt both anxious and angry, grinding her teeth with hatred for the women standing in front of her, yet she was utterly powerless to do anything about it.

She had no idea how long she had waited when suddenly she heard the waiter’s voice from outside the door, “Mr. Liang, you’ve arrived?”

The door opened, and the women let out exclamations, swarming toward the newcomer within moments, their faces beaming with joy as they approached, “Young Master Liang!”

Wu Jingyi couldn’t see the situation at the door. Just as she tiptoed to get a clear view of the visitor, all the women around her rushed to the entrance. Without their support, she lost her footing and stumbled, falling right at the feet of the man entering the door.

“Pfft—” When they saw Wu Jingyi’s disheveled state, the women couldn’t hold back their laughter.

Hearing the laughter around her, Wu Jingyi’s face flushed crimson with embarrassment, awkwardness, and mortification.

Her knees throbbed with pain, but she couldn’t be concerned with that now. Biting her lip and saying nothing, she wished she could just find a crack in the ground to crawl into.

Thinking about the humiliations she had endured since arriving in the Imperial Capital, and realizing that this fall might have cost her the chance to marry into a wealthy family, Wu Jingyi’s tears finally began to fall, and she curled up into a ball, resembling a wounded and fragile little animal.

“Miss, are you alright?”

A gentle voice came from above her.

Biting her lip, Wu Jingyi looked up and was immediately stunned.

Through her tear-soaked eyes, Wu Jingyi saw a refined man appearing before her.

The man in a black suit gazed at her with a face full of concern, like a handsome knight who had come specifically to save a princess.

In that instant, Wu Jingyi felt her heartbeat come to a halt, as if she had seen a prince from a fairy tale world riding on a white horse.

Huo Sining had no idea that although she had reborn and shattered the Liang Family’s token of recognition, resulting in Wu Jingyi’s fate in the Imperial Capital being entirely different from her previous life, her butterfly flaps hadn’t caused the storyline to collapse completely.

Just when Huo Sining thought she had entirely blocked Wu Jingyi’s chances of climbing onto the Liang Family for protection, Wu Jingyi had, unknowingly to her, made another successful connection with the Liang Family. Moreover, the plot was totally out of control with all kinds of melodramatic turns taking center stage.

Yet, without the Jade Pendant, Wu Jingyi was doomed to never become a daughter of the Liang Family. To achieve her goal of marrying into wealth by hooking up with Liang Jinhong with her own skills was a task laden with heavy burdens and a long road ahead.
