Just as Huangfu Jingzhang and the others were exchanging greetings with Murong Yanshu, Li San pushed Huangfu Ruiling in. Ye Lengan was beside him.
When the two sides met, the atmosphere suddenly seemed a bit awkward.
Clearly, they were one family, but they had come in two separate groups. Moreover, now that the two sides were standing together, there was a distinct feeling of separation, making it seem like they were not one family at all.
Murong Yanshu naturally felt the awkwardness in the atmosphere. She quickly went up to greet them, “Ruiling is here too!”
Although they were not familiar with each other, she was still the matriarch of the Nangong family. Naturally, she could not address Huangfu Ruiling as Young Master, so calling him by name was reasonable.
However, when she saw Huangfu Ruilings arrival today, she was really taken back. All along, Huangfu Ruiling had never attended any banquets, let alone bringing a female companion. It was also for this reason that the young master of the Huangfu family had always been very mysterious. Everyone only knew that he sat in a wheelchair and was exceptionally handsome, but very few had seen him in person. Under normal circumstances, the Huangfu family would be represented by the head of the family, Huangfu Jingzhang, and his wife, Zhongyu Liuying.
Of course, this did not affect Huangfu Ruilings popularity. Among the four major families, Huangfu Ruiling was the only young master who held the majority of the family’s real power. Although it was not clear for what reason he had always remained as the young master, it was evident that as long as he was willing, he could take the position of the family patriarch at any time.
Some people speculated whether it was because Huangfu Jingzhang was Huangfu Ruilings father, and he didn’t want to compete with his own father, which was why he had remained as the young master all this time.
However, given their distant relationship, it didn’t seem like they had a strong emotional bond. So, it was all just speculation, and no one could really understand the true reasons behind their dynamics.
“Mrs. Nangong.” Huangfu Ruiling nodded gently and then introduced, “This is Ye Lengan, my girlfriend.”
When these words were spoken, it was as if a small pebble had been dropped into a calm lake, immediately causing ripples to spread in all directions.
Originally, the fact that Huangfu Jingzhang and Huangfu Ruiling had come separately but met at the entrance had already attracted the attention of many people.
Many people at the banquet had already turned their attention to this situation, and there were also occasional glances from some prestigious young ladies. After all, there were quite a few outstanding young men present here. Nangong Xuyao was the young master of the Nangong family, and
Huangfu Ruiling was the young master who held most of the power in the Huangfu family. Even the least accomplished Huangfu Ruixiang was a direct descendant of the Huangfu family, the son of the current family head.
Regardless of which one, they were all excellent candidates for a marriage alliance. Especially these three, not only did they have prominent family backgrounds, but they were very handsome, and their abilities were also top-notch. Nangong Xuyao was now involved in the family business, and even Huangfu Ruixiang had entered the family business, not to mention Huangfu Ruiling.
Among these three, Huangfu Ruiling was the most highly regarded by the crowd. Despite being in a wheelchair, he had already established himself as someone in a position of great power.
Who would have thought that Huangfu Ruiling would announce in front of so many people that the girl beside him was his girlfriend! Although that girl was indeed stunningly beautiful, she did not look like a daughter from a prestigious family like them.
One had to know that female companions and girlfriends were completely different concepts. When a girl appeared beside Nangong Xuyao, they were a little jealous, but they didn’t think much of her. After all, she was just a female companion who could be replaced at any time.
However, the girlfriend was different, especially now that she was introduced in front of so many people. Girlfriend, that meant they were in a stable relationship. They might even get married in the future.
At that moment, many young ladies’ hearts at the scene must have felt broken.
Even Murong Yanshu, who had come up to greet him, was stunned for a moment. However, as the matriarch of the Nangong family, she had seen many occasions. She immediately recovered and looked at Ye Lengan with a smile, saying, “Miss Ye, welcome to the banquet. I hope you have a wonderful time.”
Although Nangong Xuyao didn’t like Ye Lengan, he wouldn’t give Ye Lengan a hard time on such an occasion. After all, Huangfu Ruiling was standing beside
Ye Lengan..
