Finally, after spending an entire day shopping, they got what they needed.

They had bought over 20 sets of outfits from several different shops, together with matching jewelry accessories, shoes, cosmetics, bathroom accessories and more. Ning Shuqian had spent a lot of money on that day.

They returned to the Wen Family at about 8 p.m. and found Old Mr. Wen sitting in the living room waiting for them.

Wen Xinya was wearing her new yellow dress, looking young, neat and elegant. Old Mr. Wen nodded slightly in approval. Indeed, clothes make the man. He asked, "You are back. Have you had dinner?"

Ning Shuqian felt flattered. She answered, "Yes, we had homemade cooking for dinner. It was good."

The more Old Mr. Wen looked at Wen Xinya, the more he was satisfied. "After an entire day of shopping, you must be tired. Go back to your rooms to rest! Xinya, stay behind."
Ning Shuqian smiled reluctantly and agreed. "Yes, Father. You have an early rest too."

Wen Yuya clenched her teeth tightly. She wondered if she received different treatment because she was an adopted daughter.

"Aunt Ning, sorry to trouble you for the whole day. Goodnight and sweet dreams!" said Wen Xinya smilingly.
Ning Shuqian dragged the angry Wen Yuya as they left the living room together.

Only Old Mr. Wen and Wen Xinya remained in the living room. He said,

"The things you purchased have been delivered. I asked Mother Wang to pack them on your behalf."

"Thank you, Grandpa!" Wen Xinya thanked him with appreciation.

"I've done some serious thinking when you were out. I plan to organize an evening banquet three months later to make the official announcement about you returning to the Wen Family. I'll get Secretary Cao to arrange some etiquette-related classes for you. You have to prove your worthiness as the eldest daughter from an affluent family in three months time. Can you do that?" old Mr. Wen informed her with a stern look in his eyes.

To prove her worthiness as the eldest daughter from an affluent family within three months would be a daunting task for her previous life Wen Xinya. But for the new reborn Wen Xinya, it would be a piece of cake.

"Grandpa, please believe me. I will prove my worthiness as the eldest daughter of the Wen Family and make you proud," she promised.
The smile on Wen Xinya's face was as beautiful as the blooming flowers on the cliff-wall. It made Old Mr. Wen thought he had made the right choice.
Old Mr. Wen turned around and returned to his room.

At this moment, Mother Wang brought a man who was wearing a blue uniform to the living room. "Miss Wen, this is the delivery from the shop you visited earlier today, Jo-ramst. I have asked someone to send them to your room for packing. But the delivery man said he needed you to sign-off and receive a few items personally," she informed.

Wen Xinya nodded and walked over to them. The man in the blue uniform handed her the receipt respectfully.
Wen Xinya just took a quick glance at it. She knew what were the items she had purchased earlier. Therefore, she quickly signed and took over the big rectangle box from Mother Wang's hands.

Wen Xinya returned to her room and opened the big box mindlessly. There were five smaller boxes of premium packaging inside. From the premium packaging, she could tell these boxes contained expensive items. As she doubtfully opened the five boxes one by one, she found the boxes contained the five pieces of expensive jewelry accessories she saw earlier. She was shocked.

She then immediately dialed to the main number of Jo-ramst. Within a short while, someone picked up the line. "I'm Wen Xinya. Can I speak to Manager Ye, Ye Mengjie?" she requested.
