The Male Lead Suddenly Became My Lapdog after I Annulled Our Engagement Chapter 139 Friendship

139 Friendship
From Xu Heng’s point of view, He Miao used to be smitten with Jing Yan. Now that the little girl had finally woken up from her love, this silly boy realized that he had given his heart to her and started to pursue her again.
He did not have a good impression of this kind of young man who did not know how to cherish things, and he did not want him to pester his favorite student.
He Miao should be focused on making perfumes and should not be tied down by such an insignificant matter as love. Moreover, Jing Yan’s identity, which was constantly being watched, might be a huge obstacle to He Miao’s career.
Backstage, He Miao sat alone in a corner, waiting for the staff to distribute the contestant numbers.
The little girl in a light yellow top stared at her with a pair of delicate eyes and strode over arrogantly. She pointed at the bracelet on her hand and screamed in disbelief, “Where did that thing on your hand come from?”
Her voice was not soft, and the bored contestants backstage subconsciously looked over.
He Miao looked up at her, confused. “A friend gave it to me. What’s wrong?”
The little girl continued to ask, “Which friend? Is he called Jing Yan?”
He Miao sized her up seriously this time and nodded. “Yes, do you know each other?”
“Of course I know him! That’s my Brother Jing Yan!” The little girl stomped her feet in anger and shouted, “Why did he give you this bracelet? Why this bracelet of all people!”
He Miao raised her wrist and shook it in confusion. “Is there anything special about this bracelet?”
She only knew that Jing Yan had secretly auctioned it behind her back. Could it be that there was something hidden in the bracelet?
“This is the bracelet I said I wanted!” The little girl put her hands on her hips angrily, gritting her teeth and trying to snatch what should have belonged to her, but He Miao slapped her hard on the back of her hand.
She quickly retracted her hand and looked at the handprint on the back of her hand. Tears welled up in her eyes. “You dare to hit me! You took my brother Jing Yan away, and you even dared to hit me!”
“What’s the fuss?” A man in a black suit walked in from the backstage entrance with a deep and powerful voice. “Xinxin, what happened?”
“Uncle! She’s bullying me!” Meng Xin pointed at He Miao, aggrieved. Her eyes were filled with tears as she looked at the man who had always stood up for her.
Meng Lang’s sharp eyes swept over and looked at the perfume bottle in her hand. He could not help but laugh. “You are He Miao, the one that Xu Heng recommended to participate in the competition ”
“Yes.” He Miao nodded her head neither obsequiously nor arrogantly. She turned her gaze to the delicate Meng Xin and smiled faintly. “About what your niece said about me bullying her, it was all because she pounced on me and wanted to snatch my bracelet.”
Meng Lang’s cold gaze shifted to her wrist, and his expression changed drastically. “How dare you! Xinxin had seen all kinds of good things since she was a child. Why would she take the initiative to steal such a broken bracelet? Don’t distort the truth here!”
Before He Miao could speak, Meng Xin tugged at her uncle’s sleeve and whispered guiltily, “Uncle, I was the one who Jing Yan gave that to, No. It’s not considered snatching. It was originally mine!”
“That’s mine.” He Miao explained expressionlessly.
No matter how softly she spoke, He Miao was so close to them that he could not have missed her words.
The man’s expression changed again and again. He glanced at the faces around him who were trying to hold back their laughter and suddenly felt that he was embarrassed by this little girl who did not know the immensity of heaven and earth. His tone became more and more severe. “Who was it?”
“Jing Yan gave it to me.” He Miao said honestly.
The competition was about to start, and she did not want to talk about such a boring thing with someone who did not know her.
Seeing her uncle looking at her sternly, Meng Xin immediately cried out in grievance, “Uncle, I said I wanted it first. Brother Jing Yan clearly knew about it, but he secretly gave it to her. It should have been mine!”
“Nonsense!” Meng Lang’s face immediately darkened. He raised his hand and pointed in the direction of the door. “You better go back to the audience and sit down, don’t run around!”
Meng Xin did not dare to disobey her uncle. She could only glare at He Miao and rushed out of the backstage.
At that moment, the room suddenly quieted down without her crying. Meng Lang carefully sized up the quiet little girl in front of him and said coldly, “Why did Jing Yan give you this bracelet? What’s your relationship?”
The Meng family and the Jing family were both aristocratic families. As an elder, how could he not know what his niece was thinking? In the past, he only knew that there was a girl who was engaged to Jing Yan but later broke off the engagement, but he had never seen He Miao.
Now that he had seen her in person, he naturally had to ask her on behalf of his niece.
He Miao could tell that they were familiar with Jing Yan, but she did not overreach herself and shamelessly claim to be Jing Yan’s younger sister to brush it off. She looked straight into his sharp eyes and said indifferently, “We’re just ordinary friends.”
“Ordinary friends?” Meng Lang was immediately alarmed.
