Chapter 656: A Gift for Principal

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

After gradually calming his emotions, Huangfu Ruixiang began to contemplate what he should do next.

After today’s probing, he started to question whether his initial speculation was indeed incorrect. However, since his arrival at the Huangfu family, he hadn’t once encountered Huangfu Ruiling. Moreover, he hadn’t heard anyone within the family mention Huangfu Ruiling. The crucial point was that Huangfu Ruiling was conspicuously absent from the current Family Competition.

Earlier, during his attempt to probe, Ye Lengan displayed no signs whatsoever. If the other party hadn’t been prepared, then it meant his speculation was flawed.

Regardless of which possibility held true, the current circumstances were highly unfavorable for him. Moreover, if all his conjectures were off the mark, his actions today had undeniably left a negative impression on Ye An’an.

Ye An’an, being the master’s fiancée, could easily influence the master’s perception with a few words. Even if the master wasn’t acquainted with him, he would have formed a negative impression. What prospects could he have within the family?

Contemplating these thoughts, he couldn’t help but regret the rashness of his actions today. Had he known, he would have thoroughly investigated to confirm Huangfu Ruilings presence within the family before making any decisions.

However, now that things had turned out this way, he had no way to change this fact. Moving forward, he should continue to inquire within the family, checking whether Huangfu Ruiling was indeed in the main family. It was said that Huangfu Ruiling held a high position in the main family. Finding Huangfu Ruiling might still be a good thing for him.

Huangfu Ruixiangs appearance had no impact on Ye Lengan whatsoever. She still went out to enjoy herself, and when she encountered Huangfu Ruiling in the evening, she briefed him on the situation.

Upon hearing that Huangfu Ruixiang had come looking for her, Huangfu Ruiling smirked sarcastically. “He’s clever, managing to figure it out.”

“It’s normal for such suspicions to arise.” Ye Lengan couldn’t resist rolling her eyes at Huangfu Ruiling. ‘Just look at our names; they differ by only one word. Anyone can see what’s going on! Initially, you confidently declared that even if someone figured it out, they wouldn’t come to inquire. Now, isn’t Huangfu Ruixiang here attempting to probe?”

Huangfu Ruiling responded calmly, “So what? As long as we don’t admit it, what can he say? He lacks the capability and the courage to force us to confess.’

“That’s true.” Ye Lengan agreed with a nod. “l didn’t say much to him; I just took a firmer stance, and he immediately backed down.”

“Because he’s only speculating, with no evidence whatsoever,” Huangfu Ruiling said nonchalantly. “Discussing something he wasn’t certain about would naturally make him feel uneasy.”

Ye Lengan nodded. “However, whatever he thinks is inconsequential now. In a few days, we’ll be returning to the mortal world. Even if Huangfu Ruixiang is suspicious, he won’t uncover anything.”

Huangfu Ruiling added indifferently, “It doesn’t matter even if he finds out. As long as we don’t admit it, it’s pointless even if he’s confident in our identity. Nioreover, even if we do admit it, so what? Does he believe he’ll gain any special privileges?”

“l think that’s probably what he thinks.” Ye Lengan chuckled. “Otherwise, why would he go through so much trouble just to find out if you’re Huangfu Ruiling? If he’s truly certain, he might exploit your younger brother’s identity to seek advantages on the main family’s side.”

“Ideals may be lofty, but reality is harsh,” Huangfu Ruiling said bluntly. “In the Huangfu family, no one will open any doors for him.”

All the elders and important figures within the Huangfu family were aware of his identity, but none of them regarded Huangfu Ruixiang with any particular esteem. This was because he had not shown any favoritism toward Huangfu

Ruixiang, and Huangfu Ruixiang did not possess significant cultivation talent.

In the Hidden World, strength reigned supreme.

“Speaking of which, we’ve spent quite some time in the Hidden World. I wonder if the principal misses me.”

Thinking of Zheng Anyang, Ye Lengan couldn’t help but find it amusing. “I think that after I go back this time, the principal won’t let me take any more leave until the end of the college entrance examination.”

Huangfu Ruiling raised his eyebrows. “But, if you insist on taking leave, your principal will still approve it.”

For so long, every time Ye Lengan requested leave, Zheng Anyang would ultimately yield, despite harboring numerous complaints.

Ye Leng’an considered it and shook her head. “Forget it! The principal isn’t young anymore. It’s better for me not to make him angry often. After all, we have to respect the elderly and care for the young!’

Hearing Ye Leng’an’s words, Huangfu Ruiling couldn’t help but shake his head in amusement. “If your principal heard what you said, I don’t know if he should cry or laugh.”

“Of course, he should laugh. It means that I miss him!” Ye Lengan stated with righteousness. “However, I have to say that our principal is really not bad.”

To others, she didn’t know what kind of person the principal was. However, ever since her rebirth, the principal had afforded her a lot of convenience. Nioreover, he had consistently sided with her. Therefore, she was very grateful to the principal.

Thinking of this, Ye Lengan suddenly decided. “Since that’s the case, I’ll bring some gifts for the principal when I go back this time!”

“Aren’t you afraid that he’ll find it strange?” Huangfu Ruiling raised his eyebrows.

“It’s nothing,” Ye Lengan smiled and said. “Isn’t the Zheng family also a big family? The principal must be aware of the existence of the Hidden World. So, even if the gift we bring back is a little unconventional, he won’t find it strange. After you’ve finished your tasks, let’s go out together and see if we can find a suitable gift.”

Huangfu Ruiling never objected to Ye Leng’an’s words, so he nodded readily and continued, “Actually, there are many good things in the Huangfu family’s warehouse. You can go in and see if there are any suitable ones..”
