Rest assured, I’ll see to your care in old age, and arrange for your peaceful passing.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Elder Mrs. Leng’s pupils contracted sharply, her heart sinking like an icy stone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She knew this grandson had truly made up his mind this time, leaving no room for mercy, and her face turned ashen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The bodyguards approached. Unlike the rough treatment given to Leng Hao, they politely escorted her out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leng Yunyang stood in silence, his expression dark and unreadable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a long pause, his hoarse voice broke through: \"Uncle Leng.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The butler trembled slightly as he emerged from the shadows, cautiously addressing him: \"Young Master.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"From this day forward, you will be responsible for looking after Grandmother until the end of her days.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The butler sighed inwardly and lowered his head respectfully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After Uncle Leng left, Leng Yunyang appointed a new butler—Uncle Leng’s nephew, Leng Yan. Unlike his uncle, Leng Yan had long been working under Leng Yunyang’s directives, and his promotion was merely a matter of time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unfortunately, the once-bustling Leng family had now fallen into disarray, with some members dead and others scattered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The opulent and meticulously designed villa now bore an air of desolation and cold emptiness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, a man dressed in black strode inside and approached Leng Yunyang, lowering his voice to deliver a few hushed words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leng Yunyang’s eyes flickered briefly before he turned and ascended the stairs. \"The study,\" he ordered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leng Yan bowed respectfully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once they went upstairs, Leng Yan stood still, lost in thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Young Master Leng had two trusted confidants: one was Huang Xiao, but Huang Xiao was aligned with the old master, and Leng Yunyang, being highly suspicious by nature, likely didn’t trust Huang Xiao much.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The other confidant was Ye Dong, who ascended with Leng Yunyang. Leng Yan rarely encountered him, but he knew Ye Dong was the one Leng Yunyang trusted the most.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even for Leng Yan, despite obtaining the position of butler, his authority was limited solely to overseeing the manor and handling trivial affairs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for Leng Yunyang’s real ventures—Leng Yan dared not meddle, not even a little.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, he could only focus on fulfilling his duties without overstepping his boundaries.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leng Yan lowered his gaze and summoned his staff to begin delegating tasks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upstairs, Leng Yunyang’s gaze swept toward Leng Xuexi’s bedroom door, deepening as he took deliberate steps toward the study.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the study door closed, the tightly shut bedroom door cautiously opened a crack, and Leng Xuexi poked out her tiny head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She surveyed the surroundings carefully, then crouched low and tiptoed to the study door, pressing her ear against it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The soundproofing was impeccable—she couldn’t hear a single word.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leng Xuexi pouted in frustration.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>~\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A taxi stopped at the entrance of the residential complex.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen You’an stepped out of the car, ready to enter the complex, but her footsteps suddenly paused as she turned her head to glance into the distance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beside the complex’s fence grew a sprawling patch of dense evergreen vines. Their vigorous vitality stretched beyond the fence, casting vast shadows under the dusky streetlights.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen You’an altered her course and walked toward the vines.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The shadow hiding behind the streetlight abruptly retreated, seemingly ready to flee.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen You’an narrowed her eyes slightly, twisting her wrist to reveal a sharp branch resting in her palm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Blood would surely spill.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s me.\" A faint sigh, tinged with helplessness, echoed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen You’an hesitated for a moment, then immediately withdrew the sharp branch from her palm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A tall, slender youth slowly stepped out from behind the lamppost.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The warm glow of the orange streetlight bathed him, draping him in a soft, gentle aura.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The boy’s expression carried an undercurrent of subtle discomfort, yet he still mustered the courage to step forward, approaching Shen You’an.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I saw you take a call at lunch in the cafeteria and leave in a hurry. Did something urgent happen?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The boy’s gaze held gentle concern as he looked at her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Like a ray of sunlight warming a frozen windowpane in winter, it brought an indescribable comfort to the heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen You’an’s fingers curled slightly, her eyes lowering quietly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Just a minor issue; it’s already taken care of.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a slight pause, she asked, \"Have you been waiting long?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The boy shook his head. \"No.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen You’an replied flatly, \"It’s late—you should head back.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With drivers and bodyguards always at his side, Shen You’an had no concern for his safety.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She turned to leave, but Liu Runxi hurriedly called out, \"Wait.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen You’an frowned and lifted her gaze to meet his.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liu Runxi reached into his backpack and took out a box, confidently handing it to her. \"Happy birthday.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen You’an’s fingertips trembled briefly as she raised her eyes quietly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The boy smiled at her, his gaze steady and warm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How did you know it was my birthday?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I happened to overhear Gao Yuyue mentioning it. She said she planned to hold a small birthday party for you tonight, but you left the school at noon.\"\u003C\u002Fp>",886,"2026-06-06T12:23:42.047Z",1,"novelbin.me","d926efb1c0f33dc5af5b870bd80088d4b739ef26540ca976637496d71e083046","drama-queen-reborn-as-a-top-student-chapter-244","drama-queen-reborn-as-a-top-student-chapter-242",1154,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fdrama-queen-reborn-as-a-top-student-cover.jpg"]
