Upon hearing such a clear directive to leave, Ye Wanwans expression soured. She chose to disregard Ye Lengan and turned her attention to Huangfu Ruiling.

Ruiling, she began, The Ye and Huangfu families have always had a good relations.h.i.+p. Yet, your girlfriend boasts so shamelessly. Is she trying to sabotage our families relations.h.i.+p?

Huangfu Ruiling furrowed his brows and cautioned, Dont use my name so casually. Miss Ye Wanwan, are you implying that you can represent the Ye family?

Faced with Huangfu Ruilings direct question, Ye Wanwan hesitated in response. Although her father was the current family head and she held a significant position in the family, she couldnt fully represent the Ye family.

Huangfu Ruilings statement felt like a stinging slap to her face.

Ruiling. Ye Wanwan attempted to salvage the conversation. With the Family Compet.i.tion about to start, cant we sit dovvn and discuss the matter?

While speaking, she shot a challenging look at Ye Lengan. The young woman from the mortal world couldnt comprehend the gravity of the situation. Even if she did understand, she had no way to partic.i.p.ate. This exemplified the stark contrast between Ye Wanwan and Ye Lengan. Their starting points were worlds apart.

Huangfu Ruiling raised his head, his gaze cool, as he remarked, Given that this is a family compet.i.tion, the Ye and Huangfu families are now in opposition. Do you genuinely believe theres anything left to discuss between us as adversaries?

This response left Ye Wanwans face flushed with anger.

Ye Lengan couldnt help but cover her mouth, stifling a laugh. Though she tried to conceal it, the office was small, and few individuals were present, making her restrained laughter conspicuously audible.

Ye Wanwans countenance had already deteriorated, and upon hearing Ye Lengans subdued laughter, it only grew worse. She shot Ye Lengan a gaze filled with murderous intent.

Hey, dont look at me like that. Ye Lengan quipped in response to the look, showing no fear. In fact, she found it amusing. didnt make that statement; I just laughed. I didnt offend you. You cant possibly think Im an easy target to tease, can you?

Are you mocking me? Ye Wanwan retorted through gritted teeth, her anger intensifying. As the Ye familys daughter, her willingness to marry Huangfu Ruiling was an act of courtesy. However, now that she had come in person, she was met with such treatment. Even a young woman from the mortal world dared to ridicule her.

This thought kindled Ye Wanwans anger, and without any warning, she extended her hand. A ball of flames flew towards Ye Lengan. As an alchemist, she possessed excellent control over fire. The flame on her body had been discovered by her father in a secret land within the Hidden World.

With her fathers a.s.sistance, she had managed to harness this spiritual fire. It had since fused with her, allowing her to manipulate it as she wished. The existence of this spiritual fire had facilitated her significant advancements in alchemy.

However, she didnt intend to harm Ye Lengan. She simply aimed to teach her a lesson. After all, the rules of the Hidden World were clear, and she didnt want to incur the wrath of the law enforcement team over a girl like Ye Lengan.

Huangfu Ruiling refrained from intervening, as he knew that this small flame posed no real threat to Ye Lengan. However, when he looked at Ye Wanwan, his gaze radiated a chilling intensity.

Witnessing Huangfu Ruilings inaction, Ye Wanwan felt a surge of relief. In her view, it seemed that Huangfu Ruiling didnt hold Ye Lengan in particularly high regard. Otherwise, he wouldnt have remained pa.s.sive in the face of Ye I ,engans nredicament..
