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

178 Sweet

After Jing Yan walked He Miao home, he was still in a daze. He grabbed her hand and was reluctant to let go. “Why don’t you let me sleep on the sofa? I won’t sleep on the bed, okay?”

“No, you’re tired. You should go back and sleep.” He Miao looked up and smiled. She walked up to him and kissed his cheek gently.

Without waiting for Jing Yan to catch her, He Miao reacted quickly and scurried back into her house, slamming the door shut with a bang.

Jing Yan looked at the tightly shut door and narrowed his eyes. He suddenly shook his head and smiled helplessly. He covered the side of his face where she had kissed him just now and went upstairs happily.

There was not much time left in the night, but he still felt that it was extremely long.

The next morning, Jing Yan impatiently tidied himself up and went downstairs to pick up He Miao.

Every time their gazes met in the air, it would cause a burst of sweet sparks.

Even now, Jing Yan still could not believe that He Miao would really admit that she liked him. In fact, it was not that he did not sense the change in He Miao’s attitude towards him, but he did not dare to push her too hard, afraid that he would scare her away.

However, when all of this became a reality, he suddenly could not believe it. He was afraid that this was just a dream without any reason. When he woke up, He Miao still hated him and wanted to break off the engagement with him.

At the school gate, Jing Yan held her hand and said in a sweet and intoxicating voice, “I’ll pick you up tonight. Let me know if you miss me, okay?”

“Don’t you have work to do tonight?” He Miao asked, blinking. She did not want Jing Yan to delay his work because of her.

“I’m not busy. I’ll pick you up tonight to visit Grandpa.” Jing Yan could not wait to break the news to Old Master Jing.

He Miao nodded. She had been too busy recently and had not visited her grandfather for a few days. Now that she had confirmed her relationship with Jing Yan, she should go and share the good news with him.

He Miao’s face reddened at the thought of how they had hugged and confessed to each other last night. She flung his hand away and said, “You’re not allowed to pull and tug at each other at the school gate. I’m going to class now. You can pick me up at the school gate tonight.”

Watching her leave, Jing Yan, who had been inexplicably lectured by his girlfriend, touched his nose innocently. He turned around and opened the car door. He glanced coldly at the students around him, and his cold eyes made the already shocked students shiver.

The news about Jing Yan and He Miao’s situation at school spread like wildfire, but no one dared to post it online. Everyone just spread the news verbally.

Mu Xiao was the first to look for He Miao after class. He looked at her in disbelief. “You’re really going to agree to go out with Brother Yan?”

“Yes, what’s wrong?” He Miao looked at him in confusion.

Mu Xiao shook his head and suddenly felt a little silly. Jing Yan had liked He Miao for a long time, and it was normal for them to confirm their relationship. What was there to be surprised about?

It was just hard on his silly cousin.

Mu Xiao left the building of the Fragrance and Perfumes Department and called Zhou Zhu. “Don’t think about pestering He Miao anymore. She’s already Jing Yan’s girlfriend.”

“When did this happen?” Zhou Zhu could not help but curse a few words, but he only shut her mouth after being scolded by Mu Xiao. He said sadly, “It’s all your fault. You had to tell my dad about this. If he didn’t keep an eye on me and make me report to the company every day, He Miao might have been mine!”

Mu Xiao facepalmed, speechless. He took a deep breath impatiently. “Anyway, don’t even think about hitting on He Miao in the future. You could say it was a fair competition before, but she’s Jing Yan’s now. If you keep messing around, your father and I won’t be able to protect you.”

“Cousin, you’re not loyal!”

Zhou Zhu kept scolding him, and Mu Xiao hung up the phone in frustration. He wanted to smoke a cigarette to calm his anger, but he suddenly remembered that he was in campus. He pouted and went back to the classroom to pack his things and leave.

Jing Yan did not even come to class now, so it was boring for him to sit here alone and listen to a group of rigid, machine-like teachers talking. He might as well go out and have some fun.

After school, Jing Yan was waiting at the school gate twenty minutes in advance. When he saw He Miao, he quickly got out of the car to help her carry her things. He opened the car door and asked, “Did you miss me?”

“No, I didn’t,” He Miao sat in the car fiercely, not intending to cooperate with the sweet atmosphere that Jing Yan had created.

Jing Yan snorted and started the car. He stuffed the things he had prepared in his pocket into her hand.

“What is this?” He Miao opened it curiously and saw that it was a very delicate and beautiful watch.

“Why are you giving me this? It’s very expensive, right? I don’t need it.” He Miao waved her hand to refuse and put the things in the drawer in the front passenger seat.

Jing Yan glanced at her and slammed on the brakes. He took out the watch again and put it on for her.

“This is to remind you to think of me every day and don’t forget the time. When I can’t come to pick you up at night, you have to go home early.”

“I know.” He Miao pursed her lips and held back her laughter. She took out a black rubber band that she often used from her bag and put it around his hand. “Then I’ll give this to you. You have to remember to take good care of yourself.”
