The Nangong familys young lady? Ye Lengan gazed at Lin Wanqin and grinned, saying, You cant even grasp the situation, yet you dare to make grand claims here. Thats quite naive.

What do you mean? Lin Wanqin was taken aback, even suspicious. Ye Lengan, are you planning something? Let me tell you, todays banquet is hosted by the Nangong family. If anything goes awry, the Nangong family wont let you off.

Who told you this is a banquet organized by the Nangong family? Ye Lengan smiled and shook her head. We were invited by Mrs. Nangong, not the Nangong family. Dont get it twisted.

Isnt Mrs. Nangong representing the Nangong family? Upon hearing Ye

Lengans words, Lin Wanqin breathed a sigh of relief. Her gaze towards Ye Lengan carried a hint of smugness. l know youre just envious of Xiyuan, which is why youre nitpicking over such trivial matters.

Trivial matters? Ye Lengan raised an eyebrow and continued, If you consider it trivial, then so be it! Everyone attending this banquet today knows that its Mrs. Nangong accepting her G.o.ddaughter, with no ties to the

Nangong family. However, I believe that even if you can only a.s.sociate with Mrs. Nangong, its a great opportunity for all of you!

With that, Ye Lengan turned and left without hesitation.

Left behind, Lin Wanqin wore a perplexed expression. Despite her efforts to convince herself not to be influenced by Ye Lengans words, she couldnt shake the unease in her heart. Those words had indeed left a significant impact.

With these thoughts in mind, she promptly exited. At this point, she couldnt make sense of these matters on her own. Since that was the case, she decided to consult her husband and determine whether what Ye Lengan had said was true.

Upon hearing Lin Wanqins words, Ye Li couldnt help but furrow his brows. However, he wasnt well-informed about the situation.

Honey, do you think its true as Ye Lengan said? That Xiyuan has only been accepted as Mrs. Nangongs G.o.ddaughter and has no connection to the Nangong family? Lin Wanqin expressed her concerns. Isnt Mrs. Nangong deceiving us by doing this?

Dont jump to conclusions. Ye Li immediately scolded her upon hearing that. He quickly surveyed their surroundings and sighed in relief when he saw no one paying attention to them. Whether its under Nirs. Nangongs name or the Nangong familys name, its beneficial for Xiyuan.

Ye Li lowered his voice. Were on the Nangong familys turf. Be careful with your words. It wouldnt be good if someone overheard us.

Speaking so critically about Mrs. Nangong, if someone heard and relayed it to her, wouldnt that offend her?

He was well aware of the distinction between Mrs. Nangongs invitation and the Nangong familys invitation. However, the control was currently in Mrs. Nangongs hands, and they couldnt change anything. Moreover, regardless of the formality, it was a significant social advancement for Xiyuan.

Lin Wanqin was also startled and refrained from complaining further. She spoke with worry, l wonder if Xiyuan knows about this.

Whether Xiyuan knows or not wont change the facts, Ye Li replied. Besides, whether Xiyuan is Mrs. Nangongs G.o.ddaughter or the Nangong familys G.o.ddaughter, it doesnt matter. She has saved Mrs. Nangong and Young Master Nangongs lives, so they l,vont treat her unfairly.

Hearing Ye Lis rea.s.surance, Lin Wanqin breathed a sigh of relief.

On the other side, Ye Lengan returned to Huangfu Ruilings side.

Did something happen? Huangfu Ruiling raised an eyebrow as he looked at

Ye Lengan, inquiring, Its been quite a while!

l ran into someone I know and had a brief conversation, Ye Lengan said.

But it wasnt exactly pleasant.

Huangfu Ruiling chose not to delve further into the matter.

Just then, Nangong Xuyao suddenly approached and, with a hint of hesitation on his face, looked at Huangfu Ruiling.. Eventually, he mustered the courage to step forward and said, Young Master Huangfu, may I have a private word with you?
