After the events that unfolded tonight, Master Zhongyu, who had been compelled to leave prematurely, was already in a foul mood. Seeing Zhongyu Jiarui’s appearance now only added to his irritation. Without hesitation, he grabbed the teacup from the table and hurled it at Zhongyu Jiarui.

“Ah!”

Startled by the sudden attack, Zhongyu Jiarui let out a shriek. But upon realizing that it was her father who threw the teacup, she fell silent immediately.

“Father, I…” Zhongyu Jiarui struggled to speak, her voice trembling, “I didn’t mean to, I just…”

“You dare to cry out in pain here!” Master Zhongyu’s gaze turned icy as he looked at Zhongyu Jiarui, his voice chilling. “Do you even realize what you’ve done today? Because of you, our Zhongyu family is now practically at odds with the Huangfu family. You’ve created a powerful enemy for our family. Are you pleased with yourself?”

His cold words drained Zhongyu Jiarui’s face of color. She opened her mouth to speak but could only offer a feeble defense. “I was misled by Wanwan, Father. It wasn’t my intention…”

“Your intentions are irrelevant. What matters are the consequences.” Master Zhongyu’s tone lacked any warmth as he regarded Zhongyu Jiarui, more like an enemy than his own daughter. “Your mind is simple, I don’t blame you for that. But you lack self-awareness. I can’t help but wonder how someone as foolish as you came into being.”

If he had known Zhongyu Jiarui was such a fool, he would have drowned her at birth to avoid being deceived by her foolishness.

As Zhongyu Jiarui faced her father’s biting words, she could not muster a single word in retort, only enduring his reproach.

Yet, her suffering wasn’t solely mental; there was physical pain as well. The throbbing ache in her wrist served as a reminder of her injury, the prospect of lingering repercussions gnawing at her mind.

Her utmost desire now was swift treatment to alleviate her physical agony.

In this moment, she couldn’t help but harbor resentment towards Ye Wanwan. Tonight’s events were orchestrated by her, and Zhongyu Jiarui realized she was merely a pawn in Ye Wanwan’s game. She hadn’t anticipated such exploitation from someone she had treated so kindly. Worse still, she suffered an injury because of Ye Wanwan’s actions, yet received no sympathy in return.

As Ye Wanwan, now injured, was taken back, she was surely being showered with concern. Yet here Zhongyu Jiarui stood, enduring pain and blame unjustly.

Ye Wanwan had no inkling of Zhongyu Jiarui’s animosity towards her. Even if she did, it would be futile. Since collapsing at the banquet, she remained in a state of unconsciousness.

Upon returning to the Ye residence, chaos ensued once more. Who could have foreseen returning from a banquet unconscious and gravely injured?

Finally, when Ye Wanwan’s condition stabilized, Ye Hongxuan and Lian Mengzhu breathed a sigh of relief. Subsequently, Murong Xingrui took his leave.

His departure didn’t prompt further inquiry, a relief for Ye Hongxuan and Lian Mengzhu, who struggled to explain. Yet, what followed wasn’t relief but a heavier burden. Ahead lay a more daunting challenge.

Observing Ye Hongxuan’s grave expression, Lian Mengzhu couldn’t help but ask, “Hongxuan, do you think we should explain to Father?”

Ye Hongxuan sighed deeply. “This matter has escalated too much. Even if we remain silent, Father will soon learn of it. Moreover, news of Leng’an and Wanwan’s background may spread in the Hidden World soon. We must seek Father’s counsel on this.”

“But Wanwan…” Lian Mengzhu’s worry was palpable. “Father might blame her!”

“Today’s incident was caused by Wanwan.”

Ye Hongxuan’s tone carried a hint of anger. “If she hadn’t acted as she did, she wouldn’t be in this predicament. She’s solely responsible for the consequences she faces.”

Though concerned about Ye Wanwan’s injuries, he was infuriated by her behavior. Especially since tonight’s events further distanced them from their biological daughter.

“But Wanwan is already in this state.” Lian Mengzhu’s anger was tempered by concern. “If Father punishes her again, I fear she won’t bear it.”

“Father knows how to handle this. We needn’t interfere.” Ye Hongxuan shook his head, then continued, “Rest early. I’ll inform Father of tonight’s events. It’s best he hears it from us, or his anger may only worsen if he hears it elsewhere.”

Lian Mengzhu wanted Ye Hongxuan to speak up for Ye Wanwan. However, considering their father’s disposition, she withheld her words.

After years of marriage, Ye Hongxuan understood Lian Mengzhu’s intentions. But in this matter, there was little they could say.

Moments later, Ye Hongxuan recounted the banquet events in full detail, devoid of personal bias, to his father.

After listening, Ye Yikun’s expression remained unchanged, his inscrutable gaze revealing nothing of his thoughts.

Ye Hongxuan stood quietly, his heart filled with unease. Despite his father’s lack of anger, the uncertainty was more unnerving. Unable to anticipate his father’s reaction, he felt increasingly anxious.

Yet, he dared not rush his father, nor did he dare to speak on Ye Wanwan’s behalf. Such actions could backfire.
