My Husband Is a Snake! - Chapter 25

Chapter 25 An Accident of Love

Yang Yuan’s expression turned ugly when he heard Xu Na’s words.

Ning Yao was supposed to study abroad with him. Her brother had even completed all the necessary procedures so that she could transition smoothly.

The two families were planning to wait until Yang Yuan and Ning Yao reached the legal age of marriage before they returned to China to get married. Yang Yuan was convinced his wife would be Ning Yao.

He had been a little reluctant initially. After all, he was still young and had so many women by his side. If he were to get married so early, wouldn’t he be unable to indulge in life?

However, before he could worry for long, Ning Yao was the one who approached the Yang family with conviction and broke off the engagement.

His parents were naturally very angry about this matter. They went directly to Ning Yao’s brother and told him that the marriage between the two families was canceled.

However, Ning Yao’s brother said that it was an impulsive decision made by Ning Yao and that he would try to persuade her to withdraw her decision.

After listening to Ning Wen’s words, Mr. Yang, Mrs. Yang, and Yang Yuan were willing to give the Ning family some respect. However, they had not expected Ning Yao to run away from home, insisting that she would never Yang Yuan.

This made Mr. Yang and Mrs. Yang extremely angry. If it wasn’t for Ning Wen’s repeated apologies, the two families would have become enemies.

Yang Yuan had not seen Ning Yao since she went to university, so he had no idea how she was doing at school.

Thus, when he heard Xu Na’s words, he asked, “You said that many people are pursuing her? Did she accept any of them?”

Although Ning Yao had long broken off their engagement, Yang Yuan still felt that Ning Yao was still his fiancée.

This was why hearing that Ning Yao had many suitors in school upset him.

“I don’t know if she accepted any of them.” Xu Na smiled mysteriously. “But two days ago, Ning Yao didn’t come home at night. Someone even took a picture of her being intimate with a man in the school’s auditorium.”

Yang Yuan’s expression darkened when he heard Xu Na’s words.

Ning Yao stayed out all night? Was she having an affair with a wild man outside?

Yang Yuan felt so angry it was as if his wife had an affair behind his back.

As Yang Yuan and Xu Na were whispering to each other, Song Ying looked over and said unhappily, “She’s good at picking up scraps.”

The new classmate had clearly taken a fancy to Ning Yao first.

However, Ning Yao did not care about Yang Yuan at all. She did not even look at Yang Yuan, let alone Xu Na.

After class, Ning Yao was about to return books to the library with Song Ying when she turned around and saw Xu Na and Yang Yuan walking out of the classroom together.

Before Yang Yuan left, he turned to look at Ning Yao with anger in his eyes, as if Ning Yao had done something wrong to him.

Ning Yao did not respond to his anger and pretended not to see him. Then, she returned the book with Song Ying. The two of them were about to go to the cafeteria to eat when Ning Yao’s phone suddenly rang.

She picked up the call and Clarence’s cold voice came through. “Have you eaten?”

“Not yet. I just finished class and am going to the cafeteria now.”

“I’m at Moonlight Lotus Pond near your school. I have a contract for you to deal with. Why don’t you come over?” asked Clarence nervously as he held the contract in his hand.

The contract was just an excuse. He just missed her too much after not seeing her for a whole day, so he wanted to come over to treat her to a meal.

He had no idea how he had endured the days without Ning Yao before this.

All he knew was that ever since she appeared, he wanted to see her every day.

Clarence’s words made Ning Yao feel a little embarrassed. “But I’ve already made an appointment with my roommates…” “It’s fine, it’s fine. You can go.” Song Ying was very observant. She quickly said out loud that she was not important at all.

“Alright, I’ll be there in a bit.” Ning Yao hung up the phone and Song Ying hurriedly came up to her with a gossipy smile. “Was it your boss?”

Ning Yao nodded. “Yeah, I think there’s been a lot of work at the company recently, so…”

Song Ying blinked her eyes suggestively. “I understand, I understand. Hurry up and go, then. If you don’t come back tonight, I’ll come up with some excuse to explain to the dormitory leader.”

Ning Yao’s face turned red when she heard that. She reached out to pat Song Ying’s perky butt. “Why are you looking at me like that? I didn’t come back for those two days because of an accident, an accident!”

But Song Ying nimbly dodged Ning Yao’s hand like a little monkey as she laughed and ran away, waving her hands as she ran. “I know, it’s an accident of love!”

Ning Yao sighed helplessly and walked out of the school. She was afraid that Clarence would wait for her for too long, so she took a taxi to Moonlight Lotus Pond.
