In Xingyuan City, everything remained the same. No one noticed Leng Ling's arrival, and no one noticed the changes in the Ye family. Not many people in the Ye family even knew about this.
In this quiet and peaceful night, there was nothing unusual about the Ye family, shrouded in darkness, and they were just as usual.
However, while the scenery remains the same, a certain room in the Ye family is not the same as before. In this room, there is a pretty lady at the moment, facing the window and the sky.
The stars are in a daze.
Looking at the room of the patriarch Ye Hong, although it was midnight, it was still brightly lit, as if the owner of the room had not rested yet.
With enough cultivation, you don't need to sleep or eat, but one thing is indispensable, and that is rest.
No matter how strong a person's cultivation is, if they have not yet reached the level of transcendence and sainthood, rest is inevitable, because they also know what fatigue is.
Looking at the entire Yuanqi Continent, those who can not rest all year round are generally called old monsters. However, no one has really encountered such old monsters in this Yuanqi Continent so far.
Even though Ye Hong was able to cultivate enough to live without food and sleep, there were times when he was tired. Taking care of the affairs of the family had already made him a little tired, and now he still had to worry about Ye Han's disappearance.
Naturally, he would feel even more tired when the two parties were attacking him. However, it was already late at night and he had not rested yet. This was indeed a strange place.
Ye Hong's room was brightly lit, but there was no sign of anyone moving around. Ye Hong was sitting on the bed, staring at the yard outside the window in a daze.
As for Ye's mother, although her mood improved after receiving Ye Hong's comfort, she showed no signs of calming down. At this moment, she was standing in front of the window staring at the stars outside the window in a daze.
Ye Hong's disappearance was a big blow to them. Although Ye Hong was confident that he could find Ye Han, when he calmed down, he lost confidence in his heart.
The room fell into complete silence. Not only did no one say a word, not even the last trace of footsteps came out. There were only sighs in this silence.
"Han'er, come back soon!" Standing in front of the window, Ye Mu never took her eyes away from the starry sky, she just kept mumbling to herself.
Compared with Ye's mother, Ye Hong was naturally calmer. While sighing endlessly, he was also constantly thinking about sending people to find Ye Han tomorrow.
Although in the Ye family, he, the patriarch, is still another powerful force supporting him, but Ye Hong is very worried, not knowing who is the most loyal to him.
If it was an ordinary matter, he wouldn't have to think about it and just send someone who was on his side to handle it. However, looking for Ye Han was a very important matter and he was not willing to send people casually.
If it were about other things, he wouldn't worry about mistrusting others, but now he is looking for Ye Han. Even if he is not worried about the other party not finding Ye Han, he should still worry about whether the other party will find Ye Han if he finds him.
Bring it back safely.
If the other party is an undercover agent hidden by Ye Qiu and other rebellious people, then he has enough reasons to believe that after the other party finds Ye Han, not only will he not be able to bring him back safely, but he may also secretly do harm to Ye Han.
They would even spread the news about Ye Han's disappearance, which would undoubtedly be a profound blow to Ye Hong, who originally wanted to keep the operation secret.
For this reason, Ye Hong never dared to sleep, always thinking about who he should let go on his behalf to ensure that everything was safe.
From this, Ye Hong couldn't help but think of his own sadness. As a clan leader, he didn't even have anyone he could trust.
"Ms. sir, you don't have to worry. I think you should be able to send your eldest disciple there. He should be a trustworthy person!"
Seeing that Ye Hong was always hesitant, Ye Mu turned around in time, pondered for a while, then smiled and said.
"Him?" Hearing what Ye's mother said, Ye Hong paused for a moment, pondered for a long time, and then nodded helplessly and said, "I hope he doesn't want to betray me!"
After saying that, Ye Hong hesitated again, and then said: "It seems that this is the only way, I just want to take this opportunity to see if Feng'er is really that loyal to me!"
Ye Feng, the eldest disciple of the patriarch of the Ye family and the son of steward Ye Lin, was accepted as a disciple by exception because he saved Ye Hong's life when he was young.
Originally, Ye Hong planned not to accept any apprentices, but since Ye Feng had saved his life, he had nothing to repay him with, so he accepted the first disciple in his life.
Perhaps because of this incident, Ye Feng was extremely loyal to the clan leader, and even his father Ye Lin was promoted from a family servant to the position of housekeeper.
But because too many things have happened recently, Ye Hong has begun to worry about the people around him. For this reason, he has also begun to have doubts about Ye Feng, the senior disciple.
