Lian Zixin left the Ye family in a state of despair, caught off guard by Lian Mengzhu’s heart of stone.

Before her departure, she had hoped to meet Ye Wanwan. However, the response she received was Ye Wanwan’s unwillingness to see her. Helpless, she had no choice but to leave the Ye family.

As she stepped through the main gate of the Ye family, Lian Zixin couldn’t help but glance back.

Once, she was the cherished younger sister of the Ye family’s matriarch. Every time she visited the Ye family, she was treated as an esteemed guest and showered with flattery. But now, she was cast out like garbage, and the prospect of entering this luxurious mansion again seemed bleak.

Furthermore, the chances of encountering Ye Wanwan again were slim. However, she found solace in the fact that despite the exposed truth, Ye Wanwan wasn’t expelled from the Ye family. Nevertheless, she had permanently lost her daughter.

Though Ye Wanwan remained in the Ye family, the future treatment she would receive remained uncertain. Regardless, Lian Zixin lacked the ability to do anything for Ye Wanwan now. Additionally, challenges awaited her from the Yan family and her children; the storms ahead were unpredictable.

If asked if she regretted her actions, she certainly did. However, her regret wasn’t about swapping the two children; rather, it was about not directly eliminating the child back then.

Yet, everything had changed, and the irreversible facts dictated her present situation. Thus, she departed with a heart full of resentment and indignation.

Meanwhile, Ye Wanwan, recovering in her room, wasn’t faring well.

With a pale complexion, sunken eyes, and dry lips, she resembled an elderly person on the brink of death after losing her cultivation.

Previously, despite the exposure of the truth, she was content that her grandfather acknowledged her identity. Her engagement to the Murong family ensured her continued status as the Ye family’s young lady, even after Ye Leng’an crippled her cultivation.

However, the unfolding events exceeded her control. The revelation of Huangfu Ruiling as the head of the Huangfu family and Ye Leng’an’s impending engagement ceremony with him posed a severe threat. If her grandfather entertained the idea of recognizing Ye Leng’an, she would be in deep trouble.

Now bereft of advantages and cultivation, her alchemy skills faced severe setbacks. Her hopes hinged on her grandfather’s identity, and she felt like a convict awaiting sentencing.

Upon learning of Lian Zixin’s desire to meet her, Ye Wanwan promptly refused. She needed to establish clear boundaries to avoid unfavorable judgments from her parents and grandfather.

As for Ye Yikun, recovering in his courtyard, news of Huangfu Ruiling and Ye Leng’an’s engagement prompted him to spit out another mouthful of blood, inciting chaos once again.

Ye Leng’an, at the center of the rumors, remained the most composed individual.

Her engagement with Huangfu Ruiling was scheduled, with ceremonies in the Hidden World and the mortal world. Subsequently, she would enter university.

In the Hidden World, the Grand Elder and other elders organized the engagement ceremony. Huangfu Ruiling offered suggestions, while Ye Leng’an, the main protagonist, carried on as if nothing had happened.

Yet, Ye Leng’an felt that her leisurely life irked the heavens. They sent someone to disrupt her life – Zhong Yating.

Although Zhong Yating, an outer sect disciple, had no right to meet Ye Leng’an, her status as Huangfu Ruixiang’s fiancée and Huangfu Ruixiang being Huangfu Ruiling’s younger brother facilitated her entry.

Observing Zhong Yating’s attempts to curry favor, Ye Leng’an thought it was time to reorganize the Huangfu family. Some individuals needed a reminder to respect the head of the family.

Zhong Yating accompanied her with a smile, trying to get closer to Ye Leng’an while constantly flattering her. However, when she saw Ye Leng’an’s expressionless face, her heart couldn’t help but waver, completely unable to fathom what the other was thinking.

In reality, if it weren’t for the urgency of marrying Huangfu Ruixiang, she wouldn’t have rashly approached Ye Leng’an.

Originally, she intended to find Huangfu Ruiling. However, she was well aware that she might be expelled before even catching a glimpse of Huangfu Ruiling’s presence.

Hence, she had to resort to indirect methods, bribing a servant and claiming to be Huangfu Ruiling’s future sister-in-law. She pretended to come here to build a relationship with Ye Leng’an, managing to sneak her way in.

She knew that as long as Ye Leng’an could help her, she could quickly marry Huangfu Ruixiang. However, she genuinely couldn’t decipher what the other was thinking.
