Chapter 672: His Fiancée

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation  Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

If his acceptance as an inner sect disciple was indeed connected to Huangfu Ruiling, it would indicate that in Huangfu Ruilings perspective, his younger brother still held a certain position.

“You have too high an opinion of him.” Zhongyu Liuyings face showed a trace of dissatisfaction and resentment. “He’s a cold-hearted person. Now, in his eyes, there’s only Ye Lengan, and there’s no place for the rest of us!”

It could even be said that their current situation was a result of their past actions against Ye Lengan, leading to retaliation from Huangfu Ruiling. Despite being the closest family to Huangfu Ruiling, they were treated this way for the sake of a woman.

“Mom, don’t bring up these matters when Brother returns,” Huangfu Ruixiang reassured with a smile. “Regardless, Brother is now the head of the family. The entire Huangfu family must follow his orders. It’s not wise to clash with him.”

“Of course, I understand.” Though Zhongyu Liuying harbored resentment, she lowered her voice. “I’m just expressing my thoughts here. I wouldn’t dare say such things in front of him. Now that he’s the family head, what significance does my role as a mother hold?”

Huangfu Ruixiang naturally sensed the lingering resentment despite Zhongyu Liuying’s words.

However, he chose not to persist and changed the subject. “Mom, didn’t you mention Brother’s high status in the Hidden World’s main family? What exactly is his position there?”

This had been a lingering question for him. Although he had heard about it before, he hadn’t paid much attention until witnessing the status of family head Huangfu Ling and his fiancée, Ye Anan.

After Huangfu Ruixiangs inquiry, Zhongyu Liuying hesitated for a moment. Then, she spoke with uncertainty, “I’m not entirely sure about that. You know, your brother’s matters are never easily disclosed to us. If it weren’t for accidentally obtaining some information from Li Yi earlier, we might not know about this.’

Her heart was filled with resentment towards Huangfu Ruiling. Their relationship had never been deep, and Huangfu Ruiling had always been cold towards them as parents. Many times, she thought life would have been better if Huangfu Ruiling had died in that incident.

After Zhongyu Liuyings response, Huangfu Ruixiang fell into contemplation.

Suddenly, he felt that Huangfu Ruiling was truly mysterious. He knew nothing about his brother, not even the extent of his strength. It wasn’t just him; even their parents were in the dark.

Initially, he believed that Huangfu Ruilings personality had changed due to that incident. However, upon closer inspection, it seemed that Huangfu Ruiling had always been this cold before that event.

“Ruixiang, what’s on your mind?” Zhongyu Liuying gave him a gentle push as she observed his silent demeanor.

“Nothing.” Huangfu Ruixiang snapped back, shaking his head. “By the way, Niom, how is Li Yiran doing? Didn’t I ask you to arrange for her to recuperate elsewhere when I came back?”

“She’s still with Nangong Xiyu.” Mentioning this matter soured Zhongyu Liuyings mood. “Nangong Xiyu is holding onto this matter, insisting that she’s under the family head’s orders to take care of Li Yiran and her baby. So, she refuses to let Li Yiran leave.’

Thinking about Nangong Xiyu’s guarded stance, an unnamed anger flared within her. Despite being the child’s biological grandmother, she was treated as if she would harm her future grandchild at any moment.

Initially, she and Huangfu Jingzhang had planned to deal with the child in Li

Yiran’s belly for Huangfu Ruixiangs sake. However, with time passing, Li Yiran’s belly growing larger, they couldn’t bring themselves to harm their future grandchild.

“What?” Huangfu Ruixiang furrowed his brows tightly, a touch of gloominess in his expression. “Didn’t 1 emphasize the importance of this matter? Why don’t you take it seriously?”

Zhong Yating now lived in a hotel, clamoring to meet his parents every day. If she saw Li Yiran, she might renege on her promises and conceal all the secrets she knew.

“Ruixiang, what’s wrong with you?” Zhongyu Liuying looked at him with a puzzled expression. “Why do I feel your return is strange this time? Moreover, didn’t you just become an inner sect disciple? Why did you suddenly come back? Did something happen?”

Huangfu Ruixiang didn’t know how to answer the barrage of questions. He didn’t know what to say.

Zhongyu Liuying couldn’t help but worry at his silence. She grabbed his hand, nervously asking, “Ruixiang, tell me the truth. What happened? I just feel that your return is very strange this time.”

After contemplating for a moment, Huangfu Ruixiang decided to confess the truth. “Mom, I didn’t come back alone this time. I brought someone with me my fiancée! ”

After much consideration, he decided to disclose the matter concerning Zhong Yating. Of course, he couldn’t reveal the transaction between him and Zhong Yating, so he could only put it this way.

“What?” Zhongyu Liuying almost thought she was hearing things, “What are you talking about? Fiancée?”

Suddenly hearing that her youngest son had brought back a fiancée, she was momentarily unable to comprehend. It had only been a little over a month since Ruixiang went to the Hidden World, and now he had brought back a fiancée. How could she not be shocked?

No wonder Ruixiang had been asking her to arrange things for Li Yiran. It was because of this reason.

Huangfu Ruixiang braced himself, nodded, and continued, “The situation is a bit complicated, and I can’t explain it clearly. Anyway, the conclusion is that I brought back a fiancée this time..”
