Translator:Dragon Boat TranslationEditor:Dragon Boat Translation

After leaving Ye Yikuns courtyard, Ye Lengan left the Ye family without seeing anyone else.

When Ye Hongxuan and Lian Mengzhu heard that Ye Lengan had left, they couldnt help but pause. Clearly, they hadnt expected Ye Lengan to make a rare visit to the Ye family only to leave without bidding them farewell.

Meanwhile, Ye Wanwan also received news from the servants about Ye Lengans departure from the Ye family.

Upon hearing this news, her brow couldnt help but furrow. Because when Ye Lengan left, she had a smile on her face.

She didnt know what had happened between Ye Lengan and her grandfather, but she knew that Ye Lengan must have been in good spirits when she left.

When Ye Lengan was in good spirits, her mood was inevitably affected.

Before she could dwell on it further, someone came to escort her to her grandfathers courtyard, saying that the old master wanted to see her immediately.

Upon hearing the servants words, Ye Wanwans heart skipped a beat, feeling a pang of guilt. She didnt know why her grandfather had summoned her shortly after Ye Lengans departure.

She wasnt sure if Ye Lengan had said anything detrimental to her. Or perhaps her grandfather had learned about her sending someone to investigate, prompting him to summon her for punishment.

Regardless of the reason, she was about to face an unfavorable situation.

With an anxious heart, Ye Wanwan arrived at Ye Yikuns courtyard. As she stepped into the study, she saw Ye Hongxuan and Lian Mengzhu inside.

Ye Yikun was seated behind his desk, his expression inscrutable, making it difficult to discern his emotions.

Ye Hongxuan and Lian Mengzhu, too, were summoned, and they appeared bewildered, unsure of what was transpiring.

Once inside the study, Ye Yikun raised his head to address the three individuals before him and began speaking slowly, Since everyone is present, I have an announcement to make. This matter concerns only the three of you, hence why Ive summoned you here.

Ye Yikuns words immediately put them on edge.

Hongxuan, Mengzhu, listen carefully. Ye Yikun gazed at them with a serious expression, saying, Starting today, only Ye Wanwan is your daughter. Ye Lengan has no connection with you.

The unexpected declaration left Ye Hongxuan and Lian Mengzhu visibly taken aback. Their expressions s.h.i.+fted upon hearing Ye Yikuns p.r.o.nouncement.

Father, Lian Mengzhu interjected anxiously, Has Lengan offended you in any way? Youre a forgiving person. Dont take it to heart. Shes still young, and well guide her properly in the future.

She was unsure of what happened between Ye Lengan and her father to prompt such a sudden decision! However, it also left her feeling uneasy. She knew her fathers decisions were not easily swayed.

Thats right, Father, Ye Hongxuan chimed in quickly, Dont hold it against Lengan. Ill make sure she apologizes to you.

Unlike Lian Mengzhu, he wasnt as optimistic. He knew his father well. Ye Lengan was still engaged to Huangfu Ruiling. Therefore, regardless of his fathers feelings towards Ye Lengan, he would want Ye Lengan to return to the Ye family to maintain ties with the Huangfu family.

It was because of this that his father intended to spread rumors. It was to provide Ye Lengan with an out while also exerting pressure on her.

However, now his father had firmly stated that Ye Lengan would no longer have any ties to the Ye family. It was evident that the conflict between his father and Ye Lengan was significant, perhaps irreparable.

On the other hand, Ye Wanwan wasnt as preoccupied. If circ.u.mstances were different, shed be tempted to laugh aloud to express her inner joy.

With Ye Lengan out of the picture, she would forever remain the Ye familys young lady. She no longer had to worry about Ye Lengan threatening her position.

However, she could sense that her parents wouldnt allow such a thing. Hence, no matter how elated she felt, she couldnt show it.

Thus, Ye Wanwan stood quietly to the side, refraining from expressing any opinions.

In reality, anything she said at this point would be futile. Thus, silence was her best option.

Ye Yikuns expression remained unchanged. After surveying Ye Hongxuan and Lian Mengzhu, he continued, Im not seeking your opinion but informing you of my decision.

Though his tone was mild, it carried an unmistakable air of finality.

But, Father Lian Mengzhu began anxiously, wanting to voice her concerns further

However, before she could continue, Ye Yikun cut her off.

No buts, Ye Yikun continued, If you have objections or still wish to acknowledge Ye Lengan as your daughter, youre free to leave the Ye family. Once youre no longer part of the Ye family, I wont interfere with your decisions.

Upon hearing Ye Yikuns stern words, Ye Hongxuan and Lian Mengzhu dared not say anything further, despite their reluctance.

They indeed wanted to acknowledge their biological daughter but were unwilling to leave the Ye family. Leaving would mean theyd lose everything.

Seeing Ye Hongxuan and Lian Mengzhus silence, Ye Yikun continued, Tomorrow, well issue a statement refuting the false rumors. Ye Lengan has no ties to the Ye family. We only have one young lady, and that is Ye Wanwan.

Ye Wanwan was ecstatic but kept her emotions in check.

Ye Hongxuan, resigned, could only agree.

Grandfather, what about Murong Xingrui? Ye Wanwan suddenly asked, I did inform him earlier, but now Ive changed my mind. How do I explain this?

Simple, Ye Yikun responded calmly. If Murong Xingrui asks, tell him the truth. Due to being abducted at a young age and being away from home for many years, she lacks any emotional attachment to her parents and refuses to return to the Ye family. Ye Lengans stance is firm, and you must respect her decision. Also Simply put, we dont wish to establish relations with the Huangfu family through such means, nor do we wish to take advantage of Ye Lengan.
