Translator:Dragon Boat TranslationEditor:Dragon Boat Translation
Upon hearing Ye Xiyuans words, Ye Lengan wasnt the least bit angry. Instead, she chuckled. My affairs are none of your concern. You should focus on yourself! Just because youve managed to rope in an illegitimate child of the Nangong family, do you really think highly of yourself?
Ye Lengan, let go of me. Ye Xiyuan struggled to free herself from her grasp. Im telling you, I wont let this go. If you dare to lay a hand on me, Ill make sure you pay for it.
Suit yourself! Ye Lengan nonchalantly replied. But I think you should remember, were in a school! For the safety of the students, there are cameras all over the place.
While speaking, she lifted her head, glancing at a nearby camera with a blinking red light.
Ye Lengans words darkened Ye Xiyuans expression even more. In her anger, she had forgotten about this detail.
Observing the disheartened Ye Xiyuan, Ye Lengan smirked. Ye Xiyuan, do you keep provoking me repeatedly because you think Im an easy target?
Ye Lengan, this is a public place. If you dare to harm me, you wont escape the consequences. Fear crept into Ye Xiyuans heart as she struggled to suppress the panic. She continued, And if you lay a finger on me, Nangong Riming wont spare you. Even the head of the Huangfu family wont be able to protect you.
Hehe, Ye Xiyuan, Im different from you. Ye Lengan smirked confidently. Youll always depend on others for protection, but I have the ability to protect myself. Im not afraid, not even of the entire Nangong family, let alone Nangong Riming.
With confidence radiating from her, Ye Lengan spoke. Witnessing this, Ye Xiyuan felt an intensifying mix of jealousy and resentment. She detested the self-a.s.sured manner Ye Lengan portrayed as if she had everything under control,an unattainable level of confidence she had never possessed. Throughout her life, she had been cautious, fearing that one wrong move would lead to losing everyones attention.
But what about Ye Lengan? She never sought approval, yet she thrived more than her. Just like in her past life, Ye Lengan was the same never competing for anything, yet ultimately taking away everything that belonged to her
Remembering her past, Ye Xiyuans eyes reddened, and she seemed to descend into madness. Ye Lengan, dont make it sound so righteous. The only reason you dare to boast here is because you seduced the head of the Huangfu family. Without his protection, do you truly believe you can contend with me? Dont be too pleased with yourself, Ye Lengan. Your luck wont last forever. When Master Huangfu grows tired of you, what pride will you have then?
Unaffected by Ye Xiyuans words, Ye Lengan retorted, Say whatever you want. But since you know Huangfu Ruiling stands behind me, why provoke me so recklessly? Tell me, what lesson should I teach you this time?
Exerting all her strength, Ye Xiyuan finally broke free from Ye Lengans restraint.
After freeing herself, Ye Xiyuan took several steps back. Feeling within what she considered a safe zone, she continued, Ye Lengan, Ill remember the slap you gave me today. You wont get away with this.
Ill be waiting. Ye Lengan smiled faintly. However, since you chose to provoke me today, its better to settle scores one by one.
What do you mean? Ye Xiyuan, with an increasingly ominous feeling, questioned, especially seeing Ye Lengans composed expression. Im telling you, if you dare to harm me and ruin my engagement with Nangong Riming, my fianc wont spare you. Then, lets see who can protect you.
Fianc, huh? Ye Lengan nodded, adding, Say it a few more times! Because how long this fianc can last is still unknown!
Ye Lengan, what are you planning? Ye Xiyuan grew more frantic. If you ruin my engagement with Nangong Riming, Ill kill you. I promise Ill kill you.
For her, the most crucial matter now was her engagement with Nangong Riming. It was her sole opportunity to connect with the Nangong family and the cornerstone for her survival in the Ye family.
Without the engagement, she would have nothing left. She didnt even know what kind of life awaited her.
Didnt you already guess what I want to do? Ye Lengan remained calm compared to Ye Xiyuans outbursts. As for wanting to kill me, havent you thought about it long ago? Even if I do nothing, Ill still be a thorn in your side. So why not take some action? Its more cost-effective, isnt it?
Ye Lengans words heightened Ye Xiyuans anxiety. She didnt know if Ye Lengan truly intended to ruin her engagement with Nangong Riming or if she was just making threats.
Youre just trying to scare me. You cant do it. Ye Xiyuan forced herself to sound composed, uncertain if she was trying to convince Ye Lengan or rea.s.sure herself. Even with Master Huangfu backing you, you cant meddle in the internal affairs of the Nangong family.
Then wait and see! Ye Lengan grinned. However, dont forget, you brought this upon yourself.
If Ye Xiyuan hadnt been persistently irritating her, she would have almost forgotten about this person.
Unfortunately, Ye Xiyuan was resilient. She would come to her periodically to a.s.sert her presence. In that case, Ye Lengan would make sure she remembered this lesson well.
After saying this, Ye Lengan turned around and left, not bothering to look at Ye Xiyuan again.
Left standing alone, Ye Xiyuan felt an unprecedented sense of panic. She tried to rea.s.sure herself that Ye Lengan was only trying to frighten her, that she couldnt actually do anything. However, even so, she couldnt shake off her unease.
After some thought, she promptly decided to seek out Nangong Riming. Regardless of the situation, as long as she held Nangong Rimings affection, she wouldnt have to worry about Ye Lengans schemes.
