Chapter 131 Investigating Ye Leng'an
A moment later, Huangfu Ruiling, Ye Leng'an, and Zhong Yuyiran all took their seats at the dinner table.
Originally, Huangfu Ruiling didn't intend to let Zhong Yuyiran have dinner together, but Ye Leng'an said it didn't matter. Therefore, he did not specifically order. Otherwise, Zhong Yuyiran might not even have the chance to step into the main building at this moment.
After being seated, Zhong Yuyiran spoke first, "Miss Ye, I didn't expect you to come with Brother Huangfu. Are you here for business?"
"I have something to do, so I came here together." Ye Leng'an said lightly, "However, Miss Zhong Yu, your current body is not suitable for long-distance travel. What you need now is to rest in bed, which is good for your recovery."
She didn't care too much about Zhong Yuyiran, but she only said a few more words because the other party was her patient. As for whether the other party is willing to listen, it depends on the other party's wishes, she does not force it.
"I... I know, it's just that I have to come here this time. And, I think, here, I can also rest. And, here, my mood will be better. This is also conducive to my recovery, isn't it?"
When Zhong Yuyiran was speaking, she carefully glanced at Huangfu Ruiling. When she found that the other party didn't even look at her from the corner of her eyes, her eyes dimmed involuntarily.
Ye Leng'an smiled, but didn't speak.
Soon, everyone began to eat. However, the atmosphere seemed somewhat silent.
Huangfu Ruiling didn't like to talk. Ye Leng'an, on the other hand, seemed very at ease, as if he was in his own home, without any influence at all. On the other hand, Zhong Yuyiran seemed extremely uncomfortable, even when she was eating, she was absent-minded.
In fact, she is indeed uneasy at the moment. Because, this time she came to Paris, she did not inform Huangfu Ruiling at all. Moreover, after coming here, she also stayed in the name of Huangfu Ruiling.
When she saw Huangfu Ruiling coming, she was naturally happy. However, at the same time, they are also panicked, afraid that the other party will blame themselves. However, in the end Huangfu Ruiling didn't blame her, but it made her feel worse than blaming her. Because, in Huangfu Ruiling's eyes, she does not exist at all.
However, this is not what makes her most sad. What made her most sad was that Huangfu Ruiling didn't come here alone, he came here with Ye Leng'an.
Although there were only a few contacts, she could feel that Huangfu Ruiling was special to Ye Leng'an. She had never seen Huangfu Ruiling treat a girl like this. No, perhaps, he has never treated another person like this. Even his biological mother had never been treated like that.
In an atmosphere of silence, everyone finished their dinner.
Seeing that everyone was about to leave, Zhong Yuyiran quickly smiled and said, "Miss Ye, do you have any plans for the next few days?"
"Not yet." Ye Leng'an smiled and said, "I just came here, I want to take a good rest."
"Then if you want to go out, call me together!" Zhong Yuyi said with a smile, "My French is not bad, I can help you translate. Don't get me wrong, I don't mean to say that your French is not good, but I think you may not have—"
"No need." Ye Leng'an directly refused, "Thank you for your kindness."
Zhong Yuyiran didn't expect Ye Leng'an to refuse so simply, she smiled awkwardly, and then continued, "Is that so? By the way, Miss Ye, are you used to living here? If there's anything you're not used to, just say it, and Ford's butler will definitely make arrangements for it."
That natural appearance, as if she is the mistress of the house.
Huangfu Ruiling's eyes flashed a gloomy coldness, when he looked at Zhong Yuyiran, he was completely impatient.
However, it was obvious that Zhong Yuyiran didn't notice at all, and continued to talk to herself, "By the way, Miss Ye, where do you live? Why didn't I see you?"
Although she saw Ye Leng'an going upstairs with Huangfu Ruiling just now, she still didn't give up. She felt that maybe after she went back, Ford Butler made other arrangements for Ye Leng'an.
"I live on the second floor!" Ye Leng'an said naturally, "For convenience!"
"The second floor!" After hearing Ye Leng'an's answer, Zhong Yuyiran's face turned pale instantly, and even her lips trembled.
She couldn't believe her ears, the second floor was Huangfu Ruiling's exclusive territory. Even the owner and wife are not allowed to live on the second floor. Now Ye Leng'an lives in it. Does this mean that Huangfu Ruiling has allowed Ye Leng'an to enter his private realm?
Earlier, she could feel that Huangfu Ruiling was special to Ye Leng'an. However, it is not so simple now. The current Huangfu Ruiling seemed to have Ye Leng'an in his heart.
