Translator:Dragon Boat TranslationEditor:Dragon Boat Translation

Ye Lengan raised her eyebrows but remained seated, not even glancing in Murong Yumengs direction as if she didnt recognize her at all.

Junior Sister Ye. Murong Yumeng stopped in front of Ye Lengan with a smile. What a coincidence! Didnt expect to run into you here.

Before Ye Lengan could respond, Huangfu Ruiling looked up with icy eyes towards Murong Yumeng. It was evident he disliked being interrupted during his private time with Ye Lengan.

His cold stare sent s.h.i.+vers down the spines of Murong Yumeng and her companion as they approached. They even felt the urge to flee under his gaze.

Despite the temptation to flee, Murong Yumeng suppressed it and tried to maintain her composure. Seems like weve disturbed you, right?

Yes. Unexpectedly, Ye Lengan nodded seriously. You have indeed disrupted us.

Murong Yumeng didnt antic.i.p.ate such a response from Ye Lengan. Typically, people would deny it in such situations to save face. But Ye Lengans candid reply was embarra.s.sing.

Zi Zhijies expression visibly darkened. Born into privilege, hed never experienced such treatment. Being openly humiliated like this was infuriating.

Even more irksome was Ye Lengans disregard. Zi Zhijie seized Murong Yumengs hand, eager to leave rather than endure the disdainful glances.

However, to Zi Zhijies surprise, Murong Yumeng showed no signs of leaving. Despite his efforts, she remained rooted, leaving him feeling powerless.

Seeing Ye Lengans att.i.tude, Xiao Lingling was angry, but Murong Yumeng signaled her to stay quiet. She reluctantly held back her frustration.

You sure love jokes. Murong Yumeng quickly adjusted her tone with a smile, trying to diffuse the tension. What a coincidence indeed! Although weve never met in school, Im sure weve heard of each other. Now, here we are, coincidentally holidaying in the same town. If this isnt fate, then what is?

Ye Lengan watched Murong Yumeng talk to herself quietly, blinking but saying nothing, as if watching a solo performance.

No matter how composed Murong Yumeng usually was, under Ye Lengans gaze, her smile froze, and her words stuck in her throat.

Yumeng, lets go! Zi Zhijies expression soured as he addressed Ye Lengan and Huangfu Ruiling, his eyes full of hostility. You might treat the other as a junior, but she doesnt acknowledge you as her senior. We dont need to endure this.

Exactly, Xiao Lingling added. Senior Sister Murong, people like them dont deserve our attention.

She resolved to expose Ye Lengans true nature once they returned to school. She wanted everyone to see who Ye Lengan really was, especially considering her standing compared to Murong Yumeng, and question her eligibility for the school belle compet.i.tion.

Zhijie, Lingling. Murong Yumeng looked conflicted but glanced at Ye Lengan and spoke firmly, Youve misunderstood. Junior Sister Ye is not like that.

No, thats exactly what I am, Ye Lengan interjected with a smile, though it didnt reach her eyes. So, Murong Yumeng, if you have nothing to do, stay away from me. Otherwise, youll make me angry, understood?

Murong Yumeng turned pale at Ye Lengans blunt words, struggling to maintain her facade.

I apologize for disturbing you sincerely, Murong Yumeng apologized. I just felt that our encounter at the homestay wasnt pleasant. So, when we coincidentally met here, I wanted to greet you and improve our relations.h.i.+p.

Murong Yumeng, perhaps only you believe those words! Ye Lengans smirk hinted at sarcasm. Only you know what youre truly thinking. Regardless, your thoughts are your own, and I wont interfere. Just dont approach me casually in the future. Cant you see my fianc and I want to enjoy our time together?

Murong Yumeng never expected Ye Lengan to repeatedly humiliate her. Even her usual facade began to crack under the pressure.

What shocked her most was discovering that the mysterious man was Ye Lengans fianc.

Yumeng, lets go!

As Zi Zhijie pulled Murong Yumeng away, he expected resistance, but she followed without protest.

Murong Yumeng wasnt naive; she sensed Ye Lengans rejection and knew she wouldnt gain anything by staying. Zi Zhijies actions provided her with a way out, so she took it

Seeing Murong Yumeng leave so easily surprised Ye Lengan. She expected a confrontation.

Huangfu Ruiling chuckled at Ye Lengans expression. Still attached, huh?
