247 Chasing People Away
Xu Meng waved her hands and took out the tonics that her family had asked her to bring. “These are the tonics that my mother asked me to bring. My father asked me to bring five kilos of beef bones. He said that you should eat whatever you want. There’s no mistake.”
He Miao could not help but laugh. “How can I eat so much? I’d better take it back for Uncle and Auntie to eat together.”
Xu Meng immediately pouted unhappily and said, “You’re not treating me as a good friend anymore! What’s our relationship? It’s just five kilograms of bones, and it won’t cost much. Let Jing Yan’s chef make some soup for you, it’s especially nourishing.”
She was afraid that He Miao would reject her again, so she quickly stuffed the bag into Jing Yan’s hands and said with a smile, “President Jing, please take good care of my Miaomiao.”
Jing Yan narrowed his eyes. He was very dissatisfied with the way she called He Miao, so he could not help but correct her, “It’s my family’s Miaomiao.”
Xu Meng looked at the two of them laughing happily. After a while, she remembered that Li Ming was still standing by the side. She quickly put away her smile and said, “The students in the class also know about what happened on the internet, so they specially appointed the class rep as a representative to visit you at the hospital. They were afraid of disturbing your recovery, so they didn’t dare to come together.”
“I’ll thank my classmates for their concern.” He Miao smiled and nodded at Li Ming. “And thank you for coming to the hospital to see me, class rep.”
Li Ming could hear the closeness in her words. After enduring a burst of sadness, he said calmly, “As the class representative, you should be concerned about your classmates. You don’t have to be so polite with me.”
“You should be polite.” Jing Yan glared at him without mercy and sneered. “Now that you’ve seen her, isn’t it a little inappropriate to stay in her ward for too long?”
“Jing Yan.” He Miao wanted to reach out to hold his hand and stop him from saying that.
In any case, Li Ming was doing it out of good intentions. He took time out of his family’s reunion day to visit her in the hospital. How could they take chase him away?
On his way here, Li Ming had already anticipated Jing Yan’s arrival. Seeing the two of them being so sweet, he still did not want to give up and wanted to see it with his own eyes before he could let go.
Now that he saw that the two of them had completely treated him as an outsider, he immediately laughed bitterly and raised his eyes that were filled with disappointment. “It’s not very good. Then I’ll take my leave first. He Miao, you have to rest well. I’ll come to see you with Xu Meng in a while.”
After he finished speaking, he turned around and walked out of the ward without looking back. His fists were clenched tightly by his sides.
Seeing him leave, Xu Meng subconsciously stood up and chased after him. She suddenly thought of He Miao behind her and stopped in her tracks. She turned to look at her with wet eyes.
He Miao knew what she was thinking and smiled helplessly. “If you want to go, just go. Don’t worry about me.”
Xu Meng pursed her lips guiltily and said, “I’ll be back to have dinner with you in a while.” Then, she hurriedly chased after him.
Jing Yan and He Miao were the only ones left in the ward.
Jing Yan put the things Xu Meng had brought to the side, then walked back with a bowl of freshly heated milk and stuffed it into He Miao’s hands.
In order for He Miao to have enough milk when she was hospitalized, he had specially asked someone to bring in a microwave and a small fridge large enough for her to use. It was filled to the brim with her favorite milk, and the single ward was decorated like a home.
He Miao took the steaming hot milk, not knowing how to vent the anger in her heart. She could only raise her beautiful eyes and glare at him, wishing she could pierce a hole through his body.
After a while, Jing Yan washed some fruits and put them in her hand. Sensing that she was still angry, he sighed and said in a low voice, “You want to quarrel with me over another man?”
He Miao did not want to argue with him, but she and the class rep were just ordinary friends. She really did not need to let a classmate who came to visit her come in and drive him away without even taking a sip of water. It was too rude.
Jing Yan pursed his lips in dissatisfaction. He took a shiny grape and put it in her mouth. “Have one and you won’t be angry anymore, okay? I promise I won’t chase him away the next time he comes, okay?”
He Miao sighed and opened her mouth to eat the grape. Feeling the sweet taste in her mouth, the anger in her heart inexplicably disappeared. She said helplessly, “You really can’t do this again next time. He came to visit us because of his good intentions. He’s our guest, so we have to treat him well.”
“I know.” Jing Yan did not want to argue with her at this time. He had achieved his goal, so he would listen to whatever He Miao said. If he wanted to go against Li Ming again, he would have other ways.
Xu Meng chased after him for a while. She did not know what she said to Li Ming, but when she came back, she was a little dejected.
He Miao glanced at Jing Yan and said indifferently, “I’m hungry, let’s go buy some food. Mengmeng probably hasn’t eaten yet.”
Jing Yan knew that she was trying to send him away, so he held her chin and unhappily kissed her on the lips as an errand fee. Then he walked out of the ward with a satisfied expression.
