Chapter 760: Unreliable Parents
Translator:Dragon Boat TranslationEditor:Dragon Boat Translation
If youre truly that dissatisfied, then just leave, Zhu Bixuan confronted Ling Weiwei bluntly. This isnt your home, you dont have the authority to dictate how we behave. If you feel were disturbing you, then find somewhere else to stay or switch dorms.
Her words lacked any courtesy, almost reaching the point of pointing fingers and hurling insults at Ling Weiwei.
You Ling Weiwei was so infuriated that she could barely articulate a response.
The atmosphere in the dormitory became tense, with Zhu Bixuan and Ling Weiwei seemingly on the brink of a confrontation. Zhou Cuian, watching from the sidelines, could only feel a sense of unease.
Tomorrow marks the first day of cla.s.ses. Ye Lengans calm voice interjected. Surely, you dont want to draw attention to yourselves. If you gain fame in this manner, youll be under scrutiny for the next few years.
Of course, fame here wasnt a favorable term.
Although Ye Lengan didnt attempt to persuade them, both Zhu Bixuan and Ling Weiwei immediately backed down.
Those who had been admitted to Capital University were not fools. They understood that causing trouble right at the beginning of the school year would leave a poor impression on the professors and administrators. This wouldnt bode well for their university experience in the coming years.
Ling Weiwei simmered with anger but refrained from further discussion, quietly beginning to pack her belongings.
As for Zhu Bixuan, though she continued conversing with Zhou Cuian, her tone was noticeably subdued.
For a moment, an eerie sense of harmony settled over the dormitory.
Satisfied, Ye Lengan resumed reading her ancient tome.
The following day, despite cla.s.ses having commenced, military training still occupied the schedule. Like all freshmen, they were to undergo a week of it.
Upon completing the second day of training, Ye Lengan returned to her dormitory, tidied up briefly, and prepared to leave.
Lengan, are you going to grab dinner? Seeing her about to depart, Zhu Bixuan immediately spoke up. Could you grab something for me too? Im completely exhausted and cant bear to go out.
After enduring a grueling day of military training, she had depleted all her energy. Originally intending to order takeout, she now hesitated at the thought of fetching it herself. Seeing Ye Lengan preparing to leave, she quickly called out to her.
Ling Weiwei also considered requesting a.s.sistance with dinner but hesitated. Over the past two days, she hadnt exchanged a word with anyone in the dormitory. Moreover, the person heading out was Ye Lengan, whom she envied most. She couldnt bring herself to ask.
Meanwhile, Zhou Cuian had never entertained the idea of soliciting Ye Lengans help for dinner. Unlike the others, her finances were limited, affording her only two steamed buns and pickled vegetables. She planned to purchase dinner herself from the cafeteria and return with a pot of hot water.
Im not going for food. Ye Lengan shook her head. I have a wedding banquet to attend tonight. Im about to leave.
Oh, I see! Zhu Bixuan expressed disappointment. I thought you were going to grab dinner! Ill order takeout later then.
Fetching food downstairs was much more convenient than trekking to the cafeteria.
However, Zhu Bixuan quickly regained her composure, her eyes lighting up as she turned to Ye Lengan. Your home is in the capital. Thats incredibly convenient. Not only can you return at any time, but you also have easy access to everything at home.
Ye Lengan smiled without reply, departing the dormitory directly.
Zhu Bixuan had merely made casual remarks and didnt expect Ye Lengan to respond. Thus, upon seeing her leave, Zhu Bixuan casually rolled over and resumed lounging on her bed.
After Ye Lengan exited the dormitory, she spotted Huangfu Ruilings car parked nearby. Jogging over, she opened the car door and climbed in.
Are we heading to get styled now? Ye Lengan inquired as they drove off. After todays military training, I merely freshened up and changed clothes.
No need for styling. Huangfu Ruiling shook his head. Todays wedding is quite low-key, with few attendees. Theres no need to fuss over appearance.
Indeed. Ye Lengan nodded in agreement. Plus, we dont even know how the wedding will unfold. Theres really no need for elaborate dressing. Oh, by the way, any updates from Li Yiran?
Today marked Huangfu Ruixiang and Zhong Yatings wedding. Li Yiran couldnt remain idle forever. Otherwise, after tonight, Huangfu Ruixiangs wife would be decided.
Li Yiran has already checked into the hotel, Huangfu Ruiling said nonchalantly. As for her plans, its hard to say.
Speaking of which, Huangfu Ruixiang is truly heartless! Ye Lengan couldnt help but sigh. If I recall correctly, he hasnt visited Li Yirans child since birth! I wonder if he even remembers he has a son.
Huangfu Ruixiangs neglect of Li Yiran was already heartless. Now, his indifference extended to his own son, reaching beyond heartlessness.
Indeed, he hasnt seen him. Huangfu Ruilings tone remained devoid of emotion. That child doesnt even have a name.
Ye Lengan couldnt suppress a heavy sigh. Tell me, did the misguided advice I gave Li Yiran lead to the suffering of an innocent life?
Without her intervention, Li Yiran wouldnt have conceived this child. Yet, given the parents unreliability, the childs prospects seemed bleak.
Hence, she couldnt help but wonder if her actions had been terribly misguided!
This isnt your fault. Huangfu Ruiling looked at Ye Lengan and shook his head. Huangfu Ruixiang and Li Yiran are unreliable. Thats their affair. As for the child, if not for you, he wouldnt exist. Dont worry. This child is also part of the Huangfu family. If Huangfu Ruixiang and Li Yiran persist in this manner as the child grows and becomes aware, Ill have someone take him away and ensure hes cared for. I wont let him be neglected.
Upon hearing Huangfu Ruilings plans, Ye Lengan breathed a sigh of relief and nodded. Thats rea.s.suring.
