Chapter 947: Do You Dare to Swear?
Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Zhongyu Lingshan’s words carried an air of righteousness, but nobody in the room believed them.
“I have no improper intentions!”
Upon hearing this, Ye Leng’an blinked, then smiled and spoke, “Really? Then, do you dare to swear?”
As soon as these words were uttered, Zhongyu Lingshan’s expression immediately darkened. “Miss Ye, do you no longer trust me?”
Her righteous demeanor appeared as that of someone wrongfully accused. In such a situation, it should have been impossible for anyone to continue pressing on. Especially considering both families were prominent, maintaining their relationship was essential. They couldn’t afford to escalate matters!
However, evidently, Zhongyu Lingshan didn’t understand Ye Leng’an at all.
No one anticipated that after hearing Zhongyu Lingshan’s words, Ye Leng’an would nod seriously. “Indeed! I simply don’t trust you! So, Miss Zhongyu, do you dare to swear?”
This single statement left Zhongyu Lingshan stunned, unsure of how to react. Clearly, she hadn’t expected such a response from Ye Leng’an.
Cultivators couldn’t casually swear, as each oath was witnessed and supervised by the Heavenly Dao.
The atmosphere suddenly became notably awkward, with everyone’s gaze fixated on Zhongyu Lingshan.
Zhongyu Lingshan felt exceptionally embarrassed.
However, this didn’t deter Ye Leng’an. She continued to gaze at Zhongyu Lingshan earnestly. “Why are you silent now? Or perhaps, were your previous words insincere?”
This remark seemed to roast Zhongyu Lingshan, making her feel as if she would be wrong no matter how she responded unless she was willing to swear on the spot. However, that was absolutely out of the question; she wouldn’t joke about her future.
“Today is a joyous occasion. Let’s set aside these trivial matters,” Zhongyu Liuying interjected to defuse the tension. “Today is Jingzhang’s birthday. Let’s focus on celebrating!”
Her words not only aimed to ease Zhongyu Lingshan’s situation but also subtly hinted at Ye Leng’an’s intrusion.
Huangfu Jingzhang expressed dissatisfaction, “Today is my birthday, so I hope everyone enjoys themselves, but does not cause any trouble. Consider it a favor to me.”
These words were directed at Ye Leng’an.
Before Ye Leng’an could respond, Huangfu Ruiling showed his displeasure. Emitting an icy aura, he looked at Huangfu Jingzhang as if he were not his father, but someone even less familiar.
Such a cold gaze was evident to anyone, and Huangfu Ruiling didn’t bother to conceal it. In his mind, his estrangement from his parents couldn’t compare to Ye Leng’an.
Huangfu Jingzhang felt a pang of discomfort, his dissatisfaction with Ye Leng’an growing.
Their father-son relationship was already weak, but now, with Ye Leng’an, they couldn’t even maintain a normal relationship. He couldn’t understand what was so appealing about Ye Leng’an! Other than her appearance, she had nothing to offer. Why did Huangfu Ruiling fall for such a woman?
“Let’s go inside and eat first,” Huangfu Jingxian suggested upon sensing the awkward atmosphere. “Can’t we discuss other matters later, considering we’re all gathered here today?”
He wasn’t taking sides; he just wanted to lighten the mood.
“Let’s hurry and head to the dining hall!” Zhongyu Liuying quickly added.
Then, she and Huangfu Jingzhang stood up.
Finally finding an exit, Zhongyu Lingshan didn’t dare to say anything further. As everyone prepared to leave, she shot Ye Leng’an a fierce glare when no one was looking. The ruthlessness in her eyes sent shivers down one’s spine.
Considering what had just occurred, she probably harbored a deep hatred for Ye Leng’an!
In the face of Zhongyu Lingshan’s animosity, Ye Leng’an’s lips curled into a faint smile. She didn’t stand up but remained seated, smiling casually. “Are you leaving, Miss Zhongyu? You haven’t answered my question yet! Feeling guilty?”
With this remark, the previously eased atmosphere once again grew awkward.
Zhongyu Lingshan’s face flushed red. At this moment, she didn’t care that others were present. When she looked at Ye Leng’an, her gaze resembled that of someone facing a mortal enemy.
Huangfu Jingzhang and Zhongyu Liuying’s expressions also turned particularly grim.
Ye Leng’an’s words now felt like a serious challenge to the words spoken earlier to smooth things over.
However, Ye Leng’an paid no mind to these things. As for Huangfu Ruiling, he undoubtedly stood unconditionally by Ye Leng’an’s side.
“Miss Ye, since today is Uncle’s birthday, let’s not go too far.” Zhongyu Lingshan almost sounded murderous as she addressed Ye Leng’an. “After all, Uncle is the father of Master Huangfu. Isn’t your behavior disrespectful?”
“Respect is for those who have self-respect,” Ye Leng’an retorted without hesitation. “That’s why I speak differently to different people.”
Zhongyu Lingshan’s expression immediately darkened. She wasn’t a fool and naturally understood that Ye Leng’an was subtly mocking her for lacking self-respect. At that thought, a glint of darkness flickered in her eyes as she looked at Ye Leng’an.
At this moment, Huangfu Jingzhang stepped forward and spoke directly, “Enough, let’s not say more. Just give me some face. Everyone, let’s go eat!”

His expression had already turned sour. Today was his birthday, but neither Huangfu Ruiling nor Ye Leng’an came to offer him sincere blessings.
Ye Leng’an was one thing, but Huangfu Ruiling was his son, yet he lacked sincerity.
Seeing Huangfu Jingzhang’s demeanor, everyone refrained from saying anything more. They stood up one after another, intending to head to the dining hall.
Only Huangfu Ruiling remained motionless. He looked at Ye Leng’an beside him and asked, “Do you intend to stay?”
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone’s gaze immediately fell upon the two of them. Clearly, everyone understood what Huangfu Ruiling meant. He was implying that as long as Ye Leng’an uttered the word “no”, they would leave immediately.
