Rebirth: The Courtyard Bride Is Cool and Radiant novel Chapter 425

Chapter 425: Chapter 425 Huo Jiayuan’s Resolute Departure

Du Shujian was so flustered, the tip of his nose broke out in a sweat. "Jia Yuan, what are you doing here?" he asked.

Huo Jiayuan felt a sharp pang in her heart, but her expression remained composed. "I was just passing by."

The moment he heard this, he knew it was an excuse. "So, are you heading home now, or going somewhere else?"

Huo Jiayuan glanced at the other girl. "I’ve finished my business and was about to go home. You two seem busy, so I’ll leave you to it."

If they were truly to become strangers, there was no point arguing with him anymore. It didn’t matter now. With that thought, she nodded to the other girl and turned to leave.

Du Shujian reached out to stop her, but Huo Jiayuan walked away resolutely.

Seeing her reaction, Du Shujian knew Jia Yuan was truly angry this time. Ignoring Lin Nana behind him, he hurried after Huo Jiayuan. "Jia Yuan, my family asked me to pick someone up! Please, don’t misunderstand."

"What’s there to misunderstand? It’s not like we have any real relationship."

True. They had been dating, but it had never been made public. How was that different from having no relationship at all? She understood now. The Du Family was likely trying to matchmake Du Shujian with Lin Nana. Regardless of Du Shujian’s own feelings, he had undeniably been seeing another girl behind her back. Ultimately, she had been too naive.
