Reborn Aristocrat: Return of the Vicious Heiress Chapter 1804 - Gu Yihan Is Out

Chapter 1804: Gu Yihan Is Out

The second day, Wen Xinya and Bai Ling went to the police station together to fetch Gu Yihan.
Gu Yihan had been detained for more than a month and looked rather haggard. She had lost quite a bit of weight and her face was darkened—obviously, she had had a hard time.
Wen Xinya couldn’t help but feel upset as she hurried over, grabbed her hand, and said, “Teacher Gu, Bai Ling and I are here to fetch you. It’s been tough on you.”
Gu Yihan’s well-kept and brilliant hands were skinny and worn. Holding her hands made Wen Xinya feel sad for some reason.
Such a peerlessly talented woman who was less than forty-years-old with a long and bright future had her life ruined just like this. Her talents had been twisted and tainted, left only with ashen eyes filled with fragility and depression. It was a sad sight.
Bai Ling was the happiest since the only thought on her mind recently was for Gu Yihan to get out as soon as possible. “Teacher Gu, it’s great that you’re okay. Come, let’s go back. We’ve gotta celebrate today.”
Bai Ling had an innocent mind and her unchanged admiration and pure liking towards Gu Yihan made Gu Yihan feel uncontrollably touched and dispersed some of the haziness on her face.
She sort of understood Wen Xinya’s efforts and couldn’t help but be filled with gratitude. “Xinya, thank you… and thank Old Mr. Wen too. He trusted and thought highly of me, but I’ve let him down and caused the Wen Corporation to suffer such losses. I’ve failed him for grooming and being so kind to me…”
Saying this, she couldn’t help but sob and cry.
During the time when she was detained in the police station, due to the Wen Family drawing some connections, she didn’t have a hard time. She was also kept updated about the Wen Family’s circumstances by watching the news on television.
She was filled with self-reproach and torment. Thinking about how the grandfather and granddaughter of the Wen Family were trying all means and ways to get her out, she almost felt embarrassed and too ashamed to face them.
Seeing that she was so upset, tears also welled up in Wen Xinya’s eyes uncontrollably. “Grandpa doesn’t blame you. He wants you to be well. Nothing in this world is unconquerable—please, don’t be too hard on yourself.”
Before she left to fetch Gu Yihan, Grandpa’s words were only: “Want her to be well!”
This showed Grandpa’s practical and sincere hopes for Gu Yihan.
Gu Yihan instantly bawled.
Wen Xinya hugged her and gently rubbed her back in consolation.
Bai Ling also couldn’t help but wipe her tears aside. Chairman and Sister Xinya didn’t give up on Teacher Gu at her lowest point and still treated her with sincerity. She was greatly touched.
Although Teacher Gu was caught for taking drugs, this couldn’t deny her talents, and her admiration for Teacher Gu wouldn’t change because of this as well. People would inevitably make some mistakes in their lives, and Teacher Gu had never harmed anyone—why shouldn’t she just be forgiven?
Wen Xinya finally managed to console Gu Yihan when she said, “Let’s save the talk for later when we get back. Otherwise, if the reporters get wind of this, it’ll be hard for us to get out of trouble.”
Although Gu Yihan’s drug-taking incident had already passed.
However, from the time when Gu Yihan was exposed for taking drugs, the reporters had yet to manage to interview her and were unlikely to give up just like this. Reporters were always camping around the police station.
Gu Yihan nodded before the group left the police station.
Indeed, there were already reporters camping outside. Thankfully, Wen Xinya had already made some prior arrangements which enabled them to shake the reporters off unscathed and smoothly got back to a rather secretive apartment of Xinya’s in the capital city.
“Welcome Home, Teacher Gu—”
The door swung open to cheering voices in the house, followed by colorful confetti that covered Gu Yihan in entirety.
Stepping into the apartment, Gu Yihan realized that they were the two new designers in the fashion design department previously. As they were extraordinarily talented, she had given them more guidance and was quite close to them.
Seeing the looks of joy on their faces now made her feel uncontrollably emotional.
Just then, the short-haired young lady, Jingjing, fetched a basin of charcoal, placed it at the doorstep, and said, “You’ve gotta step across the basin of charcoal to burn all the inauspicious energies away for good luck.”
The other young lady with curly hair, Nannan, took a spray can, aimed, and sprayed at her. “This is pomelo water—Jingjing said that it can wash away one’s foul gas.”
After the rituals, Gu Yihan’s sorrows were completely dispersed. She was deeply moved.
One would lose some important things in life, but would also receive some invaluable things.
A friend in need was a friend indeed—she had the first-hand experience of this.
The few of them were eating, drinking, and chatting away merrily. The atmosphere was rather pleasant.
Just then, Wen Xinya retrieved a set of documents and said, “These are Wen Corporation’s new design drafts—do help me take a look!”
Gu Yihan looked at the documents before her and wanted to receive them, but hesitated slightly before she finally shook her head and said, “Forget it. You’re quite experienced in fashion design and have a keen eye. Since you’ve already looked at them, they should be good.”
Saying that she grabbed the red wine before her and took a sip.
Wen Xinya didn’t give up. “After all, I’m not as professional as you. Why don’t you take it as doing me a favor?”
At this point, Gu Yihan was in a difficult position.
Bai Ling said, “Teacher Gu, just take a look and give us some inputs! Put our minds at ease.”
Jingjing said coquettishly, “We’ve all been guided by you—you can’t ignore us.”
Nannan also joined in and said, “We still hope that you can continue to guide us—when it comes to talent in fashion design, not many people can hold a candle to you.”
Gu Yihan was finally convinced. She took the designs over and was instantly surprised. “Your designs have improved drastically—guess Xinya has given you guys lots of tutoring in this period of time!”
Then, she pointed out some flaws and provided some technical opinions, making the few young ladies’ admiration for her go through the roof.
After everything, Wen Xinya said, “Although Bai Ling and the rest are astonishingly talented in fashion design, their products still need to be drilled and guided. Recently, I’ve been busy with the matters of the corporation, why don’t you guide them—anyway, they’d previously received lots of guidance from you.”
Although Gu Yihan’s life was completely ruined, her talent remained and shouldn’t be buried just like this.
What she meant was for Gu Yihan to pull herself together and lay low for a while before making further plans.
What else could get her back on her feet faster than her beloved fashion design?
Gu Yihan hesitated before saying, “I… can I do it?”
Wen Corporation had been implicated by her and suffered great losses. Indeed, she wanted to make up to them, and grooming new designers for the corporation was the best choice for her. She was slightly moved.
However, thinking of her reputation, she hesitated slightly.
Wen Xinya smiled. “I can’t wish for more. No matter what happens, your talent in fashion design is undeniable.”
