Chapter 882: Disappearance of Bonds

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation  Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Protected by her parents, Ye Wanwan lowered her head, a smug smile playing on her lips. However, she remained vigilant; she was now the victim and couldn’t afford to give anyone leverage.

Huangfu Ruiling’s gaze lingered on Ye Leng’an. Only when he saw no signs of disappointment on her face did he finally relax. And perhaps it was just his imagination, but he felt that Ye Leng’an faced the situation not with sorrow, but with a hidden sense of joy.

Indeed, Ye Leng’an was currently immersed in a sense of joy. Just moments ago, when Ye Hongxuan and Lian Mengzhu stood before her, uttering those harsh words, she could sense that the faint bond between her and her parents had vanished completely.

Despite her reluctance to return to the Ye family or acknowledge her biological parents, the bond of blood was unbreakable, inherent from birth. It was this bond that had allowed her to recognize Ye Hongxuan and Lian Mengzhu as her biological parents.

However, with the escalating conflicts, the bond between her and her biological parents seemed to be fading. Yet, faint as it was, it still existed, recognized by the natural order.

But just now, she felt that the last trace of connection between them had disappeared entirely. In other words, even though there was a blood relationship between her, Ye Hongxuan, and Lian Mengzhu, there was no longer any familial bond. It was a kinship severed by the decree of the heavens.

Ye Leng’an’s gaze turned sharp as she looked up at Ye Hongxuan and Lian Mengzhu, her aura unmasked. “Master Ye, Mrs. Ye, if you wish to protect your daughter, it’s your business, not mine. But I am not her mother, and I have no obligation to indulge her. The one seeking justice in this matter is me, not her. We’ve reached this point, and if you cannot provide a reasonable explanation, then from now on, the Huangfu family and the Ye family will have no further dealings.”

Her words caused an uproar. Although Ye Leng’an had caused harm to Ye Wanwan, resolving it lightly wasn’t impossible, especially since the Ye family seemed willing to reconcile for reasons unknown. However, to everyone’s surprise, it was Ye Leng’an who refused to let it go.

Furthermore, the matter had escalated to involve two families. Mishandling it could lead to enmity between the Ye and Huangfu families.

Ye Hongxuan and Lian Mengzhu’s expressions turned sour. They hadn’t expected Ye Leng’an to speak this way.

But what startled them even more was Ye Leng’an’s undeniable presence, making them want to evade her. And as Ye Leng’an spoke, Huangfu Ruiling remained firmly by her side, showing implicit support. Ye Leng’an’s existence not only failed to bridge a connection between the Ye and Huangfu families but sowed enmity between them.

Meanwhile, Ye Wanwan, the other party involved, couldn’t help but feel panicked.

Though she was certain Ye Leng’an had no evidence, she couldn’t shake off her fear, especially with two families involved. If mishandled, it would anger her grandfather.

“Ye Leng’an, you’ve gone too far.” Murong Xingrui gritted his teeth. “Wanwan is already injured, and yet you’re here threatening her! There must be closure to this matter.”

As Murong Xingrui spoke, anger flashed in his eyes as he looked at Ye Leng’an. “Zhongyu Jiarui can testify that you injured Wanwan. You claim to seek justice. Why? Because you think Wanwan’s injuries aren’t serious enough for you?”

Ye Wanwan didn’t feel relieved hearing Murong Xingrui’s defense. Instead, she felt guilty, not daring to meet his eyes, afraid her deceit would be discovered.

“I didn’t harm her.” Ye Leng’an raised her head, a smirk playing on her lips. “This was all orchestrated by Ye Wanwan herself. She injured herself to frame me. However, you’re right about one thing – I do think her injuries aren’t severe enough. It’s simply unacceptable for her to remain conscious.”

“Ye Leng’an, you’ve crossed the line.” Ye Wanwan stepped forward from behind Ye Hongxuan and Lian Mengzhu, her face filled with grievance and anger. “I’ve decided not to pursue this matter, yet you’re still here, accusing me unjustly. Are you trying to drive me to my death?”

Tears streamed down her face uncontrollably.

A weeping beauty was always pitiable.

Though Ye Wanwan’s appearance couldn’t rival Ye Leng’an’s, she was still beautiful, especially with her face pale from injury. Her current stubbornness contrasted with her flowing tears.

Her appearance evoked sympathy from everyone present, who wanted to comfort her, especially when compared to Ye Leng’an’s formidable presence.

So, many couldn’t help but side with Ye Wanwan.

If not for Master Zhongyu’s intervention, Zhongyu Jiarui might have stepped forward to defend her best friend.

“You’re crying so pitifully.” Ye Leng’an sneered, her mockery evident. She spread her hands, her expression dripping with sarcasm. “But what can we do? I really do have evidence to prove this was all a staged act!”

Her words stunned everyone, their gazes shifting between Ye Leng’an and Ye Wanwan, unable to reach a conclusion.

However, the revelation of evidence in Ye Leng’an’s possession left them intrigued.

If not for Murong Xingrui’s support, Ye Wanwan might have collapsed already. Yet, she forced herself to remain composed, suppressing her urge to flee.

“Ye Leng’an, stop playing games,” she retorted. “You were the one who hurt me, and the truth cannot be changed.”