It is not Ye Hong's nature to be suspicious, but in this situation where a family rebellion is imminent, he has to be extra cautious, lest he be betrayed by those around him one day.
It just so happened that now he was faced with things like looking for Ye Han. Although he was particularly worried about Ye Feng, on this basis, it was difficult for him to find other candidates.
After deciding everything, Ye Hong felt relieved and no longer obsessed with contemplation. He smiled at Ye Mu and continued to sit cross-legged in front of the window, closing his eyes and resting.
Seeing this, Ye's mother suddenly smiled bitterly, and then slowly came to the bed, sat cross-legged with Ye Hong, and immediately began to rest.
At the same time, Leng Ling, who had been staring at the starry sky outside the window for a long time, came to his senses in time, and then murmured: "Brother Han, you must come back safely!"
After saying that, Leng Ling slowly walked to the bed and gently caressed his belly. Immediately, a trace of relief appeared on his face.
Leng Ling sat down cross-legged and stroked his belly again. Leng Ling closed his eyes slightly and immediately began to rest for the first time after several days of hard work.
The next day, the sun shone through the window on the table in the room, and the peripheral light also shone on the face of Leng Ling, who was sitting by the bed before he could move.
As if feeling the scorching heat coming from the sun, Leng Ling opened his eyes in time, then slowly put away the mental energy running in his body and got out of bed.
After looking out the window, Leng Ling came to the dressing table, because Ye Han rarely lived at home, and there were no dressing items on the dressing table.
Just when Leng Ling reluctantly wanted to give up dressing up, she heard footsteps coming from outside the door. The footsteps stopped when they reached the door.
As the footsteps stopped, a series of crisp knocks on the door rang. Hearing the knocks, Leng Ling subconsciously froze for a moment, and then he shouted softly outside the heavily loaded crossing door: "Come in!"
The door opened, and just as Leng Ling had thought before, it was some servants of the Ye family who came this time. The elder brother was carrying dressing utensils in his arms.
After placing the utensils in the room where the utensils were placed, the servants left in a hurry with empty hands, leaving only two maids serving.
When Leng Ling saw this, he knew that they were arranged by Ye Hong to serve him. He didn't send them away for a while, so he also let them dress up for him.
After dressing up, Leng Ling ordered them to leave first, and then he also left the room, ready to see how Ye Hong arranged today!
When they came to the meeting hall, they saw that the surroundings were still empty. Ye Hong and Ye Mu were sitting in the hall. In the middle of the hall, there seemed to be a young man in his twenties standing.
"Ling'er has met my father-in-law and mother-in-law!" Abandoning the young man in the center of the hall, Leng Ling's eyes shifted to the two people sitting in the seat, and he hurriedly saluted to them!
Seeing this, Ye Hong quickly put away the cautious look on his face and nodded towards Leng Ling with a smile. However, since it was the first time for Ye's mother to see Leng Ling, she still felt a little strange.
But after hearing Leng Ling call her mother-in-law, she soon got used to it. At the same time, she got up and went down to the hall to help Leng Ling up with her own hands.
"You are pregnant now, so you can't give us such a big gift again when you see us in the future!" Mother Ye's kind voice instantly reached Leng Ling's ears, making her initially feel a kind of maternal love!
Nodding slightly, Leng Ling didn't mean to force it. He just glanced at Ye Mu with a smile on his face, but there was a hint of bitterness in the smile, and fell silent for a while.
Seeing Leng Ling's behavior, Ye Mu quickly looked at Leng Ling carefully, then smiled and said: "Huh, I didn't expect that our Han'er is so lucky to be able to marry a girl as beautiful as you!"
"Mother-in-law is joking!" Although she was still a little unfamiliar, after all, she had met Ye's mother in the realm of Ye Han's heart. Leng Ling didn't feel too restrained and smiled awkwardly.
"Okay, it's getting late. Feng'er, please quickly take some people to the ice field to search. I hope we can find Han'er's whereabouts as soon as possible!"
Seeing that the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were getting along so harmoniously, Ye Hong was very pleased, but he also noticed that Ye Feng was still in the hall at the right time, so he smiled and gave instructions.
After Ye Hong's instructions, Ye Feng did not dare to neglect, and hurriedly agreed to Ye Hong, then turned and walked out of the hall.
Watching Ye Feng leave, Ye Hong suddenly showed a cautious look on his face. Seeing this, Leng Ling asked hurriedly: "Father, who is this person?"
Hearing Leng Ling's question, Ye Hong suddenly smiled bitterly and said: "He is my eldest disciple, his name is Ye Feng, and he is the son of Butler Ye Lin who brought you in last night!"
