The farce came to an end, concluding with Huangfu Jingzhang and Zhongyu Liuying retreating.
Li Yiran, not qualified to enter the ancestral hall, lingered outside unwillingly.
Quietly, she stood there, gazing up at the ancestral hall. Unaware of the situation inside, her heart brimmed with resentment.
She had anticipated a grand entrance but ended up alone outside, her son unrecognized by the Huangfu family.
Recalling Zhong Yating's provoking gaze, she felt an urge to confront her.
She realized that despite Zhongyu Liuying's efforts to elevate her status, a difference remained between her and Zhong Yating, starkly evident in today's events.
While Zhong Yating could stand proudly by Huangfu Ruixiang's side, she was left outside, even her son unacknowledged.
This fueled her ambition to surpass Zhong Yating and to be recognized by the Huangfu family.
