After the two of them sat down and ordered their food, Ning Meng suddenly saw a familiar figure.

On the south side of the restaurant, a man in a suit was talking to a few well-dressed socialites. The man’s face was full of arrogance, and that disgusting and hypocritical smile was familiar to Ning Yao.

Ning Yao did not expect to see Yang Yuan here. She suddenly lost her appetite and her expression turned ugly.

Clarence quickly noticed her unusual behavior and asked, “What’s wrong?”

Ning Yao frowned. “I just saw someone I don’t like. I don’t want to eat here anymore.”

A few minutes later.

“Mr. Yang? What are you looking at?” The woman with heavy makeup smiled coyly and poked at Yang Yuan’s chest.

Yang Yuan looked away and thought, ‘I must have been mistaken, how could Ning Yao come here to eat?’

However, when he thought of Ning Yao, he suddenly felt uncomfortable.

After he returned to the country, no matter where he went, there was no lack of women who would come to please him. He was rich and handsome, so which woman wouldn’t want to marry him? But Ning Yao wanted to break off their engagement!

Apart from taking over the company, Yang Yuan had another important matter to attend to when he decided to return.

He was prepared to spend some effort to win over Ning Yao, to make her fall in love with him, and then he would dump her.

He wanted her to know that she had no right to reject him. He was the one who didn’t want her!

He had just seen that a woman’s back that looked very much like Ning Yao’s, and the image of Ning Yao’s angelic face and enchanting figure suddenly appeared in his mind.

To be honest, none of the women present could compare to Ning Yao.

He couldn’t wait to sleep with her.

As soon as they walked out of the restaurant, Ning Yao felt much better. She turned to Clarence and said, “I’m really sorry, Mr. He, for not being able to have dinner with you here.”

“It’s fine, I’m just here to accompany you, but… Since I haven’t had dinner yet, why don’t you cook me one?”

“Oh?” Ning Yao was stunned. “But my cooking skills are just average.”

She had only learned how to cook after leaving home. At first, she didn’t know anything, so she had to learn little by little from a video blogger. In the end, she could barely make a few simple dishes, and she had never cooked for anyone before.

“It’s fine, as long as it is edible. Let’s go to my house,” said Clarence, not giving her a chance to refuse.

A moment later, the two arrived at Rose Garden in the city center.

Rose Garden was a housing area filled with luxury houses priced at hundreds of millions. Many big-name celebrities and rich people in the country bought houses here.

Clarence’s residence covered an area of about four thousand square meters and the property certificate covered about 1780 square meters. It included a large garden and a swimming pool.

Although Ning Yao’s family was rich, they were not rich enough to buy a villa like this. After entering the house, Ning Yao thought to herself that this must be what it meant to truly be rich.

Clarence led her into the living room and briefly explained the layout of the house to her. Then, as if he had suddenly remembered something, he turned around and walked to the cabinet. He took out a key and handed it to Ning Yao.

“This is the key to my house.”

Ning Yao was a little shocked. Why did he give her the key?

Clarence explained, “Giving you this will make it more convenient for you to work, especially when I need you to help me deliver anything. I don’t usually like having outsiders in my home when I’m around so my servants live behind my villa. This means that if you ever had to come over to my place, no one might open the door for you.”

After the explanation, Ning Yao slowly reached out and accepted the key.

“Let’s cook first. I’ll show you Black after we’re done. I don’t usually use the kitchen, but it’s fully equipped.” Clarence led Ning Yao to the kitchen.

There were two double-door refrigerators in the kitchen filled with many fresh vegetables and fruits in them, as well as some semi-finished ingredients.

Ning Yao found an apron and put it on. As she was about to put her hands behind her waist to tie the apron, Clarence took the strings and said softly, “I’ll do it. ”

Ning Yao did not dare to move.

As the man helped her put on her apron, they looked like any ordinary couple as the kitchen seemed to be filled with a warm atmosphere.

Clarence looked down at Ning Yao’s slender and fair neck. He really wanted to kiss her, but he resisted the urge.

He didn’t want to scare her, so he decided to take it slow.

After putting on the apron, Ning Yao started to prepare the ingredients while Clarence went to take a shower.

By the time he was done with his shower, Ning Yao was done cooking and had set the table.

Clarence wanted to tear up at the sight of Ning Yao’s dishes.
