Chapter 163 clarification
"Miss Gan of the Nangong family?" Ye Leng'an looked at Chen Wanqin, and said with a smile, "You don't even know what the matter is, and now you dare to speak nonsense here, it's really naive."
"What do you mean?" Chen Wanqin was startled, even a little suspicious, "Ye Leng'an, are you planning to do something? Let me tell you, today's banquet is held by the Nangong family. If anything goes wrong, the Nangong family will not let you go."
"Who told you that this is a banquet held by the Nangong family?" Ye Leng'an shook his head with a smile, "We were invited by Mrs. Nangong, not the Nangong family. Don't make a mistake."
"Mrs. Nangong represents the Nangong family!" Chen Wanqin breathed a sigh of relief when she heard Ye Leng'an's words, and when she looked at Ye Leng'an, her eyes were a little more smug, "I know you are jealous of Xiyuan, that's why you care about such trivial things here."
"Small matter?" Ye Leng'an raised his eyebrows and continued, "If you think it's a small matter, then it is a small matter! Anyway, everyone who came to the banquet today knows that Mrs. Nangong accepted her daughter today, and has nothing to do with the Nangong family. However, I think, even if you can only climb up to Mrs. Nangong, it is a great opportunity for you!"
After speaking, Ye Leng'an turned and left without hesitation.
Chen Wanqin, who was left in place, was full of surprise and uncertainty. Although she tried her best to convince herself, she must not be affected by Ye Leng'an's words. However, in her heart, she couldn't make up her mind. In the end, those words still had a great impact on her.
Thinking of this, she immediately walked out. She couldn't understand these things now. That being the case, she would go to her husband to discuss it. Let's see if things are really as Ye Leng'an said.
Ye Li couldn't help frowning after hearing Chen Wanqin's words. However, he was not very clear about what was going on.
"Husband, tell me, is this matter like what Ye Leng'an said, that Xiyuan was just adopted by Mrs. Nangong as a goddaughter, and has nothing to do with the Nangong family?" Chen Wanqin showed concern, "Isn't Mrs. Nangong just deceiving us by doing this?"
"Don't talk nonsense." Upon hearing such words, Ye Li immediately scolded, and then quickly looked around, only to find that no one noticed this side, and he was relieved, "Whether it is in the name of Mrs. Nangong or the name of the Nangong family, it is a good thing for Xiyuan."
Speaking of this, Ye Li lowered his voice, "This is the domain of the Nangong family, don't talk nonsense, it would be bad if people overheard you."
If someone hears such obvious dissatisfaction with Mrs. Nangong and then reaches Mrs. Nangong's ears, wouldn't that mean offending people?
He naturally also knows the difference between Mrs. Nangong's invitation and the Nangong Family's invitation. However, now that the initiative is in Mrs. Nangong's hands, they can't make any changes at all. Moreover, no matter what it is, for Xiyuan, it is a high climb.
Chen Wanqin was also taken aback, and didn't dare to complain anymore, but said worriedly, "I don't know if Xiyuan knows about this."
"Whether Xiyuan knows it or not, it can't change any facts." Ye Li said, "Also, it doesn't matter whether Xiyuan is the goddaughter of Mrs. Nangong or the goddaughter of the Nangong family. She has saved Mrs. Nangong and Young Master Nangong, and they will not treat her badly."
After hearing Ye Li's words, Chen Wanqin breathed a sigh of relief.
On the other side, Ye Leng'an also returned to Huangfu Ruiling's side.
"Did something happen?" Looking at Ye Leng'an who came back, Huangfu Ruiling raised his eyebrows and asked, "It's been a little long!"
"I met an acquaintance and talked a few words." Ye Leng'an said, "However, it was not a pleasant conversation."
Huangfu Ruiling didn't pursue the question either.
At this time, Nangong Xuyao suddenly came over, looked at Huangfu Ruiling, with a trace of hesitation on his face, finally mustered up the courage, stepped forward, and said, "Young Master Huangfu, I wonder if I can have a few words with you alone?"
On weekdays, he doesn't have many opportunities to meet Huangfu Ruiling. Moreover, even if he came to look for it in person, Huangfu Ruiling would not see him. This is already the case now, and in the near future, Huangfu Ruiling will soon take over as the head of the Huangfu family. At that time, it will be even more difficult to ask Huangfu Ruiling for clarification.
So, after much deliberation, he felt that today might be the best opportunity. Finally, he mustered up the courage and came over.
