Chapter 48: Coming to Her House
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
The moment Ye Leng’an stepped into the house, she immediately became alert.
Thinking of the things in her alchemy room, she quickly walked inside the room. Although she did not know who it was, the value of her entire house could not compare to that of the things in the alchemy room. She was not sure if the other party was here for her medicinal pills. After all, when she went to Ren Shang Tang to sell pills, she had never disguised herself.
However, as soon as she stepped into the living room, she saw two strangers in her house. One of them was sitting in a wheelchair, while the other was standing behind him. It looked like he was protecting the other one.
Ye Leng’an had the urge to turn around and leave the moment she saw the two of them.
Ever since she returned to this world, she had always felt that she was quite powerful. But when she saw the man in the wheelchair, she had the impulse to run away. It wasn’t because she felt that this man was much stronger than her, but because of the murderous aura from him that made her want to retreat.
“Whv? Do vou want to leave?” a cold voice asked. It was the man in the wheelchair who spoke. He looked up at Ye Leng’an and said, “This is your house. Are you sure you want to leave?”
It was only then that she noticed the man’s appearance. Even though she had seen many handsome men before, she couldn’t help but be captivated.
Although the man was in a wheelchair, it did not affect his charm at all. His clean and fair face was cold and handsome. His thick eyebrows, high nose, and pretty lips were all of nobleness and elegance. However, the most frightening thing was his eyes which were cold and aloof, as if they had no focus. He looked down at the world with those deep eyes filled with calmness, making people involuntarily submit.
But this stunning scene didn’t make Ye Leng’an let down her guard. The more beautiful, the more poisonous. She understood this principle.
The murderous aura this man emitted was so thick that it was almost tangible, which would suffice to illustrate this point. If an ordinary person was tainted with a bit of this murderous aura, he or she would probably immediately have a mental breakdown and die an unnatural death. However, this man seemed to be able to coexist peacefully with this baleful aura and could even control himself from hurting the people around him. She felt that even at her peak, she might not be able to do this.
However, even though she was wary of the man in the wheelchair, she kept an eye on the man standing behind the wheelchair in a protective posture. He wasn’t a good person either. Moreover, there seemed to be a force circulating in his body. Although it wasn’t spiritual power, it wasn’t weak.
The man sitting in the wheelchair was definitely not an ordinary person for being able to make such a man bow before him.
She just didn’t know what their purpose was.
“Since you know that this is my house, you should also know that you are trespassing!” Ye Leng’an looked at the man in the wheelchair and asked, “Are you waiting for me to call the police?”
“Call the police?” The man sitting in the wheelchair chuckled. When he looked at her, his eyes were filled with mockery. “Are you sure? If the police come, how are you going to explain to them? This is our family affair!” Family affair!
After hearing that, she had a bad feeling. “What do you mean?”
“Strictly speaking, we are on the same household register.” The man looked at her and said word by word, “You’re still underage, so I am your guardian!”
Her heart skipped a beat as a thought flashed through her mind. She blurted out, “You’re Huangfu Ruiling!”
No way! She just randomly picked up a person and had her household registration affiliated with his. But now this person came to her door and seemed to be difficult to deal with.
“Looks like you know me!” The man nodded and a smile flashed across his eyes.
“So, we’re really a family now. Isn’t it normal for me to come and see you now?”
“Haha!” She only wanted to slap herself. “Actually, if I say that this is a misunderstanding, will you believe me?”
Oh God! She just obeyed the law and found herself a guardian when she was still underage in this life. Why did she get herself into trouble?
Moreover, she only secretly added her name to his household register, and ordinary people should not be able to notice that. However, not only did he know about it, but he also came knocking on her door. What kind of luck was this?
“Oh, then can you tell me how this misunderstanding was caused?” Huangfu Ruiling looked at her with great interest. “I suddenly have a, uh, daughter in my household register?”
“No, no.” She hurriedly explained, “I’m definitely not your daughter. Besides, at your age, it’s impossible for you to have a daughter as old as me..”
