The Male Lead Suddenly Became My Lapdog after I Annulled Our Engagement Chapter 223 The Visit

223 The Visit
On the morning of the second day of the new year, after He Miao had breakfast at home, she was sent to Xu Meng’s house by Jing Yan.
The first month of the year was the coldest time of the year, and the snow on the ground would creak softly when one stepped on it.
Xu Meng was standing under the unit, stomping her feet to keep herself warm while waiting for Jing Yan’s car to come.
From afar, she saw an expensive car that no one in the entire community could afford driving over. Xu Meng knew that it was He Miao.
She took a few steps back to make way for Jing Yan’s car to have enough space to park. Then, she happily walked over to pick up He Miao.
He Miao carried the New Year’s goods she bought and opened the car door. She smiled and held Xu Meng’s hand. “Why didn’t you wait for me in the house? It’s so cold outside.”
“When I heard that you were coming, I couldn’t just sit still at home. I dressed up and came down to pick you up.” Xu Meng looked at the things in her hand and said embarrassed, “What else do you need to take? I’m already very happy as long as you can come.”
“How can I be empty-handed during the new year?” After He Miao got out of the car, she blinked her eyes and looked at the disgruntled Jing Yan in the driver’s seat. She could not help but laugh. “You can go back first, come pick me up later.”
“Aren’t you staying at my place?” Xu Meng’s eyes widened as she looked at He Miao expectantly. Suddenly, she realized something and guiltily met Jing Yan’s condemning eyes. “Okay, okay, okay. I got it. Let’s go upstairs. I’ll help you get your things.”
He Miao closed the car door and was about to go upstairs with Xu Meng when she suddenly heard the phone in her pocket vibrate. Unfortunately, her hands were full of things, so she could only wait upstairs to take a look.
When they reached the entrance of the building, He Miao turned around and waved at Jing Yan, telling him to go home quickly. Then she followed Xu Meng to her house.
Xu Zheng knew that his favorite student was coming to visit, so he changed into a new set of clothes early in the morning and came to Xu Meng’s house to visit.
Xu Meng’s house was on the fourth floor. Although this neighborhood was not as gorgeous as the Jing family’s, it was still of the upper class. Each building was equipped with an elevator, which made it easy for the residents to go up and down.
The elevator door opened with a “ding”. Xu Meng’s parents and Xu Zheng were waiting at the door to welcome her.
He Miao obediently greeted them one by one and was welcomed through the door by them.
Xu Zheng was so happy that the corners of his mouth almost reached his ears. When he saw He Miao, he could not stop smiling. “You got full marks this time. You’re much better than Xu Meng, who was at the bottom of the class.”
“No!” He Miao shook her head. “Mengmeng has her own specialty. You can’t just look at her grades.”
Xu Zheng glanced at his niece, who was pouting and looking aggrieved, and could not help but sigh. “I know. I won’t say that again.”
He Miao then laughed and held Xu Meng’s arm. “I heard that the school is going to have a photography competition for the winter scenery soon. Have you thought about what you want to shoot?”
Speaking of this, Xu Meng’s spirit was lifted again, and she said happily, “I’ve thought it through, I still want to film you!”
“Take a picture of me?” He Miao was invited by Xu Meng’s mother to sit on the sofa. She took a cup of hot tea from Xu Meng’s father and asked, “Didn’t you want to shoot the winter scenery? Why are you taking pictures of me?”
“I’ve already thought of the composition! I’ll come to you in two days and tell you my thoughts,” Xu Meng said mysteriously.
“Alright,” she said. He Miao nodded in agreement.
She would naturally support her best friend’s decision.
Mother Xu sat opposite the two children with a smile and asked gently, “It’s Mengmeng’s good fortune to have a good friend like you.”
“Yeah, I’ve heard Mengmeng mention you many times. I’ve even watched your competitions! My brother has a promising student like you,” Father Xu praised generously. “His teaching career is considered complete.”
He Miao smiled shyly and said a few humble words. Xu Zheng, who was sitting next to her, suddenly asked, “Are you guys going to register your company after school starts?”
“Yes,” He Miao nodded and said seriously, “Mengmeng and I have been preparing for this for a long time. Now, we have enough funds to start. We also have a partner. We just have to rent a building after school starts. After renovation, we can start making perfume.”
“Where should we set the location? Have you thought it through?” Xu Zheng asked worriedly.
No matter how capable He Miao was, she was still a student who had not graduated yet. It was easier said than done to start a company. He was afraid that He Miao would be scammed of her money.
“I’m done.” He Miao nodded. After she told him the address, Xu Zheng frowned.
“Is it the building next to the Jing family office building?” he asked, deep in thought.
“Yes,” He Miao blinked in surprise. “You know where it is?”
Xu Zheng stared at her for a while, and after thinking for a while, he could not help but ask, “What is your relationship with Jing Yan?”
He Miao was slightly taken aback. She was too embarrassed to admit that she had a boyfriend in front of all the elders, but seeing Xu Zheng’s serious expression, she could not fool him so easily. She could only say tactfully, “I’ll probably get engaged to Jing Yan again next year.”
