Chapter 851: Continue Watching the Movie

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation  Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Huangfu Ruiling shrugged and offered no comment. Instead, he waved the movie ticket in his hand and persisted, “Let’s not worry about others’ affairs. The movie is about to begin. Don’t we still need to buy popcorn? Let’s make the most of our time!”

“Huh?” Ye Leng’an was taken aback by Huangfu Ruiling’s statement. “You still want to watch the movie?”

She had thought their movie plans might be dashed for the day. Yet, despite Li San’s call, Huangfu Ruiling had decided to proceed with the movie.

“Why not?” Huangfu Ruiling calmly responded, countering with a question. “If they indeed intend to divorce, they can do so even without our presence. And if they have no such plans, our delayed return won’t affect anything, right?”

Overall, he wouldn’t alter his plans for these individuals. Especially now, as he was on a date with Ye Leng’an! To him, spending time with her was far more important than these matters.

Ye Leng’an found his logic surprisingly reasonable.

So, the two of them leisurely bought popcorn and entered the cinema. They planned to return to the Huangfu family after the movie ended.

Of course, before entering the cinema, they both conscientiously turned off their phones.

Meanwhile, after Huangfu Jingzhang’s call to Li San, he left the study with Zhongyu Liuying, returning to the living room.

The living room was now quite crowded.

Huangfu Jingxian and Nangong Xiyu sat on one side, observing Zhong Yating kneeling on the floor, their expressions neutral. Clearly, though present, they could only serve as elders and witnesses, refraining from expressing opinions.

As for their son, Huangfu Ruihang, his presence would have been entirely inappropriate at this time. After all, his appearance would have turned the occasion into a spectacle.

On the other side, Huangfu Ruixiang sat on the sofa, his face grim as he stared at Zhong Yating on her knees, devoid of any sympathy, only disgust and resentment.

Beside him, Li Yiran whispered words of reassurance, seemingly trying to calm him. Yet, whenever she glanced at Zhong Yating, her eyes betrayed sarcasm and satisfaction.

She had meticulously planned for days before finally exposing Zhong Yating’s true nature today. Previously, Zhong Yating had looked down on her as Huangfu Ruixiang’s wife.

Now, the tables had turned. Now, she sat in the position of power, while Zhong Yating knelt like a dog, begging for mercy.

If not for the inappropriate setting, she would have burst into laughter to express her inner excitement.

Now that Zhong Yating’s true colors were revealed, there was no way she could continue being Huangfu Ruixiang’s wife. As for Zhong Yating’s willingness to divorce, it wasn’t even a consideration.

Zhong Yating had gambled with Huangfu Ruixiang’s life. Both Huangfu Jingzhang and Zhongyu Liuying could never tolerate such a daughter-in-law.

Huangfu Jingzhang and Zhongyu Liuying also entered the living room and took their seats. They didn’t spare a glance at Zhong Yating, as if looking at her would soil their eyes.

“Brother, when will Ruiling be back?” Huangfu Jingxian broke the silence in the living room, voicing the question on everyone’s mind. “We must wait for him to return before resolving this matter.”

If it were the marriage of a branch member of the Huangfu family, they could decide on their own. However, Huangfu Ruixiang was directly involved. He was not only a direct descendant but also the brother of the current family head. Therefore, it was only appropriate for Huangfu Ruiling to make the final decision.

Hearing Huangfu Jingxian’s question, Huangfu Jingzhang couldn’t help but remember his recent call that was abruptly ended. His mood soured further. “I’ve informed him. He’ll be back soon.”

With a stern glare at Zhong Yating, who knelt there, he bluntly stated, “As for this matter, what other outcome can there be besides divorce?”

“Indeed,” Zhongyu Liuying echoed, their faces contorted with anger. “Zhong Yating is heartless. To commit such an act…she doesn’t value Ruixiang’s life at all. If something were to happen again, who’s to say she wouldn’t take Ruixiang’s life over it! In any case, I’ll never allow such a woman to remain by Ruixiang’s side.”

Huangfu Jingxian and Nangong Xiyu exchanged glances, withholding their opinions. However, deep down, they concurred with the sentiment.

If a woman nearly caused their son to lose his life due to a so-called debt of gratitude, they would never tolerate such malice.

They hadn’t expected Zhong Yating to possess such a cold heart beneath her seemingly delicate exterior.

Truly, as the saying goes, “Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned”!

Meanwhile, Zhong Yating, kneeling on the ground, had long lost sensation in her legs. However, she dared not move.

Her heart was filled with apprehension as she pondered the uncertain future ahead. She never imagined Li Yiran would uncover her past actions.

She couldn’t deny it, nor could she afford to. Her deeds left a trail, easily traceable. She managed to deceive everyone before because she was severely injured at the time, with Huangfu Ruixiang constantly by her side. She exploited his guilt to halt the investigation.

She never expected Li Yiran to uncover the truth and expose her publicly, catching her off guard. She didn’t even have time to devise a plan.

She didn’t know what lay ahead, but she had made too many sacrifices to marry Huangfu Ruixiang. She had suffered severe injuries and nearly lost her life. She wouldn’t let anything jeopardize what she had now.
