“Zixin?” Ye Leng’an’s pupils constricted, but her expression remained unchanged. “Your sister’s name sounds pretty good!”
Upon hearing Ye Leng’an’s words, Lian Mengzhu had a moment of bewilderment. She wasn’t sure what Ye Lengan meant, but the atmosphere was pleasant. Taking advantage of this, she extended an invitation.
“Miss Ye, it’s almost noon. Since you’re not willing to accept the jewelry, would you do me the honor of having lunch with us?”
Ye Wanwan felt a bit anxious upon hearing her mother’s invitation. If not for her mother’s insistence, she wouldn’t even want to share the same air as Ye An’an. Seeing her mother chatting happily with Ye An’an, a sense of panic welled up within her.
If possible, she would have liked to pull her mother away directly now. Unexpectedly, her mother was now even extending an invitation for Ye An’an to join them for lunch.
Under normal circumstances, Ye Leng’an would certainly refuse such an invitation. However, now she had her own thoughts, so contrary to her usual behavior, she directly accepted Lian Mengzhu’s invitation.
Upon hearing the other party’s response, Ye Wanwan’s mood was far from good. Originally, she thought that given their previous unpleasant interactions, it was impossible for Ye An’an to accept her mother’s invitation. However, now, Ye An’an surprisingly agreed.
Even though she didn’t understand Ye An’an’s intentions or why she agreed to her mother’s invitation, she certainly didn’t want to have lunch with her. Yet, at this point, leaving was not an option. She couldn’t allow her mother and Ye An’an to be alone.
Soon, they were seated in a private room of a restaurant owned by the Ye family, specializing in medicinal cuisine. Lian Mengzhu had her exclusive room here. Despite the dining hour, they faced no hindrances, swiftly arriving at the private room and placing their orders.
Ye Leng’an surveyed the surroundings, appreciating the faint yet soothing aroma of medicinal herbs. She was content with the establishment.
After the waiter left, Lian Mengzhu smiled at Ye Lengan and said, “Miss Ye, I don’t know your culinary preferences, so I took the liberty of bringing you to this restaurant. I heard you’re an alchemist, and you might appreciate the medicinal cuisine here. If there are any shortcomings, I’d appreciate your guidance.”
Ye Leng’an acknowledged. “So this is a property of the Ye family!’
“Yes!” Ye Wanwan’s demeanor was proud. “The Ye family owns various properties, most related to medicinal herbs. After all, we are a family of alchemists! ”
Unspoken was the fact that the Ye family had a deep heritage in alchemy, distinct from Ye Anan, an unconventional alchemist.
Ye Leng’an’s expression remained unchanged after hearing Ye Wanwan!s words. She coldly replied, “I see.”
Ye Wanwan was displeased with Ye Leng’an’s cold response, feeling she was putting on an act.
Despite being Huangfu Ling’s fiancée, she felt no respect for Ye Anan. Never having heard of Ye An’an before, it seemed she wasn’t from a prominent family and lacked significant abilities.
If not for being Huangfu Lings fiancée, she wouldn’t even qualify to dine with them. In the end, if Ye An’an didn’t have Huangfu Ling as her backing, nobody knew where she would be right now.
In the end, she was a woman relying on a man.
Despite her discontent, Ye Wanwan couldn’t voice her thoughts. She could only watch as her mother and Ye An’an engaged in a pleasant conversation. She couldn’t fathom why her mother held Ye An’an in such high regard despite their strained relationship..