Obviously, Huangfu Ruiling didn't intend to talk alone, he said directly, "If you have anything to say, just say it!"
"Yes!" A mischievous smile flashed in Ye Leng'an's eyes, she squeezed her throat, looked at Huangfu Ruiling, and said coquettishly, "Honey, you won't have anything to hide from me, will you?"
That delicate voice gave her goosebumps.
Huangfu Ruiling's eyes flashed a hint of doting, he held back his smile, and said, "Of course."
"Honey, I knew you were the best for me." Ye Leng'an directly bent down, and pressed a sweet kiss on Huangfu Ruiling's face, "This is a reward for you!"
This sudden surprise made Huangfu Ruiling's eyes light up. He felt that it wouldn't hurt to have more rewards like this!
Seeing such a situation, for some reason, Nangong Xuyao felt a little intrusive.
Before, because of Ye Xiyuan's misleading, he didn't have any good feelings for Ye Leng'an. Now that he knew what kind of person Ye Xiyuan was, the disgust he felt because of Ye Xiyuan had disappeared. However, even so, he didn't have much affection for Ye Leng'an.
In his opinion, Ye Leng'an is just attached to Huangfu Ruiling, so he doesn't know how much respect to give.
Of course, in front of Huangfu Ruiling, he would never show his contempt. After all, the current Ye Leng'an still has a place in Huangfu Ruiling's heart. It depends on the owner to beat the dog!
"Master Huangfu, since that's the case, then I'll ask directly." After thinking for a while, Nangong Xuyao decided to ask, "Do you know who the person who saved me was?"
It was very strange, no matter how he searched, he couldn't find out who saved him in that alley back then. He guessed that someone might have covered up this fact, and the most likely person to do this was Huangfu Ruiling. Because only Huangfu Ruiling knew that Ye Xiyuan was not his savior, and also knew who his real savior was.
It's just that he doesn't understand, why did Huangfu Ruiling do this?
"Isn't your savior Ye Xiyuan?" The corner of Huangfu Ruiling's mouth curved into a sarcasm, "Nangong Xuyao, didn't you insist on this at the beginning? Why did you suddenly ask this question now?"
"Master Huangfu, what happened before was my rudeness." Nangong Xuyao's face flashed a trace of embarrassment, "I did misunderstand before, and it was not Ye Xiyuan who saved me. I really want to know who the savior is, and I hope Young Master Huangfu can tell."
"Besides, I hope to be able to thank you in person for this life-saving grace."
"Do you know, is it important to you?" Huangfu Ruiling said coldly, "Could it be that the young master of Nangong wants to show his life-saving grace again? Just like how he treated Ye Xiyuan back then?"
When it came to the body promise, Huangfu Ruiling's tone was almost freezing.
Nangong Xuyao couldn't help shivering, and he quickly said, "Master Huangfu, since the other party saved my life, then I have the right to know who the other party is! As for how I want to thank you, that's my business!"
I don't know why, but he always feels that when he talks about his savior, Huangfu Ruiling always exudes a vague hostility. However, thinking about it, it also feels a little impossible. After all, even if Huangfu Ruiling knew who his savior was, he shouldn't be hostile. Because, the fact that the other party saved his life has nothing to do with Huangfu Ruiling.
"You want to see the other party, but the other party does not necessarily want to see you." Huangfu Ruiling glanced at Nangong Xuyao indifferently, and continued, "Besides, you have already paid the medical bills, then the relationship between you and her is considered settled, and there is no need to meet."
"Master Huangfu, this is a matter between me and the other party, it should have nothing to do with you! Why do you decide for the other party?" Nangong Xuyao still did not give up, he said, "I hope you can tell me the contact information of that person, and I will go find her in person."
The reason why he wanted to find this lifesaver so eagerly was not only because he wanted to thank him for saving his life, but also because he wanted to make friends with him.
Although he didn't know what kind of person the other party was, his situation at the time was almost life-threatening. But the other party was not only able to bring him back, but even healed his wounds at once, which shows how powerful the other party's medical skills are. It is definitely a good thing for him to make friends with such a genius doctor.
"Nangong Xuyao, if you want to know, then go and investigate yourself!" Huangfu Ruiling said bluntly, "But if you want to get an answer from me, then you are dreaming."
Seeing Huangfu Ruiling's attitude, Nangong Xuyao was a little anxious. But for a while, he didn't know how to continue to persuade Huangfu Ruiling.
