Chapter 799: Understanding the Current Situation

Translator:Dragon Boat TranslationEditor:Dragon Boat Translation

Father, Im not a child anymore. Getting married is something natural. Ye Wanwan was firm. Besides, Xingrui and I love each other. Wanting to be together forever is normal, isnt it?

While she appreciated her fathers concern, she wouldnt compromise on this matter. It was about her future, and she needed to plan it carefully.

Moreover, since her grandfather had brought it up at this time, it was more of an announcement than a discussion. She couldnt refuse, nor did she want to.

Wanwan, we need to think about this carefully. Lian Mengzhu expressed concern. Youre still young. Youre not at the age to talk about marriage. If Xingrui truly likes you, he wouldnt mind waiting. Why make things difficult for yourself?

Ye Wanwan remained silent, but her expression showed her determination.

Seeing Ye Wanwans resolve, Lian Mengzhu wanted to continue persuading her. However, before she could speak, she was interrupted.

Shut up. Ye Yikun raised his head, his cold gaze on Lian Mengzhu. Didnt I already say? Let Wanwan decide for herself. Do you not understand my words, or do you not respect me?

His words chilled Lian Mengzhu to the core. She felt cold all over, suppressing any trembling.

Father, Im sorry for my words, Lian Mengzhu apologized immediately. She had been too focused on Wanwans well-being and almost forgot that her father had initiated this conversation. Her attempts to persuade Wanwan were clearly opposing her fathers wishes. Given her recent actions, her fathers dissatisfaction was understandable. Continuing to oppose him could lead to dire consequences.

Ye Yikun snorted, then turned to Ye Wanwan with satisfaction. Since youve made your decision, find a way to resolve it soon. Xingruis affection may not last forever. Plan for yourself to avoid disappointment.

Understood, Grandfather. Ye Wanwan nodded.

She understood her grandfathers hint: take advantage of Xingruis current affection to expedite marriage. It was the most foolproof approach.

Ye Yikun was pleased with Ye Wanwans understanding. He glanced at Ye Hongxuan and Lian Mengzhu. Wanwan has a plan. As her parents, support her. Also, find time to deal with Ye Lengans situation! Shes your daughter. Surely you dont want her to never call you mom and dad?

His words pierced Ye Hongxuan and Lian Mengzhus hearts.

The next day, Huangfu Ruiling went to the enforcement team, while Ye Lengan stayed to refine pills.

The elders were delighted. Miss Ye had promised that the pills she refined would remain with the Huangfu family.

Although the Huangfu family had alchemists, none matched Miss Yes skill. Her high-grade pills with excellent effects were a significant a.s.set to the Huangfu family!

Ye Lengan spent the entire day in the alchemy room, not even taking breaks for meals. It wasnt until Huangfu Ruiling returned that she realized it was late.

Youre back!

Ye Lengan had just stored a bottle of pills when Huangfu Ruiling entered. After stowing the pills away, she approached Huangfu Ruiling. Everythings settled!

Glancing outside, she was surprised. Its so late already?

Seeing Ye Lengans appearance, Huangfu Ruiling frowned. Have you been in the alchemy room all day?

Sensing Huangfu Ruilings displeasure, Ye Lengan felt guilty but then regained confidence. Yes! There were times when I spent several days in a row there! As an alchemist, I naturally devote myself to refining pills. Forgetting time is normal!

Observing Ye Lengan, Huangfu Ruiling felt helpless. He reached out, patting her head, then sighed. Im just worried about you. Im not against your alchemy, but I want you to rest.

If Huangfu Ruiling had been firm, Ye Lengan would have exploded. But his softened tone reignited her guilt. She stammered, I didnt mean to. I was just too focused, thats why I lost track of time. I promise to be more careful next time.

Though Ye Lengan sounded confident, Huangfu Ruiling remained skeptical. However, he knew that being too strict would only upset her. So, he smiled and shook his head. Alright, I trust you.

Despite his words, he resolved to supervise Ye Lengans next session. If he couldnt, hed find someone who could. Neglecting ones health for too long would have consequences, no matter how robust the body was.

Ye Lengan nodded. Okay, I understand.

Moving closer, she took Huangfu Ruilings hand. I havent eaten all day. Even if Im not hungry, I want to eat. You must have been busy too. Lets eat together!

Huangfu Ruiling tapped Ye Lengans nose, smiling helplessly. I knew youd say that. I had food prepared when I returned. It should be in the courtyard now. Lets go!

Ye Lengan chuckled, then tiptoed to plant a kiss on Huangfu Ruilings cheek. Youre the best.
