However, even in such a situation, he did not resist Zhong Yating’s tenderness. After all, he was just an ordinary man, so he naturally enjoyed this kind of ambiguity.
“This isn’t something we can know.” Zhong Yating looked at Huangfu
Ruixiang, her smile becoming even warmer. “But they say her name is Ye An’an. The elders in the family really admire her! I heard that now, in the family, her status is exactly the same as the family head.”
“Ye Aryan.” Huangfu Ruixiang frovvned, a hint of doubt flashing in his eyes.
“The family head’s name is Huangfu Ling, right?”
“Yes!” Zhong Yating smiled, responding to Huangfu Ruixiangs words. “Ruixiang, what’s wrong with you?! Can’t you even remember the family head’s name? But, in the future, it’s better not to directly utter those three words. The family head’s name is not something we can casually mention.” At this point, Huangfu Ruixiangs confusion deepened.
Huangfu Ling and Huangfu Ruiling, Ye An’an and Ye Lengan – why were their names so similar? No matter how he looked at it, it seemed like aliases. More importantly, he hadn’t seen Huangfu Ruiling since he arrived in the Hidden World.
Huangfu Ruiling had joined the Huangfu family earlier than him, and he knew well that Huangfu Ruiling held a significant position in the family. However, he couldn’t find any information about Huangfu Ruiling within the Huangfu family. Yet, he never believed Huangfu Ruiling was lying, as an elder had warned him not to inquire about Huangfu Ruiling.
At that time, he wouldn’t have connected Huangfu Ruiling with Huangfu Ling.
But now, knowing that the family head Huangfu Ling’s fiancée was named Ye An’an, an absurd thought surfaced. Could Huangfu Ruiling and Huangfu Ling be the same person? His brother, Huangfu Ruiling, was the head of the Huangfu family in the Hidden World.
No, it was impossible.
On second thought, Huangfu Ruixiang felt he might be overthinking. Huangfu Ruiling was in a wheelchair, while the family head, Huangfu Ling, was not. He had never doubted Huangfu Ruiling’s leg injury, certified by numerous authoritative doctors. Even when his grandfather was alive, attempts were made to consult Hidden World physicians, and all diagnoses unanimously affirmed that Huangfu Ruiling would never stand again.
Though he kept reassuring himself, the seed of doubt in Huangfu Ruixiangs heart continued to sprout.
“Ruixiang, Ruixiang, what’s wrong with you?” Zhong Yating quickly called out to him. “What are you thinking?”
With Zhong Yating’s call, Huangfu Ruixiang snapped out of his thoughts. He smiled and shook his head. “Nothing, I just miss home a little.”
“Oh, do you?” Zhong Yating smiled and continued, “It’s okay. After the Family Competition, you can go home and take a look. But I really envy you! I don’t have a home. Even if I want to go back, there’s no one at home. So, even if I have free time, I won’t go back.”
Towards the end, her tone carried a touch of sadness, and her eyes even appeared moist. After saying that, she quietly awaited Huangfu Ruixiangs comfort.
Yet, she didn’t see any response from him.
Huangfu Ruixiang didn’t even register Zhong Yating’s words. His mind was consumed by his own speculations. Although he considered it pure fantasy, he couldn’t suppress the irrational thoughts.
Observing Huangfu Ruixiangs inaction, Zhong Yating decided to take matters into her own hands.
Just then, Huangfu Ruixiang smiled at Zhong Yating and said, “Yating, I’m sorry. I suddenly remembered there are some matters I need to attend to. I’ll head back first. Practice well on your own!”
With that, Huangfu Ruixiang hurriedly departed.
He intended to find a way to contact his parents first and ask for their help in checking if Ye Lengan was still in the mortal world..
