Chapter 272 - 272 Passing The Note

272 Passing The Note

Today was the first day of school, and the students who had not seen each other for the entire holiday were discussing how they had spent the new year.

He Miao sat in her seat and looked at the time on her phone a few times before Xu Meng finally arrived. She did not expect her to come to the classroom with the class representative, Li Ming.

As soon as she entered the door, Xu Meng jumped to her side happily and put her arm around her shoulder. “Little girl, did you miss me? Are you too busy being sweet with Jing Yan?”

Sitting in the front row, Li Ming’s hand that was taking out a textbook from his backpack suddenly froze. After a while, he returned to normal and continued to read his book as if nothing had happened.

He Miao smiled and leaned her head on her shoulder, teasing, “I’d like to ask if a certain someone missed me? Are you only thinking about your lover?”

“Don’t talk nonsense.” Xu Meng looked at Li Ming in front of her with blame. Seeing that he did not hear anything at all, she heaved a sigh of relief and could not help but lower her voice. “I met the class rep at the school gate this morning, I didn’t come to school with him!”

“Is that so?” He Miao raised her brows slightly and looked up from her shoulder. She smiled as she hugged her shoulders and carefully observed her unnatural expression. “Was it really a coincidence?”

Xu Meng immediately jumped up and covered He Miao’s mouth, as if someone had stepped on her tail. “Don’t say it, don’t say it. Be careful, he might hear you!”

He Miao took her hand off and could not help but tease, “Alright, alright, alright. I won’t say anything then. I’ll let your lover think that you two met by chance.”

Xu Meng peeked at the direction of Li Ming again, then lowered her voice and moved closer to He Miao. “But I think he’s been nicer to me recently, really!”

He Miao nodded lightly. “Then you’ll keep up the good work? May our big Miss Xu be successful!”

“You’re welcome, you’re welcome!” Xu Meng took out a box of washed strawberries from her bag and placed it on her table. “I picked them myself from the garden. They’re very fresh. Try them.”

“It’s so sweet!” He Miao picked a large and red strawberry. After taking a small bite, the juice flowed out immediately, and the fragrance and sweetness spread in her mouth.

“It’s delicious, right?” Xu Meng especially liked the way He Miao ate. She always felt satisfied just by looking at her. Seeing that she liked strawberries, she pushed the box in front of her and said, “If it’s delicious, you can finish it. I’ve already eaten two baskets of strawberries at home.”

“How can I do that?” He Miao personally took a red strawberry and fed it to her. “If there’s something good to eat, we have to eat it together. Only then can we be twice as happy!”

The two looked at each other and smiled. As they ate, a very discordant cough suddenly came from the classroom door.

Xu Meng quickly took the box down from the table and stared at her uncle, who was at the door with cold eyes. “Oh no, it’s class time now. If he catches me eating secretly, I’ll be in trouble!”

He Miao snickered and covered the box for her. She let her keep the things first, then secretly wrote a note and handed it to her.

Xu Meng sneakily opened the note and saw a line of beautiful small words on it, ‘Why are you even more afraid of your uncle than before?’

Xu Meng used to be afraid of him, but not to this extent. It was not an exaggeration to say that she was like a mouse seeing a cat when she saw Xu Zheng.

Xu Meng immediately pulled a long face and wrote a reply, ‘My uncle knows that you want me to be a manager, so he ordered me to study hard this semester and get into the top three in the final exam. I can’t hold you back, or he will ban me from all entertainment, including mobile phones…’

He Miao did not expect this to be the reason. She held the note in her hand and looked up at Xu Zheng, who was giving a serious lecture on the podium. She lowered her head and wrote thoughtfully, ‘Will this restrict you from pursuing the things you like? Are you really going to give up on photography just to learn how to make perfumes?’

Xu Meng was stunned for a moment when she saw it. She lowered her head and replied seriously, ‘To me, what I like the most is to make a career with you, and the rest can be my hobby!’

He Miao’s heart warmed when she saw it. She suddenly thought of something and lowered her head to write, ‘Oh right, last time you said you wanted to shoot the winter scene, but something happened to me and you were delayed. Are there any other competitions? I can compensate you.’

Xu Meng immediately smiled and was about to reply when she was called by Xu Zheng, who had been staring at her from the podium.

Xu Zheng stared at her expressionlessly and asked in a cold voice, “”Xu Meng, what was so funny about what I just said? Tell me about it!”

Xu Meng lowered her head in embarrassment. When he was not paying attention, she secretly made a face at He Miao.

He Miao was both worried and amused by this good friend of hers. It was only after Xu Zheng scolded her a few times and asked her to sit down that she heaved a sigh of relief for her. She would not dare to secretly pass her notes in this class again.

After class, Xu Meng could not wait to answer her question. “There’s a theme shoot this spring as well. Let’s capture the spring scenery, okay?”
