The Male Lead Suddenly Became My Lapdog after I Annulled Our Engagement Chapter 156 The Negotiation

156 The Negotiation
The next day, He Miao went out and ran into Jing Yan, who was walking down the stairs.
The two of them had already developed a tacit understanding of each other when they went to university together, but Jing Yan, who used to have a lot of fun, was a little serious today.
After getting into the car, Jing Yan sighed and turned to He Miao. “I’ll be very busy for the next few days, so I’m afraid I won’t be able to come and pick you up. I’ll drop you off at the school gate and head to the company.”
“It’s okay, I can do it myself.” This place was not far from the school, so she could take the public bus to the school. Jing Yan did not have to take her to school every day.
Hearing her words, Jing Yan was not happy at all. He looked at her gloomily and asked in a hoarse voice, “Will you miss me?”
He Miao’s face turned red from his sudden question. She glanced out of the car in a hurry and forced herself to be calm. “Anyone who suddenly breaks a habit will miss it.”
She turned to Jing Yan and said, “I think I’ll miss you.”
Perhaps it was because she could not bear to disappoint him in the next few days, or perhaps it was because of something else, but she did not continue to hide her emotions and said what he wanted to hear the most.
For some reason, when she said this, she felt relieved for no reason.
Only then did Jing Yan’s face brighten up. He drove to the school gate and grabbed He Miao’s arm when she got out of the car. His eyes were sparkling. “When you miss me, you have to send me a message. Anything will do, even if it’s just a simple punctuation mark, okay?”
He Miao was slightly stunned, a wave of intense emotions swirling in her chest. Finally, she smiled and said, “Alright,” she said.
When they reached the class, Xu Meng happily pulled her to sit down and smiled. “Goddess, the people who are begging for your perfume are already causing a ruckus! How much do you plan to sell it for?”
He Miao mysteriously whispered into her ear, “Compared to the price, I have a better idea.”
“Quick, tell me, what good ideas do you have?” Xu Meng asked excitedly.
However, she refused to answer her easily. “You’ll know when you accompany me to see someone after class.”
Ever since he accepted the fact that she had to travel through books, He Miao had long treated this place as the real world. Other than burying herself in her research on spices, she would also pay attention to what was going on in campus.
She knew that other than Jing Yan, there was another woman who had absolute power on this campus, and this woman would open the perfume market for her.
Outside the Student Union office, Xu Meng held her arm nervously and said hesitantly, “Are we really going in? Maybe you don’t know because you don’t join any clubs, but our student council president is famous for being strict. I’m a little scared.”
“Then why don’t you wait for me outside?” He Miao could tell that she was really scared and could not bear to make things difficult for her.
“No, how can I back down at the last minute!” Xu Meng took a deep breath, puffed out her chest, and said rather righteously, “We’re the best of friends, of course we’ll go through thick and thin together!”
He Miao smiled from the bottom of her heart and knocked on the office door.
A cold and stern “come in” was heard from the room.
He Miao turned the doorknob and entered. She immediately saw the woman sitting behind the desk. She had an exquisite face but had an aura of boldness.
He Miao smiled at her. “President Xia, nice to meet you. I’m He Miao from the Fragrance and Perfumes Department.”
“I know you, Miss Champion. Please take a seat.” Xia Yan put the documents aside and pointed at the seat opposite her. She said politely, “You’ve brought glory to the school. I was just about to congratulate you, but I didn’t expect you to come to me first.”
Xia Yan’s father was the dean of the school. In the school, she had the largest background apart from Jing Yan. Her grandfather’s generation even joined the army and made outstanding military achievements. Her mother was a successful career woman who could easily make any brand famous with the resources she had.
However, this was not the most important reason why He Miao wanted to find her. Her main purpose was to open up her own market.
He Miao readily handed over the gift box she had prepared earlier and smiled. “This is my way of thanking my school for nurturing me.”
Xia Yan was very interested in He Miao’s explanation. She raised her hand to open the box, only to see a small bottle of perfume the size of a thumb. It was the bottle that He Miao used to participate in the competition.
“This gift is very interesting.” Xia Yan closed the lid and looked at He Miao with a smile. “I heard that the popularity of this perfume of yours is even greater than that of ordinary celebrities. Are you really going to give it to me so generously?”
“Of course.” He Miao nodded lightly. “This small gift is just a small token of my sincerity. I also have a bigger gift for you and your mother.”
“What is it?” Xia Yan was getting more and more curious about He Miao, and she could not help but ask.
He Miao smiled slightly and said with determination, “It’s with me, a permanent perfume partnership.”
