291 Get Used To Your Existence
Ye Ning looked up and saw the man handing her a glass of water with a smile.
He Chen saw that she refused to take it and could not help but smile. “I didn’t drug you. If you still refuse to drink it, then I can only take it that you want me to feed you.”
Ye Ning’s face turned red almost instantly, and her heart beat faster. She took the glass and drank it. Then she slammed the glass to the side and glared at him. “Why are you still not leaving?”
“You do your thing, I’ll do mine.” Not only did He Chen not plan on leaving, but he even found a comfortable spot to sit down. He took out some homework from his backpack and started to do it. He was completely at ease and treated the place like a private study room.
Ye Ning rolled her eyes and completely ignored him. She calmed down and continued the next experiment. When she looked up again, a glass of water was held firmly by a big hand and handed to her as usual.
Ye Ning gradually got used to this kind of interaction. Even though He Chen did not get her contact information after two weeks, he still came to the laboratory to accompany her without stopping.
One afternoon, when Ye Ning walked into the laboratory again, she suddenly did not see He Chen. She started to panic a little. Even when she was doing the experiment she was best at, she could not help but be distracted, which led to the final failure of the experiment and wasted a lot of expensive raw materials for nothing.
Ye Ning knew that she was in a bad state. She dejectedly threw away the wasted ingredients and was about to take off her white coat to go home. When she turned around, she saw He Chen leaning against the door with his usual faint smile on his face.
Ye Ning knew that at that moment, her heart was suddenly beating like a happy rabbit. She could not hide the joy in her eyes. She looked at the man at the door and whispered, “I thought you wouldn’t come again.”
“So you were waiting for me?” He Chen walked into the laboratory with a smile and stuffed a ticket to the perfume exhibition into her hands. “I went to find this for you, so I came late. Ah Ning, don’t blame me, okay?”
What Ah Ning?!
This person was really frivolous!
As she cursed in her heart, Ye Ning’s eyes could not help but glance at the ticket in her hand. This was the ticket that she had missed out on because she was too busy. She had always regretted not being able to get it. She did not expect He Chen to know about it and even specially found one for her!
He Chen quietly looked at the joy in her eyes and felt more confident. He continued, “Do you want to ask me how I know you want this?”
Ye Ning could not help but look up at him. Encouraged by his affectionate eyes, she nodded blankly, eager to know what he was going to say next.
He Chen took a step forward and suddenly trapped Ye Ning between his arms again. The difference was that this time, Ye Ning saw him do it with her own eyes and did not show any obvious rejection.
His heart was also filled with joy, and his eyes brightened as he looked at Ye Ning. “Because I like you, and I can’t help but pay attention to everything about you. You like perfumes so much, how could you miss such a rare exhibition? But I’ve never heard you mention it before, and I’ve noticed that you’ve been frowning a lot while doing experiments recently. That’s the only reason.”
It turned out that he had been watching her the whole time. She had always thought that he was just quietly doing his homework in the corner and would only look up at her when he had time, but she did not expect him to be so attentive.
“Ah Ning.” He Chen called her name softly and lowered his gaze to look at the quiet and obedient girl in his arms. The sound of his heart beating rapidly against the drum reverberated in the quiet laboratory.
Ye Ning also heard it, but she could not tell if the deafening heartbeat was hers or his. She could only be hugged by the other person, her beautiful eyes filled with confusion. “What?”
The atmosphere in the laboratory was just right. Just as she thought He Chen would say something even more mushy and was at a loss for what to do, she heard He Chen chuckle softly. He looked at her with a gentle gaze and said, “Can you take me with you? I just bought two tickets.”
Ye Ning’s heart, which had been hanging high up in the air, suddenly settled down. She could not help but laugh and nod, “Alright. Thank you, He Chen.”
“So you know my name.” He Chen’s eyes were full of smiles.
They had known each other for a while, but she had never mentioned his name. He did not expect Ye Ning to know him.
At the same time that she was secretly happy, she felt a warm feeling in her heart.
He Miao quietly listened to their sweet past. Suddenly, she thought of Jing Yan, who had also been by her side in the laboratory. A warm smile appeared on her face. “What happened after that? How did you two end up together? And she… And how did my mother marry He Feng?”
When he heard that his daughter did not call He Feng ‘daddy’ but called him by his name, He Chen felt much better. The smile on his face deepened.
