Chapter 980: Asking for Help

Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Upon hearing such blunt words, Huangfu Ruixiang was momentarily at a loss. Suddenly, he found himself unsure of how to respond. He and Zhong Yating exchanged glances, but neither spoke first.

Ye Leng’an raised an eyebrow and calmly stated, “If you have no urgent matters, then please leave! I have other arrangements today and don’t have much time for idle chatter.”

Seeing Ye Leng’an about to leave, Huangfu Ruixiang started to panic. He quickly interjected, “Sister-in-law, we came over today because Mother wants to ask for your and my brother’s help.”

Hearing Huangfu Ruixiang call her “sister-in-law,” Ye Leng’an’s lips curved into a mocking smile. She could sense that Huangfu Ruixiang’s request this time was significant, otherwise he wouldn’t repeatedly address her like this.

In the past, Huangfu Ruixiang had only referred to her as Miss Ye. Who would believe there wasn’t something fishy going on with this sudden change in address?

After finishing speaking, Huangfu Ruixiang waited for Ye Leng’an to inquire further. However, he noticed that Ye Leng’an remained composed, calmly sipping her tea without any intention of speaking.

Both Huangfu Ruixiang and Zhong Yating felt a sense of awkwardness.

After a while, Huangfu Ruixiang finally spoke again, “Sister-in-law, there’s something you might not be aware of. Recently, the Hidden World’s Zhongyu family accepted several disciples from the mortal world’s side, which is also Mother’s maternal family. This marks the mortal world’s Zhongyu family’s opportunity to return to the Hidden World after many years.”

After his explanation, Huangfu Ruixiang looked to Ye Leng’an for a response.

As expected, Ye Leng’an nodded in understanding and lazily replied, “That’s good news! Congratulations!”

Such a nonchalant response was unexpected for Huangfu Ruixiang. He glanced at Zhong Yating, seeking affirmation.

Quickly understanding, Zhong Yating continued, “Sister-in-law, this was initially a positive development. However, there has been an unexpected turn of events. Previously, Zhongyu Lingshan…”

Here, Zhong Yating glanced cautiously at Ye Leng’an before continuing, “Zhongyu Lingshan encountered some trouble in the mortal world, leading the Hidden World’s Zhongyu family to become angry. They intend to send all their disciples back to the mortal world.”

After her explanation, both Huangfu Ruixiang and Zhong Yating looked to Ye Leng’an, awaiting her response.

Under their expectant gazes, Ye Leng’an nodded. “Ah, I see. So, are you worried that something might happen to those disciples when they return, and you want me to send someone to escort them?”

Ye Leng’an knew full well that Huangfu Ruixiang, or more accurately, Zhongyu Liuying, had no such intentions. Regardless of their ulterior motives, she had no intention of cooperating. She had no obligation to do so and had no intention of doing something so foolish.

“No!” Huangfu Ruixiang quickly interjected, “Sister-in-law, that’s not what we meant. Mother hopes that my brother can appeal to the Zhongyu family to let those disciples stay. After all, they represent the last hope for the mortal world’s Zhongyu family.”

“Oh, I see!” Ye Leng’an wasn’t angry at this news. She nodded and replied, “Since you’re seeking your brother’s help, you should talk to him about it!”

“What?” Huangfu Ruixiang was taken aback by her response. He was somewhat anxious. “Sister-in-law, it’s just a small matter. Can’t you just mention it to my brother?”

If he dared to bring up this matter with Huangfu Ruiling, he wouldn’t be here now. Just the sight of Huangfu Ruiling made him nervous. Not to mention, he would have to discuss this matter with him.

At this moment, he couldn’t help but resent his mother inwardly. She shouldn’t have entrusted such a matter to him.

“Huangfu Ruixiang, I think you need to clarify one thing!” Ye Leng’an fixed her gaze on Huangfu Ruixiang, the sarcasm in her tone growing stronger. “You were there when Zhongyu Lingshan encountered trouble. You should be well aware of the reasons. So, are you implying that I’m responsible for the current situation?”

Was there something wrong with Huangfu Ruixiang’s head? He had witnessed the grudge between Zhongyu Lingshan and her. Yet now he expected her to discuss such a matter with Huangfu Ruiling.

Was she supposed to be a saint who always repaid evil with kindness?

“No, Sister-in-law. Ruixiang didn’t mean that.” Zhong Yating quickly intervened before Huangfu Ruixiang could respond. “Ruixiang is just not very articulate. Actually, we didn’t want to get involved in this matter either. But since Mother is a member of the Zhongyu family, her thoughts are understandable.”

Huangfu Ruixiang remained silent, allowing Zhong Yating to speak for him. He truly didn’t know how to explain himself.

Ye Leng’an looked at the couple before her, her lips curling into a mocking smile. “Fine. I understand what you’re trying to say. However, let me make one thing clear. I won’t get involved in this matter. If you really need Ling to speak to the Zhongyu family, you’ll have to do it yourselves.”

“Sister-in-law, about this matter…” Zhong Yating hesitated for a moment before continuing, “Regardless, it’s a matter concerning Mother. As daughters-in-law, shouldn’t we at least try? We only hope that you can bring it up to Brother. Whether he agrees or not, we won’t force the issue.”

Or rather, they didn’t dare to force the issue.

Ye Leng’an narrowed her eyes, her sharp gaze fixed on them. A cold smirk played on her lips. “In that case, I suggest you don’t waste your efforts. Because there’s no way Ling will agree to your request.”
