Chapter 795: Feeling Unwelcome

As soon as these words were spoken, the temperature around Huangfu Ruiling dropped visibly, causing an evident chill to permeate the entire room. This abrupt change left everyone puzzled, as in their eyes, Ye Hongxuan’s actions seemed justified. After all, Ye Wanwan was his biological daughter, so it was only natural for him to protect her.

Moreover, it was the birthday of Old Master Ye. While Ye Leng’an, as the fiancée of Master Huangfu, was an esteemed guest, it wasn’t appropriate for her to be so a.s.sertive on someone else’s turf.

“Master Ye is indeed a devoted father!” Huangfu Ruiling remarked, his tone carrying a hint of coldness as he looked at Ye Hongxuan. “One can’t help but wonder if your daughter is fortunate or unfortunate to have a father like you.”

Although Ye Leng’an seemed indifferent to Ye Hongxuan, his actions clearly incensed Huangfu Ruiling. While verbally expressing the desire to reconcile with An’an and hoping for her return to the Ye family, his actions leaned towards defending Ye Wanwan at every turn. If that was the case, he should refrain from a.s.suming the role of a father in front of An’an and avoid eliciting disgust.

Most bystanders were perplexed by Huangfu Ruiling’s words, unable to decipher his intentions. However, his evident displeasure discouraged anyone from challenging him further.

In contrast to Huangfu Ruiling’s demeanor, Ye Leng’an remained composed, showing no sign of agitation. She disregarded Ye Hongxuan’s protective stance towards Ye Wanwan and the subtle provocations directed at her, unfazed by the situation.

Only those who cared would feel distressed by Ye Hongxuan’s actions. Yet, Ye Leng’an harbored no sentiments towards him. If not for their blood ties, they might not have crossed paths at all. Hence, Ye Hongxuan’s words failed to evoke any emotion in her.

Huangfu Ruiling’s remark caught Ye Hongxuan off guard, prompting him to furrow his brows. He saw no fault in his words, merely wis.h.i.+ng to prevent further escalation of the situation.

“It’s nothing more than ensuring the celebration proceeds smoothly on Father’s birthday,” Lian Mengzhu chimed in, attempting to defuse the tension. “As juniors, we wish to bring joy to Father’s festivities. If anything has caused you discomfort, we apologize.”

Observing Ye Hongxuan and Lian Mengzhu’s indifference, Huangfu Ruiling’s eyes flashed with a cold gleam. However, before he could voice his thoughts, he felt a tug on his sleeve.

Ye Leng’an’s gesture silenced Huangfu Ruiling, who refrained from speaking further under her signal.

After Huangfu Ruiling’s silence, Ye Leng’an turned her gaze back to Ye Hongxuan. With a faint smile, she advised, “Master Ye, while I understand your desire to protect your daughter, perhaps you should focus on guiding her to avoid provoking me. I believe you’re well aware of my temper. Should she provoke me again, even I can’t guarantee my reaction.”

At her words, Ye Hongxuan, Lian Mengzhu, and Ye Wanwan stiffened, recalling Ye Leng’an’s ruthless act of crippling Ye Wanwan’s dantian.

Especially Ye Wanwan, who couldn’t help but s.h.i.+ver at the memory.

The agony of her shattered dantian and the subsequent recovery surpa.s.sed comprehension. The excruciating pain inflicted by Ye Leng’an haunted her, instilling a sense of dread whenever she reminisced about it.

Observing Ye Wanwan’s reaction, Ye Leng’an nodded in satisfaction.

“Miss Ye, arrogance begets downfall.”

At that moment, an elderly voice interjected, none other than Ye Yikun. With narrowed eyes and a sharp gaze, he addressed Ye Leng’an, “Today marks my birthday. Do you deem your actions appropriate?”

While Ye Leng’an’s return promised benefits for the Ye family, it didn’t excuse her audacious behavior. Especially on such an auspicious occasion, her insolence as his granddaughter was unforgivable.

Upon her return, he would ensure she learned the proper etiquette.

“I find nothing inappropriate in my actions today.” Ye Leng’an shrugged, indifferent to Ye Yikun’s reproach. “Moreover, didn’t Ye Wanwan bring this upon herself? Outsiders may not understand our relations.h.i.+p, but surely you do. She addressed me so casually as ‘sister.’ Are you certain it wasn’t a provocation?”

Unaware of Ye Yikun’s thoughts, she continued, expressing her disdain. If she knew, she would have retorted immediately. What audacity it took to presume to teach her manners!

Upon hearing Ye Leng’an’s words, Ye Wanwan’s pupils contracted, and then she hurriedly spoke up to explain, “I really didn’t mean anything else, I just wanted to get close to Miss Ye. I…”

Ye Wanwan’s panicked explanation evoked sympathy, while Ye Leng’an’s aggressive demeanor irked some bystanders.

Facing such a situation, an ordinary person would undoubtedly panic. Yet, Ye Leng’an remained composed, looking at Ye Yikun directly, continuing, “Old Master Ye, may I infer that the Ye family does not welcome our presence here?”
