“Are you here just to taunt me?” Pang Tingting put down her hand and tried hard to suppress the hatred in her heart. “Say it! What is your motive?
“I just have something to ask you.” Ye Leng’an said with a smile, “It’s very simple. I just want to know why you chose me back then. I found out that there were other baby girls in the same room, but you chose to swap me with Ye Xiyuan. Was this a random choice? Or…”
“Do you want to know?” Pang Tingting smiled smugly. “But I just don’t want to tell you. What should you do? Aren’t you very powerful? Then investigate it yourself!”
Ye Leng’an got her into such a situation, and now she still wanted to trick her into telling the truth. Ye Lengan must be dreaming! Of course, if Ye Lengan was willing to give her some benefits, she could say it with reluctance. Otherwise, Ye Leng’an would never get a single word out of her.
“Oh, really?” Ye Lengan nodded and said indifferently, “Since you don’t want to talk about it, then forget it. Bye.”
After that, she turned around and was about to leave.
Seeing Ye Leng’an’s no-nonsense attitude, Pang Tingting was dumbfounded. She quickly called out to Ye Leng’an, “Aren’t you curious about it at all?”
“Yes, I am!” Ye Leng’an nodded. “But, weren’t you unwilling to tell me? Since that was the case, then we should not waste each other’s time. You’re not tired, but I’m tired! I still want to go back and rest early!’
Pang Tingting said in a furious tone. “Don’t regret it.”
“I definitely won’t.” Ye Leng’an continued, “But if you regret it, you are welcome to come to me at any time.”
With that, Ye Leng’an took out a note from her bag. There was a phone number on it. “You’ll need it.”
“Hmph, Ye Leng’an, since you don’t want to know, then forget it.” Pang Tingting didn’t even look at it. She crumpled the note into a ball and threw it on the ground. “I didn’t say it today, and I won’t say it again in the future.” After that, she turned around and left.
Ye Leng’an shrugged her shoulders, not caring at all. Then, she turned around and walked to Huangfu Ruiling’s side. The two of them got in the car and left.
Not long after that car left, Pang Tingting walked back to pick up the note she had thrown on the ground and put it in her bag before leaving again.
She didn’t know why she came back, but there was a voice in her heart that kept telling her to pick up the note, or she would regret it. So, in the end, she still walked back.
After so many things happened in one night, the Ye family had long lost the mood to continue the banquet. After Ye Li said a few words on the stage, he directly asked all guests to leave.
The guests had already expected this, so they didn’t say anything or feel dissatisfied. They quickly took their leave.
Even Nangong Xuyao left after comforting Ye Xiyuan. After so many things happened, he naturally wanted to stay. However, he knew very well that he was an outsider and the Ye family did not want him to get involved. Therefore, he tactfully took his leave.
Soon, only the Ye family was left in the huge banquet hall.
Ye Xiyuan looked at the empty hall and the big cake in the middle that she hadn’t had time to cut. She felt desolate in her heart. At the same time, her hatred for Ye Leng’an deepened. If it hadn’t been for Ye Leng’an, the banquet wouldn’t have ended up like this.
The birthday banquet that she had been looking forward to turned into a farce.
The banquet had already ended in a hurry before the birthday cake was cut. She could almost imagine how those people would discuss everything that happened today after tomorrow.
“Xiyuan, don’t be sad.” Ye Anyun noticed Ye Xiyuan’s disappointment. He came to Ye Xiyuan’s side, put his arm around her shoulder, and comforted her, “Later, later, we’ll make up for your seventeenth birthday.”
This was the only thing they could do now. Of course, they would probably just have a meal together to celebrate. It would never be as grand as today.
However, no one expected that today’s banquet would end so hastily. In fact, because of this banquet, the Ye family had become a joke.
“I’m fine.” Ye Xiyuan raised her head and looked at Ye Anyun. She managed to force a smile. “I just feel a little sorry. If you hadn’t prepared this banquet for me, none of this would have happened.”
She turned to look at Ye Li and Lin Wanqin. “Dad, Mom, I’m sorry. It’s all my fault.”
“What does this have to do with you!” Lin Wanqin’s heart ached when she saw Ye Xiyuan’s aggrieved expression. She took a step forward and pulled Ye Xiyuan into her arms. She patted Ye Xiyuan’s back and said, “Who would have thought of today’s matter? Speaking of which, it was all because of Ye Leng’an. She should be blamed. No, Pang Tingting should be blamed. If it hadn’t been for her, we wouldn’t have raised Ye Leng’an for so many years.”
“Alright, stop talking.” Ye Li frowned and said, “In the future, we shouldn’t interfere with Ye Lengan’s matters anymore. It’s best if we don’t have anything to do with her. Now she has Young Master Huangfu backing her up, it is not a small matter to offend her.”
From what happened today, he could tell that it was impossible for him to be on good terms with Ye Leng’an again. However, even though he had gained some benefits from Ye Leng’an, he did not want to offend Young Master Huangfu who was behind Ye Leng’an. Therefore, it would be best if they didn’t have any contact with each other in the future.
“Hmph, who knows what tricks she’s playing!” Lin Wanqin said disdainfully, “What’s so great about Ye Leng’an? She just has a pretty face. She couldn’t be so arrogant without Young Master Nangong. No matter how beautiful a face is, there will be a day when people get tired of looking at it. When that time comes, will she still have a good life without the protection of Young Master Huangfu?”
She didn’t care about a b*tch who tried to win the heart ot a man with her pretty appearance. After all, a plaything wouldn’t be favored for too long, especially with Ye Leng’an’s arrogant personality. She would definitely fall out of favor very quickly.
“We’ll talk about the future later..” Ye Li waved his hand and said, “In any case, we can’t afford to offend Young Master Huangfu right now, so it’s better to stay away from Ye Leng’an!’
