Chapter 41: Quarreling

Jing Yan had never expected that this woman would ask him if he liked her so openly.

He clenched his fists by his side and suddenly looked up. His eyes were full of sarcasm and he even sneered. “He Miao, I thought you’d really given up. I didn’t expect you to still be so delusional.”

“So you don’t?” He Miao blinked her eyes and looked at him expectantly.

Jing Yan furrowed his brows under her gaze. After a long while, he finally replied, “I don’t.”

He Miao heaved a sigh of relief. She had finally avoided the fate of being a supporting female cannon fodder, and she did not want to be entangled with the male lead.

Although her guess had been proven wrong, she was in a good mood as she looked at Tian Tian, who was covering his eyes behind him, and said, “Then let’s not make things difficult for each other. You should coax him and make him forget about this.”

She was happy, but Jing Yan was not.

Just now, he had said that he did not like her. Seeing her walking toward the direction of Li Ming with a smile, Jing Yan subconsciously stopped in his tracks.

Tian Tian turned around and tugged at his sleeve in confusion. “Brother, aren’t we going over together?”

“The bet is over.” Jing Yan stood there coldly, his whole body exuding an aura that kept people away from him. Tian Tian was so scared that he took back his hand and looked at him.

That was right, they had used the fragrance-making competition as an excuse to follow He Miao. Now that he was not even going to watch the competition, what reason did they have to follow her?

“Big Brother, you can say that I want to play with Big Sister,” Tian Tian carefully suggested.

Jing Yan patted him on the head, which was a rare sight, and walked in the direction of the parking lot with an unsightly expression.

Tian Tian hurriedly followed after him. The little fatty walked slowly, so he had to run all the way to keep up with Jing Yan. He panted as he shouted, “Big Brother, if you don’t go, Big Sister will have to play with others!”

Jing Yan suddenly stopped and turned around to glare at him. His voice was frighteningly cold. It is her business who she wants to be with. I do not like her.

Jing Yan got into the car and punched the steering wheel. The sound of the car horn startled Tiantian.

“Brother, why are you so angry?” Tiantian pouted his lips and sat in the car quietly, not daring to provoke Jing Yan anymore.

“Your friend has already left?” Li Ming was still waiting at the entrance of the arena with Li Luo. When he saw He Miao return, he immediately smiled.

He Miao nodded and knelt down apologetically. She took Li Luo’s hand and said, “I haven’t had time to play with Luo Luo today. Where does Luo Luo want to go? We’ll go now.”

Li Luo cheered as she jumped into He Miao’s arms. Without that stupid fatty who always went against her, she could finally have her sister all to herself!

She hung around He Miao’s neck and smiled sweetly. “Luo Luo is hungry.”

“Then let’s go eat.” He Miao let go of Li Luo and held her hand. They went to a food street near the competition venue with Li Ming.

While they were eating, Li Ming inadvertently mentioned the activities that the university was organizing and asked tentatively, “There’s a sports meet in a few days, do you want to join?”

He Miao nodded without any hesitation. ‘If there’s a need, I’ll do my best.’

“That’s great.” Li Ming heaved a sigh of relief. She saw the doubt in He Miao’s eyes and explained to her carefully, “You’re new here, so you don’t know. When it comes to sports, eight out of ten girls in our class refuse to participate. If it weren’t for you, I’m afraid we wouldn’t have been able to gather enough people to participate in the events this time.”

He Miao smiled nonchalantly. “Although I can’t guarantee that I’ll get a good ranking, I can still make up for the number of people.”

“Just try your best.” Li Ming gratefully wanted to fill He Miao’s glass with Li Luo’s favorite fruit juice.

However, He Miao bought a bottle of milk and sat there drinking it.

“This is the first time I’ve seen someone who loves milk as much as you.” Liming smiled curiously.

“Drinking milk is good for the body.” He Miao gave a vague answer, not willing to dwell on this issue.

Li Ming smiled and patted Li Luo’s head. “Did you hear what Big Sister said? Luo Luo also needs to drink more milk so that she can be as beautiful as her when you grow up.”

He Miao’s hand that was holding the cup paused. She subconsciously looked at Li Ming and met his burning gaze. Li Luo’s sweet voice rang in his ears. “Luo Luo understands. Luo Luo will listen to Big Brother and Big Sister~”
