“Of course,” Ye Leng’an agreed promptly, with a hint of coaxing in her tone. “After all, you’re my beloved fiancé! If it weren’t for wanting to settle this matter soon, I would have come to see you first. But even though I didn’t rush to see you, I’m still the first to share such good news with you.”
Huangfu Ruiling couldn’t help but chuckle at Ye Leng’an’s tone, reminiscent of coaxing a child. Yet, a softness flickered in his eyes, indicating his fondness for Ye Leng’an.
After some sweet exchanges, they finally ended the call.
Despite the tenderness lingering on Huangfu Ruiling’s face after hanging up, it vanished as soon as he stepped into the meeting room. He resumed his cold demeanor instantly.
Though the meeting continued, despite the CEO’s unchanged expression, everyone sensed a considerable improvement in his mood.
However, no one dared to let their guard down.
Meanwhile, Ye Leng’an wasted no time and went straight to the Hidden World.
In the Ye family of the Hidden World, upon hearing the servant’s report, Ye Hongxuan couldn’t believe his ears. “Who came to visit?”
He was taken aback. Ye Leng’an had indeed paid a visit. Was this for real? Previously, she had been quite resistant to the Ye family. Yet, here she was, showing up unannounced.
“Master, it’s indeed Miss Ye who came to visit,” the servant confirmed. “She’s currently waiting in the main hall.”
Though they were mere servants, they were aware of the recent rumors. Despite the fiancée of the head of the Huangfu family having the surname Ye, nobody speculated about her connection with the Ye family. However, the recent rumors about Miss Ye being the biological child of the patriarch and matriarch and the twin of the young lady were explosive.
This revelation was shocking. Yet, there was no confirmation from either the Ye or Huangfu families, so it remained mere gossip.
Nevertheless, who would have thought Miss Ye would personally come knocking today?
“I’ll go over right away.
Ye Hongxuan hastily got up, ready to head to the main hall. However, he hesitated and turned back. “Go to the main courtyard and inform Madam about Miss Ye’s visit. Ask her to come over as well.”
“Understood,” the servant replied, then tentatively asked, “Should we also inform the young lady?”
Upon hearing this, Ye Hongxuan fell silent for a moment before shaking his head. “There’s no need to inform her.”
From their previous encounters, it was evident that Leng’an still harbored resistance towards Wanwan. It was rare for Leng’an to visit today, which was a positive sign. If Wanwan’s presence led to any negative consequences, it would be challenging to welcome Leng’an back in the future.
After Ye Hongxuan’s response, the servant headed to the main courtyard.
However, doubts lingered in the servant’s mind. Weren’t the young lady and Miss Ye supposed to be twins? Miss Ye had come to visit personally, and Master and Madam had gone to meet her, so why wasn’t the young lady informed? It was a family of four, so why exclude the young lady?
Despite the confusion, the servant knew his place and refrained from saying anything.
Ye Hongxuan arrived at the main hall. Before entering, he spotted Ye Leng’an inside, calmly sipping tea.
She looked completely at ease as if she belonged there. There was no hint of unease or tension.
Watching her, Ye Hongxuan couldn’t help but feel a little dazed.
At that moment, it almost seemed as if Ye Leng’an had never left the Ye residence and had been living there all along.
Ye Leng’an was aware of Ye Hongxuan’s presence the moment he appeared. However, since he didn’t immediately enter, she pretended not to notice and continued amusing herself.
After a few minutes, Ye Hongxuan walked in slowly. “Leng’an.”
Though he called out to her, he wasn’t sure what to say next. None of their previous encounters had been pleasant, and he didn’t know the purpose of Ye Leng’an’s visit, leaving him unsure of what to say.
“Master Ye.” Ye Leng’an nodded at Ye Hongxuan, who was already seated at the head of the table, and spoke, “I apologize for my sudden visit today.”
“What are you apologizing for?” Ye Hongxuan interjected quickly. “Leng’an, this is your home. You’re welcome here anytime.”
Upon hearing this, Ye Leng’an couldn’t help but curl her lips into a cold smile. She continued, “Master Ye, I’m here today because of the rumors circulating outside.”
Come back? Ye Hongxuan must be joking! Did he really think these rumors could make her return to the Ye family? It was absurd. Yet, the most ludicrous part was the rumor about her and Ye Wanwan being twins.
Who gave Ye Hongxuan the right to assume that she would obediently accept these rumors spread by the Ye family without her consent? Did she seem like someone who would tolerate being treated like a doormat?
“That’s not just a rumor,” Ye Hongxuan said firmly, meeting Ye Leng’an’s gaze. “We both know it’s the truth. You are indeed Mengzhu and my biological child. Blood ties cannot be changed. Leng’an, you can’t deny that.”
“Is that so?” Ye Leng’an’s indifferent expression turned cold, and she continued, “Then is it also true that Ye Wanwan and I are twins? Master Ye, I need a serious answer to this question.”
Ye Hongxuan was left speechless and even felt a twinge of guilt.
He had considered that this might anger Ye Leng’an, but it was his father’s decision, and he couldn’t resist it. Now that Ye Leng’an had come to confront him, he truly didn’t know how to respond.
