Chapter 946: Improper Intentions

“This is my guest!” Zhongyu Liuying stood up, smiling as she explained, “We really shouldn’t have invited anyone over today. But, it’s rare for someone from the Hidden World’s Zhongyu family to visit, so I asked her to join us for the occasion.”

As she spoke, she glanced around the room and continued, “I believe everyone wouldn’t mind!”

Though she said this, in reality, she had already decided. She was simply informing them now.

“Today being Brother’s birthday, as long as he’s okay with it, we have no objections,” Huangfu Jingxian said casually.

“I certainly don’t mind,” Huangfu Jingzhang added, shaking his head. “Having more people come to bless me would indeed be delightful.”

Meanwhile, Ye Leng’an cracked melon seeds, watching the exchange between Huangfu Jingzhang and Zhongyu Liuying with great interest.

She bet that Zhongyu Liuying’s mentioned guest was Zhongyu Lingshan. No one else would fit the bill. However, Zhongyu Lingshan’s persistence was remarkable! Despite using the same tactics repeatedly, she refused to give up.

As Huangfu Ruiling caught Ye Leng’an’s teasing gaze, he couldn’t help but feel puzzled.

Seeing Huangfu Ruiling’s confusion, Ye Leng’an nearly burst out laughing.

If Zhongyu Lingshan knew she had no presence in Huangfu Ruiling’s eyes, would she feel like crying?

As Huangfu Ruiling observed Ye Leng’an’s amused expression, he felt oddly unsettled but chose to say nothing.

Before long, the servant escorted Zhongyu Liuying’s mentioned guest into the room. As soon as Ye Leng’an saw her, she couldn’t help but smirk. As expected, it was none other than Zhongyu Lingshan

“So it’s Miss Lingshan!” Huangfu Jingzhang stood up eagerly. “I never expected you to bless me on my birthday. No wonder I heard magpies singing this morning; it was an auspicious sign of your arrival!”

“Mr. Huangfu, you’re too kind!” Zhongyu Lingshan glanced at Huangfu Jingzhang before turning her attention to Huangfu Ruiling, who had barely looked her way since her arrival. “I happened to be in the mortal world for a few days on business. Hearing it was your birthday, I thought to join in the festivities. And, of course, with Master Huangfu present, it’s only proper I pay my respects. I just wonder if Mr. Huangfu welcomes my presence.”

Though she spoke courteously, it was evident to anyone with a discerning eye that Zhongyu Lingshan’s interest lay with Huangfu Ruiling.

Huangfu Jingzhang’s smile seemed strained. “You are most welcome, as any distinguished guest would be.”

Despite knowing Zhongyu Lingshan’s intentions, he couldn’t shake off the discomfort. Especially today was his birthday. Couldn’t Zhongyu Lingshan be more discreet?

The others in the living room exchanged glances between Zhongyu Lingshan, Huangfu Ruiling, and Ye Leng’an, waiting for a reaction from Ye Leng’an, as Zhongyu Lingshan openly coveted her fiancé.

Most notably, Zhongyu Lingshan bore a striking resemblance to Ye Leng’an. Thus, if Huangfu Ruiling could fall for Ye Leng’an, perhaps Zhongyu Lingshan could be next.

Li Yiran’s eyes gleamed with schadenfreude as she awaited Ye Leng’an’s fate.When her child was almost taken away, Ye Leng’an refused to help, regardless of Li Yiran’s pleas. If Ye Leng’an had spoken up then, her son wouldn’t be Zhong Yating’s now

How arrogant Ye Leng’an had been! Now, her position was precarious.

If Huangfu Ruiling were to abandon Ye Leng’an, she’d be nothing but an orphan. Nothing to fear! At that point, Li Yiran would make sure Ye Leng’an begged for mercy!

The thought made Li Yiran’s gaze toward Ye Leng’an even more malicious.

Unlike Li Yiran, Zhong Yating, seated beside Huangfu Ruixiang, remained largely indifferent. Though curious, her thoughts were mostly on the baby in her arms. That baby was Huangfu Zihao, registered under her name. She treated the child as her own, dedicating all her energy to him.

Huangfu Ruixiang observed Zhong Yating’s every move, his admiration evident. He believed he had made the right decision.

Since the child’s registration under Zhong Yating’s name, she had cared for him as her own, even better than his biological mother, Li Yiran.

Ye Leng’an discreetly observed everyone’s reactions, finding it amusing. Li Yiran awaited her downfall, unaware of her own impending ruin. If this continued, Li Yiran wouldn’t remain by Huangfu Ruixiang’s side for long!

However, none of this concerned Ye Leng’an. She had her sights set on Zhongyu Lingshan. With that in mind, Ye Leng’an’s lips curved into a radiant smile. “I never expected Miss Zhongyu to see only my fiancé in her eyes! It seems being his fiancée, I have no presence!”

Zhongyu Lingshan’s response was cool, unruffled by Ye Leng’an’s sudden attack.

“Misunderstandings, Miss Ye,” Zhongyu Lingshan said calmly. “I have no improper intentions toward Master Huangfu. My visit is merely out of respect for the longstanding ties between the Zhongyu and Huangfu families. I hope you understand.

Zhongyu Lingshan wasn’t afraid of Ye Leng’an’s hostility; she welcomed it. She knew no man appreciated an overly possessive partner, especially someone like Huangfu Ruiling.

From her investigations, Ye Leng’an had always been aloof, which was likely why she’d captured Huangfu Ruiling’s affections.
