Chapter 223： There is something in the words

Chapter 223 There is something in the words

After a long time, it was Ye Hongxuan who spoke first, "Patriarch Huangfu, you invited us to lunch today, it shouldn't be just for eating!"

After hearing Ye Hongxuan's words, Huangfu Ruiling just glanced at him indifferently, and then said, "Master Ye, can it be possible, can't I simply treat you to a meal?"

After receiving such an answer, for a while, Ye Hongxuan couldn't figure out what the other party meant. From the very beginning, he didn't feel that the other party really wanted to invite him to dinner. However, after hearing Huangfu Ling's words now, plus, before that, they really didn't seem to have much intersection. Therefore, he really didn't know what the other party meant.

"Master Ye, Mrs. Ye, relax." Ye Leng'an smiled and said, "Actually, you don't have to think too much, just treat it as a meal between ordinary friends."

Ye Hongxuan and Lian Mengzhu looked at each other, and they both saw doubts in each other's eyes. However, since the other party has already said so, they naturally will not continue to ask.

Soon, the four of them started gossiping like ordinary friends. Of course, this does not include Huangfu Ruiling. He just sat there quietly, like an outsider, and didn't interrupt to say anything. However, his eyes fell on Ye Leng'an from the beginning to the end.

"Miss Ye is really hardworking!" Ye Leng'an smiled and praised, "The injury she suffered today is really serious! In the afternoon, she still insisted on continuing to participate in the competition. This kind of spirit is also worthy of admiration!"

"Oh, this child is just too strong." Speaking of this matter, Lian Mengzhu couldn't help showing a hint of melancholy on his face, and his tone also contained helplessness, "Although this competition is related to the development of the family, from the perspective of a mother, I still don't want to continue playing Wanwan. But, we can't persuade her at all."

"It seems that Patriarch Ye and Mrs. Ye really love Miss Ye very much!" Ye Leng'an nodded and sighed, "You are really good parents!"

When she spoke, her tone didn't change a bit, and it can even be said that her mood didn't change at all.

As a matter of fact, there was indeed no disturbance in her heart. After seeing Ye Hongxuan and Lian Mengzhu's love for the night, she didn't feel any sadness, let alone any jealousy. She seemed to be a bystander, watching everything, but had no intention of participating in it at all.

"Miss Ye, you don't know something." Lian Mengzhu said with a smile, "Wanwan is the only child of our husband and wife. I don't know if it's because of our health or some other reason. Since Wanwan was born, I have never been pregnant again. Originally, we wanted to give birth to a younger brother or sister for Wanwan, but we have never been able to do so."

"However, Wan Wan is a good child. We are already very happy to have this daughter."

Ye Hongxuan on the side didn't say anything, but his approving eyes already showed his attitude.

"Miss Ye is really lucky to have parents like you!" Ye Leng'an said with a smile, "We met your sister today, right? Your sister is really kind to Miss Ye! Seeing her nervous appearance, if you don't know, you might think she is Miss Ye's mother!"

After hearing Ye Leng'an's words, a sharp light flashed in Ye Hongxuan's eyes. Then, when he looked at Ye Leng'an, his eyes were full of inquiry and coldness.

Facing such gazes, Ye Leng'an didn't dodge or hide, and didn't even change his face extraneously.

Lian Mengzhu, on the other hand, did not think much after hearing such words, but nodded, and then said with a smile, "Zixin watched Wanwan grow up, and she really loves her niece. Many times, I feel that she cares more about Wanwan than I do!"

"However, Miss Ye doesn't know something. My younger sister Zixin once had a child who was about the same age as Wanwan. It's just that the child died not long after it was born. Because of this, she always treats Wanwan as her own daughter."

Originally, she would not mention these things in front of outsiders. I just don't know why, the Ye An'an in front of her always gave her a very familiar feeling, which made her say all these words unconsciously.

"So that's how it is!" Ye Leng'an nodded, "Then she really has a big heart! Her own children died young, yet she is so kind to other people's children."

There was something in these words, which made Ye Hongxuan involuntarily set his eyes on Ye Leng'an again.

