Ye Leng’an raised her eyebrows but remained seated, not even glancing in Murong Yumeng’s direction as if she didn’t recognize her at all.

“Junior Sister Ye.” Murong Yumeng stopped in front of Ye Leng’an with a smile. “What a coincidence! Didn’t expect to run into you here.”

Before Ye Leng’an could respond, Huangfu Ruiling looked up with icy eyes towards Murong Yumeng. It was evident he disliked being interrupted during his private time with Ye Leng’an.

His cold stare sent shivers down the spines of Murong Yumeng and her companion as they approached. They even felt the urge to flee under his gaze.

Despite the temptation to flee, Murong Yumeng suppressed it and tried to maintain her composure. “Seems like we’ve disturbed you, right?”

“Yes.” Unexpectedly, Ye Leng’an nodded seriously. “You have indeed disrupted us.”

Murong Yumeng didn’t anticipate such a response from Ye Leng’an. Typically, people would deny it in such situations to save face. But Ye Leng’an’s candid reply was embarrassing.

Zi Zhijie’s expression visibly darkened. Born into privilege, he’d never experienced such treatment. Being openly humiliated like this was infuriating.

Even more irksome was Ye Leng’an’s disregard. Zi Zhijie seized Murong Yumeng’s hand, eager to leave rather than endure the disdainful glances.

However, to Zi Zhijie’s surprise, Murong Yumeng showed no signs of leaving. Despite his efforts, she remained rooted, leaving him feeling powerless.

Seeing Ye Leng’an’s attitude, Xiao Lingling was angry, but Murong Yumeng signaled her to stay quiet. She reluctantly held back her frustration.

“You sure love jokes.” Murong Yumeng quickly adjusted her tone with a smile, trying to diffuse the tension. “What a coincidence indeed! Although we’ve never met in school, I’m sure we’ve heard of each other. Now, here we are, coincidentally holidaying in the same town. If this isn’t fate, then what is?”

Ye Leng’an watched Murong Yumeng talk to herself quietly, blinking but saying nothing, as if watching a solo performance.

No matter how composed Murong Yumeng usually was, under Ye Leng’an’s gaze, her smile froze, and her words stuck in her throat.

“Yumeng, let’s go!” Zi Zhijie’s expression soured as he addressed Ye Leng’an and Huangfu Ruiling, his eyes full of hostility. “You might treat the other as a junior, but she doesn’t acknowledge you as her senior. We don’t need to endure this.”

“Exactly,” Xiao Lingling added. “Senior Sister Murong, people like them don’t deserve our attention.”

She resolved to expose Ye Leng’an’s true nature once they returned to school. She wanted everyone to see who Ye Leng’an really was, especially considering her standing compared to Murong Yumeng, and question her eligibility for the school belle competition.

“Zhijie, Lingling.” Murong Yumeng looked conflicted but glanced at Ye Leng’an and spoke firmly, “You’ve misunderstood. Junior Sister Ye is not like that.”

“No, that’s exactly what I am,” Ye Leng’an interjected with a smile, though it didn’t reach her eyes. “So, Murong Yumeng, if you have nothing to do, stay away from me. Otherwise, you’ll make me angry, understood?”

Murong Yumeng turned pale at Ye Leng’an’s blunt words, struggling to maintain her facade.

“I apologize for disturbing you sincerely,” Murong Yumeng apologized. “I just felt that our encounter at the homestay wasn’t pleasant. So, when we coincidentally met here, I wanted to greet you and improve our relationship.”

“Murong Yumeng, perhaps only you believe those words!” Ye Leng’an’s smirk hinted at sarcasm. “Only you know what you’re truly thinking. Regardless, your thoughts are your own, and I won’t interfere. Just don’t approach me casually in the future. Can’t you see my fiancé and I want to enjoy our time together?”

Murong Yumeng never expected Ye Leng’an to repeatedly humiliate her. Even her usual facade began to crack under the pressure.

What shocked her most was discovering that the mysterious man was Ye Leng’an’s fiancé.

“Yumeng, let’s go!”

As Zi Zhijie pulled Murong Yumeng away, he expected resistance, but she followed without protest.

Murong Yumeng wasn’t naive; she sensed Ye Leng’an’s rejection and knew she wouldn’t gain anything by staying. Zi Zhijie’s actions provided her with a way out, so she took it

Seeing Murong Yumeng leave so easily surprised Ye Leng’an. She expected a confrontation.

Huangfu Ruiling chuckled at Ye Leng’an’s expression. “Still attached, huh?”
