Chapter 523: A Farce 3

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation  Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Nangong Zilin, being a woman herself, naturally saw through all of Li Yiran!s tricks. A hint of disdain and scorn flashed in her eyes. She then turned her gaze directly to Li Yiran and calmly inquired, “Miss, the child inside your stomach, is it Ruixiangs?”

Although phrased as a question, it carried a tone of certainty. It was evident that despite the inquiry, she had already formed an answer in her mind. Upon hearing Nangong Zilin’s question, Li Yiran’s face displayed a mixture of inner turmoil. She lifted her head, glanced at Huangfu Ruixiang, perceived his nervousness, and eventually, she bit her lip, shook her head, and with a mournful expression, uttered, “No, this isn’t Brother Ruixiangs child.”

With this revelation, both Huangfu Ruixiang and Huangfu Jingzhang, along with Zhongyu Liuying, breathed a collective sigh of relief. Especially Huangfu Ruixiang, who, when he looked at Li Yiran again, harbored a tinge of guilt in his eyes.

Nangong Zilin’s eyes betrayed a hint of mockery, yet she chose not to press on, stating, “Is that so? Well, then it’s fine. I apologize for taking up your time.”

Did these people believe she was gullible? Would they think she’d fall for such a fabricated tale?

However, Huangfu Ruixiang truly disgusted her. He had already fathered a child with another woman, yet he shamelessly performed a facade of deep affection. Nangong Zilin, a lady of the Nangong family, had no reason to endure such humiliation. Since Huangfu Ruixiang was such a person, she decided to replace him.

With this in mind, Nangong Zilin couldn’t help but cast a glance in the direction of Huangfu Ruiling, her eyes revealing a trace of regret.

In reality, if Huangfu Ruiling wasn’t physically impaired, he would undoubtedly be her best choice. Regarding Ye Leng’an’s existence, she saw it as a non-issue. She was a magnanimous person and wouldn’t insist on being Huangfu Ruilings only wife. After marriage, she could turn a blind eye to any other woman in Huangfu Ruilings life.

Ye Leng’an naturally noticed the regret in Nangong Zilin’s eyes. She squinted her eyes, a glint of sharpness flashing within.

Nangong Zilin’s actions were swift and imperceptible to others. She turned her head, addressed Huangfu Ruixiang with a smile, and remarked, “1 feel that today is not an appropriate day for a visit, so I’ll head back first. As for your matters, I won’t be involved.”

Having said that, she turned around, picked up her bag from the sofa, and walked away without a backward glance.

Huangfu Ruixiang hadn’t anticipated the situation unfolding this way. He stood there, somewhat bewildered.

“Go and chase her.” Observing Huangfu Ruixiangs demeanor, Huangfu Jingzhang kicked him directly. “What are you still doing here? Do you not want this marriage anymore?”

After hearing Huangfu Jingzhangs words, Huangfu Ruixiang snapped out of his stupor and hastily went after Nangong Zilin.

Watching Huangfu Ruixiang chasing after her, Li Yiran remained in place, her eyes filled with desolation.

At this moment, Huangfu Jingzhang and Zhongyu Liuying were too

preoccupied to pay attention to Li Yiran. Their thoughts were entirely on Nangong Zilin, who had already left.

They could sense that due to today’s events, Nangong Zilin likely had formed an opinion of Ruixiang. They wondered if Ruixiang could salvage the situation.

Not long after, Huangfu Ruixiang returned alone, wearing a somewhat dejected expression. A single glance was enough to tell he hadn’t caught up with her.

“Li Yiran, you deceitful woman.” Zhongyu Liuying couldn’t contain her anger any longer. She delivered a resounding slap to Li Yiran’s face, exclaiming, “It’s all because of you. Are you trying to ruin Ruixiang?”

“No, Auntie, I truly didn’t know.” Stunned by this unexpected slap, Li Yiran covered her slapped cheek, her face bearing an innocent expression. “l just learned this news and was so happy that I wanted to share it with Brother Ruixiang. I genuinely didn’t know today was the day Brother Ruixiang brought his girlfriend back. If I had known, I wouldn’t have come here today. Please believe me.’

Turning her head, she looked at Huangfu Ruixiang, her eyes brimming with sincerity. “Brother Ruixiang, you believe me, right?”

Seeing Li Yiran in tears and thinking about the child in her belly, Huangfu Ruixiangs heart softened. He stepped forward, shielding Li Yiran, and looked at Zhongyu Liuying, saying, “Mom, I believe Yiran didn’t do it on purpose. Don’t make it hard for her..
