Chapter 904: It Has Nothing to Do With Me

Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

“No,” Zhongyu Liuying asserted firmly, “Whether it’s through adoption or inheritance, the child won’t carry Ruixiang’s bloodline. Isn’t this essentially raising someone else’s child? I absolutely oppose this.”

“I agree with Liuying,” Huangfu Jingzhang, who had been silent, chimed in. “Haohao is Ruixiang’s child. This is just a change of mothers. Besides, Haohao will be raised within the Huangfu family, and if Yiran wants to see the child, she can do so anytime.”

He, too, held traditional values and couldn’t fathom his son raising another’s child. Even if it were a distant relative’s child, he couldn’t approve. Moreover, Ruixiang already had a son, so why adopt someone else’s? Simply give Li Yiran’s child to Zhong Yating, and all would be well.

And ultimately, the child would still be raised by the Huangfu family. What difference would it make?

“But this is completely different!” Li Yiran couldn’t help but defend herself. “Haohao is my child. How can I accept my child calling another woman ‘Mom’?”

“It’s not just any other woman. She’s Ruixiang’s wife.”

Observing Li Yiran’s agitation, Zhongyu Liuying, though displeased, patiently continued, “Furthermore, this is also beneficial for Haohao. When Haohao becomes the child of Ruixiang and Yating, he’ll be a legitimate heir, and his name will appear on the family tree.”

Although Huangfu Jingxian and Nangong Xiyu felt uneasy about the situation, ultimately, Zhong Yating’s miscarriage and subsequent infertility were due to saving Huangfu Jingzhang. In the end, this was a debt owed to Zhong Yating by the Huangfu family.

Therefore, Huangfu Ruixiang’s proposal seemed to be the best solution for now.

“Well…” Nangong Xiyu paused, then offered her persuasion. “Yiran, you don’t have to see this in such a negative light. Ruixiang and Yating will eventually return to the Hidden World. The child will stay here at the ancestral mansion, and you can visit him whenever you want. In truth, there won’t be much change; it’s just a difference in titles.”

Unnoticed by most, Zhong Yating couldn’t help but smile smugly.

In reality, she didn’t care whether Li Yiran would agree. Perhaps, when Huangfu Ruixiang made the suggestion, her first thought wasn’t about having a child but about exacting revenge on Li Yiran.

If not for Li Yiran’s exposure, she wouldn’t have been forced to divorce. To capture Huangfu Ruixiang, she had taken a gamble. However, she didn’t anticipate miscarrying and losing her maternal rights.

Li Yiran’s actions led her to this plight, so she would make Li Yiran suffer the same fate. She wanted Li Yiran to lose her son and watch him call her rival mother every day.

She believed this revenge would be worse than death for Li Yiran.

Looking around at the others, Li Yiran’s face showed despair. Although no one knew Huangfu Ruixiang’s plan before, now that they knew, everyone sided with him and Zhong Yating, disregarding her feelings.

Was this merely a change in titles? If she relented, would her son cease to be hers?

Moreover, she might never have another child in the future.

And her son was her greatest asset, her lifeline in the Huangfu family. She would never give him up.

With this in mind, she turned to Ye Leng’an and asked, “Miss Ye, what’s your opinion? Do you agree?”

She didn’t know why she thought of Ye Leng’an. Perhaps it was because Ye Leng’an’s assistance ensured her child’s safe birth.

In an instant, all eyes were on Ye Leng’an.

Especially Huangfu Ruixiang and Zhong Yating, who were especially anxious.

Because they knew that if Ye Leng’an objected, their plan would fail.

Although Ye Leng’an was only Huangfu Ruiling’s fiancée, not yet married, she held a higher place in Huangfu Ruiling’s heart than his blood relatives.

Ye Leng’an, who had been quietly observing, was suddenly drawn into the situation and was baffled.

Without hesitation, she shrugged and said casually, “You can decide. It’s not my concern. Besides, my opinion doesn’t matter.”

Although she disdained Huangfu Ruixiang’s proposal, ultimately, it had nothing to do with her. There was no need for her interference, which would only make her disliked. Moreover, she didn’t think she had much of a relationship with Li Yiran to speak up for her now.

And she didn’t believe Li Yiran cared about this child. The reason for her anxiety was probably fear of losing an important bargaining chip!

Hearing this response, Huangfu Ruixiang and Zhong Yating breathed a sigh of relief.

As long as Ye Leng’an stayed out of it, that was the best outcome.

On the other hand, Li Yiran felt a heavy blow upon hearing Ye Leng’an’s reply. It was as if she had been betrayed.

“Miss Ye, how can you say that?” She looked at Ye Leng’an with grief and indignation. “This is my child! Why are you, like them, trying to take my child away?”

She was utterly mad!

Seeing Li Yiran’s expression, Ye Leng’an couldn’t help but find it amusing. “I’m not trying to take your child away! I just don’t want to get involved in your affairs. Can’t I even do that? Besides, this really has nothing to do with me!”
