The farce came to an end, concluding with Huangfu Jingzhang and Zhongyu Liuying retreating.

Li Yiran, not qualified to enter the ancestral hall, lingered outside unwillingly.

Quietly, she stood there, gazing up at the ancestral hall. Unaware of the situation inside, her heart brimmed with resentment.

She had anticipated a grand entrance but ended up alone outside, her son unrecognized by the Huangfu family.

Recalling Zhong Yating’s provoking gaze, she felt an urge to confront her.

She realized that despite Zhongyu Liuying’s efforts to elevate her status, a difference remained between her and Zhong Yating, starkly evident in today’s events.

While Zhong Yating could stand proudly by Huangfu Ruixiang’s side, she was left outside, even her son unacknowledged.

This fueled her ambition to surpass Zhong Yating and to be recognized by the Huangfu family.

She not only wanted her son to be listed in the Huangfu family genealogy but also insisted on having her own name recorded in the Huangfu family genealogy.

Unbeknownst to her, a strong ambition took root in her heart.

Despite some twists, the sacrificial ceremony proceeded smoothly, not delaying the auspicious time.

Afterward, Huangfu Ruiling added Ye Leng’an’s name to the genealogy.

Seeing this situation, Huangfu Jingzhang still wanted to intervene, using the reason that the two were not yet married to stop them. However, when he looked up and met Huangfu Ruiling’s icy gaze, the half-step he had already taken forward gradually retreated.

As the ceremony ended, direct descendants returned to the hall while collateral relatives departed, planning to reunite for dinner on New Year’s Eve.

As for Li Yiran, she had already returned to the hall well before the conclusion of the sacrificial ceremony. At this moment, her expression was entirely natural, devoid of any resentment. In fact, her countenance appeared remarkably serene, as if the preceding events had never occurred at all.

Upon entering the main hall at that moment, Ye Leng’an’s eyes flickered with a hint of surprise when she saw Li Yiran sitting there.

She hadn’t expected Li Yiran’s adaptability to be quite good! Just moments ago, she had suffered such a huge humiliation, yet now she appeared completely unaffected. However, Ye Leng’an couldn’t shake the feeling that something was changing about Li Yiran.

The sacrificial ceremony had ended, and Huangfu Ruiling had no intention of staying longer. He rose to leave with Ye Leng’an.

As soon as Huangfu Ruiling got up, Zhongyu Liuying immediately spoke up, “Ruiling, since you’re already here, it’s almost lunchtime. Why don’t you and Leng’an stay and have lunch before leaving?”

“Yes, yes!” Huangfu Ruixiang chimed in, “Brother, you’ve been absent during the New Year’s celebrations. Why don’t we have a meal together now?”

Huangfu Ruiling’s absence during the New Year at the ancestral mansion was something Huangfu Ruixiang had only learned upon his return. He had hoped to use these days to bond with Huangfu Ruiling.

During this period, he had been diligently cultivating for the upcoming family assessment. Huangfu Ruiling had already made it clear that if he failed, he would have to leave the Hidden World.

If he failed this time, he would have almost no chance of returning to the Huangfu family in the Hidden World. Despite his efforts in cultivation, he still lacked confidence in himself.

So, he had hoped to use this time to build a good relationship with Huangfu Ruiling. Perhaps, even if he failed the test, he could still stay with Huangfu Ruiling’s support.

However, to his surprise, even on such a significant day as the New Year, Huangfu Ruiling had no intention of staying at the ancestral mansion. So, he had to seize every opportunity to improve his relationship with Huangfu Ruiling. Perhaps there would still be a chance for things to turn around.

“No, we’ll leave first,” Huangfu Ruiling said coldly. “You all enjoy your meal.”

With that, he prepared to leave with Ye Leng’an.

Zhongyu Liuying stood up and blocked their way. She forced a smile and said, “Ruiling, we’re all family. Can’t you stay for a meal?”

As she spoke, there was a hint of pleading in her tone, as if she were just an ordinary mother who wanted to have a meal with her son.

Seeing Zhongyu Liuying in front of him, Ye Leng’an’s eyes flickered with doubt. She felt that Zhongyu Liuying seemed particularly eager for Huangfu Ruiling to stay for a meal, which seemed strange no matter how she looked at it.

The mother-son relationship between Zhongyu Liuying and Huangfu Ruiling was not so deep, perhaps just slightly better than strangers. However, Zhongyu Liuying now seemed to attach great importance to Huangfu Ruiling, which seemed odd.

Huangfu Ruiling frowned, preparing to object.

Before he could speak, Ye Leng’an tugged at his sleeve and said with a smile, “Since your mother has said so, why don’t we stay for a meal before leaving? After all, we need to eat too.”

Initially, Zhongyu Liuying was dissatisfied with Ye Leng’an’s interruption. However, upon hearing Ye Leng’an’s words, her eyes immediately lit up, and she seemed much happier.
