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

He Miao quickly put her arm around Xu Meng’s shoulder and smiled. “Our Mengmeng almost broke her legs from all the running just to pick out a present for you. You have to open her present first later!”

“Alright,” he said. Li Ming also realized that he had said something wrong. He invited the two in with a red face and moved the chairs for them before sitting back in his seat.

“Mengmeng,” He Miao worriedly moved closer to Xu Meng and whispered, “Don’t take what I said to heart. It’s impossible between me and Li Ming. Don’t overthink it.”

!!

Xu Meng forced a smile and said, “I know, I’m just a little sad.”

“What are you two whispering about, beautiful ladies?” The girls in the class looked at the two of them teasingly.

When Xu Meng saw the others looking at her, she immediately regained her spirit and laughed loudly. “We’re just saying that we can take advantage of the class rep’s birthday to take a photo with the whole class!”

“Alright, I agree with that.” The girl who spoke just now raised her hand with a smile, and the other students echoed.

Li Ming saw that everyone was so interested, so he asked the staff to help them take a photo. He stood behind He Miao and looked at the camera with gentle eyes.

After the group photo was taken, Li Ming took a bottle of red wine and poured wine for the students one by one. When it was He Miao’s turn, the mouth of the glass was covered by a pair of white and tender hands.

“I’m sorry, class rep, I won’t drink. I can’t hold my liquor.” Recalling the previous few memory fragments, He Miao did not dare to drink easily anymore.

Last time, she had only drunk a small sip of wine from Jing Yan, and she was already so drunk that she was talking nonsense. So this time, she decided not to touch a single drop of wine.

Li Ming did not force her. He got her a bottle of juice and poured it into her glass. Then, he looked at Xu Meng. “Can Mengmeng drink?”

Xu Meng was shocked by his intimate address, as if she had lost her soul. She could only look at him in a daze and nod mechanically.

He Miao looked at the glass of juice in front of her in a daze. For some reason, she thought of the man who should still be working overtime in the office. When she was around, he would always have her favorite milk in front of him.

Xu Meng did not notice that she was lost in her thoughts. After Li Ming had gone, she shook her arm quietly. “He just called me Mengmeng in such a gentle voice!”

“Congratulations.” He Miao raised her glass and clinked glasses with her. Unfortunately, her glass was filled with fresh fruit juice. Compared to the red wine in the other glass, it looked a little out of place.

Xu Meng was immersed in a brief moment of joy. Throughout the entire banquet, her eyes glanced at the man who was talking and laughing with others from time to time, and her face was bright red.

“Mengmeng, do you want to go talk to him?” I see many of our classmates are going,” He Miao suggested, raising an eyebrow. “You should go and say a few words too.”

“I’m not going.” When it was time for her to show up, Xu Meng was embarrassed and asked in a small voice, “Goddess, do you think he’ll carry me like a princess if I’m drunk? Will he send me home or something?”

“I don’t know if he’ll carry you or not, but I won’t let him be alone with you, who’s drunk and unconscious,” He Miao said seriously.

It was not that she did not believe in Li Ming’s character, but she could not allow herself to watch her good friend being taken away by a man. This was also her responsibility to her good friend.

Xu Meng understood her intentions and looked at her, touched. “I know. Don’t worry. I, Xu Meng, am not someone who gives free things to others. I will respect and love myself at all times.

Xu Meng poured herself another glass of wine and finished it in one gulp. She said with a sad face, “And I don’t seem to get drunk. I’ve never gotten drunk when I drank with my dad before!”

“I didn’t expect you to have this kind of strength!” A male student next to her came over and raised his glass to Xu Meng. “Miss Wine God, please allow me to drink with you!”

“It’s approved!” Xu Meng smiled and clinked glasses with him, then drank the wine again.

Li Ming was talking to someone when he saw the situation from the corner of his eye. He frowned and walked over worriedly. “Mengmeng, don’t drink so much. We’re going to change venue and sing karaoke later.”

“It’s good to go and sing. I want to hear my goddess sing!” Xu Meng immediately agreed with great interest.

He Miao glanced at her guiltily and shook her head shyly. “Then I’m afraid I’ll have to disappoint you. The only reason you haven’t heard me sing until now is because I’ve been tone-deaf since I was young.”

“I’ve always heard people say that when god closes a door, he will open a window for him. I’ve always been curious about which door He Miao has been closed to,” said the boy who had proposed the toast. “Today, we finally know!”
