After ending the call, Huangfu Ruiling gazed at Ye Leng’an and congratulated her, “Well done on acing the college entrance exam! What kind of reward would you like?”

Ye Leng’an blinked, then replied with a smile, “There’s a reward! But I haven’t decided yet. I’ll let you know once I’ve made up my mind!”

“Alright!” Huangfu Ruiling’s voice was filled with affection.

While the two shared a tender moment, Huangfu Ruiling’s phone rang at an inconvenient time. Disregarding it, he hung up.

However, the caller seemed persistent and immediately dialed again.

Ye Leng’an suggested, “You should answer it!”

Despite Huangfu Ruiling’s displeasure at the untimely call, he obeyed Ye Leng’an’s advice and picked up, his tone chilly. “What’s the matter?”

In less than a minute, Huangfu Ruiling responded curtly, “Got it,” and hung up.

Curious, Ye Leng’an raised an eyebrow. “Who was it?”

“Zhongyu Liuying,” Huangfu Ruiling replied without concealment. “She asked me to go back.”

“Then go quickly!” Ye Leng’an stood up and nudged Huangfu Ruiling. “It’s probably because your identity has been exposed, and that’s why she urgently summoned you! She is quite well-informed! We’ve only just returned, and she already knew.”

“Huangfu Ruixiang,” Huangfu Ruiling disclosed the informant’s name. “He told her.”

Ye Leng’an smiled and commented, “Clearly, the knives are out for you this time!”

“I’ll go back and check,” Huangfu Ruiling said casually. “Do you want to come with me?”

“No.” Ye Leng’an shook her head. “I plan to practice alchemy later, so I won’t accompany you.”

Having been occupied with other matters, she hadn’t practiced alchemy for a long time. With some free time now, she intended to refine pills and hone her skills.

Accepting her decision, Huangfu Ruiling bid farewell and left the villa.

Once Huangfu Ruiling departed, Ye Leng’an entered the alchemy room to begin her practice.

Huangfu Ruiling swiftly returned to the Huangfu family’s ancestral residence. Upon entering, he found Huangfu Jingzhang and Zhongyu Liuying seated with peculiar expressions – neither good nor bad.

Huangfu Jingzhang and Zhongyu Liuying watched Huangfu Ruiling enter with bewilderment. They had learned from Ruixiang that Huangfu Ruiling’s legs had long recovered.

However, seeing it firsthand still shocked them.

“You…” Zhongyu Liuying couldn’t help asking, “When did you recover and could stand?”

Huangfu Ruiling walked to the sofa, sat down, and leaned back. “Why did you call me back this time?”

“Didn’t you hear your mother’s question?” Huangfu Jingzhang felt irritated. “Is this how you treat your mother?”

The accusatory demeanor exuded a sense of superiority that made it uncomfortable to listen to.

Unfazed, Huangfu Ruiling maintained his composure, his eyes icy. “What does it have to do with you?”

“What kind of attitude is this?” Huangfu Jingzhang, frustrated by Huangfu Ruiling’s indifference, became agitated. “We are your parents, not your enemies. How can you treat us like this?”

“Believe what you want.” Compared to Huangfu Jingzhang’s frustration, Huangfu Ruiling remained calm, almost indifferent. “If you called me back today to question and punish, there’s no need. Also, don’t forget your current status.”

Hearing that, Huangfu Jingzhang was furious. “Our status? We are your parents!”

“So what?” Huangfu Ruiling crossed his hands, looking at Huangfu Jingzhang and Zhongyu Liuying with eyes devoid of any extra emotion. “Are you trying to assert your parental authority in front of me? Showing respect for others according to a person’s status and age, status is prior to age.”

Huangfu Jingzhang and Zhongyu Liuying were not fools; they naturally understood Huangfu Ruiling’s words.

Huangfu Ruiling was the head of the Huangfu family, undoubtedly the most esteemed figure within the entire family. Even though they were his parents, within the family, they had to show utmost respect to Huangfu Ruiling.

“You…” Huangfu Jingzhang’s face turned red with anger.

However, seeing Huangfu Ruiling’s indifferent expression, he didn’t dare to erupt. He knew very well that if he dared to confront Huangfu Ruiling in anger, Huangfu Ruiling would genuinely punish him. Moreover, even if Huangfu Ruiling did punish him, no one in the entire family would plead for him, and no one would dare to have any objections against Huangfu Ruiling.

“Ruiling, we’re just concerned about you.” Zhongyu Liuying, sensing that something was amiss, immediately spoke to ease the tension. “We’re your parents, and we definitely won’t harm you.”

Hearing her words, a trace of mockery flashed in Huangfu Ruiling’s eyes.

It seemed this couple had forgotten about the kidnapping incident.

“Just state your purpose directly.” Huangfu Ruiling said coldly, “I don’t have time to beat around the bush with you.”

Huangfu Jingzhang was angered, but Zhongyu Liuying pulled his sleeve, and upon seeing Huangfu Ruiling’s cold gaze, his anger dissipated, leaving only an icy demeanor.

Because in Huangfu Ruiling’s eyes, he saw no warmth, as if they weren’t his parents. For a moment, he felt only a chilling solemnity.

“Ruiling, we genuinely have no ulterior motives.” Zhongyu Liuying forced a smile. “When did your legs recover? Why didn’t you tell us? We’ve been worried about your legs all these years!”
