Chapter 635: Expelled by the Zhishan Club

After being chased out of the Xia Family home by Chen Linfang, Xia Ruya was instantly surrounded by reporters who incessantly took photos of her looking incredibly disheveled and pathetic while bombarding her with questions.

She had a hard time shirking them off. She then received a call from the Zhishan Club.

Her heart sunk to rock bottom and she felt nothing except hopelessness and despair.

Xia Ruya entered Zhishan Club’s clubhouse slowly and knocked on the door of Tang Xiaowei’s office. After hearing Tang Xiaowei’s assent, Xia Ruya opened the door with trembling hands and entered.

Tang Xiaowei and Zhou Huiyan were the only people in the office.

Appearing as pale as a sheet, Xia Ruya asked, “Teacher Tang, Teacher Zhou, are you guys looking for me?”

Ever since she received the call from Zhishan Club, she was sent into a state of panic and felt like she was being strangled. She was filled with fear, panic, anxiety, and hopelessness… Even if she was a fool, she would know Tang Xiaowei’s purpose of seeing her.

Tang Xiaowei said calmly, “Inform the human resources department of the details of the projects that you’re working on now and hand them over to them.”

Xia Ruya stared at Tang Xiaowei in astonishment and asked, “Teacher Tang, are… are you going to expel me?”

Although she had already guessed it long ago, she still found it hard to accept the truth after hearing it from Tang Xiaowei. She had already fallen out with the Wen Family and her last hope, the Xia Family. Now, she was also going to lose her status as a member of the Zhishan Club. Once she got expelled, she’d be boycotted by everyone.

Tang Xiaowei said, “I did give you a chance before.”

Xia Ruya was no longer eligible for Zhishan Club ever since her scandal was exposed. Tang Xiaowei had made Xia Ruya give up her projects and hand them over to someone else, simply because she wanted to give her a chance and observe her for a while longer. However, Xia Ruya did not treasure the chance and even colluded with Ning Shuqian to deal with Wen Xinya and plot against the Wen Family.

Xia Ruya turned pale and her lips began to tremble. Appearing vulnerable and pitiful, Xia Ruya asked, “Why? Is it because of the news reports in the newspapers and magazines?”

She pressed her lips together tightly, looking extremely indignant.

Everyone kicks a man who is down. Zhishan Club is not that high, anyway.

Having noticed all of her expressions, Zhou Huiyan gently caressed the floral print on her cup and asked, “Isn’t that a sufficient reason? Zhishan Club is a philanthropic and charitable association. Filial piety is the core of charity. Your reputation is now tarnished and you’re known as an ingrate who has plotted against the Wen Family. It was again exposed that the Xia Family has severed all ties with you. Your unfilial piety has caused an adverse impact on Zhishan Club.”

She had always found Xia Ruya to be an intelligent girl. However, she did not admire her for it because Xia Ruya was just too mercenary and scheming for her liking. Most importantly, she felt that Xia Ruya was not sincere or genuine enough.

Zhou Huiyan’s words had hit the nail on the head and caused Xia Ruya to be at a loss for words for a rebuttal. Dejection was written all over Xia Ruya’s face and she exclaimed, “The reports on the newspapers are just rumors, they’re not true at all!”

Tang Xiaowei glared at her coldly and gibed. “Miss Xia, don’t keep making excuses for yourself and claiming that the news reports are just rumors whenever there’s a report of your scandals. You’ve always been a smart girl, and I only agreed to let you join Zhishan Club because I admired you. However, don’t take everyone to be a fool and don’t make me despise you.”

Tang Xiaowei’s words were even more shrewd and austere. Xia Ruya could no longer say anything to defend herself. She suddenly felt incredibly ashamed and embarrassed.

“I don’t find it fair at all. Wen Xinya was also embroiled in a scandal previously. Why can the Zhishan Club tolerate her and not me?” Xia Ruya questioned, the tears in her eyes gradually drying up. They had become bloodshot, making her look extremely menacing.

Wen Xinya and Zhou Huiyan had always been close, and Tang Xiaowei was good friends with Old Mr. Mo too. Hence, she was certain that Wen Xinya was the one who caused her to be expelled.

Tang Xiaowei stared at her coldly. She knew that Xia Ruya could stay calm and rational regardless of the situation. Although that was something she admired, Xia Ruya had begun to let her anger and jealousy show.

Zhou Huiyan stared at her in shock and said, “You’re different from Xinya. Xinya can take control of her own life, so she’d be able to take charge of everything regardless of what happens. However, it’s different for you… you tried to covet something that doesn’t belong to you. You’re different from Xinya right from the start.”

Zhou Huiyan had already made herself clear. She was indirectly trying to say that Xia Ruya was coveting something that didn’t belong to her. Xia Ruya could no longer keep up with the pretense, and it seemed as if her mask was about to crack, revealing her innermost emotions. “You people make yourselves out to be so high sounding, but you’re just hitting me now that I’m done.”

Tang Xiaowei frowned at her and said, “Xia Ruya, you’re scheming, but Wen Xinya is ambitious. Both of you have great goals to achieve, and that’s why I admire you two. However… the difference between you and Wen Xinya is that Wen Xinya knew her place ever since she returned to the Wen Family. She worked hard and strove for excellence. But you… you failed to see the reality and were blinded by vanity and materialism. You used your intelligence for unscrupulous means.”

She had trusted the wrong person at the start. She found Xia Ruya to be a smart girl but failed to realize how truly scheming she was.

Xia Ruya glowered at Tang Xiaowei and said, “Nothing in this world can change the fact that winners take all. You people are just taking the chance to rub salt into my wound. What’s the point of insulting me like that…”

Tang Xiaowei and Zhou Huiyan looked at each other with frowns on their faces.

Xia Ruya said, “It’s just because Wen Xinya is the heiress of the Wen Family and I’m not! It’s just because she has an esteemed grandfather and I don’t!”

Wen Xinya, Wen Xinya…

That name was like a cursed spell that rang in her ears and shook her soul.

How very vicious of her.

Why does everyone compare me to Wen Xinya? How am I in any way inferior to Wen Xinya?

I’m the one who has a refined background. Wen Xinya is just a gangster who had led a wandering life for fifteen years.

I was clearly the princess whom the Wen Family doted on, unlike Wen Xinya, the boorish and cheap piece of trash.

Why does everyone have to put Wen Xinya on a pedestal? Why do they have to castigate and insult me?

Why?

Why?
