Full-Level Rich Daughter Makes a Strong Comeback - Chapter 1020

Chapter 1020: Uninvited Guests

Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

The Murong and Ye families were gearing up for the wedding, but neither Murong Xingrui nor Ye Wanwan were thrilled about it.

Murong Xingrui couldn’t shake off the thought of marrying someone like Ye Wanwan, who had no cultivation or even worse, looked like she could drop dead any moment. How could she handle being the matriarch of the Murong family in the future?

Ye Wanwan wasn’t happy either. She didn’t want to leave the Ye family, especially since she relied on their medicinal herbs to stay alive. But once she married, she’d have to leave and move in with the Murongs. She didn’t even want to think about what would happen to her health then.

But now that the families were discussing the wedding, she couldn’t object anymore.

Meanwhile, the Murong and Ye families were hashing out the wedding details.

Over at the Huangfu family, they were gearing up for their yearly assessment. This test checked if the new disciples had put in the effort to improve their cultivation over the past year. Only those who passed could remain in the family; the rest would become outer sect disciples again.

Fortunately, the family assessment didn’t drag on this time. It wrapped up in just two days.

As Huangfu Ruiling and Ye Leng’an predicted, Huangfu Ruixiang didn’t pass the test this time.

Despite his recent dedication to cultivation, Huangfu Ruixiang’s talent wasn’t enough. Plus, he’d been distracted by some personal issues, neglecting his training. Even though he tried to catch up later, it wasn’t enough.

When he heard he was getting kicked out of the Huangfu family, Huangfu Ruixiang was shocked. He hadn’t expected Huangfu Ruiling to be so harsh.

He wanted to confront him, but as a low-ranking disciple, he had no chance to even see him, let alone argue. With no other options, he sadly left the Hidden World with Zhong Yating.

With the evil cultivator dealt with and the Murong-Ye wedding set, Huangfu Ruiling and Ye Leng’an decided it was time to return to the mortal world when they got the wedding invitation for Murong Xingrui and Ye Wanwan.

With everything settled in the Hidden World, it felt like a big transformation had taken place since Ye Yikun’s incident.

The Ye family had already stepped back from the top ten families, leaving only the top nine in the Hidden World. Marrying Ye Wanwan had tarnished the Murong family’s reputation. Meanwhile, the Zhongyu family’s influence had split between Master Zhongyu and Nangong Xuyao, weakening their strength despite still being among the top nine families.

After all they went through, and with Huangfu Ruiling’s identity as the leader of the Enforcement Team exposed, the Huangfu family grew stronger, eventually becoming the top of the nine major families.

When Huangfu Ruiling and Ye Leng’an returned to the mortal world, they were surprised to find unexpected visitors guarding their villa’s entrance.

“Why are you here?” Huangfu Ruiling’s gaze fell on the group in front of him, his expression unwavering. His voice was chilly. “Who gave you permission to come here?”

The unexpected visitors were none other than Huangfu Jingzhang and Zhongyu Liuying, accompanied by Huangfu Ruixiang. They stood outside the villa as if awaiting their return.

However, at the sound of Huangfu Ruiling’s indifferent tone, the trio couldn’t help but freeze. Huangfu Ruixiang, in particular, flushed red with embarrassment.

“Why can’t we come here?” Huangfu Jingzhang retorted, unperturbed by Huangfu Ruiling’s demeanor. “You’re our son. Don’t we have the right to visit you?”

His question hung heavy in the air, casting a palpable awkwardness over the scene. Huangfu Ruiling looked at Huangfu Jingzhang with a cold stare, showing no emotion. It was as if he was addressing a stranger rather than his own family, his demeanor colder than usual.

“Now that you’ve seen it, you can leave,” Huangfu Ruiling said casually. “I won’t see you off.”

“You…” Huangfu Jingzhang was so enraged he felt like he might burst a blood vessel. “Huangfu Ruiling, you’re pushing it too far.”

Ignoring Huangfu Jingzhang, Huangfu Ruiling took Ye Leng’an’s hand and headed straight into the villa.

Fuming with anger at Huangfu Ruiling’s attitude, Huangfu Jingzhang was on the verge of losing his cool.

Seeing Huangfu Jingzhang’s boiling temper, Zhongyu Liuying hastily tugged at his sleeve, signaling him not to escalate the confrontation. They had ulterior motives for their visit today.

Recalling his purpose, Huangfu Jingzhang took a deep breath, swallowing his anger. He hurried towards the villa’s entrance, fearing that if he hesitated, Huangfu Ruiling might reject them outright—a possibility he genuinely believed in.

Following closely behind, Zhongyu Liuying and Huangfu Ruixiang were all too familiar with Huangfu Ruiling’s personality.

Just before Huangfu Ruiling shut the door, the three of them managed to slip inside.

Observing the unexpected guests, Ye Leng’an raised an eyebrow but said nothing.

Gathering in the living room, they found it empty, as Sister Li was still away on vacation. Huangfu Ruiling went straight to the kitchen.

Huangfu Jingzhang and the others were curious about his actions. After a while, they watched as Huangfu Ruiling emerged from the kitchen with two glasses of water.

But before they could reach for them, Huangfu Ruiling went to Ye Leng’an’s side, handing her one glass before taking a sip from the other.
