“Yumeng, you really have a big heart!” Xiao Xueqing said with a half-smile. ” Even though Ye Leng’an embarrassed you like that, you’re not even a bit angry.”
Although her words were complimentary, her ambiguous expression made people wonder.
“Yumeng has always had a good nature.” Zi Zhijie stepped forward, his gaze towards Murong Yumeng filled with admiration. It was as if he didn’t catch the hidden meaning in Xiao Xueqing’s words at all. He smiled and said, “She’s always been like this since childhood.”
Among those present today were all children from prominent families in the capital. Zi Zhijie’s family had a long history of political involvement, and many members of the Zi family held high positions in the government. Zi Zhijie’s future also lay in this direction. He had harbored feelings for Murong Yumeng since childhood, and both families had already agreed that there was a high chance of them marrying in the future.
Hearing Zi Zhijie’s words, Xiao Xueqing’s expression visibly darkened. However, she wouldn’t blame Zi Zhijie, she just shot Murong Yumeng a fierce glare.
“Alright.” Cong Haodong stepped forward, laughing. ” We’ve been here for quite some time. Let’s quickly book rooms and freshen up before heading out to play! Didn’t we hear that there’s a large gathering tonight?”
“It’s a rare occasion, and it would be a shame to miss it.”
The other two girls, Gu Lerong and Zhong Hanyun, also stepped forward to smooth things over.
They had seen this situation many times before. Everyone knew that Zi Zhijie liked Murong Yumeng and Xiao Xueqing liked Zi Zhijie. It was because of this dynamic that Xiao Xueqing had always found Murong Yumeng displeasing. Usually, she would make sarcastic remarks.
However, Murong Yumeng was still the young lady of the Murong family and a legitimate one at that. Although her father wasn’t the head of the Murong family, his status couldn’t be underestimated. So, Xiao Xueqing could only resort to making a few snide remarks without taking any substantial action.
On the other hand, Murong Yumeng, despite being from the Murong family, had always had a good temperament since childhood. Therefore, whenever faced with Xiao Xueqing’s snide remarks, she remained silent and never got angry.
However, because of this, everyone felt that Xiao Xueqing was truly immature.
Meanwhile, Ye Leng’an and Huangfu Ruiling left the homestay and headed towards the large gathering. It was already evening, and although the gathering hadn’t officially started, many stalls were already open for business. So, it was quite appropriate for them to go now.
The two held hands and strolled down the street like any other couple. But their outstanding looks and demeanor still attracted many onlookers.
Ye Leng’an occasionally glanced at Huangfu Ruiling with an unknown glint in her eyes.
Huangfu Ruiling felt a bit helpless. He turned to Ye Leng’an and asked with a smile, “Are you satisfied with what you see?”
“Of course.” Ye Leng’an nodded earnestly. She even reached out and touched his face. “How could I not be satisfied with such a beautiful face!”
It was a rather forward gesture, but Ye Leng’an executed it smoothly, almost flirtatiously.
Huangfu Ruiling indulged her actions and didn’t feel any dissatisfaction. Instead, he smiled and said, “Then take your time to admire. You have a lifetime to do so.”
“Yes, indeed!” Ye Leng’an wasn’t shy at all. She smiled and nodded. “How good-looking! You are mine and no one can covet you.”
Hearing Ye Leng’an’s possessive words, Huangfu Ruiling didn’t feel displeased. Instead, he felt secretly pleased. He liked her possessiveness because it showed how much she valued him.
“Just now, Murong Yumeng was staring at your face!” Ye Leng’an raised her eyebrows. “Do you think she recognized you?”
“She couldn’t have recognized us,” Huangfu Ruiling said lightly. “She hasn’t seen us before, so she couldn’t know who we are.”
Although Murong Yumeng was from the Murong family, she wasn’t qualified to attend their engagement ceremony. So, even if she heard familiar names, she wouldn’t be able to guess their identities immediately.
“Then it seems she only likes your face.” Ye Leng’an chuckled. “But it’s understandable. You’re so good-looking that it’s normal for Murong Yumeng to admire your beauty.”
If someone else had said that, Huangfu Ruiling would have been furious. After all, no man liked to be described as beautiful. However, since it was Ye Leng’an, Huangfu Ruiling didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.
“Is that considered a compliment?”
“Of course.” Ye Leng’an nodded earnestly. “I’m complimenting your good looks!”
“Then I have to thank you for your praise!” Huangfu Ruiling shook his head helplessly, then rubbed her hair with his other hand.
“Don’t mess with my hair,” Ye Leng’an pulled his hand away and said angrily. “You’ve messed up my hair. I still need to take photos later!”
Seeing her rare childishness, a trace of tenderness flashed in Huangfu Ruiling’s eyes. “Okay, I’ll help you take photos later.”
“You know how to take photos?” Ye Leng’an raised her head and looked at Huangfu Ruiling with a charming smile. “I didn’t know you had this skill!”
“I don’t,” Huangfu Ruiling said without guilt, “but I can learn!”
Hearing that, Ye Leng’an felt a little speechless. “So, you’re using me as a guinea pig.”
“How could that be!” Huangfu Ruiling looked at her and said with a smile, “You’re pretty, so you’ll always be good-looking in the photos.”
Hearing Huangfu Ruiling’s words, Ye Leng’an was a little surprised. “I didn’t expect you to sweet-talk! That’s really rare!
She thought that given Huangfu Ruiling’s personality, he would never say such things!
“Alright, let’s hurry up and go!” Huangfu Ruiling held her hand and continued walking forward. “If we delay any longer, the gathering will start soon.”
