She wasn’t afraid of Zhongyu Liuying! Even though Zhongyu Liuying was Huangfu Ruilings biological mother, the true nature of their relationship was well-known within the Huangfu family. If there were any chance of reconciliation, they wouldn’t have remained at odds for so many years. Seeing Nangong Xiyu’s gloating expression, Zhongyu Liuying ground her teeth in intense hatred.
Just as the two conversed, Huangfu Ruiling once again appeared at the banquet, with Ye Lengan by his side.
The attention of everyone in the room was involuntarily drawn to them. Huangfu Ruiling, seated in a wheelchair, wore a perfectly tailored black suit, which accentuated his elegance. His fair complexion, sharp features, and deep, captivating eyes exuded an aura of nobility and grace. Even in a wheelchair, his charm couldn’t be concealed.
Ye Lengan, pushing the wheelchair, wore a flowing white evening gown. The silky gown gracefully enveloped her delicate figure, shimmering like a flowing river. The gown was adorned with small pearls, forming delicate floral patterns, lending an air of sophistication and regality. Her ethereal presence complemented Huangfu Ruilings elegance, and she was far from being overshadowed.
It could be said that when these two were together, they resembled a perfect couple, their beauty and elegance undeniable. Many of the women present couldn’t help but feel jealous.
After tonight’s event, Huangfu Ruiling would officially become the head of the Huangfu family. Looking around, he was arguably the youngest family head among the top families in the capital.
Despite his youth, Huangfu Ruiling held tremendous power. This meant that marrying him would immediately elevate one to the position of the Huangfu family’s matriarch. What a tempting prospect! Even Huangfu Ruilings disability and the need for a wheelchair couldn’t extinguish the fervor of their admiration.
In addition to his charisma, Huangfu Ruiling was unmatched in all other aspects. He was young, handsome, and wielded significant power. He was, in every sense, the ideal husband.
Yet, the person standing by his side was a relative unknown, not even hailing from a wealthy family, which only fueled the jealousy of the onlookers.
Sensing the fiery gazes of the elite young women in attendance, Ye Lengan spoke softly, “Ruiling, it seems you’re truly a popular candidate for an ideal husband! Look at how many people are eyeing my spot in this gathering. If glares could truly kill, I’d probably have been torn to shreds long ago!’
“Don’t speak nonsense,” Huangfu Ruiling said with a slight frown upon hearing her description. “Those people have nothing to do with me, and you needn’t be concerned. If you don’t like it, I can have them removed.”
“Please don’t,” Ye Lengan hastily intervened. “I’m just joking. On an occasion like this today, even if those women are envious and jealous, they can’t harm me. Moreover, I quite enjoy these envious glances. It means my taste is excellent, as I’ve found a top-notch man like you!’
Huangfu Ruiling couldn’t help but smile at her description of him.
The people below couldn’t hear Ye Lengan and Huangfu Ruilings conversation, but they could observe their expressions. When they saw the affectionate expression on Huangfu Ruilings face, many of the young ladies’ hearts shattered. Initially, they had entertained hopes, but the expressions exchanged between Huangfu Ruiling and Ye Lengan signaled the difficulty of infiltrating their relationship.
Huangfu Jingzhang noticed this, too. However, unlike others, his present sentiments were a mix of disdain and disillusionment.
He had already lost his position as family head due to Ye Leng’an’s presence. Hence, he naturally didn’t hold any goodwill towards Ye Lengan. However, he refrained from voicing his discontent now, as provoking the resentment of Huangfu Ruiling, this abominable offspring, could be detrimental.
Zhongyu Yiran was also present at the event.
She was clad in an elegant evening gown, which enhanced her already ethereal beauty. With a hint of pallor on her face, she exuded an even more pitiable charm, tempting several men.
These men were unaware of Zhongyu Yiran’s background but knew she was always by Mrs. Huangfu’s side and surnamed Zhongyu. This indicated that she likely belonged to the Zhongyu family, making her a suitable match for marriage. Moreover, her exquisite beauty made her even more alluring.
Zhongyu could sense the heated gazes of those men and didn’t feel bothered. Instead, she felt a sense of accomplishment.
From their eyes, she understood that she effortlessly commanded men’s attention.
However, when she saw the intimate interactions between Ye Lengan and Huangfu Ruiling, jealousy nearly compelled her to bite her silver teeth.
Nevertheless, she quickly regained her composure. She was well aware that her goal tonight wasn’t Huangfu Ruiling but Huangfu Ruixiang. Moreover, this opportunity was singular. If she let it slip, her prospects of marrying into the Huangfu family in the future were almost nonexistent.
Furthermore, a failed attempt could lead to irrevocable consequences, as Zhongyu Liuying would undoubtedly not spare her.
With these thoughts, her eyes gleamed with determination.
If there was one person who was the most shocked, it would undoubtedly be Zheng Anyang.
Originally, he wasn’t slated to attend this banquet. His elder brother, the current patriarch of the Zheng family, should have attended with his wife. In general, he had little interest in these types of events.
However, this time, his elder brother and sister-in-law were abroad and couldn’t make it back, so he had to attend.
He never expected to encounter his student at an event like this..
