Chapter 780: They’d Think It Was Your Doing

The staff member hesitated; after all, they had rules and couldn’t disturb guests. However, the young lady’s demeanor before him was exceptionally pleasant, and she belonged to the Murong family.

Although their small town was somewhat remote, it wasn’t backward. The four major families in the capital all had branches in the city. Naturally, he understood the Murong family’s status and found it difficult to refuse.

Murong Yumeng didn’t press but patiently awaited his response. Yet, her face exuded calm confidence, evidently not expecting rejection.

“Alright then!”

The staff member nodded and picked up the phone to call the room. Since the guests had just checked in, they were likely still there.

If they had gone out, he wouldn’t dare disturb them on their private line. Otherwise, he might receive complaints for disrupting their leisure.

“No need to call.”

Ye Leng’an held Huangfu Ruiling’s hand, stepping forward with a smile. “We’re here! As for the room, no need to inquire. We’re content with our current one.”

“It’s you!” Murong Yumeng immediately recognized the person stepping out. “What are you doing here?”

Not only Murong Yumeng but Xiao Lingling, too, felt a surge of jealousy seeing Ye Leng’an. “Ye Leng’an, you…”

Realizing the two knew her, Ye Leng’an was surprised. “You are…”

She couldn’t help but doubt her memory. She thought she had a good memory, yet she couldn’t recall them, let alone any acquaintance.

However, they clearly knew her and even called her name, though not in a friendly tone.

Seeing Ye Leng’an’s perplexed expression, it was apparent she didn’t recognize them.

Murong Yumeng’s eyes flashed with a cold gleam, yet her face maintained a faint smile. “Junior Sister Ye, you may not know me, but I’ve heard of you. I’m also a student at Capital University, a senior in my third year. My surname is Murong. If you don’t mind, you can call me senior sister.”

“Yumeng, she must have done it on purpose,” Xiao Lingling immediately interjected, her gaze toward Ye Leng’an filled with jealousy and hostility. “Even if you don’t know me, you must know Yumeng. What are you pretending for now? You’re so shameless, still trying to compete with Yumeng for the title of school belle.”

With such impolite words, a hint of hostility flashed in Huangfu Ruiling’s eyes as he looked at Xiao Lingling, the coldness in his gaze sending shivers down one’s spine.

Though Xiao Lingling was unaware of what was happening, she suddenly felt a chill rising from the soles of her feet, causing her to shrink back involuntarily.

Upon hearing Xiao Lingling’s words, Ye Leng’an realized. “You’re Murong Yumeng.”

She had heard about this school belle from Zhu Bixuan back in the dormitory. At that time, she hadn’t paid much attention, as she wasn’t interested in such matters. Who would have thought she would encounter Murong Yumeng here? Was this considered fate?

“Lingling, quiet.” Murong Yumeng reprimanded Xiao Lingling, then turned to Ye Leng’an with a smile. “Junior Sister Ye, please pardon her. She’s not good with words. Allow me to apologize on her behalf.”

“Hehe, Senior Sister Murong, your friend isn’t exactly young!” Ye Leng’an smirked sarcastically. “At this age, still unable to speak without offending. If people didn’t know better, they’d think it was your doing!”

Murong Yumeng really knew how to put on an act! Xiao Lingling was obviously a tool in her hands. If she truly intended to stop Xiao Lingling from speaking, she would have spoken up long before Xiao Lingling finished, instead of pretending to apologize afterward.

Murong Yumeng’s expression changed briefly at Ye Leng’an’s blunt words, though she still wore a warm smile. Glancing at Ye Leng’an, she appeared apologetic, even toward a liked junior.

“I apologize for not considering it,” Murong Yumeng said to Xiao Lingling, then turned to persuade her. “Lingling, you were at fault today. You should apologize.”

Although Murong Yumeng’s face showed no hint of blame, and her tone was very gentle, Xiao Lingling’s eyes still flashed with a hint of panic. Then, she looked towards Ye Leng’an and obediently apologized, “I’m sorry for my rudeness.”

Despite her apology, Xiao Lingling’s face betrayed unwillingness, clearly forced.

Ye Leng’an completely disregarded such a perfunctory apology., not even glancing at Xiao Lingling. Instead, she looked at Murong Yumeng and continued, “Earlier, Senior Sister Murong seemed to be looking for us, right? Now that we’re here, why not talk face-to-face?”

“So you booked the most luxurious suite!”

Murong Yumeng understood now, noticing Ye Leng’an wasn’t alone; she was with a man.

When her gaze fell on him, she was stunned.

Though he wore casual clothes, he exuded a noble aura, accentuated by his perfect features. His mere presence demanded attention. She couldn’t fathom why she hadn’t noticed him earlier!

Seeing Murong Yumeng’s lingering gaze on Huangfu Ruiling, Ye Leng’an’s eyes darkened with displeasure. Stepping forward, she blocked Huangfu Ruiling. “Senior Sister Murong!”

She didn’t appreciate Murong Yumeng eyeing Huangfu Ruiling, feeling like someone was coveting her man.

Huangfu Ruiling was taken aback by Murong Yumeng’s gaze. Unexpectedly, before he could react, Ye Leng’an had already stepped in to block his view.

Such evident jealousy surprised Huangfu Ruiling, a glint of delight flashing in his eyes.
