“Mother still has something to do.” Nangong Xuyao looked at Ye Xiyuan in confusion. “Is there something wrong?”
He was very surprised that Ye Xiyuan had suddenly asked about Murong Yanshu. Moreover, even though his mother could be said to be amiable when facing Ye Xiyuan, there was an underlying tension that couldn’t be concealed. His mother was the matriarch of the Nangong family, and even if she could be reserved, Xiyuan would still feel uncomfortable.
“No, 1 just feel that Auntie is very amiable. 1 still want to have a good chat with her! That’s why I asked.” Ye Xiyuan wore a smile on her face, with a hint of hidden resentment in her eyes. “Since Auntie has something to attend to, I won’t disturb you further.”
Right now, Murong Yanshu’s favorability towards her had yet to reach the system’s requirements, so her mission had yet to be completed. If she didn’t
see Murong Yanshu for the rest of the night, wouldn’t her mission tonight fail? If so, she would have to lose some intelligence points.
The National Mathematical Olympiad was about to begin. If her intelligence points decreased, it would be very difficult for her to win the championship. Furthermore, Ye Lengan was right in front of her. Although she had a strong aversion to Ye Lengan, she had to admit that Ye Lengan was indeed the biggest stumbling block on her path to first place in the Mathematical Olympiad.
If she failed this mission, then winning first place in the Mathematical Olympiad would definitely be affected.
Thinking of this, she could not help but feel a little frustrated. Moreover, she couldn’t let Nangong Xuyao see anything strange.
“l didn’t expect you to like my mother so much!” Nangong Xuyao was a little surprised, but then he smiled and said, “Usually, even my cousins feel a little pressure when they interact with my mother. I didn’t expect you to actually want to have a good chat with her. It seems like you and my mother really have a connection. She’ll be very pleased when she finds out.”
“Auntie is your mother. Of course, I like her very much.” When Ye Xiyuan said this, her face couldn’t help but blush, and her voice became softer. “Besides, I also hope that Auntie will like me.”
Nangong Xuyao’s expression softened when he saw Ye Xiyuan’s flushed cheeks. “Yes, Mother will like you.”
He had already made up his mind that he would find an opportunity to introduce Ye Xiyuan to his mother later. Only through interaction would his mother truly understand what kind of girl Xiyuan was. Once she got to know
Xiyuan, she would surely like her. Then, when he pursued a relationship with Xiyuan, there was a good chance that he would have his mother’s support.
Of course, he didn’t tell Ye Xiyuan about this because he wasn’t sure if his mother would have time later, and he didn’t want Xiyuan to be disappointed.
In fact, if he could, he also hoped to be like Huangfu Ruiling, to be able to directly announce the status of the girl he liked without needing anyone’s consent. He only needed to do whatever he wanted to give the girl he liked the greatest sense of security.
However, he couldn’t do this because his situation was completely different from Huangfu Ruilings. Huangfu Ruiling already had great power and did not need to take into account anyone’s opinions. However, he was different. Although they were both young masters, the power of the Nangong family was still in his father’s hands. Moreover, his cousins were all eyeing him covetously, waiting for him to make a mistake so that they could replace him.
Therefore, he had to think twice about everything he did and take every step carefully. This also meant that there were many things that he could not do as he pleased.
Even though he liked Ye Xiyuan now, it hadn’t reached the point where he couldn’t live without her. He did want to take things further with Ye Xiyuan though. If things went well, he even had the thought of spending the rest of his life with her.
However, he would not go against his family for Ye Xiyuan. Compared to Ye Xiyuan, the power of the family was more important to him. Therefore, he wanted to take things slowly.
Ye Xiyuan didn’t know what Nangong Xuyao was thinking at the moment. She was a little annoyed, but she still changed the topic. “By the way, Brother Nangong, the Huangfu family came just now, right? Why aren’t you with them?”
She didn’t know much about the Huangfu family. The Ye family was not qualified to mingle with the four major families. If she hadn’t saved Nangong Xuyao, she wouldn’t have had the right to be associated with the Nangong family..
