207 Leaving In A Hurry
“I’m here to accompany my girlfriend to a party.” Jing Yan held He Miao’s hand with a smug look on his face. Under everyone’s watchful eyes, he even brought her little hand to his lips and kissed it.
He Miao retracted her hand as if she had been electrocuted. She raised her head and glared at him with a red face. “You’re getting more and more daring.”
“Yes, yes, yes, I won’t dare to.” Jing Yan raised his eyebrows, held her hand, and found a quiet place to sit. He also took some desserts to her taste.
“Wow, Miaomiao, you two were so lovey-dovey just now. I’m so jealous.” Xu Meng’s eyes were sparkling. She took two glasses of fruit juice and placed them on the table, then adjusted her skirt and sat down next to He Miao.
“Li Ming is over there.” Jing Yan unceremoniously took a glass of fruit juice and drank it, then gestured for her to look at the man who was talking and laughing with others on the other side.
Xu Meng’s face turned red instantly. She hid behind He Miao shyly, not forgetting to say in an aggrieved tone, “Look at your man chasing me away. You’re not even speaking up for me, my dear Miaomiao.”
“With me here, no one can chase you away.” He Miao glanced at Jing Yan in amusement, then pretended to pat her good friend’s head and gently consoled her.
Only then did Xu Meng raise her head from behind her. She straightened her back and looked up at Jing Yan smugly. “Did you hear that? If Miaomiao won’t let me go, don’t even think about chasing me away and occupying Miaomiao!”
Jing Yan glared at Xu Meng in anger and decided not to argue with a little girl. However, he still looked at He Miao with a bit of resentment in his eyes.
Although other people’s gazes were always on her, He Miao enjoyed her meal that night. Jing Yan was also happy to feed her. All kinds of food were fed to her, and she looked like a little hamster.
The dance party soon reached the climax, and the crowd cheered for He Miao and Jing Yan to be the lead dancers.
He Miao also looked at Jing Yan expectantly, but the latter suddenly stood up, half of his face hidden in the darkness.
“I’ll be leaving first, I’ll come pick you up later.”
“You’re leaving?” He Miao stood up and took his hand.
“Yes.” Jing Yan looked at the time, cupped her little face, and kissed her forehead. “Have fun, but stay away from some people. Be good.”
Watching the person who had been with her leave, He Miao felt a little lost. She had long been used to having Jing Yan by her side. Now that he suddenly said he wanted to leave, she actually could not bear for him to leave from the bottom of her heart.
“Miaomiao, does Jing Yan have something urgent to do?” Xu Meng shook the dazed He Miao and asked worriedly, “Are you alright?”
“I’m fine.” He Miao forced a smile. Seeing that all her classmates’ eyes were on her, she suddenly felt embarrassed. She lifted the hem of her dress and did a standard princess curtsy, trying to ease the atmosphere. “The ball has just started. Miss Xu, would you like to dance with me?”
The surrounding students came back to their senses, and the atmosphere became lively again.
Xu Meng pretended to be shy and put her hand in hers. The two of them walked elegantly to the dance floor hand in hand.
One after another, the students found their dance partners and started dancing on the dance floor. They did not care if their dance steps were correct or not. They just wanted to join in the lively atmosphere and enjoy the dance with everyone.
The dark room was a sharp contrast to the lively atmosphere of the venue. Jing Yan opened his sad eyes and pounded the bed with his furry claws.
If it was not for the fact that it was almost time for him to become this stupid dog, he would not have left He Miao at this time and let her hold someone else’s hand at the ball, letting someone hold her slender waist and dance to her heart’s content.
Thinking of He Miao dancing with who-knows-who right now, Jing Yan wished he could break his teeth.
A pair of dog eyes glinted in the dark as he stared at the clock on the wall. He finally managed to catch the time, but the moment Jing Yan returned to his body, he almost jumped out of the car and rushed to the dance party.
He Miao had been dancing with Xu Meng the whole time, and her feet were sore. She was resting in her seat.
One of the students in the hall noticed the figure standing at the door first, and then one after another, they stared at the man at the door and forgot what to do.
The song was still going on, but the venue had strangely quieted down.
He Miao looked in surprise at her classmate’s frozen movements. Suddenly, she looked towards the door and met Jing Yan’s pitch-black eyes.
She stood up subconsciously, but her ankles seemed to have been worn out. The edge of her high heels accidentally rubbed against the wound, causing a piercing pain.
Jing Yan furrowed his brows slightly. Seeing her pained expression, he strode over and carried her in his arms. “What happened to your leg?”
“It seems like a part of it has been scratched.” He Miao obediently snuggled into his arms, her muffled voice coming from his chest. “Where have you been? Done with work?”
“Yes.” Jing Yan nodded and walked out of the venue with her in his arms.
