Seeing Huangfu Ruixiangâs retreat, Zhong Yatingâs eyes couldnât help but flash with a trace of disdain and satisfaction. She had already anticipated this outcome. As long as Huangfu Ruixiang saw Huangfu Ruilingâs cold demeanor, he wouldnât dare to step forward at this moment.
She knew that Li Yiranâs presence here today was orchestrated by her cunning mother-in-law. It was due to her dissatisfaction with Zhong Yatingâs background that she wanted to support Li Yiran against her. Unfortunately, this was the result.
Just moments ago, Li Yiran was still provoking her. Now, in the blink of an eye, she couldnât back down.
Seeing this situation, she felt immensely pleased!
Zhongyu Liuying and Nangong Xiyu glanced at each other, and Nangong Xiyu immediately looked away.
Clearly, Nangong Xiyu didnât want to get involved in this matter. No matter what, Li Yiranâs appearance was inappropriate for todayâs occasion.
She had already warned Zhongyu Liuying earlier. It was a pity the other party wasnât willing to listen, so there was nothing more she could say.
Thus, faced with this situation, she naturally couldnât lend a helping hand.
Seeing Nangong Xiyuâs evasive gaze, Zhongyu Liuying gritted her teeth in frustration. She knew that at this critical moment, Nangong Xiyu would definitely shirk responsibility. This was truly shameless.
âWhatâs wrong? Is my question difficult to answer?â Huangfu Ruilingâs cold voice rang out again. âOr do you all think itâs normal for Li Yiran to be here?â
Ye Lengâan, beside him, remained silent. She simply watched the drama unfold without expressing any opinions.
Upon arriving, she had already noticed Li Yiranâs presence. At first, she found it somewhat strange. However, when she saw Li Yiran intending to enter the ancestral hall, she was greatly surprised.
Though she wasnât familiar with many of the Huangfu familyâs customs, she knew places like the ancestral hall were solemn. With Li Yiranâs status, she wasnât qualified to enter.
However, Li Yiranâs presence here was likely orchestrated by Zhongyu Liuying.
She understood Zhongyu Liuyingâs motives but couldnât help but sigh. This was indeed a risky move!
She wanted to use an occasion like today to elevate Li Yiranâs status, so she could continue to oppose Zhong Yating. But Zhongyu Liuying hadnât considered whether an occasion like today was really something she could exploit.
Seeing Huangfu Ruilingâs expression darken even further, Nangong Xiyu quickly spoke up to distance herself. âThis was all suggested by your mother, and I advised against it, but to no avail.â
Nangong Xiyu bluntly laid out all the facts; she had no intention of sharing responsibility with Zhongyu Liuying.
Upon hearing Nangong Xiyuâs attempts to deflect blame, Zhongyu Liuyingâs expression turned ugly. She glared fiercely at Nangong Xiyu before forcing a smile and reluctantly speaking up. âAlthough Yiran is not Ruixiangâs wife, she has given birth to Ruixiangâs only son. So, today I intend to have the childâs name entered into the family tree. Naturally, as the birth mother, Yiran should also witness this scene.â
Nangong Xiyu naturally noticed the almost murderous look Zhongyu Liuying directed at her. However, she didnât care at all. After all, this matter had nothing to do with her. She couldnât let herself, an outsider, bear the responsibility!
Seeing Zhongyu Liuying step forward to explain for her, Li Yiran finally felt relieved.
âOn the family tree?â Hearing Zhongyu Liuyingâs explanation, Huangfu Ruiling frowned.
At these words, Li Yiranâs heart skipped a beat.
Because she felt todayâs matter might be doomed. As the head of the Huangfu family, if Huangfu Ruiling disagreed, the child wouldnât be entered into the family tree.
In a large family like the Huangfu family, only those on the family tree were considered true members. Otherwise, even if the child was registered with Huangfu Ruixiang, he wouldnât be recognized.
If the child wasnât recognized by the Huangfu family, heâd forever be an outsider, not valued by the family.
As for her, the so-called biological mother, she had even less status.
Zhongyu Liuying clearly understood Huangfu Ruilingâs meaning. She hurriedly said, âThis child is Ruixiangâs biological child. Itâs only natural for him to be on the family tree.â
âThatâs right.â
At this moment, Huangfu Jingzhang also stepped forward. âThis is Ruixiangâs son and my grandson, so he must be on the family tree.â
Whether out of genuine love for his grandson or simply to oppose Huangfu Ruiling, he firmly sided with Zhongyu Liuying today.
Li Yiran, who had been silent on the sidelines, couldnât help but breathe a sigh of relief seeing Zhongyu Liuying and Huangfu Jingzhang stand up for the child.
Though she knew their motives werenât pure, achieving her goal was what mattered.
Now, as long as the child made it onto the family tree, whether she entered the ancestral hall was less important. To her, the child was her greatest leverage. Only when the childâs identity was recognized could she, the biological mother, have a place.
Huangfu Ruiling glanced indifferently at Huangfu Jingzhang and Zhongyu Liuying, then said, âWhether illegitimate children can be entered into the family tree is up to me, not you. Or have you decided to act first and explain later?â
âHuangfu Ruiling, we are your parents,â Huangfu Jingzhang said with exasperation. âIs this how you treat your biological parents? Weâre not asking for much. We just want our biological grandson to be on the family tree. Is that too much to ask? Or do you no longer see us as your parents?â
Regardless of the reason, today he had to get this child on the family tree. He also wanted everyone to see that even though Huangfu Ruiling was head of the family, he was still his father. That was an unchangeable fact.
In contrast to Huangfu Jingzhang, Huangfu Ruiling remained calm, even indifferent. âThis child cannot be entered into the family tree.â