Then, does she still have a chance?
Thinking of this, Zhong Yuyiran felt her heart suddenly hurt so badly that she could hardly breathe.
"What's wrong?" Ye Leng'an was a little surprised by Zhong Yuyiran's reaction, "Is it strange to live on the second floor?"
Seeing Ye Leng'an's reaction, Zhong Yuyiran suddenly felt that her anger was about to rise. What she dreamed of and wanted, now Ye Leng'an can easily be delivered to her. Now, he is still pretending to be ignorant in front of her. Isn't this mocking her?
However, before she could say anything, she saw Huangfu Ruiling's cold gaze. There was a warning in that look, as if reminding her to speak carefully.
Suddenly, all the anger and injustice in her heart were extinguished at once.
She raised an ugly smile, tried to restrain her emotions, and said, "It's nothing special. I feel a little uncomfortable, so I'll go back and rest first."
After finishing speaking, Zhong Yuyi immediately stood up, and the chair behind her made a sharp sound because of such a sudden big movement. However, this did not hinder her at all. She left the dining room without looking back.
Looking at Zhong Yuyiran's hurried back, Ye Leng'an couldn't help frowning, "What's wrong with her?"
"Who knows?" Huangfu Ruiling said without any change in tone, "Is everything to your liking? If there is anything you want to eat, you can tell Butler Ford, and he will arrange it."
"It's all pretty good." Ye Leng'an replied with a smile, "I'm not a picky eater, and this chef's skills are really good, much better than that of my aunt."
One side is full of joy and harmony, but Zhong Yuyiran on the other side is full of worries. At this moment, she has returned to the guest building.
As soon as she entered the door, she couldn't help but slumped on the ground, her hands pressed tightly on her chest, her face was flushed red, and she seemed to be struggling even to breathe. The unstoppable tears kept falling down, adding a little more to that fairy-like face, which made me feel pity.
It is said that when Xizi holds her heart, a beauty is beautiful even if she is sick. The current Zhong Yuyiran is like this, as long as he is a man, seeing such a situation, he can't help but feel distressed, he wants to heal all the pain of the person in front of him, and he is willing to do anything for her.
Li Yi was like this. As soon as he saw Zhong Yuyiran's appearance, he immediately stepped forward, squatted down, and asked very anxiously, "Miss Yiran, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell? I'll call the doctor right now."
Miss Yiran was going to have dinner in the main building just now, but he actually felt it was wrong. However, Miss Yiran was very persistent, and he had no position to express objection, so he could only let her go.
Unexpectedly, it turned out to be like this now.
"I'm fine." Zhong Yuyi grabbed Li Yi who was going to call a doctor, tried her best to control the over-excited emotions in her heart, and said, "Help me to the sofa and sit down first!"
Whether it was because of running this short distance, or because of her emotional fluctuations, she felt as if the world was spinning at this moment. However, even so, she would not let Li Yi call for a doctor. Because she just came back from the main building, if she called the doctor immediately, it would only cause unnecessary gossip.
The most important thing is that if Huangfu Ruiling found out, he would definitely be more disgusted with her. So, she absolutely can't do that. Even if she knew that Huangfu Ruiling didn't have her in her heart, she didn't want to make her Huangfu Ruiling's impression worse.
"But, Miss Yiran, your complexion looks very bad." Li Yi's face was full of concern, "I'm really worried about you—"
"My own body, I know it myself, I'm fine." Zhong Yuyiran took a deep breath, and said firmly, "Maybe I just walked too fast, and I'll be fine after a little rest."
Li Yi still wanted to say something, but after opening his mouth, he still didn't say anything.
Of course, he also wanted to ask what happened in the main building just now. However, he cannot ask because he is not qualified. Although Miss Yiran is not considered one of the masters of the Huangfu family, she is deeply loved by his wife and treats her like her own daughter.
And he is just the guard of the Huangfu family. He can protect Miss Yiran, but he has no right to interfere with the other party's affairs.
After Li Yi heard it, he didn't suspect anything. He took the phone, handed it to Zhong Yuyiran, and left.
Zhong Yuyiran's eyes were dimly lit. After looking at the phone in his hand for a while, he finally dialed the familiar number.
After a while, a familiar voice came from the other end of the phone, "Hello, I'm Zhong Yuliuying."
"Auntie, it's me, I'm Yiran." In stark contrast to that gloomy face, Zhong Yuyiran's tone at this moment was very light, as if she was very happy, "Are you at home now?"
