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

Chapter 138 - 138 Avoiding Suspicion



For the past week, in order not to affect her preparation for the competition, he did not dare to disturb her easily. Every time, he would sit in the corner of the laboratory until the alarm clock rang before he helplessly got up and went home.

Now, he finally had time to take a good look at his girl. She did not know how much he wanted to have a good talk with her this week.

Jing Yan’s original intention was to accompany her no matter what if He Miao asked him to go to the competition with her first. He did not expect her to carry him and leave with Xu Heng.

“You’re so cruel.” Jing Yan opened his eyes and turned to look at the girl with her back to him. He sighed. “If there’s a next time, I’ll definitely make you pay for this.”

As for how he should ask for it, that was a monstrous desire that Jing Yan had hidden deep in his heart, and he did not dare let He Miao know.

There was an undercurrent in his eyes. He followed the rules and did not cross the line drawn by the backpack. He sighed, turned around, and closed his eyes again with his back facing her.

He Miao, who was hiding behind the blanket, suddenly opened her eyes. She felt the person beside her turning over, and a hint of hesitation flashed through her eyes.

She did not let Jing Yan know that she had woken up. She just lay there quietly, listening to the sighing and the movements of turning over. She closed her eyes and went back to sleep.

When they woke up the next day, He Miao rushed to the bathroom to wash up, feeling refreshed. On the other side, Jing Yan, who had slept the entire night without a blanket, was slightly sick.

The air conditioner in the room was turned on a little low. He was woken up by the cold in the middle of the night, but he did not dare to act rashly, afraid that He Miao would wake up and drive him away. He could only endure the cold air until this morning.

After He Miao washed up, she leaned against the door and looked at him playfully. “Did you sleep well? Brother Yan?”

Jing Yan raised his eyes and glared at her. He felt that she had deliberately ignored him last night. He frowned but quickly dismissed the idea. He said in a nasal voice, “Not bad. I’ll go downstairs for breakfast after I pack up.”

“Still not enough.” He Miao raised an eyebrow. “My teacher is sleeping next door. If you go out with me, he’ll definitely see you. I won’t be able to explain myself then, so you’ll have to wait until I’m gone before you go out.”

Jing Yan gritted his teeth as he sat by the bed and stared at her. “You already planned this out yesterday.”

“I didn’t chase you away, did I?” He Miao blinked at him. “Otherwise, if someone else sees us living together, we’ll have to put in so much effort to clear things up. Why should we look for trouble?”

After saying that, she did not look at Jing Yan’s face and went to the bathroom to change her clothes. Then, she bade him farewell with a smile and left the room.

In the corridor, Xu Heng was waiting for her at the door. Seeing that she was not nervous about the upcoming competition and was in a good mood, he said with relief, “It seems like you have a plan for this match.”

“I will definitely not embarrass my teacher.”

He Miao’s cheeky reply drew Xu Heng’s attention. Based on his understanding of his favorite student, she always had a calm expression as if victory was in her grasp and would never easily reveal her emotions. He was very surprised by her frank promise today.

He glanced at the door behind He Miao, which had just been tightly shut, and tried to remind her, “Did you forget to bring your room card? Otherwise, why is the light still on in the room?”

Every hotel guest would be equipped with a room card, which was also the power switch of the entire room. If the room card was taken away, the power supply in the room would automatically be cut off. It was a good way for the hotel to save energy and reduce energy.

He Miao smiled calmly. “I did. It’s in my backpack. There might be a delay in the power outage.”

Xu Heng nodded doubtfully. The two of them had breakfast in the hotel restaurant and went to the competition site together.

When Jing Yan walked to the guest seat with a cold face, He Miao had already gone backstage to wait for the competition to start.

Everyone in the business world knew Jing Yan. Although he had not inherited the family business yet, he would be in charge of the family business sooner or later.

Without a doubt, he would be the future head of the Jing family.

Some of the more farsighted people had already started to approach him, trying to get close to him, but they were all scared away by Jing Yan’s dark face.

Everyone knew that Young Master Jing was in a terrible mood, so they naturally backed away and did not dare to provoke him again.

In the back of the audience, Xu Heng coldly looked at Jing Yan, who was sitting in front of him. He narrowed his eyes unhappily.

An old friend smiled and moved to Xu Heng’s side. He followed Xu Heng’s gaze to the commotion in front of them. When he saw that Xu Heng was looking at Jing Yan, he thought that Xu Heng had been away from the world for too long and did not know Jing Yan. He enthusiastically introduced him, “He is the only heir of the Jing family, Jing Yan!”

“I know,” Xu Heng relaxed his eyebrows and said indifferently.

It was precisely because he knew that he was unhappy.

Now, everyone in the department knew that he valued He Miao, so he naturally heard about her past.
