Zhongyu Liuying remained silent. Clearly, she still had to wait for her husband to make the decision on this matter. Otherwise, her husband would likely blame her if something went wrong later.
“Forget it. I’ll go to the company tomorrow and have a good talk with that unfilial son.” Huangfu Jingzhang finally decided. “As long as we analyze the pros and cons with him, he will definitely make the most appropriate choice.”
Zhongyu Liuying nodded. Looking at Huangfu Jingzhang, she asked, “What about Ye Lengan? Should 1 go see her?”
“Yes!” Huangfu Jingzhang nodded. “Tomorrow, we’ll split up and proceed simultaneously. I’ll look for that unfilial son to analyze the pros and cons. You go see Ye Lengan and make things clear, so she understands her own importance. If that still doesn’t work, we’ll think of other ways!’
“Alright,” Zhong Yu Liuying replied. “I’ll go see Ye Leng’an tomorrow and definitely make her back down.”
Listening to his parents’ conversation, Huangfu Ruixiang felt somewhat uneasy. For some reason, he had a sense of foreboding, as if things were about to spiral out of control.
But at this point, he had no way to interfere. Moreover, even if he expressed his feelings now, his parents would not change their decision. They felt deep down that Ye Lengan was not worthy of the Huangfu family.
Just as Huangfu Ruiling and Ye Lengan were getting intimate, they suddenly heard a loud noise not far away, followed by a commotion. The two looked at each other and frowned simultaneously.
Huangfu Ruiling had Li San push him over, then headed in the direction of the noise with Ye Lengan.
Only when they arrived did they find out what had happened.
At that moment, Murong Yanshu was lying on the ground, while Ye Xiyuan shielded her protectively. Ye Xiyuan’s exposed arm was dripping with blood.
On the ground beside them, the chandelier had shattered into pieces.
The situation was obvious now. The chandelier had suddenly broken and fallen, nearly striking Murong Yanshu. Ye Xiyuan seemed to have saved her.
“Mother, Xiyuan, are you alright?”
After coming to his senses, Nangong Xuyao rushed forward. After confirming his mother was unharmed, he saw that Ye Xiyuan’s arm was covered in gashes from the chandelier shards. The wounds varied in severity, all bleeding, making her arm look gruesome.
“Xiyuan, your arm is injured,” Murong Yanshu said, also recovering her wits. Seeing Ye Xiyuan hugging her, her attitude changed drastically. She glanced at Nangong Xuyao and quickly ordered, “Xuyao, what are you still standing there for? Hurry and call the doctor!”
She didn’t understand what had happened.
Just now, her son Nangong Xuyao had brought Ye Xiyuan to see her again. She smiled and gave a few perfunctory words, then planned to leave. Then she heard Ye Xiyuan exclaim, “Watch out!” The next thing she knew, she was pushed to the ground by Ye Xiyuan. The chandelier then crashed down with a loud bang.
She never imagined that at such a critical moment, Ye Xiyuan would choose to save her so selflessly. For a moment, she wondered if she had been biased against Ye Xiyuan.
Moreover, to be honest, she was a little touched. After all, her attitude toward Ye Xiyuan tonight had been more polite than intimate. However, when danger came, Ye Xiyuan probably reacted instinctively without thinking and saved her.
Hearing Murong Yanshu’s instructions, Nangong Xuyao immediately went to call the doctor.
Soon, the doctor rushed over. Ye Xiyuan was also sent upstairs for treatment, with Nangong Xuyao following naturally.
As for Murong Yanshu, she stayed behind to see off the guests. After such a big incident, the banquet definitely could not go on. The tactful guests all took their leave.
Huangfu Ruiling and Ye Lengan did not pry and also left.
In the car.
“Ruiling, do you think tonight’s accident was really an accident?” Ye Lengan frowned, a trace of suspicion flashing in her eyes. “Although Ye Xiyuan is injured, she has definitely benefited the most from tonight’s accident..”
