Chapter 256: Chapter 255: You Have the Nerve to Mention It?
She decisively flipped through her old phone’s photo album, finding quite a few pictures she had taken before and posted them one by one with her current phone.
“Xia Wenjin: Honestly, no one brought it up, and I never wanted to talk about it, but for the past 20 years, I’ve been kept in the dark. Not to mention my living expenses… I’m very grateful to my current parents, and as for some people in the past, I don’t want to mention them anymore. #XiaWenjinIsSoPitiful#”
The Weibo post about her immediately started circulating on various platforms.
But some eagle-eyed people immediately jumped out.
“I’m not sure about the other pictures Xia Wenjin posted, but the outfit in picture three is a unique piece from XNN; P.S.: Haute couture might have duplicates, but unique pieces definitely won’t. XNN’s unique pieces are on a totally different level from haute couture. The price is multiplied by 10.”
“I know this one! The bags in the first picture are all limited edition from HLT, plus HHG. The first row of bags starts at 300,000+, and the following limited edition ones have skyrocketed in price…”
“So the shoes in picture seven also look like they’re from XNN’s…”
It didn’t take long for the internet to do a complete 180; those who had pitied Xia Wenjin all felt like they had been slapped in the face.
Because the items Xia Wenjin showed off could all be considered top luxury, or even luxury among luxuries.
Th𝗲 most uptodate novels are published on ƒгeewёbnovel.com.
Even the cheapest item was worth tens of thousands.
These high-end brands were all understated, and only the truly wealthy treated them as everyday purchases.
They were fundamentally different from the so-called luxuries known to the general public.
Xia Wenjin had not expected public opinion to flip so quickly; she even suspected that the ones claiming the items were luxurious were hired by the Xia Family.
To refute these “paid posters,” she went out of her way to spend money on professional appraisers to authenticate the items in her photos.
But before the results could come in, the luxury brands themselves took the stage to claim their products.
“XNN: The clothes are indeed our custom orders, made for Miss Luna, and the measurements were taken personally at Miss Luna’s place for Miss Xia Wenjin. #WeAreGenuineLuxury#”
“HLT: The limited edition bags from picture one are from our releases this year, last year, and the year before. #WeAreGenuineLuxury#”
“HHG: The bags are real, and so is the person… #WeAreGenuineLuxury#”
This stirred up even more excitement among the onlookers.
“Is Xia Wenjin the legendary ignorant rich person? Everything she’s been given from her foster family is top-notch, yet she’s still playing the victim, tsk tsk…”
“The lavish financial onslaught from her foster mom is so fierce; poor her, let me bear this burden!”
“Shangjing has a new case of jealousy. This is pitiful? Who will pity me?”
“Speaking of luxury brand official Weibo accounts, isn’t HHG’s official account being a bit cheeky? One extra word, and they could easily get cyberbullied, hahaha…”
“Xia Wenjin, such an ingrate, thinking she got more from her birth parents, ahahaha… laughable, what she’s showing now isn’t even as expensive as the previous bags!”
“Some people think they can come back and be the pampered young lady, but they end up losing a watermelon for a sesame seed, hahaha…”
…
Xia Wenjin was already furious because of the previous incident, and seeing netizens mocking her made her even more enraged.
She had never imagined that the clothes, shoes, and bags she had once looked down upon were so valuable!
Had she known, she would have brought everything with her.
At the time, she felt that everything the Xia Family bought for her had depreciated in value, which is why she hadn’t brought any of it back with her.
She suddenly remembers the outfit she wore to the Lu Family’s house, which she had thrown away directly at the high-end clothing store.
Now she finally understood why the shop assistant who had picked up her clothes looked so uncontrollably delighted.
Xia Wenjin bit her lip, but then she began to feel that something wasn’t quite right.
Even though Wen Qingyu and Xia Wenmo were both famous painters, their level of spending was not something one or two famous artists could afford.
Her eyes suddenly narrowed – could it be that the Xia Family had some secret she was unaware of?
Xia Wenjin’s brows furrowed; she could never figure out why the Xia Family kept her in the dark.
Was it because they knew from the start that she wasn’t the Xia Family’s daughter, so they treated her this way?
The more Xia Wenjin thought about it, the more aggrieved she felt, and after much deliberation decided to call Xia Wenmo.
“Dudu dudu…”
After a few rings, someone picked up the phone.
Xia Wenjin secretly breathed a sigh of relief; she had thought Xia Wenmo would just hang up on her.
Back when she was with the Xia Family, their relationship was the worst, and she rarely called him. Even if she did call, they would talk for at most a few sentences.
Xia Wenjin looked at the connected call screen and gently pressed the record button.
“Hello? Xia Wenjin? What kind of mischief are you up to this time?” The voice of Xia Wenmo on the other end was cold, his words laced with distinct impatience.
Xia Wenjin’s lips curled slightly as she asked as calmly as possible, “I just want to know if you’ve been intentionally hiding the real situation of the Xia Family from me for these past 20 years?”
Xia Wenmo scoffed lightly, “Intentionally hiding? Xia Wenjin, don’t you have any idea what kind of person you are?”
She was arrogant and unreasonable as a child; if she knew her family was powerful and influential, would anyone else still be able to live?
Of course, the main concern was that her parents were worried about Xia Wenjin being a girl. Once her identity as the young lady of the Xia Family became known, she could be approached with ill intentions by some despicable people.
Thinking of how painstakingly his parents protected Xia Wenjin only for her to cast it aside as if it was nothing, made Xia Wenmo feel bitter.
Xia Wenjin clenched her fists, “I don’t understand why you had to hide it from me, given that our family was well-off…”
“Even if we had told you, what could you have done? Aren’t you the type who, upon seeing a family wealthier than your own parents, would turn her back on her kin without a second thought?” Although Xia Wenmo was too lazy to continue arguing with her, he was compelled by curiosity about Xia Wenjin’s real purpose.
If it was just to inquire about the Xia Family’s affairs, it was too out of character for Xia Wenjin.
Xia Wenmo leaned back, glancing at Xia Wenqing who was sitting beside him processing documents, and took a silent look at the recording pen that was open beside him; his irritation seemed to ease considerably.
With his elder brother there to deal with the troublemaker Xia Wenjin, all he needed to do was to play the part of a tool.
He might as well get the chance to give Xia Wenjin a good tongue-lashing and not be at a loss.
Suddenly, the sound of sobbing came through the phone, “Big brother, do you really hate me so much? Is it just because I won a painting competition over you when we were kids?”
“Have the nerve to bring that up? If it wasn’t for you sabotaging my hand, you think you could have won with your level of painting? You wouldn’t stand a ghost of a chance!” Xia Wenmo became infuriated the moment he remembered the events of their childhood.
How shameless could this woman get?
On the other end of the phone, Xia Wenjin seemed to be affected by his words, her crying grew louder, “I’m sorry, I’m sorry, it’s all my fault, I know I was wrong, can you just let me go… *sobs*…”
