Chapter 655: Testing the Water
Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
The Family Competition had concluded, and Huangfu Ruiling and Ye Lengan decided to temporarily return to the mortal world.
Regarding the matters concerning the Ye family, Ye Lengan had no immediate plans to expose them. She intended to gather more evidence upon returning to the mortal world before unveiling the truth.
However, before their departure, Huangfu Ruiling needed to attend to the affairs of the Huangfu family.
Ye Lengan, uninterested in these matters, decided to take a stroll. Unexpectedly, before reaching the door, she was hailed by someone in the corridor.
Looking at the person who stopped her, Ye Leng’an’s lips curled into an intrigued smile. She turned to the person and calmly asked, “What’s the matter?”
The person was none other than Huangfu Ruixiang.
However, when she saw him calling out to her, she was momentarily bewildered. She was sure that during her time in the Hidden World, she had no interaction with Huangfu Ruixiang. The two hadn’t exchanged a single word, yet he suddenly stopped her now. She was genuinely curious about the reason.
“Miss Ye.” Huangfu Ruixiang stepped forward but maintained a cautious distance. “l have something I’d like to ask you.”
Although he suspected Huangfu Ling to be Huangfu Ruiling, he lacked the courage to verify it directly. His current understanding was based on speculations. If he recklessly approached the family head and his guess turned out to be everything he had would crumble.
After careful consideration, he decided to test the waters with Ye Lengan. However, the situation didn’t unfold as smoothly as he had hoped. Ye Lengan, being the family head’s fiancée, was not someone a mere disciple could approach easily. Especially given their usual inseparable connection, finding an opportunity was a challenge.
Now that an opportunity presented itself, he couldn’t let it slip away.
“Oh.” Ye Lengan looked at Huangfu Ruixiang, a faint smile playing on her lips.
“Who are you? Why stop me? Do you have something to say?”
Huangfu Ruixiang was taken aback. He hadn’t expected her complete denial.
“What’s the matter? Surprised?” Ye Lengan continued, “l don’t recall any interaction between us. Who knows what your intentions are for stopping me in the corridor?”
“l didn’t,” Huangfu Ruixiang quickly responded to Ye Lengan’s words. “Miss
Ye, I just…”
His thoughts were in disarray. At this moment, he naturally lost the confidence he had before.
Taking a deep breath, Huangfu Ruixiang tried to calm himself. “Miss Ye, 1 mean no harm. I just wanted to talk. I heard you came from the mortal world, and I also have ties there. I know someone with a name quite similar to yours. Hence, 1 wanted to inquire.”
While speaking, he kept a close eye on Ye Leng’an, hoping to decipher any hint from her expression.
But Ye Lengan remained calm, showing no signs of change. “So?” she asked, “Did you come all the way here just to tell me about someone with a name similar to mine? The world is vast, and there are so many people. Even if names are not just similar but exactly the same, it’s not uncommon. Did you stop me just to say such nonsense?”
“Miss Ye, aren’t you curious at all?” Huangfu Ruixiang became somewhat anxious and hastily continued, “The girl’s name is Ye Lengan, and her boyfriend’s name is Huangfu Ruiling.”
He stared intently at Ye Leng’an, fearing he might miss even the slightest hint of her expression.
“What does it have to do with me?” Ye Lengan spoke indifferently. “As an inner sect disciple, instead of dedicating time to improving your cultivation, you’re here pulling me into irrelevant chatter. Are you that idle?”
“No, I’m not.” Faced with such a cold expression, Huangfu Ruixiang became anxious. He hurriedly added, “Miss Ye, I’m just a bit curious. Do you have any connection with Ye Lengan?”
He didn’t know if the person in front of him was pretending to be clueless or if she wasn’t Ye Lengan at all. Everything might just be his unfounded speculation.
But, the names were undeniably similar. Moreover, if Huangfu Ling wasn’t Huangfu Ruiling, then why could he stay?
“The Ye Lengan you mentioned, 1 don’t know her.” She looked at Huangfu Ruixiang and continued, “However, if you think you have too much time and it’s unsuitable for cultivation, maybe it’s best for you not to stay in the family.” Hearing this, Huangfu Ruixiang was truly anxious this time. Urgency laced his tone as he said, “Miss Ye, you’ve misunderstood. I really have no other intentions. Also, I’ve been diligently cultivating, not daring to slack off in the least. So please, don’t ask me to leave.”
He never anticipated that a simple probing would almost result in being expelled. He didn’t doubt the weight of her words at all.
The person in front of him was the family head’s fiancée, holding a position in the family second only to the family head. He, on the other hand, was just a minor inner sect disciple, incapable of standing against her. If she genuinely wanted him gone, he believed he might return to the mortal world by tomorrow.
Ye Leng’an looked coldly at Huangfu Ruixiang and continued, “Let’s forget about this incident. However, if you continue bothering me with such nonsense in the future, don’t blame me for being impolite.”
With that, she didn’t spare another glance at Huangfu Ruixiang and left.

Huangfu Ruixiang didn’t dare to breathe loudly.
It wasn’t until Ye Leng’an’s figure disappeared at the end of the corridor that he breathed a sigh of relief. Then, he started to gulp down fresh air.
Simultaneously, a sense of lingering fear gripped him. He feared that his actions today might jeopardize his future.
However, doubts began to surface in his mind. Could his initial speculations be wrong? Was there truly no connection between Huangfu Ruiling and Huangfu Ling?
Yet, in fact, despite spending considerable time in the Hidden World, he had never crossed paths with Huangfu Ruiling..
