No matter what happened, Yang Nian wouldn’t have anything to do with Yao Tangin the future. After all, in the papers, Yao Tangwas just her cousin.
Yao Ran took a deep breath.
If he were to openly admit it, then Old Madame Yao would also have no other choice but to OK the union.
Unless she didn’t mind giving Yao Tang the reputation of being a homewrecker.
Feeling Yao Ran’s gaze on her, Yan Wei’s lips quirked up into a smile. The former woman quickly ducked her head as if she hadn’t done anything wrong.
“That’s right. Just as everyone had guessed, I do have a fiance.”
Everyone’s jaw dropped.
He had actually admitted to it!
But why was he betraying his fiance like this?
At that moment, another person from International Middle School spoke up, “Then who’s your fiance? Do you plan on breaking off the engagement? Have you already considered everything?”
Everyone nodded in agreement.
A complicated look flashed in their eyes as they stared at the young couple, not really knowing what to think.
Initially, Yao Ran was afraid that Yang Nianwouldn’t willingly admit that he had a fiance, but now that he had, it seemed that she could finally rest easy.
She slowly relaxed in her seat.
If Yang Nian didn’t say that she was his fiance, then he’d become a scoundrel who had betrayed his engagement.
Yao Ran’s heart filled with confidence as her gaze swept around the crowd.
There, she could see Yao Tang leaning against one of the columns. Her arms were crossed, and there was an unreadable expression in her eyes.
Yao Ran hid a smirk and lowered her head. Her plan was working after all.
“Ranran, did you know that Young Master Yang has a fiance?” Yan Weiasked, tilting her head.
When Yao Ran heard this, she instantly understood what the woman meant.
She hesitated at first as if she wasn’t really sure what to say. Finally, she glanced over at Yang Nian, her fingers twitching.
Yang Nian finally nodded.
“I do have a fiance,” he said. “She’s also at the banquet.”
What? The entire floor was in an uproar as they looked at one another, trying to make sure if they had heard it right.
Among the exchange students of International Middle School, they all knew that Yan Wei wasn’t his fiance. Otherwise, they would’ve made it known early on.
However…there was one guest who they didn’t know who seemed to be quite close to Yang Nian.
That was Yao Ran.
In fact, she had been close to him ever since the transfer.
They gazed at Yao Ran suspiciously and she quickly ducked her head. The tips of her ears were red, and her cheeks were flushed.
They all understood now.
If Yao Ran was his fiance, then it would be reasonable for him to be more intimate with her.
“Ah, so you’re in a relationship. I really misunderstood the situation.”
“I knew it.”
“He really isn’t that kind of a person.”
Yang Nian gazed at the crowd, ignoring their comments, looking as if he was searching for someone.
Once he had seen what he needed to see, he announced, “My fiance is none other than Yao Tang.”
Suddenly, everyone fell silent.
They had all prepared to hear that his engaged-to-be was Yao Ran. What they didn’t expect was to hear a different name.
Yao Tang..
Then it wasn’t Yao Ran?
What was going on?
Everyone furrowed their eyebrows as they lifted their eyes up at the young master. However, he really wasn’t looking at Yao Ran, but rather, a figure in the back.
Following his gaze, everyone saw Yao Tang leaning against the pillar with a glass of wine in her hand.
So it was Yao Tang, and not Yao Ran?
As soon as Yang Nian said these words, Yao Ran’s face instantly paled, and the smile on her face froze.
Even Yao Tang paused as she felt everyone’s eyes on her.
