Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
The engagement ceremony of the head of the Huangfu family was considered a significant event in the Hidden World. Invitations had been steadily received by the major families. However, the Ye family had yet to receive an invitation from the Huangfu family.
“You may leave!” Ye Hongxuan waved his hand, dismissing the disciple who had cfor the third ttoday with the sdisappointing news.
After the disciple left, Lian Mengzhu wore a worried expression. She raised her head, looking at Ye Hongxuan, and after a moment of contemplation, she spoke, “Hongxuan, do you think the Huangfu family might not intend to invite us?”
She understood they couldn’t attend in the nof Ye Leng’an’s parents, but not even having the qualification to attend troubled her.
“It won’t happen,” Ye Hongxuan said, though his lack of confidence was apparent. “It’s possible the invitation hasn’t been sent yet. The Ye family is a prominent alchemist family, one of the top ten alongside the Huangfu family. Even if the Huangfu family is powerful, they can’t completely disregard us. The invitation will come.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe couldn’t tell if he was saying it for his wife’s comfort or to convince himself.
“But…” Lian Mengzhu’s expression saddened. “Other major families have received the Huangfu family’s invitation, and even ssmaller families. We haven’t heard anything. Isn’t that unusual?
Ye Hongxuan sighed, acknowledging the uncertainty they faced.
“Hongxuan, do you think…” Lian Mengzhu hesitated before asking, “Should we send someone to the Huangfu family to inquire if they’ve forgotten our Ye family’s invitation?”
“Impossible.” Ye Hongxuan rejected the idea firmly. “We can’t. Father wouldn’t allow it either. Sending someone now would only bring shto the Ye family.”
If the Huangfu family had indeed forgotten, it was one thing. However, if they hadn’t intended to invite the Ye family from the beginning, visiting them would be an embarrassing move.
Because of the last incident, his father had been harboring resentment. If any rumors detrimental to the Ye family spread at this time, he would surely be infuriated. In the end, it would be unfortunate for them.
“But, if the Ye family doesn’t receive the invitation this time, then wouldn’t we not even be able to attend our own daughter’s engagement ceremony?” Lian Mengzhu’s voice quivered. “Moreover, if the Huangfu family really doesn’t intend to invite the Ye family this time, then rumors will still spread everywhere! Everyone will be guessing if our Ye family and the Huangfu family have fallen out.”
“We can’t do anything now. We can only continue to wait,” Ye Hongxuan said helplessly. “No matter what we do, it’s all wrong, so let’s just wait and see!”
“If the Huangfu family doesn’t give us an invitation, then we…” Lian Mengzhu almost couldn’t continue. She took a deep breath and tried to suppress the sadness in her heart before continuing, “Will we not be able to attend Leng’an’s engagement ceremony?”
Ye Hongxuan could not answer, choosing instead to remain silent. The atmosphere becparticularly somber.
“Don’t think too much.” Ye Hongxuan finally consoled his wife. “Even if we can’t attend this time, it won’t change the blood relationship between us. She might still have sopinions about us now, but twill heal everything.”
“It won’t happen again,” Lian Mengzhu muttered, “I’m afraid that Leng’an will not return to the Ye family. Father will not let her return either.”
“Don’t worry, Father will,” Ye Hongxuan asserted, “As long as Leng’an becomes the matriarch of the Huangfu family, Father will definitely let Leng’an cback.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe understood his father’s priorities, always putting the family’s interests first. As long as Leng’an could bring benefits to the Ye family, his father would compromise in the end.
Lian Mengzhu fell silent. No one knew what she was thinking.
“By the way, how’s Wanwan doing now?” Ye Hongxuan suddenly asked, “Have you visited her these two days?”
“I’ve been there a few times. Wanwan’s condition is much better than a few days ago, but her body is still very weak,” Lian Mengzhu said. “She suffered a lot this time. Moreover, because her dantian was destroyed, Wanwan can’t heal herself now. Moreover, she can’t take many pills. I’m afraid it will take a long tfor her to recover.”
She paused for a moment, considering her words, before continuing, “Leng’an was really a little too ruthless this time. Although Wanwan had occupied her position for so many years, the main culprit of this matter was Lian Zixin. Wanwan can be considered innocent. She had no choice back then.”
Although Ye Leng’an had claimed Wanwan wanted to harm her, Lian Mengzhu found it hard to believe. Wanwan was raised by her and couldn’t be such a malicious child. There must be a misunderstanding.
“Don’t say these words in front of Leng’an,” Ye Hongxuan reminded her. “Her relationship with Wanwan wasn’t good to begin with. If she hears such words, she might hate Wanwan even more. It will beceven more difficult for them to get along well with each other.”
“I know.” Lian Mengzhu nodded. Then, a trace of hatred flashed in her eyes. “If Lian Zixin hadn’t swapped Leng’an, she wouldn’t be in this state now.”
“As for Lian Zixin, I won’t let her off.” Ye Hongxuan’s eyes flashed with a cold glint. “She must pay the price for what she has done.”