Today Huangfu Ling suddenly invited them to lunch, he was already full of doubts. As for what Huangfu Ruiling said, that he simply invited them to lunch, he couldn't believe it. It's just that he really couldn't figure out what the other party was thinking.

And from the very beginning, every word Ye Anan said that night seemed to be just chatting. However, if you really think about it a little bit, you will be able to detect that every sentence seems to contain a deep meaning. He didn't know what the other party meant, but he had a vague feeling that those words were meant for them.

Moreover, he was more concerned about the surge of blood that he suddenly felt when Huangfu Ling greeted them for no reason on the first day in the square.

So far, he has not figured out what is going on. Of course, he also thought about asking Huangfu Ling directly, but he always had a feeling that the other party would not tell him. Therefore, he did not act rashly.

He looked at Huangfu Ling, then at Ye Leng'an, a thought flashed in his eyes.

Lian Mengzhu, on the other hand, didn't feel anything strange at all, and was still chatting and laughing with Ye An'an, "Yes! Because Zixin and I have a good relationship. I am much older than Zixin, so it can be said that Zixin was grown up by me. The relationship between our sisters is not so good, so she treats Wanwan as her own daughter."

On this side, because Ye Leng'an and Lian Mengzhu chatted from time to time, the atmosphere was pretty good.

On the contrary, it is the other side, which was supposed to be resting late at night. But when she saw Lian Zixin pushing the door and walking in, there was no trace of joy on her face, but a hint of impatience, "Why did you come here at this time?"

"Wanwan, are you okay?" In stark contrast to Yewan's indifferent attitude, Lian Zixin's face was full of concern. She came to the bed, sat down, and then reached out to stroke Yewan's head, "I heard that you were injured, so I came to see you. How are you feeling now? Are you feeling better?"

Yewan directly waved Lian Zixin's hand away, and said displeasedly, "Don't touch me. Talk as you say, don't touch me casually."

In the past, she still had a little tolerance for this aunt because of her mother's concern. However, since she knew the truth, every time she saw Lian Zixin, she couldn't restrain the disgust in her heart. Moreover, she hates Lian Zixin even more, since she has been switched, then never tell her the truth!

Now that she knows the truth, almost every day is like walking on eggshells, with fear. If she didn't know anything, she could live happily and enjoy all of this as a matter of course. Instead of worrying all the time that things will blow up and she will lose everything like she is now.

Yewan's obvious dislike made Lian Zixin feel a little sad, but she immediately calmed down and continued, "Wanwan, I'm just worried about you."

"I don't need your worries." Yewan looked at Lian Zixin, and then said, "It's enough for me to have my parents' worries. You have to remember that you are just my aunt. Please put yourself in the right place."

"I know," Lian Zixin said with a hint of bitterness in his tone, "Wan Wan, I never thought about what I would do. I just heard that you were injured and I was worried, so I came here to take a look."

"Then you've seen it now." Yewan directly issued an order to evict the guest, "I have nothing to do now, so you can go back."

"Wan Wan." Lian Zixin said eagerly, "Your injury is not serious. You should give up the competition in the afternoon!"

She was worried that she would definitely not be able to win if Ye Wan came to the stage like this. Moreover, the other party will not show mercy just because you are injured. At that time, I'm afraid Wanwan will suffer more serious injuries.

Since this is the case, it is better to abandon the game from the beginning. Wanwan suffered multiple injuries, which everyone could see, and no one would say anything because she abstained.

"Impossible." Ye Wan said without hesitation, "I have come to this point with great difficulty, and it is absolutely impossible to admit defeat easily. Also, my affairs have nothing to do with you, and you don't need to interfere with my decision here."

"I don't want to interfere with your affairs." Lian Zixin said with a hint of urgency, "I'm just worried about your body. No matter what, it's not as important as your body!"

Yewan turned his head, looked at Lian Zixin coldly, and continued, "I will not change what I have decided. Besides, it is not your turn to dictate to me here. Don't forget your identity, you are just my aunt, do you have the right?"

A few simple words made Lian Zixin's cheeks pale instantly, her lips trembled a little, and she was really speechless for a while.
