“Zhongyu family, well done.” Huangfu Ruiling’s icy gaze settled on Zhongyu Lingshan. “Zhongyu Lingshan, I will personally demand an explanation from your family head for this matter.”

Zhongyu Lingshan trembled all over, disregarding even the pain in her body as she hastily spoke, “No, you can’t tell Father about this.”

If her father found out about her enmity with the Huangfu family, he would surely withdraw his support. Not only that, he would likely pressure her to expedite her engagement. Then, she would truly have no opportunities left.

Moreover, she would surely face punishment from her family.

“Since you’ve done such a thing, you must be prepared to face the consequences.” Huangfu Ruiling raised his head, his eyes devoid of warmth as he looked at Zhongyu Lingshan. “As for the rest, it’s none of my concern.”

Zhongyu Lingshan’s expression turned ashen, unable to alleviate the despair in her heart even amidst the physical torment.

“Well…” Zhongyu Liuying looked troubled as she glanced toward Huangfu Ruiling, then pleaded, “Ruiling, look, Lingshan is already suffering so much. Shouldn’t we let it go? Mercy should be shown!”

Her plea was not solely for Zhongyu Lingshan, but also for the Zhongyu family in the mortal world.

Now, several disciples of the Zhongyu family were in the Hidden World. With Zhongyu Lingshan’s current situation, if this incident caused anger among the Hidden World’s Zhongyu family, those disciples might be recalled. They were newly awakened to their cultivation talents, and if they were recalled, it would cut off their path of cultivation. They were all the hope of the family. If they were lost like this, the Zhongyu family would truly lose all connection with the Hidden World in the future.

Among the four major families in the capital, the Zhongyu family was already declining. If this continued, they might one day be expelled from the ranks and cease to be one of the four major families.

Although she married into the Huangfu family, the blood of the Zhongyu family still flowed in her veins. She couldn’t bear to watch her maternal family decline like this.

Huangfu Ruiling didn’t even spare a glance at Zhongyu Liuying, as if he hadn’t heard her.

Then, under everyone’s gaze, he called out, “Li San!”

Almost immediately, Li San appeared in the dining room. He came to Huangfu Ruiling and bowed respectfully. “Master!”

Huangfu Ruiling immediately instructed, “Take Zhongyu Lingshan back and hand her over to the Zhongyu family. Then, inform Master Zhongyu about Zhongyu Lingshan’s attempt to poison our matriarch and demand an explanation. Otherwise, the two families will truly become enemies.”

As soon as he said that, everyone in the dining room, except for Ye Leng’an, had a drastic change in expression.

Especially Zhongyu Lingshan. Tears filled her misty eyes as she looked at Huangfu Ruiling with resentment. “Master Huangfu, must you be so ruthless? You clearly know that I’ve always admired you!”

With things having come to this, she had nothing left to hide. She might as well take this opportunity to express all her feelings. Perhaps, in the end, she could move Huangfu Ruiling and secure a place for herself.

Ye Leng’an couldn’t help but be speechless, sighing inwardly. Zhongyu Lingshan was truly going all out! Just a moment ago, she had been so righteous, denying any improper intentions, and now she was about to confess her feelings. Indeed, women were fickle!

On the other hand, seeing Zhongyu Lingshan’s pitiful appearance and heartfelt confession, the others couldn’t help but feel a little moved.

Huangfu Jingxian looked at Huangfu Ruiling and couldn’t help but plead, “Ruiling, actually, Miss Zhongyu has already been punished. Why don’t we just let it go?”

“Exactly!” Nangong Xiyu couldn’t help adding, “She’s just a girl. It’s quite pitiful. Besides, she only likes you, so she made a mistake. Please forgive her this once! Even if you don’t like her, there’s no need to be so heartless.”

Looking at the girl who was still suffering from physical torture, Nangong Xiyu couldn’t help but speak up a bit more.

“Second Uncle, Second Aunt, you’re misplacing your priorities!”

Huangfu Ruiling didn’t say anything, but Ye Leng’an tilted her head and smiled. Then, she said, “Zhongyu Lingshan is not pitiful at all. The reason she ended up like this was entirely her own doing and has nothing to do with anyone else. Also…”

At this point, her gaze fell on Nangong Xiyu. “Second Aunt, Zhongyu Lingshan liking Huangfu Ruiling is not a reason for her to poison me. According to your logic, would it be acceptable for those who like Second Uncle to harm you?”

These words made Nangong Xiyu’s face alternate between red and white. She felt embarrassed, but upon reflection, she felt ashamed. Ye Leng’an was right. She had acted on her emotions when she saw Zhongyu Lingshan’s sorry state.

The women present dared not plead for Zhongyu Lingshan anymore. If they did, it would imply that they agreed with her words.

Then, if other women really liked their men and harmed them, they would deserve it.

Li San quickly took Zhongyu Lingshan away. Everyone present knew where he was taking her, so there was no need to worry about her safety.

Soon, everyone resumed eating.

However, after such an incident, everyone’s mood was affected to some extent, so no one was really in the mood for merrymaking.

Only Huangfu Ruiling and Ye Leng’an were completely unaffected, eating and drinking leisurely.

Huangfu Jingzhang looked at the two of them and felt even more heartache. Nevertheless, he had to pretend that nothing had happened and finish the meal with everyone.

After the meal, Huangfu Jingxian and his family immediately bid farewell.

Then, after Huangfu Ruiling and Ye Leng’an left, Huangfu Jingzhang could no longer contain himself and swept everything in front of him to the ground.
