Ye Leng’an listened absently as Zhong Yating kept on chattering. In reality, her mind was elsewhere, and not a single word registered.

Zhong Yating had almost talked herself hoarse, only to realize that the person in front of her seemed completely unresponsive. She cautiously looked at Ye Leng’an, pondering whether she should just be straightforward. Despite her continuous hints, it seemed like she didn’t grasp the implications.

Sensing the gaze from Zhong Yating, Ye Leng’an turned and looked at her, saying directly, “You’ve said so much today. What’s the purpose of your visit? Just speak up! There’s no need to keep beating around the bush; I don’t have the patience to go in circles with you.”

Hearing Ye Leng’an’s candid words, Zhong Yating’s face showed a hint of embarrassment. She hurriedly responded, “No, I just…”

“If there’s really nothing to say, then please leave!” Ye Leng’an straightforwardly issued an eviction order. “We’re not acquainted, and there’s not much to discuss.”

“Sister-in-law, I’m about to marry Ruixiang, and soon we’ll be family.” Despite feeling dissatisfied with Ye Leng’an’s behavior, Zhong Yating understood the principle that circumstances outweighed personal feelings. She continued with a forced smile, “We’ll be sisters-in-law; wouldn’t it be better to get to know each other sooner?”

Ye Leng’an found these pleasantries dull. “I doubt you understand the bond between the two brothers. Even if you marry Huangfu Ruixiang, our interactions won’t be substantial.”

In one sentence, Zhong Yating’s prepared words were stifled, unable to find an outlet.

“Zhong Yating, I’ll give you a chance.” Ye Leng’an looked at her, continuing, “Just tell me your purpose. This chance is a one-time offer.”

Anxious after Ye Leng’an’s words, Zhong Yating didn’t hesitate and immediately said, “I want to marry Ruixiang. I hope you can help me.”

“What?” Ye Leng’an doubted her ears for a moment, wondering if she misheard. “Do you know what you’re saying?”

Was Zhong Yating expecting her to act like Huangfu Ruixiang’s mother? Huangfu Ruixiang’s marriage had nothing to do with her. Was there something wrong with her head? Speaking about such matters to her was pointless!

“Ruixiang and I want to get married soon, so we hope to have your and Big Brother’s approval.” Zhong Yating quickly continued, “Sister-in-law, you… shouldn’t have any objections, right?”

“When you get married is your business,” Ye Leng’an said indifferently. “Just like during the engagement. If you want to get married before us, I have no objections. Decide for yourselves.”

“Really? That’s great.” Zhong Yating’s eyes gleamed with joy. Then, as if facing a dilemma, she cautiously looked at Ye Leng’an before continuing, “Then, Sister-in-law, can you help inform Big Brother? After all, considering my status, it’s not appropriate for me to meet Big Brother directly.”

Wanting to settle the marriage today, even if Huangfu Ruixiang wanted to object, it would be futile. So, regardless, she had to convince Ye Leng’an to assist her today.

Speaking ambiguously now, Zhong Yating hoped Ye Leng’an would think Huangfu Ruixiang had already agreed to the marriage.

“This is a small matter.” Ye Leng’an looked at Zhong Yating with a half-smile. Ignoring her expectant gaze, she continued, “Just ask Ruixiang to talk to Ling. Even if the brothers are a bit estranged, it’s still more convenient for them to discuss than us!”

Zhong Yating’s eyes brightened at the first part of the sentence. However, the latter part brought her from heaven to hell. Her smile became somewhat unpleasant. “Wouldn’t this be too much trouble for Big Brother? Also, Ruixiang…”

“Marriage is your affair. How can only you talk about it?” Before Zhong Yating could finish, Ye Leng’an interrupted, “So, let Ruixiang speak for himself! A man should take responsibility!”

Unable to refute, Zhong Yating could only maintain a forced smile. “Then… I’ll let Ruixiang do it!”

Despite her smiling face, anxiety filled her heart. She realized her plan for the day had failed.

Ye Leng’an was unexpectedly unyielding. If Huangfu Ruixiang was willing to speak, why would she waste so much time here?

She didn’t know if Ye Leng’an genuinely felt it wasn’t appropriate for her, a woman, to discuss such matters, or if she saw through her intentions, prompting such a request.

“Do as you please.” Ye Leng’an nodded and calmly said, “If there’s nothing else, leave. I still have things to attend to; I won’t chat with you here.

It was a clear order to leave. If she couldn’t understand, she’d be a fool. Though reluctant to leave, Zhong Yating didn’t want to stay any longer. She stood up and bid farewell, “Then, I won’t disturb you anymore. If Sister-in-law wants to chat, you can find me anytime. We’ll be family soon, so there’s no need to be polite!”

Ye Leng’an waved her hand, not offering a reply.

Glancing around, Zhong Yating left reluctantly.

The disparity between where she lived and where Ye Leng’an resided was like heaven and earth.

As an outer sect disciple, she wouldn’t even qualify to enter the Huangfu family’s residence if she weren’t Huangfu Ruixiang’s fiancée. However, Ye Leng’an lived in the best courtyard, with attendants and the finest food and drinks.

Although she and Ye Leng’an were married to brothers, their treatment was vastly different. Despite envy and jealousy, she accepted the reality. Moreover, Huangfu Ruixiang was already the best match she could find.

Regardless, she had to marry Huangfu Ruixiang.

Watching Zhong Yating leave, Ye Leng’an couldn’t help but sigh.

A perfectly good day had been wasted.

However, judging from today, Zhong Yating wasn’t an easy opponent. Was Huangfu Ruixiang lucky or unlucky? Why were all the women he encountered like this? In the future, when Zhong Yating faced off against Li Yiran, who knew what kind of scene would unfold?
