Reborn As Super Heiress

Chapter 188: Chapter 185: Wu Jingyi’s Astonishing Discovery Chapter 188: Chapter 185: Wu Jingyi’s Astonishing Discovery Strict checks ensured that guests of various ranks were received on different floors: the first, second, and third floor, each designated for a specific tier.

Although Wu Jingyi had not been at the club for long, she had heard Sister Chen mention it before.

The members of the club were all ranked, with ordinary wealthy individuals only allowed to engage in eating, drinking, and entertainment on the first floor.

Those who could go up to the second floor either had a powerful family background or an exceptional ability.

As for the third floor, it was completely beyond the reach of commoners like them.

The fact that the man could exit from the elevator signaled he was someone of no ordinary status, whether he came from the second or third floor.

Wu Jingyi’s mind worked quickly, and she immediately came up with an idea.

She wanted to catch that man’s attention!

Wu Jingyi deliberately bumped into the man, aiming for a seemingly coincidental encounter.

Yet, to her surprise, just as she was about to crash into his embrace, the man stepped back mercilessly. Consequently, she lost her balance and fell forward to the ground.

What infuriated Wu Jingyi even more was that the man did not even glance at her and simply left without any intention of helping her up.

The man’s face was clearly imprinted in Wu Jingyi’s memory, unmistakably the same man from the video.

“This person, you’re saying he’s the young owner of Shengtang Group? What does Shengtang Group do?”

Wu Jingyi asked anxiously with a tightened heart.

As soon as Tang Yinuo heard the question, she knew Wu Jingyi had found the wrong person. Indeed, Wu Jingyi was a country bumpkin without a clue about the famous Shengtang Group.

A hint of disdain appeared in her eyes:

“Shengtang Group is a renowned corporation in the Imperial Capital, also one of the top 500 listed companies in the world, focusing mainly on commercial real estate, luxury hotels, cultural tourism, and chain department stores, as well as managing a few other business projects.”

“But even if I tell you this, you won’t understand. In short, the group is very powerful and prosperous. And as the young owner of Shengtang Group, my male god has more money than he can spend.”

Upon hearing this, Wu Jingyi’s face turned pale and her hand clenched into a fist, her downturned eyelids revealing intense frustration and unwillingness.

She had never imagined that the man held such a high status. If only she had known, she would not have acted so recklessly and would have chosen a softer approach to catch his attention.

The more Wu Jingyi thought about it, the more she regretted, feeling she had missed a golden opportunity.

“Wu Jingyi, don’t you also think this rumor is unbelievable? Hmph, my male god is so handsome and has never had any scandals over the years. How could he possibly fall for such an ugly woman? She is nowhere near worthy of my male god!”

Tang Yinuo couldn’t help asking again when Wu Jingyi remained silent.

Regaining her composure, Wu Jingyi’s gaze fell on the woman in the video who was arguing with Gu Xu.

The more she looked at her, the more she felt she had seen this woman somewhere before, but after rummaging through her memories, she couldn’t find any useful information.

“What’s that woman’s name?” Wu Jingyi couldn’t remember, so she simply asked Tang Yinuo.

Tang Yinuo curled her lip in displeasure, “Who knows what her name is? If only we knew her name, even if I didn’t take action, our fan club would definitely have many people rush over and give that woman a beating! There were people who wanted to dox that woman’s information before, but somehow, it all just disappeared later on, and even the news that was causing such a stir got suppressed.”

“It must have been your male idol who took action to suppress it. He is a well-known figure in the business community, why would he let those gossip magazines exploit his reputation? He just caught a criminal at Guangcheng Airport, and you all are this excited. If it really came out that the woman was his wife, wouldn’t you all go crazy?”

The girl beside Tang Yinuo who disagreed with her opinion couldn’t help but let out a sneer of dissent.

Guangcheng?

Unintentional listeners may hear with intent. Although Wu Jingyi hadn’t thought much before, the mention of that word shocked her.

A face suddenly surfaced in her mind, and she was filled with doubt yet disbelief; she subconsciously reached out to grab Tang Yinuo’s computer mouse, and clicked to replay the video that had finished playing.

Seeing Wu Jingyi touch her computer without permission, Tang Yinuo was immediately displeased, her face darkening as she glared at Wu Jingyi.

However, Wu Jingyi was in no mood to care about that; her whole attention was absorbed by the video, and she didn’t notice Tang Yinuo’s sullen face beside her.

As the video played again, when the camera focused on the woman in the video and gave a close-up shot, Wu Jingyi trembled, finally confirming her suspicion.

The woman in the video was indeed that idiot Huo Sining!

Even though her facial features had become much more refined, Wu Jingyi was absolutely certain, the woman in the video was undoubtedly Huo Sining.

Ever since she had a minor dispute with Huo Sining on the bus to the county town, she had not contacted Huo Sining again.

It might have been because she was about to come to the Imperial Capital for school, while Huo Sining didn’t even fill out her college entrance examination choices, so Wu Jingyi was filled with a sense of superiority.

Even though she had lost contact with Huo Sining, Wu Jingyi didn’t feel any loss; on the contrary, she felt pure relief.

Being an orphan who had always lived in the orphanage in Baiyun Town, she had met Huo Sining who had always claimed to be her friend, little did she know that she never considered that stupid woman a friend.

Huo Sining often brought her nice food or useful things from the Huo family, and Wu Jingyi would feel disgust and humiliation from the bottom of her heart.

She didn’t want to be pitied by anyone, yet every time Huo Sining looked at her, her eyes were full of sympathy, which made Wu Jingyi resent her deeply.

She wanted to take revenge on Huo Sining, that presumptuous woman. She had already planned that after the college entrance examination results were out, she would find a way to steal Huo Sining’s admission letter.

She wanted to ruin Huo Sining and see what the woman would have left to pity her.

However, she had planned for so long, but still missed a trick; she didn’t expect that the woman would not plan to go to university but had followed her cousin to Guangcheng instead.

Wu Jingyi was filled with unwillingness but was helpless. She thought that after arriving in the Imperial Capital, she would live a better life than Huo Sining, but it turned out to be disappointing.

Although they had only been apart for a few months, she could tell from the video that Huo Sining had changed a lot.

Her facial features and skin had become much more delicate, and just from her clothes, Wu Jingyi knew that Huo Sining was living quite well.
