“Of course not, Xiyuan. Don’t overthink it.” Nangong Xuyao looked at Ye Xiyuan gently, reached out, and stroked her hair, smiling as he said, “How could I misunderstand you because of a few words from someone else?

Moreover, you’re not that kind of person.”

After hearing Nangong Xuyao’s words, Ye Xiyuan’s voice trembled slightly as she asked, “Nangong, do you really believe in me?”

At this moment, she simply could not suppress the panic in her heart. She always felt that because of Huangfu Ruilings words tonight, all her previous efforts might be rendered useless.

No, she absolutely could not let things develop like this. If she lost Nangong Xuyao, she would never be able to match up to Ye Lengan.

Nangong Xuyao gently pulled Ye Xiyuan into his embrace, his tone gentle. “Xiyuan, of course I believe you.”

“So, I hope you won’t let me down.” This was the sentence Nangong Xuyao did not say aloud.

Huangfu Ruilings words tonight had indeed planted seeds of doubt in his heart. He was not very clear on what kind of person Huangfu Ruiling was, but he could be certain that Huangfu Ruiling would never say these things to him for no reason. Therefore, he would definitely investigate the matter again. Of course, this was something he would not let Ye Xiyuan know about. On the other side, after making sure they had walked far enough, Ye Lengan looked at Huangfu Ruiling and asked in confusion, “Ruiling, what did you mean by those words to Nangong Xuyao today?”

“It’s nothing.” Huangfu Ruiling shook his head and said, “I’ll tell you when we go back later.”

He had planned to tell Ye Lengan about Nangong Xuyao, but the current situation wasn’t suitable for such a conversation. This was a crowded party venue, with people coming and going. Even if he were cautious, there was no guarantee that someone wouldn’t overhear their conversation.

Therefore, it was better to wait until there were just the two of them left before he said it.

After hearing Huangfu Ruiling’s words, Ye Lengan raised her eyebrows but did not continue asking anything more.

However, a doubt had taken root in her heart at this moment.

Ye Lengan did not dwell on it further. She directly picked up a plate and started choosing her favorite snacks.

After taking the snacks, she returned to Huangfu Ruilings side and sat down. Then she chatted with him while tasting the snacks, occasionally feeding him a bite or two.

It was evident that Huangfu Ruiling did not like these sweet snacks. However, he still ate what Ye Lengan fed him. From his slightly furrowed brows, it could be seen that he was not fond of these snacks.

Seeing Huangfu Ruilings expression, Ye Lengan at his side felt amused and teased him from time to time.

The two of them got along harmoniously and intimately. On the other side, Huangfu Jingzhang, Zhongyu Liuying and Huangfu Ruixiang all had stern faces, looking like they wanted to avoid contact with anyone.

Initially, they had intended to try and keep Huangfu Ruiling occupied, allowing Huangfu Ruixiang to negotiate with Ye Lengan so that she would willingly break up with Huangfu Ruiling. However, they ended up with this outcome, and they were even warned by Huangfu Ruiling. How could their mood possibly improve in such a situation?

Those around them who originally wanted to go up and greet them, taking the opportunity to build ties, all consciously avoided them after seeing their gloomy expressions.

It wasn’t that they didn’t want to take advantage of this opportunity to get on good terms with the Huangfu family. It was just that the Huangfu family patriarch obviously looked very unhappy right now. Approaching them at this time might not lead to friendship but rather arouse their suspicion.

“Just who exactly is this Ye Lengan?” Huangfu Jingzhangs face was gloomy as he asked Zhongyu Liuying beside him, “Since you already knew of her existence, why didn’t you deal with it earlier?”

There was a hint of blame in his tone. He felt that if Zhongyu Liuying had dealt with Ye Lengan as soon as she found out about her, today’s incident would not have happened.

“l only found out about it recently.” Zhongyu Liuyings expression was not very good either, but she still patiently explained, “l had originally planned to deal with it after the New Year. I didn’t expect that Ye Lengan would actually have the ability to directly have Ruiling announce her status in front of so many people..”
