Full-Level Rich Daughter Makes a Strong Comeback

Chapter 979: Showing up at Her Doorstep

Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Ye Leng’an didn’t expect that, merely speaking in passing, Huangfu Ruixiang and Zhong Yating would show up at her doorstep the next day. It made her feel like she might have inadvertently jinxed it!

Originally, she planned to accompany Huangfu Ruiling to the competition venue. However, waking up late led her to decide against it. As a result, she slept until eleven in the morning.

After having brunch, she decided to skip the competition venue and go for a stroll instead. She had heard that there were many precious herbs and spiritual plants at the market, so she wanted to take a look while she had some free time.

However, before she could even step out, someone came to report that Huangfu Ruixiang and Zhong Yating were waiting outside the courtyard.

Ye Leng’an raised an eyebrow. Although she anticipated their visit, she didn’t expect it to be so soon. It seemed they were more eager than she imagined!

Since she wasn’t in a rush today, she might as well entertain them. She wanted to see what Huangfu Ruixiang and Zhong Yating were so impatient about.

With that in mind, she gestured for them to be brought in.

Led by the servant, Huangfu Ruixiang and Zhong Yating soon entered the main courtyard.

Upon entering, they were greeted by a strong spiritual energy. They could feel their pores opening up, absorbing the pure energy.

Huangfu Ruixiang’s insights were more profound than Zhong Yating’s, as his cultivation was higher. Moreover, the most crucial aspect was that he had received formal instruction from the teachers of the Huangfu family. Therefore, he knew more than Zhong Yating.

Previously, he had visited the main courtyard before. However, every time he came, he couldn’t help but sigh, and there was always an imperceptible twinge of jealousy in his heart.

Though he and Huangfu Ruiling were blood brothers and he even received more affection from their parents, their statuses were now worlds apart.

Huangfu Ruiling, as the head of the Huangfu family in both the Hidden World and the mortal world, wielded authority and possessed an unfathomable cultivation, standing at the pinnacle of power. Yet, Huangfu Ruixiang was nothing more than a pitiful disciple under Huangfu Ruiling’s command. In the Huangfu family, his position was even lower than that of an outsider like Ye Leng’an.

The more he thought about it, the more unsettled Huangfu Ruixiang felt. However, he quickly composed himself, knowing the purpose of their visit.

Meanwhile, Zhong Yating was oblivious to Huangfu Ruixiang’s unease. Her attention was solely on Ye Leng’an.

She admitted that she envied Ye Leng’an. However, she was also aware that she was not the only one who envied Ye Leng’an. Although she was a bit cunning and enjoyed manipulating situations, she considered herself content.

Nowadays, her life was vastly different from before. She understood that what she needed to do now was to live her life well.

Moreover, in her life now, there was still Li Yiran lurking around. So, instead of fixating on others’ good fortunes, she thought it better to figure out how to live her own life. At least, she had to find a way to drive away Li Yiran. Only then could her husband and child truly belong to her.

Ye Leng’an observed Huangfu Ruixiang and Zhong Yating with interest. She found Zhong Yating more perceptive than Huangfu Ruixiang, perhaps due to her experiences.

She even wondered if Huangfu Ruixiang was worthy of Zhong Yating.

Ye Leng’an gestured for them to sit down, which they did without objection. However, serving them tea was out of the question.

After sipping her tea, Ye Leng’an calmly asked, “What brings you here today?”

Huangfu Ruixiang felt somewhat displeased as he sensed the waves of spiritual energy emanating from the cup of spiritual tea in Ye Leng’an’s hand. After all, he felt that as Huangfu Ruiling’s brother, Ye Leng’an should have poured him a cup of tea, shouldn’t she?

“Ruixiang!” Zhong Yating, noticing Huangfu Ruixiang’s change, immediately reached out and tugged at his sleeve, then smiled and said, “Did you forget that we came here today just to see your sister-in-law?”

Huangfu Ruixiang snapped out of his reverie, his whole body nearly breaking out in a cold sweat. Especially when he raised his head and met the sharp gaze of Ye Leng’an, he couldn’t help but feel relieved that he hadn’t lost his composure just now.

Ye Leng’an slowly withdrew her gaze and then spoke lightly, “So, you came here today just to see me? In that case, you’ve seen me, and now you can leave.”

Such blunt dismissal made both Huangfu Ruixiang and Zhong Yating’s expressions turn sour. However, they didn’t dare to confront Ye Leng’an. After all, they came here today with a request. Therefore, they could only swallow their pride.

Taking a deep breath, Huangfu Ruixiang then forced a smile and looked at Ye Leng’an, saying, “Sister-in-law before we came to the Hidden World, Mother mentioned that we should come and visit you. In her heart, she still cares about you both. If you have time, you should also go back to visit them often.”

Hearing that, Ye Leng’an felt goosebumps almost rising on her skin. She was curious now about why Huangfu Ruixiang had come knocking. To add, he was even talking in such a high-sounding tone here.

Faced with Ye Leng’an’s ambiguous smile, Huangfu Ruixiang felt he couldn’t continue speaking.

“Enough with the pleasantries,” Ye Leng’an said sarcastically. “We know where we stand. If you have something to say, spit it out.”
