The Male Lead Suddenly Became My Lapdog after I Annulled Our Engagement

174 Attending The Gala

When He Miao returned home, she was met with Onion’s resentful eyes.

He Miao quickly picked it up and carefully coaxed it in her arms.

She had been too busy to play with Onion for the past few days and had locked it in the room all day. It had liked to stick to her since it was young. The little thing was very intelligent and might think that she did not want it anymore.

That was what Jing Yan thought. This woman had been busy for two days and had not contacted him. Now, he was so angry that he wanted to tear her apart and eat her up so that she could be with him all the time.

He Miao gently smoothed Onion’s fur, then carried it to the bathroom to take a shower.

Jing Yan glared at the girl who was taking off less and less of her clothes. He could not help but glance at her from time to time until she saw a pair of slender long legs. He could not help but howl and rush to the corner of the bathroom to reflect on his mistakes.

“What’s wrong with you? Did you get scalded?” He Miao tested the water temperature. It was the same temperature as Onion’s every time he took a bath.

She frowned in confusion and took out Onion that had shrunk into the corner again. She put it under the shower to bathe it.

“Be good, it’ll be over soon.” He Miao applied a layer of shower gel on it and carefully avoided its eyes before she picked up the shower head again to wash it clean.

From the beginning to the end, Jing Yan’s body was stiff and he did not dare to move. Every part she touched felt like it was on fire. He Miao kept looking at her chest, but he held his breath and closed his eyes, trying hard not to let his thoughts run wild.

Even if they were already a couple, he would never allow this stupid dog’s body to touch her private area, let alone the fact that he had yet to confirm his relationship with He Miao. Just the thought of it made his heart ache.

Finally, after taking a shower, Jing Yan rushed out of the bathroom in a panic, ignoring the wet fur on his body. He shrank into the bath towel he had prepared earlier and wrapped his trembling dog body.

“Onion, are you feeling unwell?” He Miao hurriedly washed off the shower gel on her body and followed it in a towel.

She squatted in front of Onion’s kennel and patted its head gently. “I’ll dry it for you now. Be careful not to catch a cold.”

She took the hairdryer that was specially prepared for Onion, adjusted the temperature, and slowly dried its fur.

Jing Yan felt that it was really uncomfortable to stay in the bath towel. The fur all over his body was stuck together, and he would shiver from the cold as long as a light breeze blew.

Resigned to his fate, he crawled out of the bath towel, closed his eyes, and let He Miao do what she wanted with him. Suddenly, an absurd thought rose in his heart.

All of a sudden, he wanted He Miao to bathe him in his normal state just like that.

Just thinking about it made Jing Yan’s throat dry and uncomfortable. Just as he was letting his thoughts run wild, the girl’s nagging suddenly disappeared. When he opened his eyes again, he was back in the empty office.

Jing Yan sighed and looked at the time on his watch. His time as a dog was getting shorter and shorter, which meant that if He Miao continued to be as busy as she was now, he might not even be able to see her once a week.

As soon as this thought appeared in his mind, his face completely sank. The pale moonlight seeped in through the floor-to-ceiling window and shone evenly on his face.

The next day was the day that He Miao and Xia Yan would be attending the party together. After school, she packed her things and met Xia Yan at the school gate.

After getting into her car, the two of them went to Sen Wen’s place to get their styling done in advance.

Jing Yan watched silently as He Miao got into someone else’s car and drove off, not even noticing that his car was parked behind.

He took out his phone and called Chen Zhao. He said coldly, “Check He Miao’s recent schedule for me. I want to know where she’s going and who she’s with tonight.”

“Yes.” Following Jing Yan, Chen Zhao had developed a decisive personality. After receiving the mission, he immediately started investigating. Using technical means, he found clues in a short while.

“President Jing, Miss He is going to a party hosted by the Xia Corporation tonight. I’ll send you the location.”

After receiving the message, Jing Yan hung up the phone and drove to the party venue expressionlessly.

If he did not remember wrongly, the owner of the car just now was the only daughter of the Xia family, Xia Yan. He actually did not know when she had gotten together with Xia Yan, much less her real motive.

All of a sudden, Jing Yan realized that ever since he left school and took over the company, he and He Miao were no longer two intersecting lines, but two parallel lines that had nothing to do with each other.

He would not allow himself to leave He Miao’s world just like that.

He Miao did not know that Jing Yan would come to see her today. She and Xia Yan talked and laughed as they got their hair done. In her hands was a luxurious satchel that she had spent a huge sum of money on, which was filled with the ‘weapons’ that she had prepared for the party.

At the party, He Miao followed Xia Yan into the lobby. The moment she appeared in everyone’s line of sight, everyone who had come to welcome Xia Yan all turned to look at her.
