Chapter 662: Her Suspicion....
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
After Lian Mengzhu and Ye Wanwan left, only Huangfu Ruiling and Ye
Lengan remained in the hall.
“What a farce,” Ye Lengan sneered. “However, I think Ye Hongxuan is about to explode from anger. I’m afraid Ye Wanwan has to rack her brains to think of a way to explain this time.”
“What an idiot,” Huangfu Ruiling said coldly. “The reason why Ye Hongxuan brought up that matter was not to help Ye Wanwan get justice. He just wanted to minimize Ye Wanwan’s losses in this incident. Unfortunately, it was all ruined by Ye Wanwan herself.”
“That’s because Ye Wanwan has a guilty conscience!” Ye Lengan pursed her lips into a smile. “She’s afraid that if she keeps talking, I’ll tell her about the switch back then! However, I think she probably doesn’t know how much I know either. She’s just being cautious.”
“Her current situation can’t withstand any unfavorable changes.” Huangfu
Ruiling said lightly, “During this period, the things Ye Wanwan has done have already stirred dissatisfaction among the elders of the Ye family. So, even the slightest disturbance now will put her on edge!’
“She deserved it.” Ye Lengan laughed coldly and said, “She was innocent when she was switched back then. Actually, as long as she told them honestly, Ye Hongxuan and Lian Mengzhu would not give up on her. After all, she was the daughter they had raised for so many years. If I’m just an ordinary person, then even if I return to the Ye family, I won’t be able to affect her status.”
“She wouldn’t think that way.” Huangfu Ruiling continued, “She will only think that if you return to the Ye family, Ye Hongxuan and the others will definitely protect you. At that time, her position will be very awkward. Moreover, your appearance will shake her status. After all, she doesn’t have the blood of the Ye family flowing in her.”
Ye Leng’an scoffed. “Does she think that everyone is like her? Does she think that she has to rely on her family’s power to become successful? As long as you’re strong enough, you can stand firm even if you leave the family.”
It was just like her second life in the cultivation world, where she had walked step by step from a rogue cultivator to the position of an Ascension Stage mighty figure. The hardship and effort she put in were something that ordinary people could not bear.
“Those who are not strong enough like to rely on their families.” Huangfu Ruiling said lightly and then changed the topic. “It’s still early. Let’s go back to the mortal world as soon as possible!”
They had originally planned to go back. If it hadn’t been for Ye Hongxuan’s sudden visit, they would have set off long ago.
Ye Lengan nodded.
Soon, the two of them left the Huangfu family. Their departure was as discreet as their arrival, not arousing any attention. Except for a few elders in the family, hardly anyone was aware of their departure.
On the other side, after returning to the Ye family, Lian Mengzhu sent Ye Wanwan back to her room.
Ye Wanwan’s body was still very weak. If it weren’t for the fact that she had to apologize to the Huangfu family today, she wouldn’t have gotten out of bed.
Although it was just a short trip, it was already a heavy burden for Ye Wanwan’s body. Therefore, as soon as she got home, she immediately went back to bed and took a few pills to stabilize her breathing.
Looking at the weak Ye Wanwan, Lian Mengzhu’s eyes were filled with heartache. However, she couldn’t help but scold, “Wanwan, do you know what you did in the Huangfu family today? Your father did that to help you, but you made him embarrassed. What the hell are you…”
At the end of her sentence, she could not continue and could only sigh.
Hearing Lian Mengzhu’s reproach, Ye Wanwan lowered her head, her eyes moist. She sobbed and said, “Mother, I didn’t do it on purpose. Do you think Father is very angry now?”
She did not expect things to turn out like this. However, she didn’t dare to bet on how much truth Ye An t an knew. She was afraid that if she wasn’t careful, she would fall into that eternal damnation.
“Since you knew that your father would be angry, why did you say that?”
If it weren’t for the fact that Ye Wanwan was currently very weak, Lian Mengzhu really wanted to scold her daughter awake. “Your behavior today disgraced your father. How can he not be angry? Wanwan, tell me honestly, why did you say that today? Do you still have any fantasies about Huangfu Ruiling?”
Other than this reason, she could not think of any other reason. Otherwise, Wanwan would not be willing to treat her father like this and protect Huangfu Ruiling.
“No, I didn’t. He’s already treated me like that. l t d be a fool if I still had any illusions. Besides, I feel that Murong Xingrui is many times better than Huangfu Ruiling!’
However, she did not know if the Murong family would change their minds because of the incident at the Family Competition.
“Really?” Lian Mengzhu was very suspicious. “If that’s the case, then why did you protect Huangfu Ruiling like this when you were in the Huangfu family? Why didn’t you even care about that matter?”
She was skeptical about Ye Wanwan’s words. That was because Ye Wanwan’s actions were too strange.
Now that things had come to this, Ye Wanwan had no choice but to say, “Mother, actually, 1 was also at fault back then. Even if we were to bring this matter up, the Huangfu family might not back down. At that time, it will only put us in an even more embarrassing situation. So, l…”
By the time she finished speaking, she had completely lowered her head, not even daring to look at Lian Mengzhu.
Lian Mengzhu frowned and said, “Wanwan, are you hiding something about what happened back then? Tell me everything now. Otherwise, you can explain it to your father yourself. I don’t care anymore.”
After hearing Lian Mengzhu’s words, Ye Wanwan was a little anxious. After thinking for a while, she said, “Mother, actually, Huangfu Ruiling did not agree to my marriage. The person who promised me was Huangfu Ruilings mother, not him. So, when I went to find Huangfu Ruiling, he denied it directly, so I was very angry..”
