Chapter 604: Invitation 4.

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation  Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Although she spoke of fate, her tone dripped with disdain. Initially, she believed Ye An’an hailed from some obscure corner of the Hidden World, only to discover she originated from the mortal world, a realm she considered almost devoid of spiritual energy and worse than the backwaters of the

Hidden World.

In her view, Ye An’an must have employed numerous schemes to ascend to the position of the Huangfu family head’s fiancé.

Ye Lengan wasn’t foolish; she discerned the hidden implications in Ye

Wanwan’s words. Nevertheless, she remained unfazed and nodded solemnly. “l also believe we share some remarkable fate.’

She dismissed Ye Wanwan’s sarcastic remarks and saw no need to divulge details of her relationship with Huangfu Ruiling to an outsider.

“Wanwan, mind your words.” Lian Mengzhu wasn’t naive, especially understanding Ye Wanwan well. She naturally grasped the subtleties behind Ye Wanwan’s words.

Though Ye Wanwan was disgruntled, she refrained from further comments and simply turned her head away, choosing to ignore the situation.

Observing Ye Wanwan’s childish behavior, Lian Mengzhu couldn’t help but sigh inwardly. It appeared that this confinement was not very effective against Wanwan.

The reason for inviting Ye An’an to lunch today wasn’t to create conflicts. The Ye family and the Huangfu family had already clashed during the auction, which was undesirable, particularly for the Ye family.

Therefore, upon seeing Ye An’an today, she had taken the initiative to greet her, aiming to resolve their past conflicts. However, Wanwan maintained a stern face throughout, showing even more rudeness now. How was this fostering good relations? It seemed like she feared their conflicts were not deep enough!

If the timing were different, she would have liked to reprimand her. Yet, seeing Wanwan’s stubborn demeanor, she felt a pang of reluctance. Ultimately, Wanwan’s current disposition was a consequence of her and her husband’s excessive indulgence.

Wanwan was their only daughter, and naturally, they showered her with affection. Unexpectedly, this led to flaws in Wanwan’s character. It seemed they would have to discipline her more rigorously in the future.

Setting aside thoughts of Ye Wanwan, Lian Mengzhu turned to Ye Lengan with a smile and continued, “Speaking of which, it seems we have a connection with Miss Ye! We all share the surname Ye. Miss Ye hasn’t been in the Hidden World for long, so you might not be aware that, other than the Ye family, few others bear the surname Ye in the Hidden World. Perhaps, thousands of years ago, we were even part of the same family!”

“Oh, really?” Ye Leng’an’s eyes betrayed a hint of doubt. “l hadn’t thought of that. In the mortal world, Ye is just a common surname. I didn’t expect it to be so rare in the Hidden World!”

Lian Mengzhu nodded, then smiled, asking, “Miss Ye, you look quite young!

How old are you?”

“Seventeen,” Ye Lengan responded indifferently.

“So young!” Lian Mengzhu expressed surprise upon hearing Ye Leng’an’s age.

“That means you and Wanwan are of the same age! Such a fateful encounter!”

She hadn’t anticipated that, according to mortal world standards, the girl before her wasn’t even an adult. She had assumed the other merely looked young but hadn’t expected her to be this youthful.

Even Ye Wanwan couldn’t help but glance at Ye Lengan upon learning her age,

She realized not only did Ye An’an’s name resemble that wench Ye Leng’an’s, but they were also the same age. Could they be the same person?

After the fallout with Huangfu Ruiling, she had investigated that b*tch, Ye Lengan. Ye Lengan turned out to be a fake heiress, already cast aside by her adoptive parents. Perhaps, because she had attached herself to Huangfu Ruiling, she managed to maintain a comfortable life.

The more she looked at Ye An’an, the more she felt Ye An’an resembled Ye Lengan, likely due to their similar ages.

However, on second thought, she deemed it impossible. Ye Lengan was just an ordinary person with no qualifications to enter the Hidden World. Just passing through the Enforcement Team checkpoint was an insurmountable challenge.

One must understand that the Enforcement Team’s status in the Hidden World was equivalent to the mortal world’s government. Only practitioners registered with the Enforcement Team could access the Hidden World. Otherwise, trespassing would lead to certain death.

Moreover, Ye An’an was Huangfu Lings fiancée. Huangfu Ling was the head of the Huangfu family, not Huangfu Ruiling, who sat in a wheelchair.

So, she must be overthinking things. Yes, that must be the case.

Ye Wanwan continued to convince herself, but the seeds of doubt and suspicion had already been planted in her heart, awaiting the right time to sprout and take root.

“Is that so?” Ye Leng’an’s expression remained indifferent despite Lian Mengzhu’s evidently friendly words. “Then it truly is my honor.”

“However, despite being the same age as Wanwan, Miss Ye handles yourself much better than Wanwan.” Lian Mengzhu smiled and shook her head. “It’s partly our fault for spoiling her, preventing her from growing up.”

“Not growing up might be a form of happiness!” Ye Lengan raised an eyebrow, smiling. “Many people desire this but lack the conditions.”

“Hehe, perhaps it’s a sweet burden!” Lian Mengzhu looked at Ye Wanwan, throwing a tantrum, her eyes gleaming with a mothers gentle affection.

“She’s our only daughter, so we’ve always spoiled her.”

Though a bit dissatisfied with Ye Wanwan’s temperament, she also intended to toughen her up. However, as the only daughter of her and her husband, she naturally harbored deep affection for her.

Upon hearing Lian Mengzhu’s words, Ye Wanwan couldn’t help but smile sweetly. Then, she shot Ye Lengan a provocative and triumphant look.

Facing this situation, even though it had nothing to do with her, Ye Lengan didn’t know why, but a sudden pang of pain flashed through her heart. There was even a faint, indescribable sense of melancholy..