"Master Nangong is mainly fine, so please leave!" Ye Leng'an on the side also said at this time, "Since we have finished talking, you should go entertain the guests. After all, even if today is not your Nangong family's home court, it is still your mother's."
"Does this have something to do with you?" Nangong Xuyao, who was already in a bad mood because of Huangfu Ruiling's refusal, frowned even more after hearing Ye Leng'an's words, and when he spoke to Ye Leng'an, his tone was a little irritated.
"Of course it has something to do with me!" Compared with Nangong Xuyao's impatience, Ye Leng'an seemed much calmer, and even had a smile on his face, "You have been here all this time, but you have disturbed the relationship between the two of us."
Nangong Xuyao's face darkened a little with Ye Leng'an's words as a matter of course, "Miss Ye, you"
"Young Master Nangong, you're disturbing us." Before Nangong Xuyao finished speaking, Huangfu Ruiling interrupted him, "As guests, we hope to have some space to be alone. I don't know if that's possible!"
"excuse me."
Huangfu Ruiling had already said this, so it was naturally impossible for Nangong Xuyao to stay like this. So, after leaving a word, he turned and left.
"Tell me, why is he so obsessed with knowing who the savior is?" Ye Leng'an shrugged, and said amusedly, "Could it be that he dislikes the low medical expenses?"
"Probably want to make friends!" Huangfu Ruiling said calmly, "Although Nangong Xuyao is the young master of the Nangong family, he is not the head of the family. Now I don't know how many people are eyeing his position. It can be seen that he almost died last time. Probably because he knows that the savior has superb medical skills! So I want to make friends."
After hearing Huangfu Ruiling's analysis, Ye Leng'an curled her lips, "It really is the young master of the Nangong family, and even the so-called life-saving grace was calculated. It seems that I was really blind at the beginning, so I saved such a person!"
The only thing that feels more comforting is the one billion medical expenses!
"Perhaps there was a bit of sincerity in the past!" Huangfu Ruiling said indifferently, "You can tell by how he treated Ye Xiyuan before."
"So, the sincerity was given to a fake savior." Ye Leng'an felt that he was a little powerless to complain at the moment.
Hearing Ye Leng'an's words, Huangfu Ruiling smiled helplessly. However, I feel that this is very good in my heart.
In his opinion, the worse Ye Lengan's impression of Nangong Xuyao was, the happier he was.
"I really like the reward just now." Huangfu Ruiling said suddenly, "The more rewards like this, the better."
Hearing Huangfu Ruiling mention the kiss just now, Ye Leng'an couldn't help but beat faster, but she immediately returned to her usual appearance, with a bright smile on her face, "If you want to reward, it depends on your future performance."
Huangfu Ruiling took Ye Leng'an's hand, kissed it, then raised his head, smiled and said, "Please wait and see."
On the other side, Ye Xiyuan followed Murong Yanshu to meet people. There was a smile on her face all the time, and she felt a sense of satisfaction in knowing these noble ladies who might not even look at her. It's just that there's one thing she finds strange.
When the two of them were finally left, Ye Xiyuan couldn't help asking, "Godmother, that"
There was a trace of hesitation on her face, as if she wanted to say something, but couldn't say it.
"Xiyuan, what is there to be embarrassed to say between us!" Murong Yanshu said with a smile on her face, "Don't be hesitant. From today onwards, you will be my goddaughter. You must be open and generous in everything you do and say, you know?"
"Understood, godmother." Ye Xiyuan nodded obediently, and then, after a pause, asked, "Godmother, today, uh...won't Patriarch Nangong come over?"
She also wanted to call godfather, but she was too embarrassed to say so. Because from the beginning to the end, she had never met the head of the Nangong family. Moreover, if she really called godfather, she seemed a little impatient.
After hearing Ye Xiyuan's words, Murong Yanshu waved her hand nonchalantly, "He won't come tonight. He's still abroad now! Just after the first day of junior high school, he has already gone abroad to discuss business. This business is very important, so he has been following up abroad and hasn't returned to China yet!"
Ye Xiyuan understood, nodded, and then said with a smile, "Patriarch Nangong is really busy!"
While speaking, she involuntarily looked towards Murong Yanshu, just waiting for the other party to correct her address. She has already called Murong Yanshu godmother, shouldn't she call Patriarch Nangong godfather? It's just that she can't raise this point directly, it needs to be raised by Murong Yanshu.
