Chapter 966: Just Joking

Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Upon hearing Ye Leng’an’s attempt to shift blame, Master Zhongyu’s expression soured. He gazed at Ye Leng’an, struggling to contain his inner anger. “Miss Ye, let’s speak frankly. You’re well aware of what’s going on with the poison in Lingshan’s body. And as for this Essence Cultivating Pill, surely you understand its nature.”

He could discern that Huangfu Ruiling wasn’t going to intervene in this matter. So, the only breakthrough point now was with Ye Leng’an.

“Master Zhongyu, you’ve misunderstood me.” Ye Leng’an blinked innocently, batting her large eyes. “From the start, I’ve made it clear that the poison from the Five Days of Slumber, when combined with the Essence Cultivating Pill, forms a completely new toxin. Zhongyu Lingshan willingly took it to prove her innocence. Unfortunately, her initial intent was to poison me, but she ended up harming herself. This has nothing to do with me!”

Ye Leng’an shrugged, appearing indifferent. “Besides, before she took the Essence Cultivating Pill, I explicitly warned her. She chose not to believe it. That’s her own fault!”

Her words left Master Zhongyu speechless, and he shot a harsh glare at Zhongyu Lingshan.

Faced with Master Zhongyu’s reproachful gaze, Zhongyu Lingshan avoided eye contact, unable to meet his gaze directly.

“Master Zhongyu, I believe it’s clear to everyone who’s right and who’s wrong in this matter.” At this moment, Huangfu Ruiling spoke up, his tone indifferent. “From the beginning, it was Zhongyu Lingshan who intended to poison An’an. You haven’t provided the explanation you promised before. Now, you’re here to seek punishment for Zhongyu Lingshan’s matter. Have you decided to make enemies of the Zhongyu and Huangfu families?”

As soon as he said this, Master Zhongyu’s expression changed. He immediately apologized, cupping his fists. “Master Huangfu, this matter is indeed our Zhongyu family’s fault. Once Lingshan recovers, I will punish her severely. We have no intention of reprimanding you today. We’re only seeking Miss Ye’s help.”

Though Huangfu Ruiling was young, he had led the Huangfu family to grow stronger. Becoming enemies with the Huangfu family would benefit the Zhongyu family in no way.

Moreover, it was absolutely impossible to become enemies with the Huangfu family over a daughter like Zhongyu Lingshan.

Zhongyu Lingshan remained silent, emitting a gloomy aura from head to toe.

Huangfu Ruiling continued, glancing at Master Zhongyu, “An’an is my fiancée. Even though we’re not married yet, she’s the matriarch of the Huangfu family. In the Huangfu family, her status is equal to mine.”

After hearing Huangfu Ruiling’s words, Master Zhongyu became serious. He then turned to Ye Leng’an, apologizing, “Miss Ye, please forgive me for what I said just now. However, we genuinely came today seeking an antidote. Please do us a favor. Our Zhongyu family won’t mistreat you.”

Ye Leng’an replied with a faint smile, “Master Zhongyu, I’ve already said this is Zhongyu Lingshan’s own choice. She has to bear the consequences herself. She’s an adult, so she should have some awareness!”

Master Zhongyu turned and glared at Zhongyu Lingshan before reprimanding her softly, “Lingshan, apologize to Miss Ye immediately. You were the one with bad intentions from the start. Take this opportunity to apologize.”

He could tell that though Ye Leng’an claimed not to mind, she couldn’t let this matter go.

Moreover, in the end, this matter was caused by Zhongyu Lingshan herself. Therefore, at this point, Zhongyu Lingshan had to apologize herself.

Zhongyu Lingshan was a little stunned to be suddenly called out. However, after reacting, a trace of resentment and unwillingness flashed across her eyes.

When she looked up again, there was only haggardness and deep guilt on her face. “Miss Ye, this is my fault. I shouldn’t have poisoned you. Please forgive me.”

At this moment, Zhongyu Lingshan no longer had the arrogance of the past. She looked as if she was enveloped in a thick shadow. freeweɓnovel.cøm

Just looking at Zhongyu Lingshan like this, no matter who it was, they would feel that she had already deeply realized her mistake.

However, in Ye Leng’an’s eyes, that was not the case at all. “Though you’re apologizing to me now, in fact, you probably want me to die!”

“I didn’t,” Zhongyu Lingshan immediately retorted subconsciously. “After this period of self-reflection, I really know my mistake. Miss Ye, as long as you’re willing to give me the antidote, I’ll do whatever you want me to do.”

She really hated Ye Leng’an to death now. However, she couldn’t say such words out loud.

Not to mention how tense the relationship between the Huangfu family and the Zhongyu family was, just the hardships she had suffered during this period had made her learn her lesson. Therefore, in front of Ye Leng’an, no matter how unwilling she was, she would never say it out loud.

However, as long as there was a chance, she would definitely take revenge. She would definitely not let Ye Leng’an have it easy.

“If you really felt that you were wrong, you wouldn’t have come to my door at this time.” Ye Leng’an looked at the haggard and apologetic Zhongyu Lingshan and hit the nail on the head. “You’re bowing down now because of the pain during this period. Since you’re not sincere, there’s no need to put on an act. Besides…”

At this point, the smile on Ye Leng’an’s face was tainted with a hint of malice. “Zhongyu Lingshan, I’ve already said before that I accept your apology. However, as a victim, I chose not to forgive you. Even today, my choice has not changed.”

These words made Zhongyu Lingshan’s face darken, and her expression became distorted. “Ye Leng’an, what do you want me to do? Do you want me to die?”

Ye Leng’an wasn’t surprised by Zhongyuling’s sudden change in expression. She smiled slightly and asked, “Then, Zhongyu Lingshan, what were your thoughts when you put the Five Days of Slumber in the wine? Are you going to tell me that you were just joking with me and not trying to kill me? Do you believe what you just said?”
