Full-Level Rich Daughter Makes a Strong Comeback - Chapter 996

Chapter 996: An Invitation

Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Ye Wanwan sat on the bed, feeling utterly chilled. At this moment, she could hardly feel the pain from her injuries anymore. Her only sensations were panic and fear.

She was well aware that after this incident, she would definitely lose her position as the Ye family’s young lady.

Though her parents would still treat her as their daughter, she would no longer have her grandfather’s protection and resources. Without his support, her status and resources within the Ye family would plummet.

However, what terrified her most was the marriage alliance with the Murong family. With her cultivation destroyed, they might want to annul the marriage. After all, Murong Xingrui was the heir of the Murong family, and his wife couldn’t be useless.

If she had only lost the competition but retained her Golden Core Stage cultivation, the Murong family might not have considered canceling. But now that she was incapacitated, they would never allow Murong Xingrui to marry her.

Losing her engagement with Murong Xingrui and her status within the Ye family, what would she have left?

For a moment, Ye Wanwan felt utterly lost, unsure of her future path.

“Wanwan, what’s wrong?”

Entering the room, Lian Mengzhu saw the distressed Ye Wanwan sitting up. Before reacting to her being awake, she noticed Ye Wanwan’s anguish and called out worriedly.

Lian Mengzhu’s voice snapped Ye Wanwan from her thoughts.

Seeing that familiar concerned face, tears immediately welled in Ye Wanwan’s eyes as she said in a grieved, sad voice, “Mother, I…”

She hesitated, unsure what to say.

“Wanwan, how are you feeling now?” Lian Mengzhu looked at her with endless worry. “And why did you sit up? Your injuries are still severe, you need to keep resting.”

Ye Wanwan struggled to hold back tears before speaking, “Mother, I’m fine. I’m sorry for disgracing you.”

Lian Mengzhu shook her head, then spoke, “Wanwan, we only want you to be well. Why did you have to challenge Ye Leng’an this time? And now….”

She couldn’t continue. At this moment, she couldn’t bring herself to scold Ye Wanwan. However, strictly speaking, Ye Wanwan had brought this on herself, and no one else was to blame.

Though injured, Ye Wanwan wasn’t foolish. She understood the implication behind Lian Mengzhu’s words. Though aggrieved, she couldn’t express it. She knew her parents were already dissatisfied with her actions. What she needed now was to regain their favor quickly. While injured and still pitied, she had to seize this chance.

As for Ye Leng’an, she couldn’t act against her now. However, after being so miserably harmed, Ye Wanwan would never let her off easily.

Revenge was a dish best served cold. Ye Wanwan would make Ye Leng’an pay.

With these thoughts, a fierce light flashed in Ye Wanwan’s eyes, hidden from Lian Mengzhu.

The Elite Competition ended days ago, and Ye Leng’an’s life had been peaceful since.

With nothing urgent, she and Huangfu Ruiling planned to return to the mortal world. Her leave was expiring, and she needed to go back to school.

Huangfu Ruiling also handled matters during this period. After dealing with them, they planned to return together.

The incidents during the competition hadn’t been resolved. At this time, returning to the mortal world was safer than staying in the Hidden World.

However, before leaving, Ye Leng’an unexpectedly received an invitation.

Looking at the name and content, Ye Leng’an couldn’t help but smile with interest. Then she casually tossed it onto the table. “Ruiling, do you think Ye Yikun is crazy? He actually invited me to the Ye family. What makes him think I’d agree?”

When she received this invitation, she was quite surprised. Knowing it was from Ye Yikun made her even more astonished yet also amused.

Leaving other matters aside, given the current strained relationship between her and the Ye family, and their public declaration of Ye Wanwan as their only young lady, Ye Yikun had no reason to think she would accept just because of this.

Sitting opposite Ye Leng’an, Huangfu Ruiling frowned at the invitation. Then he spoke, “No matter Ye Yikun’s intentions, it doesn’t matter. What matters is he definitely harbors ill will. Moreover, the matters concerning the Ye family haven’t been fully investigated yet. Regardless, it’s best not to go for now.”

“I know.” Ye Leng’an laughed. “Do I look like such a fool? Ye Yikun clearly has malicious intentions. Why would I willingly walk into his trap?”

In the end, both ignored Ye Yikun’s invitation and continued preparing to return to the mortal world.

However, the next day, the Ye family sent another invitation.

After reading it, Ye Leng’an smiled sarcastically. “I didn’t expect Ye Yikun to be so persistent. It seems I have to make a trip after all. But I’m really curious, why does he keep coming to me?”

Huangfu Ruiling’s eyes flashed coldly. “I’ll accompany you there.”
