In the days that followed, Huangfu Ruiling took Ye Leng’an around the town, and they indulged in carefree play, oblivious to everything else.

During these days, Ye Leng’an encountered Murong Yumeng’s group several times. Each time, Murong Yumeng would nod in greeting, and Ye Leng’an would reciprocate naturally, without engaging in any unnecessary conversation. She simply bid farewell whenever Murong Yumeng attempted to engage her further.

Consequently, despite Murong Yumeng’s efforts to suppress her emotions, it was evident that each glance she cast at Ye Leng’an seemed to carry a hint of hostility.

The National Day holiday soon drew to a close. However, instead of returning to school, Ye Leng’an took leave. With Ye Yikun’s birthday approaching, she and Huangfu Ruiling returned to the Hidden World.

Upon seeing Ye Leng’an leaving the homestay, Murong Yumeng couldn’t help but wonder whether Ye Leng’an knew something that prompted her to maintain a distance from her.

However, Murong Yumeng never expected that her typically flawless acting would falter in front of Ye Leng’an.

During this period, she failed not only to uncover the identity of Ye Leng’an’s supposed fiancé but also to gather any information about Ye Leng’an herself.

While she hadn’t completely set her sights on Ye Leng’an’s fiancé, she couldn’t deny her attraction to him. His appearance and demeanor surpassed Zi Zhijie by far, sparking a sense of allure within her. If his social status indeed exceeded Zi Zhijie’s, she would undoubtedly consider replacing him.

Having grown up in the Murong family, she knew precisely what she desired. Especially in selecting her future husband, she aimed for nothing but the best. Only a partner with a high status could solidify her position in the family and earn her parents’ reliance.

Naturally, if the man turned out to be a facade, she wouldn’t hesitate to stick with Zi Zhijie. Hence, despite her feelings for the man, she maintained an outwardly composed demeanor, ensuring no one detected her true intentions.

As for Ye Leng’an, she posed no threat in Murong Yumeng’s eyes. Despite her captivating beauty, her background was a major setback. If the man’s status exceeded Zi Zhijie’s, he should understand what qualities his future partner should possess.

Though Murong Yumeng was undervalued within the Murong family, outsiders remained oblivious to her situation. Thus, she remained the esteemed Miss Murong in the eyes of others.

Murong Yumeng had already devised a plan. Since she couldn’t gather information here, she would find a way once she returned to school.

To her, Ye Leng’an was merely an inexperienced girl. As long as she continued to display friendliness, Ye Leng’an would realize the benefits of befriending her at school.

On the other hand, Ye Leng’an was unaware of Murong Yumeng’s audacious intentions. After leaving the homestay, they returned to the Hidden World.

However, they didn’t anticipate encountering Huangfu Ruixiang and Zhong Yating upon their return to the Huangfu family. It seemed that the two had just hurried back from the mortal world.

Seeing them, Ye Leng’an couldn’t help but be taken aback. Clearly, she hadn’t expected to encounter them at the entrance.

“Brother.” Huangfu Ruixiang greeted Huangfu Ruiling enthusiastically. “I didn’t expect you and Sister-in-law to return today! We should have traveled back together if we had known earlier.”

Traveling back with Huangfu Ruiling would have been much more convenient. After all, as the head of the Huangfu family, he could effortlessly navigate the Hidden World. Unlike him, who faced numerous procedural obstacles.

Initially, he had only heard that Huangfu Ruiling had accompanied Ye Leng’an on a vacation. He hadn’t expected them to return to the Hidden World!

Unlike Huangfu Ruixiang’s excitement, Huangfu Ruiling remained cold and unresponsive.

Observing Huangfu Ruixiang and Zhong Yating, Ye Leng’an couldn’t help but find their situation somewhat amusing.

Despite being surrounded by women, Huangfu Ruixiang didn’t seem to relish the attention. He appeared somewhat worn out, likely exhausted from juggling two women!

As for Zhong Yating, she didn’t exude the joy of a newlywed. Dark circles under her eyes were nearly impossible to conceal, despite the makeup caked on her face. Yet, her eyes gleamed with a sense of satisfaction.

Returning to the Hidden World provided her with a strategic advantage. After all, Li Yiran couldn’t possibly infiltrate this realm. If she could win over Huangfu Ruixiang during this period and perhaps even bear his child, Li Yiran would be sidelined.

The aloofness of Huangfu Ruiling and Ye Leng’an left Huangfu Ruixiang’s cheerful demeanor frozen.

However, he wasn’t surprised by their reaction. Nevertheless, he couldn’t help but feel awkward. Standing before Huangfu Ruiling, he felt like a student awaiting a reprimand from the dean.

After an uncertain pause, Huangfu Ruiling’s icy voice finally pierced the silence. “Now that you’re back in the Hidden World, focus on your cultivation. Avoid unnecessary actions. The family assessment is imminent. If you fail, you’ll be sent back to the mortal world.”

Her cold expression and merciless words drained the color from Huangfu Ruixiang’s face, leaving him breathless.

Clearly lacking confidence in the impending family assessment, he knew Huangfu Ruiling wouldn’t offer him any shortcuts. Could it be that he would truly be banished back to the mortal world?