It's just that, unexpectedly, after her words outside the hall, Murong Yanshu just nodded, and then said, "Okay, the time is almost up, and people are almost due. Let's go to the stage!"
Ye Xiyuan was a little disappointed, but thinking that she would enjoy the envious eyes of everyone on the stage next, her mood improved again.
Murong Yanshu led Ye Xiyuan onto the stage, and Nangong Xuyao also followed.
The music that was still playing stopped at this moment, and everyone's eyes were focused on the stage.
Ye Li and Chen Wanqin looked at Ye Xiyuan on the stage, their eyes were full of comfort. Ye Anyun is also in a good mood, because he already knows that with Ye Xiyuan's intercession, Li Qiaomeng will be released soon. For this, he is also a little more grateful to this sister. Now seeing his sister standing on the stage like a princess, he is naturally happy for her.
Murong Yanshu stood on the stage, took the microphone from the waiter, and said, "Thank you for taking time out of your busy schedule to attend my personal banquet. I believe everyone knows why I held this banquet today!"
When she said this, she turned her head, looked at Ye Xiyuan, smiled and said, "Xiyuan, come here."
Ye Xiyuan, who had been standing by the side, couldn't help but a trace of doubt flashed in her eyes after hearing Murong Yanshu's words. Especially when I heard Murong Yanshu say that it was a personal banquet, I was even more puzzled. However, in such an occasion, she couldn't help but think too much.
When Murong Yanshu was calling herself, she immediately took a step forward and came to Murong Yanshu's side, with a decent and generous smile on her face.
Murong Yanshu looked away from Ye Xiyuan, looked at the people below, and continued, "I believe everyone knows that there was an accident at the banquet last time. If Xiyuan hadn't saved me, maybe I would be in the hospital by now."
"Later, I found out that Xiyuan and I really hit it off, so I decided to accept her as my goddaughter. From today on, Xiyuan will be my goddaughter of Murong Yanshu. I hope everyone will take care of her in the future."
After finishing speaking, she looked at Ye Xiyuan, smiled and said, "Xiyuan, do you want to say a few words?"
Ye Xiyuan didn't notice anything wrong in Murong Yanshu's words at all. She stepped forward, took the microphone, and said with a smile, "Hi everyone, I'm Ye Xiyuan. I'm very happy to be the goddaughter of the Nangong family. I hope you can give me more advice in the future."
As soon as this remark was made, the expressions of the guests off the court were all different. Obviously, those who were invited here knew very well that the banquet this time was held in Murong Yanshu's personal name, that is to say, this time it was just her adopting her daughter and had nothing to do with the Nangong family.
However, now Ye Xiyuan directly stated that she is the goddaughter of the Nangong family. In this case, it seems somewhat ignorant.
Murong Yanshu naturally also heard such words, a glint of darkness flashed in her eyes, and her favor towards Ye Xiyuan was a little lower. However, she didn't say anything.
Because she knows very well that even if she doesn't say anything, the people who can come today are all good people, so they naturally know what she means. Therefore, everyone knows whether Ye Xiyuan is her goddaughter or the Nangong family's goddaughter.
Ye Xiyuan didn't notice the strange eyes of the people off the field.
It was the Ye family, standing among the guests, they naturally noticed something strange. However, even if they knew, they had no way to remind Ye Xiyuan on the stage at this moment, so they could only be anxious here.
At this time, Chen Wanqin couldn't help but think of what Ye Leng'an had said, and she had a very bad premonition in her heart.
After putting down the microphone, Ye Xiyuan obediently came to Murong Yanshu's side again.
Having finished speaking, he planned to step down, but no one thought that at this time, Nangong Xuyao actually stepped forward and picked up the microphone.
"I have a few words to say."
As soon as the voice came out, it immediately attracted everyone's attention.
Murong Yanshu and Ye Xiyuan did not step down in a hurry, but continued to stand by and wait for Nangong Xuyao.
After Nangong Xuyao cleared his throat, he said bluntly, "Here, first of all, I want to clarify that it is my mother who adopted her daughter today, not the Nangong family. This is very important. I hope everyone will not misunderstand."
As soon as these words came out, Ye Xiyuan, who was still smiling on her face, widened her eyes instantly, and looked at Nangong Xuyao suddenly, her eyes were full of disbelief.
At the same time, she also remembered what Murong Yanshu did just now, and what Murong Yanshu said. In an instant, the blood on her face faded, and her whole face looked extremely pale.
