Flattering remarks flowed incessantly from Nangong Riming’s mouth, his obsequious demeanor suggesting that Huangfu Ruiling was his benefactor.

Ye Xiyuan, standing beside Nangong Riming, had turned pale. Nangong Riming’s behavior made her feel utterly ashamed in front of Ye Leng’an.

Huangfu Ruiling merely glanced at Nangong Riming before retracting his gaze, his tone cool as he said, “You have disrupted us.”

This simple statement brought Nangong Riming’s chatter to an abrupt halt. He stood there awkwardly, a hint of bewilderment on his face. However, he quickly recovered, displaying no trace of discomfort.

“Master Huangfu, I mean no harm. I merely wished to extend greetings,” Nangong Riming smiled and explained. “My father attended your engagement banquet. He is the Second Master of the Nangong family.”

Huangfu Ruiling remained unmoved, not even acknowledging Nangong Riming’s presence

Nangong Riming felt no awkwardness, but Ye Xiyuan, by his side, felt deeply embarrassed. She felt like a clown being ridiculed by everyone.

“Riming, let’s return to our seats,” Ye Xiyuan couldn’t help but plead, tugging at Nangong Riming’s hand. “Let’s not intrude any further.”

Nangong Riming brushed off Ye Xiyuan’s hand impatiently, his face showing irritation. “If you want to go back, go alone. Don’t hinder me here.”

Previously, he had been quite satisfied with Ye Xiyuan. Despite coming from a modest family, she handled herself with grace and possessed good looks. Moreover, there were deeper reasons why he agreed to their engagement.

However, he hadn’t anticipated her lack of tact. Today was a rare opportunity to meet the head of the Huangfu family, and he intended to seize it. Yet, Ye Xiyuan wanted to pull him away.

Nangong Riming’s rebuke felt like a slap in the face.

As Ye Leng’an sat there like a princess, basking in the favor of the Huangfu family head, she was forced to stand next to the overweight and unattractive Nangong Riming, desperately trying to please him. The stark contrast left her feeling utterly humiliated.

Unable to bear it any longer, Ye Xiyuan turned and fled. At that moment, she cared for nothing else but avoiding further humiliation in front of Ye Leng’an.

Watching Ye Xiyuan’s departure, Nangong Riming couldn’t help but frown, a hint of dissatisfaction flashing in his eyes. However, he quickly averted his gaze, focusing once more on Huangfu Ruiling and Ye Leng’an.

Huangfu Ruiling didn’t spare Nangong Riming another glance, instructing Li San to dismiss him.

Throughout the encounter, Ye Leng’an remained silent, not even acknowledging Ye Xiyuan. Consequently, she remained unaware of Ye Xiyuan’s inner turmoil.

Soon after, Nangong Riming was escorted out. However, he persisted, repeatedly mentioning his name before leaving.

With tranquility restored, Ye Leng’an turned to Huangfu Ruiling with a smile. “We should have sat in the private room from the beginning, knowing this would happen!”

Although Huangfu Ruiling had booked a private room, she wanted to experience the atmosphere of the hall, like any ordinary couple.

“It’s nothing, just an unexpected occurrence.” Huangfu Ruiling shook his head. “Such tactless individuals are rare. Encountering one today was unexpected.”

Hearing this, Ye Leng’an couldn’t help but laugh. “Indeed, Nangong Riming is quite peculiar. Despite your expression saying it all, he still wouldn’t give up!”

Huangfu Ruiling didn’t deny it, merely raising an eyebrow without further comment. However, he seemed to remember something and spoke again. “The situation at the Ye family doesn’t seem promising.”

“The Ye family?” Ye Leng’an’s eyes lit up with understanding. “You mean Ye Xiyuan’s family?”

“Since Ye Xiyuan’s plagiarism incident came to light, the Ye family’s business has plummeted,” Huangfu Ruiling explained. “Moreover, when the Li family faced difficulties before, it seems the Ye family took advantage of the situation. Now that the Li family has recovered, they’ve begun retaliating.”

“They’ve recovered?” Ye Leng’an was surprised. “I didn’t expect that.”

Previously, with the falling out between Li Deze and Ye Xiyuan, it wasn’t surprising that the Li family knew about the Ye family’s actions. However, she hadn’t expected the Li family to bounce back from their dire situation.

Huangfu Ruiling nodded. “Hence, the Ye family is likely on the brink of collapse.”

“Didn’t Nangong Riming assist the Ye family?” Ye Leng’an raised an eyebrow, puzzled. “If Nangong Riming speaks up, the Ye family shouldn’t be in such dire straits!”

Moreover, Ye Xiyuan was already engaged to Nangong Riming.

“Nangong Riming’s status within the Nangong family isn’t high,” Huangfu Ruiling explained further. “Additionally, Sun Wan’er has been suppressing Nangong Riming lately.”

“Sun Wan’er must be pregnant!” Ye Leng’an’s eyes lit up with understanding. “She’s doing this to remove obstacles for her future child!”

If everything had gone smoothly, Sun Wan’er should be pregnant by now. Though the pregnancy was still early, it could be detected. Hence, her current suppression of Nangong Riming was understandable.

However, it hadn’t been three months yet, so Sun Wan’er probably wouldn’t announce it just yet. Otherwise, Nangong Riming wouldn’t be so composed now.

“Perhaps.” Huangfu Ruiling nodded. “However, regardless of the process, the outcome is that the Ye family is on the verge of collapse.”

Ye Leng’an’s lips twitched. “Indeed, the world is unpredictable. In my previous life, the Ye family was prosperous. I never imagined they’d meet this fate in this life.”

Observing her expression, Huangfu Ruiling raised an eyebrow. “Are you… feeling sympathetic?”

“Of course not!” Ye Leng’an rolled her eyes. “I settled the score with the Ye family long ago. Their affairs have nothing to do with me. Hearing about it suddenly just made me feel a bit melancholic.”

She was well aware that her grudge was with Ye Xiyuan, not the Ye family. Hence, her only target for vengeance was Ye Xiyuan.
