Huangfu Ruiling and Ye Leng’an were oblivious to what the audience below thought. At this moment, all they saw in each other’s eyes was mutual existence.

After the ring exchange, Huangfu Ruiling leaned down and placed a devout kiss on Ye Leng’an’s forehead, treating her as if she were a rare treasure.

Onlookers had varied thoughts witnessing this scene. Given today’s engagement ceremony, it was evident that Ye Leng’an would be the future matriarch of the Huangfu family. Huangfu Ruiling’s solemn oath during the engagement ceremony suggested that there would be no changes in the future.

However, some couldn’t help feeling regretful. Having finally uncovered the mysterious face of the head of the Huangfu family, it happened during the other party’s engagement ceremony. Many unmarried young women, having experienced such an engagement ceremony, had essentially given up

Huangfu Ruiling was willing to make such a commitment to Ye Leng’an. How could that change? Thus, any actions against their union were simply making a mockery of themselves. Why subject oneself to such humiliation

Watching Ye Leng’an’s blissful expression, Lian Mengzhu couldn’t help but reach out to hold Ye Hongxuan by her side, asking softly, “Hongxuan, do you think there will come a day when we can be part of our daughter’s life and experience her joys and sorrows?”

Seeing Huangfu Ruiling’s deep affection for Ye Leng’an made her happy, but not being able to stand beside Ye Leng’an as her mother and offer blessings saddened her. She wondered if she would continue like this in the future and if she would ever hear Ye Leng’an call her “mother.”

“Yes.” Ye Hongxuan nodded, his words directed at Lian Mengzhu or perhaps himself. “One day, she will return to our side.”

Despite his assurance, he lacked confidence. Having met Ye Leng’an many times, he could sense her indifference and lack of expectations or feelings toward her parents, making their relationship only marginally better than that with strangers.

Unaware of Ye Hongxuan’s response, Lian Mengzhu pursed her lips and remained silent.

The engagement ceremony concluded, making way for the banquet.

Despite being Huangfu Ruiling and Ye Leng’an’s engagement ceremony, the attending guests seized the opportunity to expand their connections or foster relations between major families.

However, for unknown reasons, no one dared to approach Huangfu Ruiling and Ye Leng’an.

Even Lian Mengzhu, intending to offer a few words of congratulations, hesitated due to Huangfu Ruiling’s icy gaze and formidable aura.

Leaning against Huangfu Ruiling’s chest, Ye Leng’an smiled. “We are the stars tonight! Why hasn’t anyone come to congratulate us? Is it because you look too fierce?”

There was a hint of jest in her tone.

“Perhaps they are being considerate, not wanting to disturb us!” Huangfu Ruiling raised an eyebrow, confidently stating, “Moreover, don’t you enjoy spending quiet moments with me rather than socializing with those people?”

Ye Leng’an was momentarily surprised by Huangfu Ruiling’s words, then shook her head and continued, “I think staying like this is good.”

Truth be told, she wasn’t in the mood to deal with the guests. Quietly watching with Huangfu Ruiling was indeed preferable. Furthermore, the guests attending the engagement ceremony were not there to bless them but to socialize.

This aspect was quite similar between the Hidden World and the mortal world. Even though the Hidden World prioritized strength, many necessary social interactions were still indispensable. Just like fostering good relations between two families, it enabled resource sharing, bringing benefits to each respective family.

Huangfu Ruiling raised an eyebrow and said no more.

Ye Leng’an surveyed the banquet venue. Upon making eye contact with Lian Mengzhu, who seemed eager to approach, she calmly withdrew her gaze, avoiding any eye contact with her.

Seeing Ye Leng’an’s actions from a distance, Lian Mengzhu couldn’t help but feel heartbroken. However, realizing that Ye Leng’an didn’t want to witness her in such a state, she immediately concealed her sorrow, putting on a forced smile.

Seeing Lian Mengzhu yield, Ye Hongxuan felt a twinge of heartache but more of helplessness. He, too, was in a similar situation, unsure of what to do with Ye Leng’an.

Ye Leng’an was unaware of this couple’s thoughts. Moreover, after the engagement ceremony, they would return to the mortal world, reducing interactions with Ye Hongxuan and his wife.

Suddenly noticing Huangfu Ruixiang’s gloomy expression in the corner, Ye Leng’an frowned and asked, “Ling, after we return to the mortal world, will Huangfu Ruixiang continue staying here to cultivate?”

“It’s likely!” Huangfu Ruiling’s tone carried a hint of indifference as if he didn’t care about the matter. “He’s not a child; he can decide for himself.”

Ye Leng’an’s lips curled into an interested smile as she continued, “It seems like Zhong Yating really wants to ensnare Huangfu Ruixiang! Rumor has it she has been pestering him persistently. Do you think she knows that Huangfu Ruixiang already has a child?”

She knew about Zhong Yating’s situation because, until now, Zhong Yating hadn’t given up on involving her. However, since the last time, the Huangfu family had been reorganized, and Zhong Yating hadn’t even seen her face, forcing her to pester Huangfu Ruixiang constantly.

“Zhong Yating probably doesn’t know about the matters in the mortal world!” Huangfu Ruiling’s tone remained indifferent as if discussing matters unrelated to him. “Her affair with Huangfu Ruixiang has nothing to do with me.”

Ye Leng’an found it amusing. She shook her head and said, “I wonder what will happen between the two of them. No, it should be between the three of them!”

Although Li Yiran was in the mortal world, she had given birth to a son for Huangfu Ruixiang, holding a place in his heart. Zhong Yating was in the Hidden World, close to Huangfu Ruixiang, but seemingly without his favor. Thus, it was uncertain who would become Huangfu Ruixiang’s wife in the end!
