Chapter 859: He Sneaked in
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
“I really didn’t expect Zhong Yating’s actions to be exposed at this time,” Ye Leng’an remarked after taking a sip of soup and setting down her bowl. “I wonder who leaked this information.”
“It was Li Yiran,” Huangfu Ruiling replied directly. “Li Yiran was the one who exposed it.”
After recalling Li Yiran’s recent behavior, Ye Leng’an had a moment of clarity. “But how could Li Yiran have known about this? She couldn’t possibly have investigated these matters.”
Li Yiran was indeed quite cunning but evidently lacked such capabilities. After all, she was just an ordinary person and couldn’t access information from the Hidden World.
“Li Yi!” Huangfu Ruiling stated plainly. “Li Yi helped her uncover it.”
“Li Yi?” Ye Leng’an was momentarily surprised upon hearing this name. “He’s truly devoted! Now that Li Yiran has a child, his continued presence by her side shows remarkable loyalty.”
Then, she turned to Huangfu Ruiling and asked, “So, can Li Yi still freely enter and exit the Hidden World? I remember he’s no longer part of the Li generation.”
The members of the Li generation of the Huangfu family were under Huangfu Ruiling’s direct jurisdiction and did not need to obey orders from other family members.
Given the privileged status of the Li generation within the Huangfu family, many aspired to join, despite the stringent requirements.
As they were under Huangfu Ruiling’s direct jurisdiction, the members of the Li generation were all capable of cultivation and could freely enter the Hidden World. Naturally, they were also aware of Huangfu Ruiling’s ident.i.ties in both the mortal and hidden worlds.
Li Yi was once the leader of the Li generation, the captain, so to speak. However, he had long been expelled from the Li generation. Although he still bore the surname Li, he had severed all ties with the Li generation.
Since Li Yi was expelled from the Li generation, how could he still come and go as he pleased?
“He sneaked in,” Huangfu Ruiling explained. “Otherwise, according to protocol, he wouldn’t have such freedom.”
People from the Hidden World couldn’t freely enter the mortal world, and vice versa. This was a strict rule of the Enforcement Team. Going in and out between the Hidden World and the mortal world was akin to traveling abroad in the mortal world, except it was not as straightforward.
As for Li Yi, it was apparent that he sneaked in. Even though he was no longer a member of the Li generation, his cultivation remained, so sneaking in and out of the Hidden World wasn’t a difficult task for him.
Ye Leng’an nodded in understanding. Then, she blinked, as if a thought had suddenly occurred to her, and asked, “By the way, Ling, since Li Yi used to belong to the Li generation, he knows that you’re the leader of the Enforcement Team. Now that he’s no longer part of the Li generation, might he reveal your ident.i.ty?”
If the Hidden World learned that Huangfu Ruiling, the head of the Huangfu family, was also the leader of the Enforcement Team, it would cause a stir.
“He wouldn’t dare,” Huangfu Ruiling stated calmly, devoid of worry. “If he wants to continue living, he won’t dare to disclose anything.”
Thus, he was never concerned about this possibility.
“You never know!” Ye Leng’an countered, despite Huangfu Ruiling’s confidence. “Perhaps one day, he’ll feel he’s lived long enough and has nothing more to lose. Then, he might expose your ident.i.ty!”
Huangfu Ruiling’s expression remained unchanged. He set down his chopsticks and continued, “He wouldn’t dare. Even if he’s tired of living, he surely still cares about someone in this world. He wouldn’t risk their safety.”
After hearing his words, Ye Leng’an nodded in agreement and gave him a thumbs up. “Alright! I admire your confidence.”
After dinner, they didn’t continue their outing but returned home. Considering the commotion at the ancestral mansion earlier, it was best to retire early and rest.
The next day, Huangfu Ruiling had intended to stay home, but something arose in the Hidden World that required his attention. Although he didn’t need to physically return, he had to coordinate with the Hidden World’s Enforcement Team to resolve the issue.
Since Ye Leng’an couldn’t a.s.sist, she decided to go for a stroll.
Despite being the third day of the new year, the mall remained bustling with activity.
People nowadays didn’t confine themselves to their homes during the New Year. Especially the younger generation, they enjoyed going out to socialize.
Ye Leng’an wandered through the mall without any particular purpose.
However, upon reaching a luxury clothing store, she noticed an altercation unfolding inside between a customer and a salesperson.
Such incidents were rare in luxury stores, as customers usually had sufficient financial means and salespeople were adept at handling them. Consequently, salespeople rarely clashed with customers.
Ye Leng’an decided not to intervene, as the matter didn’t concern her. She turned to leave and continued her shopping elsewhere.
Yet, as she turned, a familiar voice called out to her, even addressing her by name.
“Ye Leng’an, wait!”
Startled, Ye Leng’an turned back to see that the person involved in the altercation was none other than Zhou Cui’an.
Seeing Zhou Cui’an there surprised Ye Leng’an. While she had seen Zhou Cui’an buy branded clothes before, she never expected her to be in a luxury store.
It wasn’t that Ye Leng’an looked down on Zhou Cui’an, but she didn’t think Zhou Cui’an could afford clothes from such a store given her financial situation.
