“l don’t need to accompany them on such an occasion.” As Nangong Xuyao spoke, he glanced at Ye Xiyuan. He thought for a moment and said, “Not only is the Huangfu family patriarch here, but Huangfu Ruiling is here too. There’s also…
He felt that he still needed to tell Ye Xiyuan, after all, the banquet venue was only so big, and it would be very easy to bump into them. It was better to give her a heads-up rather than meeting unexpectedly. However, before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Ye Xiyuan.
“Ye Lengan is here too, isn’t she?” Ye Xiyuan blurted out.
If Nangong Xuyao brought up a topic related to Huangfu Ruiling, it could only be about Ye Lengan.
“That’s right.” Nangong Xuyao wasn’t surprised that Ye Xiyuan could guess it. “In the past, Huangfu Ruiling never attended these banquets. But today, he came over and announced in public that Ye Leng’an was his girlfriend.”
As for Huangfu Ruiling declaring Ye Lengan as his future wife, he did not say it out loud. Because, although Huangfu Ruiling said so, the future was full of uncertainties. When two people were deeply in love, they naturally made promises about the future. However, as long as they weren’t married, there were always variables to consider.
“What?” Ye Xiyuan was so shocked that she almost couldn’t control her expression. However, she soon realized that she had overreacted, so she immediately calmed down and forced a smile, saying, “l didn’t expect Young Master Huangfu to like Ye Lengan so much. Now, he’s actually declaring their relationship in front of so many people. Ye Lengan is really lucky!”
Although she said that, she was extremely jealous of Ye Lengan. She didn’t expect Ye Leng’an to be so skilled at managing her relationship that she could make the young master of the Huangfu family publicly announce her identity. On the other hand, she had been in an ambiguous relationship with Nangong Xuyao for so long, but she still hadn’t gotten a clear status.
In fact, it had been so long before she was qualified to attend the Nangong family’s banquet. What did she lack compared to Ye Lengan that made her constantly lose to her?
“Who knows if they can make it to the end!” Nangong Xuyao’s tone carried a hint of disdain. “Even if they’re married, they can still divorce. They’re just boyfriend and girlfriend now, and it’s still full of uncertainty.”
After hearing Nangong Xuyao’s words, Ye Xiyuan didn’t feel comforted at all. Instead, she felt even more depressed. At least Ye Lengan now had a recognized status, while she had nothing but the label of a friend.
Now that Ye Lengan had been publicly acknowledged, Nangong Xuyao said that it was full of uncertainty. What about her? She didn’t even have a status now, so what was she to Nangong Xuyao?
Nangong Xuyao didn’t know what Ye Xiyuan was thinking. He felt that he had already done a lot for Ye Xiyuan. If he didn’t like Ye Xiyuan, he wouldn’t have planned so many things.
On the other side of the banquet venue, Ye Lengan and Huangfu Ruiling were resting.
Ye Lengan watched as the people present with cups and glasses clinking, engaged in conversation that seemed to be testing each other. She had a bored expression on her face.
“Why? Are you feeling bored?” Huangfu Ruiling looked at Ye Leng’an’s expression and said with a smile, “These kinds of gatherings can be like this. If you’re feeling bored, we can leave early!”
Originally, his purpose in bringing Ye Lengan to the Nangong family’s event today was simply to reveal her identity to others. Now that the goal had been achieved, there was no need to stay any longer.
“Forget it!” After hearing Huangfu Ruilings words, Ye Lengan couldn’t help but roll her eyes. “We just got here not long ago, and now we’re leaving? Are you here just to annoy the host?”
One had to know that they had just arrived here not long ago, at most only for half an hour. If they were to leave now, wouldn’t they be a laughingstock? “They won’t have any objections,” Huangfu Ruiling said lightly. “So, if you don’t like it, we will leave now.”
The Nangong family probably didn’t expect him to come. Even if he left now, the Nangong family wouldn’t say anything. However, even if they had opinions, it had nothing to do with him. He never cared about those unimportant people..
