The Male Lead Suddenly Became My Lapdog after I Annulled Our Engagement

118 Annoyed

It was the weekend, and Jing Yan went downstairs early in the morning to knock on He Miao’s door.

Onion was squatting on the ground and looking at the mooncake pieces in his bowl in disgust. When it saw Jing Yan, it ran to his feet and rubbed his ankle.

He Miao was wearing a purple chiffon dress and a light white shirt. Her long hair hung naturally behind her, and she was holding a wrapped box of mooncakes. She stood in front of Jing Yan with a smile. “I made some last night. I wonder if Grandpa will like it.”

“As long as it’s made by you, Grandpa will like it.” Jing Yan took the things from her hands naturally.

When they arrived at the Jing family house, the old man was sitting on the sofa, reading the newspaper and talking to an uninvited girl.

!!

As soon as he saw He Miao, the old man immediately put down the newspaper and held her hand with a smile, inviting her to sit down beside him. “Miaomiao, you’re finally here to see Grandpa. Grandpa misses you so much.”

“It’s my fault. I’ve been busy at school recently. Otherwise, I would have come to see you during Mid-Autumn.” She took the gift box of mooncakes from Jing Yan and placed it on the table. She glanced at He Wei, who had arrived earlier than her, and said with a smile, “I made this myself. Try it and see if it’s to your taste.”

“Alright, it’s still Miaomiao who misses Grandfather the most.” The old man happily opened the gift box and was full of praise after tasting a piece of mooncake.

He Wei looked awkwardly at the expensive supplements she had just bought on the table.

When Old Master Jing saw these things, he only raised his eyebrows slightly and treated her coolly. Compared to He Miao, he was like heaven and earth.

She lowered her eyes in jealousy and forced an ugly smile. “I’m glad that Miaomiao is thoughtful. Grandpa Jing always likes her best.”

“I’ve said it before. No matter what Miaomiao gives, grandfather will like it.” Jing Yan naturally sat beside He Miao and picked up a piece of mooncake to put in his mouth. The filling melted in his mouth, and the sweetness reached his heart.

The old man nodded in agreement. Seeing that the distance between the two was not as distant as before, he smiled with relief. “Jing Yan hasn’t bullied you recently, has he?”

He Miao lowered her head in embarrassment. “Brother is very good to me.”

He Wei raised her eyebrows. She knew about Jing Yan and He Miao’s current relationship, and the discomfort in her heart dissipated a little with He Miao’s words. “I didn’t expect Jing Yan to be so good at taking care of people. He’s much better than me, the elder sister.”

Jing Yan gave her a meaningful look. Last time, when she and her manager worked together to plot against He Miao, he had not gotten even with her yet. Now, she was one step ahead of him and came to visit grandpa first. He did not know what she was up to.

He Wei was startled by Jing Yan’s sudden gaze and sat up straight subconsciously. She pushed aside the loose hair at her temples, revealing her delicate and alluring collarbones, and looked at him innocently.

He Miao watched the exchange of glances between the two of them as if she was watching a good show.

Could this be the beginning of the love scene between the male and female leads? She did not expect to have the opportunity to witness this scene.

He Miao picked up her teacup and took a sip, then gave Jing Yan a meaningful look.

Jing Yan frowned at her sneaky eyes, then followed her gaze and looked at He Wei’s fake expression in confusion.

Jing Yan’s face darkened. He grabbed He Miao’s wrist and pulled her up. “Grandpa, He Miao isn’t feeling well. I’m taking her to take her medicine.”

“Alright, you guys can go.” The old man seemed to have not seen the interaction between the three of them just now and continued to drink his tea.

When He Wei saw the two of them leave alone, she could not sit still. She pretended to be worried and said, “Grandpa Jing, I’m worried about my sister. I want to see her.”

“No need.” The old man raised his hand to stop her. “With Jing Yan here, nothing will happen.”

Since the old man had already spoken, He Wei naturally did not dare to disobey.

She had come here with the purpose of pleasing the old man. Grandpa Jing liked He Miao so much that if she wanted to marry into the Jing family, she had to get through the old man first.

Moreover, she was familiar with the plot of the book. The old man would suddenly fall ill next month and die as a result. She had already started to make preparations. She was waiting to save his life at the critical moment and make him like her as much as he liked He Miao so that she could set up an engagement with Jing Yan.

Therefore, at this time, she had to maintain her obedient and sensible image. No matter how anxious she was, she could only sit on the sofa and chat with the old man.

Jing Yan pulled He Miao into the home theater and closed the door. He put his arm beside her ear, imprisoning her in a small space in front of him.

He looked down at her, his eyes filled with anger. “What did you mean by giving me that look just now?”

He Miao pushed his chest uneasily and looked at him with his long and narrow eyes without blinking. “What are you doing? I’m just being kind.”

“Good intentions?” Jing Yan sneered and narrowed his eyes dangerously. “Don’t tell me you can’t tell why He Wei came to my house this time?”
