what he was thinking now was that since the owner was ye lengan, it would be easy to resolve qiaomengs situation. they were all acquaintances, and even though they were a little unhappy at xiyuan’s birthday party, they had still spent so many years together. at that time, he would go to ye lengan and beg for mercy. he thought ye lengan would probably agree to let qiaomeng off!

“ye leng’an is not in the country right now,” ye xiyuan still spoke up. “she’s in paris now and probably hasn’t returned yet.”

although she didn’t want to say it, her father could still find out even if she didn’t. moreover, judging from ye leng’an’s behaviors, she didn’t seem to have plans to return home soon.

“xiyuan, how did you know?” lin wanqin was a little surprised. “did you meet her in paris?”

she had never heard ye xiyuan mention this before, so she was still surprised to suddenly hear this.

“yes.” ye xiyuan nodded. “didn’t i go to the auction with brother nangong? i met her there.’

“she went to the auction too?” ye li frowned. “did she go alone?”

what kind of status did ye lengan have? how could she get an invitation?

“she went with young master huangfu.”

when ye xiyuan said this, she didn’t look very happy, because she recalled what had happened at the auction. especially when she thought of how young master huangfu had unconditionally protected ye lengan, she couldn’t help feeling sour inside.

“she’s quite capable.” when lin wanqin spoke, her tone was full of sarcasm. “so young yet already getting close to such a big shot. i wonder what tricks she used in the dark.”

“why are you saying this?!” ye li warned, “don’t gossip about these things anymore, especially in front of outsiders. if you talk about ye lengan, that’s fine. but if you implicate young master huangfu, that won’t be good.”

therefore, it was better to be more cautious about some matters. they were naturally not afraid of ye lengan. however, not everyone could spread rumors about young master huangfu.

lin wanqin pursed her lips and didn’t say anything more.

“alright, i’ll think of a way to resolve this matter.” ye li looked at ye anyun

and warned, “so these days, just stay home and don’t go out anymore.

anyway, the new year is almost here, so just stay home and nurture yourself.”

ye anyun opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something. but seeing ye li’s gloomy expression, he still didn’t speak.

after all, no matter what, this matter was his fault.

as for li qiaomeng, it seemed unlikely for his father to help her. fortunately, they now knew ye lengan was the owner. when ye leng’an returned, he would think of a way to meet and ask her for help. after all, he and ye lengan had been siblings for so many years. if he asked for mercy, ye lengan would probably agree to let qiaomeng off!

time passed quickly. in the blink of an eye, it was new year’s eve.

ye lengan was still in the old castle in paris. she had no family now, so it didn’t matter where she spent the new year. since she was already in paris, she could just continue staying in paris as she pleased.

huangfu ruiling also didn’t return home but stayed in the castle to celebrate the new year with ye lengan.

ye lengan wasn’t surprised by this, because she had already discussed it with huangfu ruiling previously.

the most surprised that huangfu ruiling and ye lengan were spending the new year together in the castle was butler ford.

although he was a foreigner, he still understood chinese culture very well. therefore, he knew very well how important the new year was in china. he didn’t expect the young master to not return home for the holidays at a time like this.

however, even though he was surprised, he was a very competent butler. at this time, he naturally wouldn’t try to dissuade anything, and he didn’t have the right to do so anyway.

the only thing he could do was to properly arrange everything since the young master had chosen to spend the new year here and fulfill his duties as a butler.

therefore, early on new year’s eve morning, he instructed the servants in the castle to hurry and get everything ready. they must fill the entire castle with a festive new year atmosphere. especially since this was the first time the young master was spending new year in the castle. it might also be the last time. he had to make sure the arrangements were perfect. this was what a competent butler should do.

when ye lengan got up early in the morning and went downstairs, she saw the castle was almost completely red.

the carpet on the floor had been changed to a festive red. there were peach blossoms in the vases in the living room. not only that, there were even paper cuts pasted on the windows. in the living room, there were many small decorative red lanterns hung up. there was even an orange tree in the living room.

no matter how one looked at it, it was like a red ocean.

ye leng’an’s lips couldn’t help twitching when she saw the red that was filled with festive atmosphere. she looked at butler ford with an indescribable expression.

faced with ye lengan’s gaze, butler ford stood up even straighter. he took a step forward and respectfully said, “miss ye, breakfast is ready. today’s breakfast is dumplings. i wonder if you like them? or do you have other requests?”

“butler ford, your research is quite thorough!” ye lengan couldn’t help laughing. however, she still said, “but those dumplings should be for breakfast tomorrow! today should be new year’s eve dinner.”

“huh?” after hearing ye leng’an’s words, butler ford was a little stunned. then he immediately said, “alright, miss ye. thank you for correcting my mistake. i’ll have the kitchen…

“forget it!” before butler ford could finish, ye lengan stopped him. “since there are already dumplings, let’s just eat those. butler ford, you really don’t need to be so nervous. just act as usual.”

she really didn’t expect that butler ford would attach so much importance to the new year..
