Translator:Dragon Boat TranslationEditor:Dragon Boat Translation

Usually, although Nangong Xiyu and Zhongyu Liuying were at odds, she sided with Zhongyu Liuying on this matter. Sister-in-law, dont be angry first. Now that you know Zhong Yatings true colors, you definitely cant let her stay with Ruixiang. However, ultimately, Ruiling must make the decision. After all, he is the head of the Huangfu family. Beside

At this point, Nangong Xiyu glanced at Zhong Yating, who knelt on the ground, and continued, Zhong Yating is also an outer sect disciple of the Hidden Worlds Huangfu family. How she should be dealt with is also Ruilings decision.

So, Zhong Yating faced not only divorce from Huangfu Ruixiang but also punishment from the Huangfu family. After all, her actions could endanger Huangfu Ruixiangs life.

Its not unreasonable to take her life for what shes done. Zhongyu Liuyings gaze at Zhong Yating resembled that toward her enemies. Hmph, no matter what, I wont let her off.

Though unsure why Nangong Xiyu refrained from worsening the situation, Zhong Yating dared not speak up. She knew anything she said now would be wrong.

Li Yiran remained silent since Huangfu Jingzhang and Zhongyu Liuying came out, seated quietly beside Huangfu Ruixiang. She understood that speaking up now might make her a target. Even if she refrained from adding insult to injury, Zhong Yatings fate didnt look promising. So, she simply waited quietly for the outcome.

However, she couldnt resist casting a gloating glance at Zhong Yating.

Subsequently, silence fell over the living room. Everyones mood was heavy, but no one dared to break the silence.

Time dragged on, yet Huangfu Ruiling didnt appear.

Big brother, what did Ruiling say? Huangfu Jingxian couldnt help but ask. Its been an hour. Why hasnt he returned yet?

An hour had pa.s.sed since Huangfu Jingzhang left the study, yet Huangfu Ruiling hadnt shown up. Huangfu Jingxian doubted if Huangfu Ruiling had been informed.

Others shared Huangfu Jingxians doubts. Too much time had elapsed.

Huangfu Jingzhangs expression grew darker, his mood worse than others. Especially facing Huangfu Jingxians inquiry, he turned livid.

Having had no communication with Huangfu Ruiling, he couldnt even reach his son without intermediaries. If others found out, it would be embarra.s.sing.

Perhaps hes delayed, Zhongyu Liuying hastily explained. Lets wait a bit longer!

Though her mood resembled Huangfu Jingzhangs, Nangong Xiyu couldnt let them know she couldnt contact Huangfu Ruiling.

Huangfu Jingxian merely grumbled and didnt pursue it further.

They continued waiting for Huangfu Ruiling, with no other options. Ultimately, Huangfu Ruiling had to make the final decision.

While everyone sat still, Zhong Yating remained kneeling for so long that her leg went numb.

Despite her discomfort, she dared not move, aware she was now a criminal and any action would draw criticism.

The waiting was unbearable, especially with everyone doing nothing but waiting.

But no one spoke further.

After an unknown duration, just when they doubted Huangfu Ruilings arrival, a servant reported that the family heads car had entered the gate.

Learning Huangfu Ruiling had arrived, Huangfu Jingzhang and Zhongyu Liuying sighed in relief. They had doubts about whether Li San had conveyed their intentions to Huangfu Ruiling. They even worried he wouldnt come. If they waited all day without seeing him, they wouldnt know how to explain to Huangfu Jingxian and Nangong Xiyu.

Everyone awaited Huangfu Ruilings arrival, except Zhong Yating, whose expression worsened.

Huangfu Ruilings arrival signaled her trial.

Each persons mood differed. Only Li Yirans eyes glinted with excitement. She would finally witness Zhong Yatings downfall. After today, Zhong Yating wouldnt be Huangfu Ruixiangs wife anymore.

Huangfu Ruiling entered slowly under everyones gaze, accompanied by Ye Lengan.

Seeing Ye Lengan, no one was surprised. Their relations.h.i.+p was known, and Huangfu Ruiling had spent holidays with Ye Lengan. So, Ye Lengans presence was expected.

Though aware of this, Huangfu Jingzhang and Zhongyu Liuyings expressions werent pleasant. They disliked Ye Lengan and didnt want her to witness todays events. But they knew if they made her leave, Huangfu Ruiling would leave too.

So, they pretended not to care.
