Full-Level Rich Daughter Makes a Strong Comeback - Chapter 909

Chapter 909: The Reward

Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

“No matter who proposed it, it must have been Zhong Yating who first conceived the idea,” Huangfu Ruiling remarked lightly. “Huangfu Ruixiang isn’t the type to consider every detail, so it’s unlikely he would notice such a thing.”

He had some insight into his so-called younger brother.

“So it’s probably her who guided Huangfu Ruixiang into thinking this way!” Ye Leng’an nodded knowingly. “However, Huangfu Ruixiang will probably find it very difficult to shake off Zhong Yating for the rest of his life. Originally, because of Huangfu Jingzhang’s matter, he already felt guilty towards Zhong Yating. Plus, Zhong Yating is very scheming and knows how to leverage her advantages. Huangfu Ruixiang won’t be able to escape.”

“He brought this upon himself,” Huangfu Ruiling said without a hint of sympathy. “He’s reaping what he sowed. However, Zhong Yating’s advantage is only temporary. Such guilt won’t last forever.”

Whether it was Huangfu Jingzhang or Zhongyu Liuying, they weren’t grateful people. Their current protection of Zhong Yating was only temporary. As time passed, such gratitude and guilt would fade away.

That was their cold-hearted approach.

“So, Zhong Yating wants to take Li Yiran’s son!” Ye Leng’an tilted her head and smiled. “She won’t be able to have children in this lifetime. Li Yiran’s child is still a baby and won’t remember anything. So, she can raise that child as her own.”

She had known Zhong Yating was cunning in the past. Now, after some time had passed, her cunning seemed to have deepened. However, ultimately, this should be Huangfu Ruixiang’s fault! If he hadn’t pressured her step by step, perhaps Zhong Yating wouldn’t have become like this today.

However, it was also uncertain. After all, Zhong Yating was not to be trifled with. The reason she held onto Huangfu Ruixiang tightly was because she had her own motives, not because of love.

“Don’t worry too much about other people’s matters.” Huangfu Ruiling took Ye Leng’an’s hand, a hint of jealousy in his tone. “Don’t you think you should spend more time on your fiancé?”

After hearing Huangfu Ruiling’s words, Ye Leng’an waved her hand, sniffed, and said teasingly, “Where did this jealousy come from? Someone is jealous?”

“It’s your fiancé who’s jealous.” Huangfu Ruiling raised his eyebrows, sounding confident. “If you don’t give me more attention, I’ll be even more jealous in the future.”

Ye Leng’an was left speechless by his matter-of-fact response. She reached out and pinched Huangfu Ruixiang’s cheek. “You! You dare to say anything! If others heard this, your image would be instantly shattered.”

Who would have thought that the patriarch of the Huangfu family would say such things with such a stern face? It didn’t match his cold and heartless image at all!

Huangfu Ruiling reached out and pulled Ye Leng’an into his arms, whispering in her ear. His warm breath enveloped her.

“An’an, I never need to put on a facade in front of you. I’m always my true self, and I don’t mind letting you know my true feelings.”

The warm breath by her ear made Ye Leng’an pause for a moment, but she quickly recovered. She turned her head and kissed Huangfu Ruiling’s cheek. “Well said. That’s your reward.”

Huangfu Ruiling chuckled softly. “It’s not a romantic phrase, but a sincere one.”

As Ye Leng’an listened to his laughter, a sweet smile appeared on her lips.

In the Hidden World’s Ye family, at this moment, Ye Wanwan was in her room, looking relaxed.

Murong Xingrui had just left. After several days of contemplation and crafting excuses, she finally managed to temporarily appease him

Though she wasn’t entirely sure about Murong Xingrui’s thoughts, she was confident he wouldn’t consider breaking off the engagement for now.

This outcome temporarily relieved her. At least with this marriage, her grandfather wouldn’t take any action against her.

As Ye Wanwan was lost in thought, a servant knocked on her door and informed her that the old master wanted to see her.

Hearing this, Ye Wanwan couldn’t help but feel nervous again.

It hadn’t been long since Murong Xingrui left, and now her grandfather wanted to see her. She wasn’t sure if it was related to that matter. She felt a bit scared.

Especially with rumors flying around about her, even during her recovery, she couldn’t help but overhear some gossip.

But what scared her most was that during her recovery, her father hadn’t visited her once.

She didn’t know if her father was disappointed in her because of what happened at the banquet, or if he didn’t want to acknowledge her as his daughter.

The only comfort was that her mother visited her often. This reassured her somewhat. At least one of her parents was willing to stand by her side.

Now, hearing her grandfather wanted to see her, she felt anything but happy. She was worried.

But regardless of her feelings, Ye Wanwan had to muster the courage to go to her grandfather’s courtyard.

In the courtyard, Ye Yikun sat on a chair with tea and snacks beside him, looking like an ordinary old man enjoying life. But the powerful aura and serious expression he exuded indicated otherwise.

Seeing Ye Yikun like this, Ye Wanwan’s legs trembled. If she could, she wouldn’t want to see her grandfather at all. She was always extremely nervous when she saw him, afraid of being kicked out of the Ye family.

Ye Yikun’s silence made Ye Wanwan’s mind race with various guesses. Her expression became increasingly unsightly, and panic continued to spread in her heart. Sweat covered her forehead, and she looked like she might collapse at any moment.
