Si Yiyan asked composedly, “Xinya, what do you think is the most important thing to a woman?”
After much thought, Wen Xinya still could not think of an answer that she was satisfied with.
Si Yiyan looked at her and said slowly, “Xinya, you must remember that a woman’s innocence is the most important.”
Wen Xinya quivered and sobered up instantly. She thought to herself, Yeah… it’s most important for a woman to have a clear name and conscience. In my previous lifetime… I became a drug addict, got into fights and lots of trouble. What ruined me was my reputation, which led to my downfall and a tragic outcome.
Si Yiyan continued, “It’s the same case with ancient women shaving their heads and becoming nuns or killing themselves in order to prove their innocence. People like them would often be forgiven and complimented. Lu Zhu, the beloved concubine of the emperor of the Western Jin Dynasty, is the cla.s.sic example. She was just a lowly songstress who jumped to her death in order to prove her innocence. That’s how the Tang poem came about. Clearly… songstresses and women from brothels were frowned upon and discriminated against in the past, even if they still had their virginity.”
Wen Xinya finally understood what he meant. “Chast.i.ty matters the most to the people of Z Nation. Although Xia Ruya is baring her intimacy to the public, doing so would prove her chast.i.ty. Lots of people will forgive and be magnanimous towards her.”
Si Yiyan nodded and said, “That’s why Xia Ruya will definitely earn the forgiveness of many, although she’d ruin her reputation further. It’d be her trump card for clearing her name.”
Wen Xinya said, “Xia Ruya may be embroiled in a scandal, but she’s innocent, to begin with. By ruining her reputation to prove her innocence, everyone is going to think that she’s just a victim and thus show her some sympathy. If I’m not wrong, Xia Ruya is going to enjoy a better reputation after everything blows over, so long as nothing goes wrong.”
“Exactly.”
Wen Xinya rubbed her throbbing forehead and said, “I really wonder how Xia Ruya’s brain works. She’s so scheming and sharp that it’s almost impossible to guard against her.”
Si Yiyan let out a sigh and said, “I actually couldn’t tell how interesting this Xia Ruya is. She never fails to see through everything and comes up with a solution resolutely. Not everyone can be this scheming and relentless.”
Wen Xinya was actually much more scheming than Xia Ruya. However, Xia Ruya was way more shrewd than her.
Wen Xinya pouted, feeling rather disgruntled, although she had no choice but to admit it. After all… women hated hearing their men compliment other women. Not to mention, Xia Ruya was the woman whom she hated the most. Not only was Xia Ruya detestable and pretentious, she even s.n.a.t.c.hed Wen Xinya’s boyfriend in the previous lifetime.
Si Yiyan kissed her on the lips and said, “She’s evil and devious. She can’t hold a candle to you at all.”
A look of satisfaction formed on Wen Xinya’s face and she said, “That’s more like it. Also… you’re not allowed to compliment other women in front of me again. You’re not allowed to do so… behind my back either. You can’t keep talking bad about others either. Otherwise… hmph!”
She intentionally put on a menacing look.
However, she seemed just like an infuriated kitten, which was extremely adorable to Si Yiyan. “What a jealous little one!”
Wen Xinya answered self-righteously, “So what if I’m jealous? I’m just a green-eyed monster!”
Si Yiyan burst into laughter and then explained, “I just wanted to tell you that Xia Ruya is probably much more complicated than we think. I wanted to warn you not to belittle her.”
Wen Xinya understood Xia Ruya very well. Having realized that the situation seemed a little tricky, Si Yiyan decided to a.n.a.lyze the situation with her in a bid to get her to keep her guard up.
Wen Xinya took a deep breath and said, “I’ve truly belittled Xia Ruya. However, she truly fits the impression that I have of her.”
This incident had given her an eyeopener, and she began viewing Xia Ruya in a different light.
Si Yiyan nodded and said with a frown, “Xinya, you need to broaden your knowledge and find out more about Xia Ruya. Women like her are the most terrifying. She perpetually knows what she wants. She hides her greed and resorts to every possible means to achieve her goals. She plans each and every move meticulously and sneaks up on you to attack you when you’re not noticing. She’s much harder to deal with than we had imagined. You must be very careful and be very wary of an enemy like her.”
“You’re right! She is such a person,” said Wen Xinya, who could not help but be reminded of the previous lifetime where Xia Ruya attacked her when she was not noticing. At last, she drove Wen Xinya to her grave.
Si Yiyan looked at her to see that there was still fear and panic in her eyes. Clearly, she felt threatened by how driven and unbeatable Xia Ruya was. However… he could not understand why she was so fl.u.s.tered.
Having sensed that Si Yiyan was worried, she smiled and said, “Don’t worry! I won’t let my guard down around her.”
She had never let her guard down around Xia Ruya, and never would in the future. Knowing more about Xia Ruya simply made her more cautious.
Si Yiyan kissed her cold lips. “No matter what Xia Ruya is like, she’ll definitely focus on clearing her name before dealing with you.”
Wen Xinya nodded and said, “I know. Xia Ruya is very concerned about her reputation; her once-perfect reputation had brought her lots of benefits. She never fails to plot against me nor stay out of trouble. Now that her reputation has been ruined, she’d definitely spend all her time on clearing her name.”
Si Yiyan gazed at her affectionately. “Will you attend Xia Ruya’s press conference?”
Wen Xinya sneered. “Of course, why not? I’m waiting to see how pathetic Xia Ruya is now. Besides, it’s best to harm her and add fuel to the fire at this juncture, don’t you think so?”
Xia Ruya’s maniacal actions compelled Wen Xinya to seize every opportunity to defeat her.
Si Yiyan chuckled and said, “I’ll send you there later.”
