Chapter 902: He Has a Fiancée

Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Hearing the name mentioned by Ye Leng’an, Huangfu Ruiling paused for a moment before responding, “Indeed, there is such a person. He himself isn’t particularly outstanding, but his father, Huangfu Ping, holds a notable position in the company.”

Ye Leng’an nodded, adding, “Huangfu Shaohua is dating a girl from our dormitory. I was just curious.”

However, she refrained from mentioning Zhou Cui’an’s words. Not out of kindness, but simply because they didn’t concern her. In her view, Zhou Cui’an was insignificant.

Huangfu Ruiling’s expression turned peculiar upon hearing Ye Leng’an’s words. He then asked, “Do you have a good relationship with that girl?”

“Why do you ask?” Ye Leng’an was taken aback by the question, blinking curiously. “Is there something wrong with Huangfu Shaohua?”

“If I recall correctly, he’s already engaged,” Huangfu Ruiling replied calmly. “His fiancée is the third daughter of the Xiao family.”

“The Xiao family?” Ye Leng’an pondered for a moment before questioning, “Are you referring to the Xiao family involved in diplomatic affairs?”

The Xiao family was known for its involvement in politics, particularly in diplomacy. Many diplomatic officials of this country hailed from the Xiao family. It was almost predetermined that the Xiao family’s offspring would join the Ministry of Foreign Affairs unless they proved exceptionally inept.

“Yes,” Huangfu Ruiling affirmed. “The third daughter of the Xiao family graduated last year. However, she didn’t pursue a diplomatic career. She’s a renowned painter. I’ve heard she’s held several art exhibitions. She’s considered a desirable wife candidate in the capital.”

Ye Leng’an was surprised. “So, Zhou Cui’an is a homewrecker! I wonder if she willingly became one or was made one.”

“Zhou Cui’an?” Huangfu Ruiling frowned. “Your roommate! If you’re close, remind her. If not, don’t bother.”

“I won’t bother.” Ye Leng’an shrugged nonchalantly. “Besides, Zhou Cui’an is quite vain. Regardless of whether Huangfu Shaohua has a fiancée or not, she won’t let go of this wealthy husband.”

Furthermore, if Zhou Cui’an truly didn’t know about Huangfu Shaohua’s engagement and someone told her, she wouldn’t believe it. She’d likely think it was fabricated out of jealousy.

As evening approached, Huangfu Ruiling and Ye Leng’an returned to the Huangfu family’s ancestral mansion.

Upon entering, they found members of the first and second branches already gathered in the living room.

Huangfu Jingzhang and Zhongyu Liuying wore inscrutable expressions. Huangfu Ruixiang and Zhong Yating sat to the side.

Zhong Yating still appeared pallid, as if recovering from a severe illness. She sat beside Huangfu Ruixiang, displaying utmost docility and dependence as if he were her everything.

Members of the second branch sat on the other side, with only Huangfu Jingxian and Nangong Xiyu present. Their son, Huangfu Ruihang, was absent, reportedly on a business trip abroad since the new year.

However, the most surprising presence was Li Yiran’s.

Though she sat somewhat apart from the others, her attendance was unexpected.

Without formality, Huangfu Ruiling pulled Ye Leng’an to the empty main seat and sat down. Leaning back on the sofa, he surveyed the assembly.

With Huangfu Ruiling silent, the others remained so as well. The atmosphere in the living room grew somber and peculiar.

After a while, Huangfu Ruiling’s gaze settled on Huangfu Ruixiang before he spoke directly, “Why did you ask me to come back today?”

His question immediately drew everyone’s attention to Huangfu Ruixiang.

Clearly, he was the orchestrator of this gathering, leaving everyone in suspense about his intentions.

Even Huangfu Jingzhang and Zhongyu Liuying were perplexed. They, too, wondered what their youngest son had in store. With everyone convened, even Huangfu Ruiling back, it seemed significant.

Yet, if it were truly crucial, why hadn’t Huangfu Ruixiang informed them as parents beforehand?

At Huangfu Ruiling’s inquiry, Huangfu Ruixiang glanced at Zhong Yating beside him and then at Li Yiran seated nearby, a hint of apology in his eyes.

Noticing his gaze, Li Yiran felt a foreboding sense.

While Zhongyu Liuying hadn’t summoned her, Huangfu Ruixiang had notified her.

Previously, Zhongyu Liuying had invited her to the Huangfu family’s gatherings to embarrass Zhong Yating. However, this time, it was Huangfu Ruixiang who had summoned her. This didn’t elicit joy but rather an odd feeling.

Having miscarried to save Huangfu Jingzhang, Zhong Yating had lost her chance at motherhood due to severe injuries. Under such circumstances, no one in the Huangfu family would want to humiliate her.

So, although resentful, Li Yiran had prepared herself mentally. She likely couldn’t openly appear in public as before.

Yet, Huangfu Ruixiang had personally invited her today and insisted she attend. She didn’t feel joy, only a faint dread, as if something had spiraled out of her control.

Taking a deep breath, Huangfu Ruixiang began, “I believe everyone already knows that Yating and I have no intention of divorcing. We plan to live together from now on.”

His announcement didn’t surprise anyone, not even Zhongyu Liuying.
