Chapter 105 - 105 Help
105 Help
He Miao walked out of the school building and was about to call Jing Yan when she saw the man with a cold face surrounded by the crowd looking at the girl who had mustered up the courage to hand him a love letter.
He was surrounded by a group of girls, and the smell of various perfumes was mixed together and rushed into his nose.
Jing Yan raised his eyes in frustration and saw He Miao, who stood alone in the crowd, looking in their direction. His cold expression softened.
Avoiding the girls around him, Jing Yan walked toward her.
The girl blushed as she waited for Jing Yan’s response. The chaotic surroundings suddenly became quiet. She looked up in surprise and saw Jing Yan smiling with his head lowered, talking to He Miao in a gentle voice.
Any girl would be able to tell what Jing Yan’s feelings for He Miao were from his expression, but He Miao did not think of it that way. She looked at the gazes that kept sizing her up and sighed. “You should come to my house. I have something to discuss with you.”
Jing Yan’s eyes widened in surprise. This was the first time she had invited him to her house.
He nodded with a smile and led her to his car.
Before he came to school, he went back to the Jing family house to make some arrangements. He did not have to come to campus today, but he wanted to see He Miao, so he came to pick her up on a whim. However he was stopped at the door and was given a love letter.
He was getting impatient, but he saw He Miao at the back of the crowd. He had also received such a big surprise, and he suddenly felt that this trip was worth it.
He Miao led Jing Yan into the house, poured him a glass of water, and then said directly, “I’ve never paid attention to what’s happening on the internet, so I’m not too sure. I really want to know why most people on the internet are targeting me, even though you’re also the male lead of the short series.”
Jing Yan drank a mouthful of water with a smile and asked in a good mood, “Are you trying to say that I’m not that bad looking, but the media rarely talks about me or pays attention to me?”
He Miao furrowed her brows and looked at Jing Yan with scrutiny.
In all fairness, as the male lead of the story, this person’s looks were definitely passable, but when these words came out of his own mouth, it made He Miao feel incredulous.
It was like a serious person suddenly joking with you. You would not find it funny, you would only find it strange.
However, she still maintained a fair attitude and nodded.
Jing Yan’s lips curled into a smile. “It seems that you’ve finally decided to ask me for help.”
“It is the Jing family who is controlling the public opinion.” He Miao did not want to beat around the bush with him, so she directly stated her speculation.
In this short film, the male and female leads were both characters of the same story, but later on, only He Miao received the media’s attention. As for Jing Yan, only those who did not know the truth paid attention to him, but there were only a few of them, and they did not amount to much.
The only person who could do this could only have used the capital behind him to control public opinion and removed Jing Yan from the eye of the storm.
Jing Yan nodded approvingly. “So, you’re in trouble and you need my help?”
Jing Yan had been busy the whole day and had only just found out about last night’s incident. He had originally planned to go directly to the stage to manipulate the public opinion, but he really wanted He Miao to know his feelings, so he held back and waited for He Miao to act.
However, he did not expect He Miao to come knocking on his door first. This was really a pleasant surprise.
“Yes,” He Miao said in a low voice. “This matter doesn’t just concern me. It concerns my friend and the university’s honor. I hope you can help.”
Jing Yan held back his laughter and pretended to be cold. “Why should I help you? What good will it do me?”
He Miao looked up at him seriously. “First of all, you have received a letter of authorization from the principal to fund the competition. As investors, the school and the Jing family should consider the benefits of the short series. The public opinion this time has affected the investors’ interests to a large extent.”
“From this point of view, we are indeed tied to the same boat, but I don’t really care about this little benefit.” Jing Yan shook the glass in his hand with a smile. It was just an ordinary glass of water, he treated it like a like a goblet of red wine.
He Miao really wanted to throw this pretentious man out, but her efforts for Xu Meng’s sake could not go to waste. She could only grit her teeth and say, “Secondly, I’m your sister. You helped me this time, so I’ll pay you back in the future.”
