“How could she be Ruilings other half!” Huangfu Jingzhang said with certainty. “The elders in the family will definitely not agree to this either.”
“But will Brother listen to the elders?” Huangfu Ruixiang spoke up softly beside him. “He doesn’t even listen to you all, I doubt the elders can stop anything.”
After all, although Huangfu Ruiling was only the Young Master in name, he had already grasped great power in the Huangfu family. The elders’ advice was not even within Huangfu Ruilings considerations.
Moreover, although they were speaking here, it was still unknown whether the elders would even step in. Who’s to say the elders wouldn’t be afraid to offend Huangfu Ruiling and not dare to say much?
Although Huangfu Ruixiangs voice was soft, it was loud enough for Huangfu Jingzhang and Zhongyu Liuying to hear clearly.
At the same time, it made Huangfu Jingzhangs already somber expression become even more gloomy. Although he was unwilling to admit it, what Huangfu Ruixiang said was very likely.
After a long silence, Huangfu Jingzhang looked toward Zhongyu Liuying and spoke again, “How are things on the Ye family’s side? Didn’t the young lady of the Ye family, Ye Wanwan, have plans to marry Ruiling?”
“Indeed there is such a matter.’
When it came to the Ye family, Zhongyu Liuyings expression lightened somewhat. “Wanwan is quite compatible with Ruiling. At such a young age, she already occupies an important position in the Ye family. If we can get Wanwan’s help, our standing in the Hidden World’s Huangfu family will also be much higher.”
Although the Huangfu family was already one of the four great families in the capital, they were still insignificant compared to the Hidden World’s Huangfu family. If it wasn’t for Huangfu Ruilings prominent status in the Hidden World’s Huangfu family, they would truly have no standing at all in front of the Hidden World’s Huangfu family.
“Then settle this matter as soon as possible,” Huangfu Jingzhang said. “It’s best if you can find a way to let Ruiling meet Wanwan. Once Ruiling sees
Wanwan, he will know what kind of woman is most suitable for him.”
Zhongyu Liuying frowned. “This will be difficult. As the young lady of the Ye family, Wanwan rarely leaves the Hidden World. Moreover, if we tell her the whole truth, this marriage might be called off.”
“That disobedient child,” Huangfu Jingzhang couldn’t help but feel the anger welling up inside him. “He doesn’t even know what’s best for him. That Ye
Lengan, with no status, background, or abilities, all she has left is her face. What benefit can such a woman bring to his future?”
“As for Ye Wanwan, why don’t we just make it official?” Zhongyu Liuying suggested, “Once things are settled, there will be no way for Ruiling to oppose it. Both the Ye family and the Huangfu family are prominent families in the
Hidden World. As soon as the news is released, it will become a fait accompli. Even if Ruiling finds out, he won’t be able to change the course of events. Not just us, the Hidden World’s Huangfu family will also put pressure on him!”
Upon hearing Zhongyu Liuyings words, Huangfu Jingzhang fell into deep thought, evidently also considering the chances of success in doing this.
On the other hand, Huangfu Ruixiang, hearing his parents’ conversation, couldn’t help but feel alarmed. He immediately tried to dissuade them, “Dad, Mom, you can’t really be thinking of doing this! If Brother finds out, he will definitely fall out with you.”
What kind of person Huangfu Ruiling was, didn’t his parents know clearly?
After so many years, how could they still not understand their eldest son? Was Huangfu Ruiling someone who could be coerced? He was afraid that his parents would make too big a fuss over this and be unable to resolve it in the end.
“He dares!” Huangfu Jingzhangs voice was loud, but strangely carried a hint of unease. “Am l, as his father, no longer allowed to interfere in his marriage affairs? Moreover, the one I’ve chosen for him is the young lady of a prestigious family in the Hidden World. Isn’t this good for him?”
“Dad, you know Brother’s temperament. If he really flares up over this, how will you resolve it?” Huangfu Ruixiang also sensed Huangfu Jingzhangs lack of confidence.. He continued, “l think you should discuss properly with Brother first before making any decisions!”
