Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Ning Yao’s heart skipped a beat when she saw He Huai looking like he wasn’t in a good mood.

How could she say something like that with her status?

However, it was too late for regrets. Ning Yaocould only soften her voice and say, “Thank you for your kind intentions. I didn’t make it clear what I wanted to eat. Next time we eat, let me order the food. Then, it won’t be a waste.”

He Huai looked up and saw the young girl looking at him gently, as if… she was comforting him?

His originally depressed heart melted in an instant.

“Alright, I’ll listen to you,” said He Huai as the corners of his lips curled up. His smile was sexy and charming, dumbfounding Ning Yao.

‘Boss, please don’t smile at me like that… Which person is able to stand this?’

Ning Yaohurriedly picked up the teacup beside her and drank some tea to hide her inner panic.

Suddenly, Ning Yao’s phone rang.

She took out her phone and saw a photo of a thick black snake coiled on a tree branch.

“What is this?” He Huai saw the photo and frowned.

This snake was too ugly.

“I was once saved by a huge snake. He said that he wanted me to be his wife and give birth to his baby snakes.” Ning Yaowas immersed in her memories as a smile appeared on her face.

Hearing this, He Huai silently puffed out his chest, his eyes filled with pride.

It seemed that his wife had not forgotten the promise she had made with him all these years.

Just as he was feeling happy, Ning Yaofrowned in embarrassment.

“However, the junior high school biology book said that there is reproductive isolation between species, so I can’t have baby snakes. In order to fulfill my promise, I found him a female snake as his new wife.”

After explaining, Ning Yaolooked at the photo and nodded with satisfaction. “I’ve been looking for a female snake for a long time. This one is the prettiest I’ve found. I think it will like it…”

The more he listened, the uglier his expression became. Finally, he couldn’t help but say in a deep voice, “How do you know it likes female snakes?”

Ning Yaowas stunned.

Eh? Could it be that snakes also had special orientations?

“Then…I’ll find a male one?”

He Huai was speechless.

He looked at the big, ugly black snake in the photo and held his forehead with his hand, unable to express his feelings.

“Mr. He, are you feeling unwell?” asked Ning Yaowith concern.

He Huai waved his hand to show that he was fine.

He was not going to tell Ning Yaothat he was the savior she had met when she was young, so he could only pretend that he didn’t know anything. This really made him feel bad.

“What are you going to do on the weekend?” He Huai naturally changed the topic.

“Well, I’ll review a few subjects first…” Ning Yaothought for a while and then said, “And then go to a lecture.”

“What lecture?” asked the man casually.

“A very famous finance professor came to our school to give a lecture. I’m not sure if you’ve heard of him.” Ning Yaosaid the name of the senior.

“Hmm.” He Huai didn’t even try to hide the disdain in his eyes. “He can only fool you young people.”

Ning Yaofelt that He Huai was sometimes very approachable, but sometimes he was so cold that she didn’t dare to get close to him. For example, the way he was mocking that academic big shot now as if he didn’t care about anyone at all.

“You don’t believe me?” He Huai glanced at Ning Yao, as if he had guessed her thoughts.

“No, I just haven’t listened to that professor’s lecture, so I don’t have much to say,” said Ning Yaoobediently.

“I’ll be there too. I’d like to see what he’s going to say to fool people this time.” He Huai’s slender fingers gently tapped on the table as he sneered.

Ning Yaoimmediately straightened her back. What? The boss wanted to go to the lecture with her?

“Alright,” said she. She nodded politely.”I’ll send you the time and place then.”

She would obey her boss’s request unconditionally.

After lunch, the two of them went downstairs. At the elevator, a seven or eight-year-old boy suddenly rushed out from the opposite side with a cup of iced watermelon in his hand.

The little boy ran very fast and bumped into Ning Yaowho then felt a cold liquid spill onto her clothes.

She was wearing high heels, so she could not maintain her balance and was about to fall backward.

He Huai reached out his hand immediately, trying to pull her back.

However, the water from the watermelon ice also spilled onto the ground which He Huai slipped on. As he pulled Ning Yao, he accidentally pressed his other hand on her chest.
