167 Birthday Party
After restoring her reputation, He Miao first sent Xia Yan a message, which she quickly replied with a big smile and agreed to help her pick out a dress and do her makeup next Tuesday.
Xu Meng was so excited that she kept sending her screenshots of her fans. Other than those who apologized to her, there was also a group of people crying and begging to buy He Miao’s handmade perfume.
He Miao carefully considered the time and replied indifferently, “Tell them that the perfume production is temporarily suspended. We’ll hype it up before the next new model is announced, so please look forward to it.”
“Okay!” After Xu Meng relayed her words to her fans, the group of people immediately expressed their anticipation for the goddess’ new work and said that they would support her greatly to make up for their previous mistakes.
Xu Meng was so happy that she scrolled through He Wei’s comments all night and only fell asleep the next morning.
The next morning, Xu Meng walked into the classroom with her dark panda eyes. When she saw He Miao, her panda eyes shone brightly. “You’re amazing! You can counterattack so quickly!”
“It’s all thanks to Jing Yan’s help.” He Miao smiled shyly and lowered her head to continue scribbling on her paper.
Xu Meng leaned over with a gossipy look and asked softly, “Goddess, so you left in such a hurry yesterday to see him. Tell me, which step are you at?”
“What do you mean by which step?” He Miao pushed her away gently, her blushing face tinged with sweetness. “Don’t talk nonsense. You should focus on your own business. I heard that it’s the class rep’s birthday this weekend. What are you planning to give him?”
“You even know that?” Xu Meng pouted in jealousy. “Do you know when my birthday is?”
“I know. I’ll definitely give you a big gift on your birthday.” He Miao promised her seriously.
Looking at her serious expression, Xu Meng was too embarrassed to tease her anymore. She pouted and moved closer to see what she was drawing, and said in distress, “I want to give him a special gift, but I can’t think of what to give him. Why don’t you help me think of something?”
“It’s special,” He Miao raised her eyes and thought for a moment, then suddenly smiled. “Why don’t you give him a love letter?”
“You’re bullying me on purpose, aren’t you?” Xu Meng pretended to reach out and scratch her.
“I can’t think of anything,” He Miao admitted. “Why don’t we go to the mall this weekend? Maybe we’ll get some inspiration then?”
“Alright!” Xu Meng clapped her hands happily and put her hands together in front of her chest. She murmured with a guilty face, “I hope the handsome Jing Yan won’t blame me. I’m only borrowing Miaomiao for one day. Please don’t blame me.”
He Miao shook her head in amusement. “I’m nobody to him. Do I need his permission to go anywhere?”
On the early morning of the weekend, He Miao got up and picked out a long white and blue gradient dress with a denim jacket. After putting on some simple makeup, she went to meet Xu Meng at the shopping mall.
When Xu Meng saw He Miao, she immediately hugged her in surprise. “My goddess, you’re so beautiful today. I’m so envious of your figure!”
“Mengmeng, if you praise me again, I’m going to float.” He Miao jokingly handed her a cup of milk tea he had just bought.
Xu Meng took it, took a big sip of milk tea, and said with a satisfied face, “Did you tell Jing Yan that you came out with me today?”
“I did.” He Miao answered honestly, “I received Jing Yan’s call after I was done with work last night. I told him about it. After all, we have an appointment to visit Grandpa Jing every weekend.”
“Ah?” Xu Meng’s eyes widened in horror and she asked, “Did he say how he was going to deal with me?”
“Why would he want to deal with you?” He Miao tilted his head and looked at her in confusion. “He only told us to have fun, then he hung up.”
Xu Meng’s hanging heart was finally put back into her stomach. She held He Miao’s hand and walked into the mall. They only walked out satisfied when they were both carrying bags.
There was also Li Ming’s birthday party that night at a hotel near the school. He invited the whole class. After the two of them hurriedly put their things at home, they each carried their gifts and rushed to the birthday party.
Li Ming stood at the door and saw the two figures from afar. He smiled brightly and waved at them, “You’re finally here. Come in with me.”
“Li Ming, I’m sorry we’re late.” When Xu Meng saw him, her sharp tongue would start to stammer.
He Miao nudged her from behind. She took a deep breath, mustered her courage, and handed him the gift she had carefully chosen. “Li Ming, this is my birthday present for you. Happy Birthday.”
“Thank you,” he said. After receiving the gift, Li Ming saw Xu Meng’s red ears and asked in surprise, “Are you very hot? Why don’t I arrange for you to sit near the air conditioner?”
“No need, no need. We’ll just do whatever we want.” Xu Meng quickly waved her hands and gave He Miao a look as if she was asking for help.
He Miao had no choice but to save her from embarrassment. She handed him her present and said, “Happy Birthday, class rep.”
Li Ming took the gift and stared at He Miao without blinking. “I’m already very happy that you’re here.”
