“So, are you planning to admit defeat now?” Huangfu Ruiling directly inquired. “In that case, I’ve won our bet.”
“No.” Ye Lengan shook her head. “l just feel like I can’t win, but as long as
Huangfu Ruixiang isn’t married, I won’t admit defeat.”
This was her final bit of stubbornness. Anyway, she didn’t want to make it too easy for Huangfu Ruiling to win.
“Alright then!” Huangfu Ruiling nodded. “As long as you’re happy.”
“Let’s not talk about this anymore.” Ye Lengan smiled and shook her head.
Then, she continued, “There’s still about a month and a half before the Family
Competition in the Hidden World begins. When should we go to the Hidden World?”
“In another month!” Huangfu Ruiling thought for a while and said, “It’s just right, with half a month left. You can also familiarize yourself with the Hidden World.’
“Alright.” Ye Lengan nodded. Then, as if she had thought of something, she smiled mischievously and said, “Speaking of the Hidden World, did Ye Wanwan not report after she returned?”
“I’m not sure.” Huangfu Ruiling shook his head. “These minor matters are usually handled by the Grand Elder. If there’s nothing major, he won’t easily disturb me.’
He was quite content with this arrangement. The Grand Elder knew his personality well, so as long as it wasn’t a significant issue, he would handle it without bothering him.
“It seems that even though you’re not in the Hidden World, your influence over the Huangfu family is quite strong!” Ye Lengan marveled. “They are indeed very loyal to you!’
“That’s because I have the strength,” Huangfu Ruiling asserted without modesty.
However, what he said was undeniably true. In the Hidden World, strength was paramount. If one possessed enough strength, others would submit. Though simple and direct, it was remarkably effective.
After hearing Huangfu Ruiling’s words, Ye Lengan couldn’t help but burst into laughter.
“There’s one more thing,” Huangfu Ruiling suddenly mentioned. “l intended to tell you two days ago, but I forgot due to some delay. It’s about the bracelet Pang Tingting gave you. The gemstones on it are indeed ordinary, but the main body of the chain is not made of ordinary metal.”
“Isn’t it platinum?” Ye Lengan was surprised. “It looks a lot like platinum.”
“It’s not platinum.” Huangfu Ruiling shook his head. “That metal is quite special; it resembles platinum but is a type of ore.”
“Ore?” Ye Lengan couldn’t help but furrow her brow. “How come I’ve never seen this kind of ore before?
“It’s unique to the Hidden World,” Huangfu Ruiling explained. “Although this ore isn’t rare in the Hidden World, it’s mostly used for refining. Generally, it’s seldom employed in jewelry making. Moreover, using this ore for jewelry requires intricate craftsmanship.”
“So, not many people can craft a bracelet with this material, right?” Ye Leng’an’s eyes brightened. “If that’s the case, it shouldn’t be too difficult to find the owner of this bracelet, right?”
Although she didn’t hold any particular expectations for her background, she still wanted to know where she came from and why she was abandoned.
“It’s still under investigation,” Huangfu Ruiling replied. “However, I believe there should be clues soon.
Ye Lengan nodded. “And the engraved on the bracelet. I think it should be an abbreviation for someone’s name,’
“I’m also exploring that avenue.” Huangfu Ruiling nodded, reassuring her, “Don’t worry! Trust me; we’ll find out soon enough.”
“Let nature take its course,” Ye Lengan wasn’t particularly concerned. “l just want to know the truth. Honestly, I don’t have much hope or desire for my parents and family. It’s probably because I’ve been through too much time or experienced too many things.”
Looking at Ye Leng’an’s expression, Huangfu Ruiling felt a pang of sympathy. He reached out and held Ye Leng’an’s hand, softly saying, ‘You still have me. I will always be by your side.”
Observing Huangfu Ruilings demeanor, Ye Lengan found it amusing. She shook her head and said, “What are you doing?! Actually, I really don’t have much feeling for my family, so I don’t care. You don’t need to comfort me. I genuinely don’t feel sad at all..”