"It turned out to be Yiran! Yes! I'm at home now!" Zhong Yuliuying seemed very happy when she received Zhong Yuyiran's call, "You are now in the old castle in Paris! I heard that Ruiling is also here today, right?"
"Yes! Brother Huangfu has arrived today." Zhong Yuyiran's tone was very relaxed, as if he was just chatting about family affairs, and his words were very casual, "He came here with Miss Ye. When I saw Miss Ye, I was really surprised!"
"Miss Ye?" Suddenly hearing the unfamiliar name, Zhong Yuliuying couldn't help frowning, her tone was not as relaxed as before, "Miss Ye you are talking about is—"
"It's Miss Ye Leng'an who helped me treat my illness before!" There was nothing wrong with Zhong Yuyiran's tone, and she didn't sound deliberate, "I didn't expect that she and Brother Huangfu have such a good relationship! This time they came to Paris together, and I don't know if there is something wrong."
"So it's her!" The voice from the opposite side came again, "Then this Ms. Ye is living with you in the guest building now! Is she there now?"
Although Zhong Yuliuying's tone didn't change at all, Zhong Yuyiran had been able to please Zhong Yuliuying for so many years, so she could still hear the difference.
There was a smug smile on the corner of her mouth, Zhong Yuyiran continued to smile and said as if she didn't notice anything, "No! Now Miss Ye lives in the main building, and she also lives on the second floor. It seems that Brother Huangfu really treats her very well!"
"The second floor?" Zhong Yuliuying's voice couldn't help but raise a few degrees, "You said she lives on the second floor?"
"Yes!" Zhong Yuyiran seemed a little surprised, "Auntie, what's wrong with you? Why are you so excited all of a sudden?"
"It's okay." The voice on the other side returned to calm, "By the way, Yiran, do you know who that Miss Ye is? Does she have anything to do with the Ye Family in the Hidden World?"
"Miss Ye's medical skills are very good. As for the rest, I don't know very well." Zhong Yuyiran saw that the other party had returned to her usual appearance, and she continued to respond, "However, she should have nothing to do with the Ye family in the hidden world. Besides, I have never heard Min'er say that there is such a person named Ye Leng'an in the Ye family."
Miner, Ye Miner, is a branch of the Ye family in the hidden world, and is also the one who asked her to help take pictures of the Seven Star Flower this time.
"That's right!" Zhong Yuliuying's voice came again, "Yiran, I suddenly remembered that I still have some things to do, so I won't talk to you for now."
"Oh, yes, Auntie." Zhong Yuyi replied obediently, "Then Auntie, go and do your work first! I won't bother you. Take care of your health, and I'll go to see you after I go back."
"Okay." After hurriedly putting down a word, Zhong Yuliuying over there hung up the phone directly.
Hearing bursts of busy tone from the phone next to her ear, Zhong Yuyiran didn't feel any dissatisfaction. She hung up the phone slowly, with a smug smile on her face.
Ye Leng'an thought that if he confuses Brother Huangfu, he will be able to enter the door of the Huangfu family? It's just an idiot's dream. What kind of big family the Huangfu family is, I'm afraid that Ye Leng'an still doesn't know! Just the aunt's level alone, she will never pass it.
She won't do anything with her hands. After all, no matter what she does, Brother Huangfu will definitely not be able to find out in the end. At that time, there will definitely be no good end.
However, Auntie is different. Auntie is Brother Huangfu's biological mother, even if their relationship is sorted out in normal times, after all, blood is thicker than water, even if Brother Huangfu gets angry again, he won't do anything.
In the past, my aunt dealt with many women who were not worthy of Brother Huangfu, and I didn't see what Brother Huangfu said. This time, presumably there will be no exception.
Let Ye Leng'an be proud now, and the real good show will be released after returning to China!
After Zhong Yuliuying on the other side hung up the phone, his expression was not very good, and it could even be said that his expression was a little gloomy.
Wu Ma, who stood by and waited on her, felt a little strange, because in the past, Madam would always be in a good mood after answering Miss Yiran's call. I have to admit that although Miss Yiran's background is not very good, she is very good at pleasing Madam.
In the future, although Miss Yiran will not be able to take the position of the young master's wife, she should be able to become one of the young master's concubine due to her relationship with the wife.
I just don’t know what Miss Yiran said to Madam this time to make Madam look so ugly. However, it is obvious that Madam is not angry with Miss Yiran, or else she would not deliberately control her emotions when she just hung up the phone.
