Chapter 273 Contempt for the Rules
"No, Ye Leng'an, you can't tell the Patriarch Huangfu about this." Yuan Silei was very anxious, and even wanted to go forward to hold Ye Leng'an's hand, but Ye Leng'an directly avoided her. She looked at Ye Leng'an, and her tone was much lower than before, "If you tell him, then our family will really be over."
"The survival of your family depends on your own thoughts." Ye Leng'an looked at Yuan Silei, and said calmly, "I have already said that I want you to treat me as a stranger. But, obviously, you didn't take my words to heart. You have caused me trouble, so I should also charge some interest!"
"Ye Leng'an, I promise, I will never appear in front of you again in the future." Yuan Silei immediately understood what Ye Leng'an meant, she looked worried, but she still promised, "Even if I see you from a distance, I will avoid it. Is this okay?"
Although she knows very well that the only person who can help her cure her illness is probably Ye Leng'an. However, when it comes to the life and death of the family business, she can only give in.
If there is no family business, then she really has no future. If the family business is still there, even if she will not be able to have children in the future, then she can still have a safe haven.
The most important thing is that she can see that Ye Leng'an has no intention of helping her at all. The reason why she became what she is now is to bring the family business back to life. If in the end, the family business still had problems, wouldn't everything she had suffered be completely meaningless.
So, now she has no other choice but to agree.
"As long as you keep your promise, then I can pretend that I have never known you before." Ye Leng'an said lightly, "Yuan Silei, it is undeniable that we may have been friends before, even with a purpose, but we are still friends. However, that is already a thing of the past. From now on, let's be strangers!"
No matter how much unwillingness and resentment there is in her heart, the current situation cannot tolerate self-willedness, Yuan Silei can only nod her head, but—
"Ye Leng'an, since we will be strangers in the future, there is one thing I hope you can agree to," Yuan Silei looked at Ye Leng'an, "I want you to promise me that you will never reveal what I told you about the mysterious woman."
"You mean—" Ye Leng'an narrowed his eyes, his expression a little unpredictable.
"You must promise me this," Yuan Silei said anxiously, "If you reveal me, our family will be in danger. Since we are already strangers, can't you let us live?"
After listening to Yuan Silei's words, Ye Leng'an's eyes flashed with clarity, and then nodded, "I won't tell the other party about this."
Obviously, the lives of Yuan Silei's family were threatened that night, so Yuan Silei was so afraid! However, even though Yuan Silei helped Yewan come to harm her this time, it was not enough to pay the price with the lives of the whole family.
Cultivators pay attention to cause and effect. If Ye Xiyuan's family is really wiped out because she leaked to Yewan, it will also hinder her future cultivation.
So, for this trivial matter, she promised Yuan Silei that it would be fine. However, other things are impossible.
Finally, Yuan Silei could only leave in despair.
She looked back three times at each step, but in the end there was still no hope. At this moment, she couldn't help thinking, if she hadn't been on Ye Xiyuan's side at the beginning, wouldn't all of this happen today! If she and Ye Leng'an were still friends, then if something happened to her family, Ye Leng'an would definitely not turn a blind eye. It would be impossible for that mysterious woman to take advantage of the situation, and she would not be what she is now.
However, there are no ifs in this world.
The fact now is that she and Ye Leng'an had a falling out, her body was disabled, and she no longer had the possibility of being a mother.
And, most importantly, now she has to worry every day, worrying that the mysterious woman will come to trouble her.
On the other side, Ye Leng'an frowned after Yuan Silei left.
She didn't expect Ye Wan to be so courageous, not only sending people to Mortal World to use Yuan Silei. Now he is still blatantly threatening Yuan Silei, if it is leaked, it will kill Yuan Silei's family.
What Ye Wan did was simply flouting the rules of the hidden world.
Thinking of this, Ye Leng'an directly called Huangfu Ruiling.
It only took a few seconds after the call was connected, and the other end of the phone was already connected.
"Why are you looking for me at this time!" Huangfu Ruiling's deep voice came from the other end of the phone, "Did you miss me?"
Although she was mentally prepared, when she heard Huangfu Ruiling's voice, Ye Leng'an couldn't help but think of the marriage proposal last night. For a moment, her heart beat a little faster, and she felt a puff of heat rising from her face.
Seems to hear the heartbeat on the other end of the phone, Huangfu Ruiling's voice sounded again, "An'an, are you nervous?"
"How is it possible?" Ye Leng'an subconsciously retorted, "It's not a big deal, how could I be nervous!"
That's right, it's just being proposed, so why should she be nervous. The one who proposed was not nervous, why should she be nervous when she was proposed!
Besides, she and Huangfu Ruiling have been dating for a while, and this is a matter of course.
After hearing Ye Leng'an's words, Huangfu Ruiling laughed softly, "Okay, you are not nervous, I am the one who is nervous."
"Of course it's you." Ye Leng'an rolled his eyes around, with a hint of slyness in his tone, "I don't know who it is, I even prepared several plans for a marriage proposal!"
"It's me." Huangfu Ruiling's tone was full of endless indulgence, "So, Mrs. Huangfu, are you calling now to check the post?"
Ye Leng'an couldn't help rolling her eyes, but thinking that the other party couldn't see it at all, she immediately restrained herself, and then said, "Ling, when are we going to the hidden world? I think it's better to deal with the matter as soon as possible."
