Reborn as a Mortal Heiress Pampered by Big Shots-Chapter 424 - 281 Someone wants to challenge Sister Ye!

Xia Family.

Xia Yuzheng came out of the inner room in a crisply tailored suit, his beard neatly trimmed and hair well-groomed, clearly dressed for some formal event.

Xu He was on the sofa reading a fashion magazine. The Paris fall/winter collection for women had just been released, and the ladies of Capital City were very supportive, all bringing their daughters to buy outfits exclusively.

But Xu He knew that they did so mainly because of the Xia Family’s influence.

About the styles of the clothes, she herself wasn’t particularly satisfied.

It wasn’t that they weren’t attractive, just that they didn’t dazzle the eye.

How could such ordinary dresses be worthy of her Little Tiangao?

She should start preparing next spring’s collection. Where could she find a satisfying designer...

Xia Yuzheng, seeing his wife seriously at work, smiled knowingly, "Yeye is going to the Academy of Sciences today, isn’t she?"

Speaking of their daughter, a smile finally appeared on Xu He’s elegant face, "Yes, I just called her. She’s almost there."

Xia Yuzheng was extremely relieved, but also worried, "The school curriculum is already intense and now she also has to handle training at the Academy of Sciences, I wonder if she can manage it... Xiaohe, let her come home on weekends recently, so we can make her some delicious food to replenish her strength."

Xu He thought the same, "Don’t worry, I just told her that over the phone."

Xia Yuzheng nodded, his gaze falling on a large plaque hanging in the living room.

That plaque had been delivered to their home a week ago, but the words "Miraculous Recovery" on it still overwhelmed Xia Yuzheng every time he saw them.

Not to mention the expressions he and Xu He had when they received the plaque.

Indeed, the plaque was a gift from Jiang He’s wife, Liu Manyi, who had a significant joyful event recently—Liu Manyi had become pregnant.

Jiang He, having a child later in life, had reportedly been spending less time at the company.

The Xia and Jiang families were on good terms. Originally, Xia Yuzheng and Xu He were worried about what suitable gift to give for Liu Manyi’s pregnancy. However, before they could visit, Liu Manyi came to them herself.

And she came with much fanfare.

That day, through the window, they saw two men get out of a car, carrying a heavy plaque.

Upon seeing them, Liu Manyi was so excited she became incoherent, and it took a while for them to understand that it was thanks to their beloved daughter that Liu Manyi could conceive!

Xia Yuzheng remembered the gratitude on Liu Manyi’s face when she thanked him and his wife profusely and couldn’t help feeling moved.

His wife was right—Yeye was truly a gift sent to them by Heaven.

Ever since Yeye came back home, his wife’s complexion had markedly improved, as if she was rejuvenated like a frail willow.

The Jiang Family also became closer to the Xia Family thanks to their daughter’s bridge.

And their daughter herself was so outstanding that even he, who always had high standards and demands for children, felt inadequate by comparison.

Everything was perfect beyond reproach, yet Xia Yuzheng still felt there was something unresolved in his heart.

It was the criminal who had kidnapped his daughter years ago, who had still not been caught.

Although the daughter was still as sharp and intelligent as anyone, the years of captivity and torture she endured were indelibly etched in her memory.

Had it not been for an unbearable burden on her heart, how could she fail to remember what exactly had happened during the years she was kidnapped?

Thinking about this, Xia Yuzheng’s heart ached dully, and his expression turned cold.

"Husband, isn’t it about time? Today is the first day Mr. Shen’s private hospital is open. He sent the invitation half a month ago, and it would be bad to be late..."

Xu He’s gentle reminder brought Xia Yuzheng back from his myriad thoughts.

"Ah, thanks for reminding me," he squeezed out a smile, "Mr. Shen’s first venture in Capital City is this private hospital, and I hear the pricing is very reasonable, aimed entirely at benefiting the public. No wonder people in Hai City say Mr. Shen is a great benefactor..."

Today was not only the first day for Prospective Students at the Academy of Sciences but also the grand opening of the Shen Family’s private hospital.

Capital City’s tycoons are mostly investing in new media, new energy, and other industries with high profit potential and promising prospects.

But amidst such intense competition, the Shen Family chose to open a high-investment, slow-return private hospital as their first venture in settling down in Capital City.

They’ve reportedly hired many renowned international experts and professors, and there are special benefits for disabled patients.

This move was widely reported by mainstream media, with the public admiration and praise boosting Shen Zhixi’s popularity significantly.
