Chapter 899: Her Boyfriend

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation  Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Suddenly called out, Ye Leng’an was momentarily stunned. She never expected this matter to involve her. Raising an eyebrow, she didn’t respond, though the confusion was clear on her face.

Zhu Bixuan glanced between Ye Leng’an and Zhou Cui’an, a hint of gossip in her eyes. “Cui’an, what’s going on here? Don’t tell me Leng’an brought you to that banquet?”

Though she said that, it was meant as a mere joke. From their interactions last semester, she knew Ye Leng’an and Zhou Cui’an shared no deep bond – just pride at most. Under such circumstances, she couldn’t imagine Ye Leng’an having the leisure for that.

“No, that’s not it.” Zhou Cui’an shook her head, a sarcastic edge to her voice. “Because of Leng’an, I got to know Senior Sister Murong! You probably don’t know, but she introduced my winter job. She even brought me to a high society banquet. That’s where I met my current boyfriend. You see, all thanks to Leng’an!”

Realization dawned in Ye Leng’an’s eyes. She had a rough idea of what happened, though she didn’t expect Zhou Cui’an to get entangled with Murong Yumeng.

She just didn’t know Murong Yumeng’s true intentions and didn’t believe that woman performed good deeds every day.

“Why are you hanging around Murong Yumeng?” Zhu Bixuan couldn’t help but frown. “She…”

Before she could finish, Zhou Cui’an cut her off. “Senior Sister Murong is a good person who’s helped me a lot. Unlike some people who clearly could help but chose to watch me suffer instead.”

As she spoke, Zhou Cui’an shot Ye Leng’an a pointed look.

She hadn’t forgotten the mall incident. If not for Ye Leng’an’s refusal to help, she wouldn’t have been left in that humiliating situation. They were all roommates! Yet Ye Leng’an heartlessly abandoned her to face that ridicule alone.

Had Senior Sister Murong not intervened, Zhou Cui’an might’ve truly ended up at the police station, her plight made public knowledge. If that happened, she couldn’t possibly remain at this university.

Compared to Ye Leng’an’s inaction, Senior Sister Murong was a kind fairy.

Seeing Zhou Cui’an’s expression, Zhu Bixuan wanted to say more but was stopped by Ling Weiwei.

“Bixuan, don’t,” Ling Weiwei calmly interjected. “Cui’an’s not a child anymore. She has her own judgment. As outsiders, we shouldn’t advise her too much.”

Zhou Cui’an clearly wouldn’t listen to anyone else – she had convinced herself Murong Yumeng was good. If so, why bother playing the villain?

Understanding Ling Weiwei’s point, Zhu Bixuan finally chose to remain silent after glancing at Zhou Cui’an’s demeanor.

However, Zhou Cui’an clearly had no intention of dropping it. Eyeing the other three with a hint of smugness, she continued, “In a few days, when I have time, I’ll ask my boyfriend to treat you all to dinner! We can meet up then, so you’ll recognize him on the street. Oh, I haven’t even told you my boyfriend’s name! It’s Huangfu Shaohua, from the Huangfu family – one of the four major families of the capital.”

Upon hearing this, Zhu Bixuan and Ling Weiwei immediately looked at Zhou Cui’an, eyes wide with disbelief.

Although not capital natives, they’d heard of the four major families – not just the capital’s elite aristocracy, but among the entire nation’s nobility. One had to know Murong Yumeng’s fame at Capital University stemmed largely from her own Murong family belonging to that esteemed quartet.

Who could have imagined Zhou Cui’an’s boyfriend hailed from the Huangfu family? What insane luck was this?

Ye Leng’an didn’t outwardly react much, but hearing Huangfu Shaohua’s name did make her eyes flicker with surprise.

Seeing the shock on Zhu Bixuan and Ling Weiwei’s faces filled Zhou Cui’an with satisfaction.

All this time in the dorm, her family background paled in comparison to the others. For that reason alone, she always felt inferior to her three roommates.

But now, everything was different. She was Huangfu Shaohua’s girlfriend now, set to marry into the Huangfu family. By then, she would indisputably be the one living best. Perhaps the others might even come currying favor!

However, Ye Leng’an’s indifference still irked her.

“Leng’an, I hear you seem to have a fiancé too. Is that true?” Zhou Cui’an immediately turned her sights on Ye Leng’an, a smile playing on her lips. “Why don’t you bring him out together when the time comes? It’ll be good for everyone to get acquainted!”

She didn’t believe Ye Leng’an would willingly bring out her so-called fiancé. Just some rich old man, no doubt. If truly introduced, everyone would know she was a mere plaything for the wealthy elderly.

“Leng’an, you’re actually engaged?” Zhu Bixuan exclaimed in surprise. “How come you never mentioned it before?”

“Nothing worth mentioning,” Ye Leng’an said evenly. “We got engaged that summer after graduating high school. He keeps a low profile and doesn’t like meeting strangers.”

Seeing Ye Leng’an’s reluctance to elaborate, Zhu Bixuan laughed awkwardly, rubbing her nose before falling silent.

However, Zhou Cui’an clearly had no intention of letting it go. “I see! No wonder you can afford such a comfortable university life, Leng’an. Your fiancé’s family must be loaded to let you splurge like this.”

She believed that Ye Leng’an made it sound so pretty, but was obviously unwilling to introduce him! If he truly existed, why would Ye Leng’an hide him so?

Now Zhou Cui’an was even more convinced that Ye Leng’an’s supposed fiancé was definitely some shriveled old codger. Or perhaps afflicted by some condition.

Otherwise, why would Ye Leng’an be so averse to even mentioning him?

Not being fools, Zhu Bixuan and Ling Weiwei could sense the sarcasm in Zhou Cui’an’s words. Worriedly, they looked towards Ye Leng’an.
