But now she thought about it, what exactly was their relationship?
Huangfu Ruiling seemed to have noticed Ye Leng’an’s gaze on him. He put down the laptop in his hand and turned to look at Ye Leng’an, asking, “What’s
“Huangfu Ruiling, uh…” Ye Lengan thought for a while and asked, “What are we now?”
Actually, she had asked this question on a whim. Of course, she did not think that Huangfu Ruiling had to answer her question. She just wanted to ask, whether he answered or not wasn’t important to her.
Hearing Ye Leng’an’s words, Huangfu Ruiling was stunned for a moment.

However, the corners of his mouth curled up into a meaningful smile. He did not answer her question directly. Instead, he asked, “What do you think our relationship is?”
Ye Lengan thought for a moment. Then, she rolled her eyes and smiled mischievously. “Father and daughter?”
Now her name was on Huangfu Ruilings household register. If Huangfu Ruiling really adopted her, then it seemed reasonable to say that they were father and daughter!
Of course, she was just joking. Moreover, she also wanted to see if his expression would change after hearing such a reply. She had known Huangfu Ruiling for so long, but she had never seen his expression change.
It seemed that for Huangfu Ruiling, everything was under his control.
“Is that so?” Huangfu Ruilings expression didn’t change. He looked deeply at Ye Lengan and then said in an ambiguous tone, “Do you want to be my daughter?”
This sudden question left her momentarily unsure of how to respond. She felt like she had put herself in a difficult situation as if she had picked up a stone to hit her own foot.
“Alright then!” Ye Lengan raised her hands in surrender. “l was just spouting nonsense. You don’t have to take it to heart.’
“Is that so?” Huangfu Ruiling suddenly reached out and touched Ye Leng’an’s hair. “But what should I do? I’ve already taken it to heart. Didn’t you just ask me what kind of relationship we have now? Now, it’s my turn. What kind of relationship do you think we should have?”
His sudden intimate act caused Ye Leng’an’s breathing to hitch. She stared blankly at Huangfu Ruilings hand resting on her hair and caressing it. It was as if he was treating his closest lover.
Lover?
When she thought of this word, her heart couldn’t help but beat faster.
Although she had a crush on Li Deze in her first life, in reality, it was just a habit, an illusion. She had never really tried to like someone, so she was not sure if that was how she felt about Huangfu Ruiling.
Therefore, for a moment, she did not answer Huangfu Ruiling’s question immediately but chose to remain silent. She would not make any decision hastily before she thought it through. It would not only be disrespectful to Huangfu Ruiling but also to herself.
She was not a fool. In the past, she did not have the chance to think about it, so she did not feel that Huangfu Ruiling was special to her at all.
However, today, as she suddenly recalled their interactions and looked back on their time together, she realized that even if she had been slow to catch on, she could still sense Huangfu Ruilin!s special feelings toward her.
At this moment, she was very clear about how Huangfu Ruiling felt about her.
In other words, she could feel that Huangfu Ruiling liked her.
However, she had yet to figure out her own feelings, so she would not respond for the time being. She was still very cautious when it came to relationships.
Facing Ye Leng’an’s silence, Huangfu Ruilin didn’t press further. He understood that even if he continued to inquire now, he wouldn’t get any answers. Moreover, if he pushed too hard, he might even frighten her away.
Moreover, although Ye Lengan hadn’t thought it through yet, he could feel that she was not completely devoid of feelings for him. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have relied on him, and she wouldn’t have been so relaxed around him..
