章 976: Encounter

Upon hearing Ye Leng'an's words, Huangfu Ruiling found himself lost in thought.

After a considerable pause, he spoke slowly, "It seems imperative now to conduct a thorough investigation of the Ye family."

Throughout his speech, his gaze remained fixed on Ye Leng'an, as if he sought to discern her thoughts.

"Why are you staring at me like that?" Ye Leng'an was puzzled. Then, as if a thought occurred to her, she smiled wryly and said, somewhat incredulously, "Are you considering turning a blind eye to the peculiarities of the Ye family just to spare my feelings?"

Did she appear sentimental towards the Ye family? She harbored no affection for them, not even for her own biological parents.

Huangfu Ruiling withdrew his gaze nonchalantly, replying, "You're overthinking it. I'm merely curious if you have any other intentions."
