Reborn As Lucky Star-Chapter 160 - : Something Strange

Chapter 160: Chapter 160: Something Strange

Yue Jiannan unknowingly walked towards the back of the school gate.

The road was filled with various noisy sounds, but Yue Jiannan felt as if he was cut off from the world, unable to hear anything.

He watched the endless stream of people, and for a moment, felt utterly disheartened.

He even thought about just throwing himself in front of a truck and ending it all.

But in that moment, he suddenly thought of Yue Qingqing.

The child was still waiting for him in the porter’s lodge.

Yue Jiannan, as if waking from a dream, suddenly shivered violently.

It seemed that only in that moment did he return to the real world.

He hurriedly went back to school.

Upon entering the porter’s lodge, Yue Qingqing was chatting with Old Zhang, who was so delighted that he couldn’t stop smiling.

He was rummaging through the cabinet to find something for her to eat.

“Uncle!” Yue Qingqing suddenly turned her head and saw Yue Jiannan.

Before Yue Jiannan could approach, she quickly walked over and stretched her arms to embrace her uncle.

“Uncle, hug me.”

Yue Jiannan held the soft, little bundle.

Even though he was an adult and Yue Qingqing was still a child,

he felt as if he found some kind of strength from her.

The turmoil inside him slowly calmed down, a feeling of being healed enveloped his whole body.

“Uncle will take you home now.”

Yue Qingqing looked up and into Yue Jiannan’s eyes.

“I was good, waiting for you, I knew you wouldn’t leave Qingqing behind.”

Yue Jiannan took a deep breath, his nose slightly tingling.

The road home seemed longer than when he came, yet he felt two completely different emotions.

Yue Jiannan watched the flying dust outside the window, beginning to think calmly about what to do.

The sourness of a young, naive first love meeting betrayal was bound to bear bitter fruit.

Yue Jiannan thought he could swallow this bitterness as if nothing had happened.

But the Yue Family couldn’t.

He wasn’t stupid; now that he thought about it, many things seemed suspicious.

Even the arranged meeting at the beginning was off.

The Yu Family was a major household in the village, and the village always followed the principle of matching families of similar status.

Although the Yue Family had developed quickly over the last three years, at that time, they weren’t likely to catch the attention of the Yu Family.

Yet, after just one meeting, he and Yu Yaxian were settled.

Given the Yu Family’s status, the idea of marriage fraud seemed particularly absurd.

Under normal circumstances, the Yu Family had no reason to do something that could potentially destroy their reputation.

There might be some hidden issues he didn’t know about.

Having regained his composure, Yue Jiannan finally found some clues, but he needed to discuss them with his family.

Yue Jiannan managed to keep his cool.

He waited until after dinner to bring up the matter when Zhang Ying asked how his visit with his wife went.

“What?!”

Wang Xiaoni could barely hold onto her chopsticks, unable to believe her ears.

“How could… That’s impossible.”

It was fortunate that Yue Jiannan waited until everyone was nearly done eating, or else none would have had an appetite.

Lin Chunju asked him, “Are you sure? It’s not a misunderstanding? A woman’s reputation is very important; we can’t just accuse someone wrongly.”

Yue Jiannan nodded, “I heard and saw everything clearly.”

Zhang Ying kept muttering back and forth, “How could… There are really people like that in the world.”

Yue Jiandong analyzed from a more rational perspective.

“I think the latter part of what our third brother said was quite right, there’s probably more to the Yu Family’s story.”

Yue Jianxi said in confusion: “But the village hasn’t heard anything.”

Daye Village was just a speck of a place; if the Yu Family had any significant issues, they would know.

Yue Jiandong said gravely, “If it’s not in the village, maybe something happened in the city, doesn’t Yu Yaxian’s uncle live in the city?”

“But if there really was an issue, it would have been three years ago, how can we find out now?”

Yue Jiandong, no longer the person he once was, had the savvy far beyond that of Daye Village through years of experience.

“No worries, I’ll think of something. Anything that has happened will leave a trace, our family can’t just let this go.”