Although she was curious, Mama Wu didn't dare to ask. She has served by Madam's side for many years, and she is considered an old man, but she does not dare to be presumptuous or presumptuous.
After a long time, Zhong Yuliuying finally spoke, "Mother Wu, wait a moment and ask someone to investigate a girl named Ye Leng'an. It is said that she is quite young. Recently, she and Rui Ling seem to be getting very close."
After hearing Zhong Yuliuying's order, Wu Ma's eyes flashed with understanding, the expression on her face remained unchanged, and she replied respectfully, "Okay, ma'am."
She has done this many times. It can even be said that it is already familiar with it. In the past, whenever there were some unworthy women around the young master, the madam would investigate and decide whether to deal with it.
However, the young master doesn't seem to have any opinions after each processing. Therefore, Madam became more careless.
Thinking about it, it should be the same this time. The young master seems to be a little indifferent towards his wife, but she is her biological mother after all, and she is definitely not comparable to just any woman outside. That's why the young master didn't have any dissatisfaction after his wife dealt with those women!
Although the order has been given, Zhong Yuliuying's expression is still not very good.
Now she still doesn't know who this Ye Leng'an is, but just from Yi Ran's description, she can know that this girl is definitely not simple, she must be a deep-minded one. Otherwise, it would be impossible to live on the second floor of the old castle.
You know, it belongs to Ruiling's private domain, without his permission, even their parents are not allowed to step in. But now Ye Leng'an made an exception. No matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like a good phenomenon.
If this Ye Leng’an came from a big family, then it’s okay, he can be worthy of their Huangfu family. However, if he is just an ordinary person with some medical skills, it is absolutely impossible to enter their Huangfu family, and he is not even qualified to be a concubine of Ruiling.
Ye Leng'an on the other side has no idea that someone is investigating her, and she is preparing for the upcoming auction.
In the next few days, Ye Leng'an did not go out, but stayed inside the castle, and began to gather his own funds so that the transaction could be completed as soon as possible after the auction.
In the past few days, she has not seen Zhong Yuyiran again. She didn't live in the same building in the first place, and Zhong Yuyiran didn't come over either, so she didn't know if she was busy or if Huangfu Ruiling had issued some kind of restraining order, anyway, she just didn't see her again.
Soon, it will be the day of the auction.
In the evening, Ye Leng'an put on her dress and went downstairs, ready to wait for Huangfu Ruiling to go to the auction together.
She didn't have an invitation, so she had to go with Huangfu Ruiling. Originally, she planned to get an invitation card by herself, but Huangfu Ruiling said that it would not be so troublesome, and it would be fine to go together when the time comes. What's more, she can come with him on his private jet.
Thinking about it, she thought it was not bad, so she agreed.
As soon as he arrived downstairs, Ye Leng'an saw Zhong Yuyiran standing there dressed up, as if waiting for someone.
He and Ye Leng'an simply wore a dress without even changing their makeup, while Zhong Yuyiran dressed up extra grandly. She was wearing a pure white sleeveless evening dress. The long skirt dragged the floor, and the corners of the skirt swayed. The high-grade fabric of the dress outlined her perfect waistline. The sleeveless single-shoulder strap design, clear clavicle, and small dewy shoulders gave her a charming and charming look while being fairy-like. A simple pearl necklace around the neck makes the slender neck more delicate.
It can be said that Zhong Yuyiran's outfit really took a lot of thought, showing all her advantages to the fullest. No matter who it is, seeing such a beautiful girl, I'm afraid they will fall in love at first sight!
When Zhong Yuyiran saw Ye Leng'an in evening dress, she couldn't help being stunned. Obviously, she didn't expect Ye Leng'an to be dressed like this. However, immediately, there was unstoppable jealousy in her heart.
Because she found that she had put so much effort into dressing up, and in contrast with Ye Leng'an who didn't wear makeup, not only failed to overwhelm the other party, but looked a bit vulgar.
She tried her best to suppress the jealousy in her heart, with a smile on her face, she asked, "Miss Ye, where are you planning to go at this time?"
Although she asked like this, she still had a vague guess in her heart that was not very good. Because, if we want to talk about today's important occasion, there is only one, and that is to wait for the upcoming auction.
She had heard that Huangfu Ruiling would also go to the auction, so she wanted to wait here to see if she could go together. It's just that he didn't expect that before Huangfu Ruiling came, he saw Ye Leng'an in a formal dress.
