302 A Unique Secret

“It’s okay. We’ll think about it slowly in the future. We’ll know eventually.” He Miao smiled and patted his head again.

She suddenly realized that the texture of Jing Yan’s hair was no worse than that of Onion’s!

Jing Yan also obediently let her pat him. When she was done, he got up and said that he wanted to leave.

He Miao looked at the time and worriedly asked her to stay, “Dad said that if it’s too late, you can stay here. The guest room has already been tidied up, so don’t go back tonight. It’s not safe to drive at night.”

“You want me to stay?” Jing Yan suddenly leaned close to her ear and blew on her cheek suggestively. The breeze made her whole face pink and tender, making her look like a delicious peach. He suddenly wanted to take a bite.

He opened his mouth slightly and was about to move closer when the butler suddenly coughed by the living room door, interrupting the romantic atmosphere between the two. “Miss, Young Master Jing, it’s getting late. The master asked me to see if you’ve finished talking. If you’re done, you should rest early.”

Jing Yan coughed awkwardly and stepped aside. He put on a serious face and nodded. “I’m done. Thank you for thinking about us so late at night, Uncle butler and Uncle He. I’ll send Miaomiao back to her room to rest first, then go to the guest room to sleep.”

“Thank you for your trouble, Young Master Jing.” The butler thanked him politely before turning to leave. He went upstairs to answer He Chen.

Jing Yan took her hand and smiled. “Let’s go. I’ll send you back to your room to sleep. I’m afraid that Uncle He will come to drive me away in person if we stay up any later.”

He Miao laughed and nodded. The two of them held hands and did not say anything along the way, but only they knew how close their hearts were.

At the door of the room, Jing Yan stood where he was and looked at He Miao, reluctant to leave. His eyes were so clingy that he could not bear to leave.

The thing He Miao could not refuse the most was his pitiful look. It was exactly the same as when Onion acted pitifully and asked for snacks. She could only sigh helplessly, tiptoe, and gently plant a kiss on his lips. The moment he raised his arms to hug her, she quickly pushed him away, closed the door mischievously, and smiled. “Good night, see you tomorrow!”

Jing Yan helplessly looked at the door in front of him, but his heart was full of sweetness.

He did not even dare to tell his grandfather that he would turn into Onion because he was afraid that his grandfather would worry about him or suspect that he had mental illness. Now, there was finally someone who could share his secret with him. He could tell her everything without any hesitation.

To him, He Miao had long become an inseparable part of him. They knew each other’s secrets that were the most unspeakable to outsiders. This feeling of only the two of them keeping this secret made him feel an inexplicable sense of joy, as if He Miao was all of himself.

The thought of him being the only person in the world that He Miao cared about made him feel more blissful than ever.

The next day, Jing Yan drove He Miao to class. Xu Ling was waiting at the school gate early in the morning. When she saw He Miao get out of the car, she first greeted her with a smile, then showed her the renovation progress and plan that she had tidied up overnight.

Because the circuits needed to be fixed, the company’s opening had been delayed for a long time. If the process was not sped up, the boss would probably lose money.

As He Miao’s only secretary, Xu Ling took on the responsibility of sharing her boss’s burden. She worked out the renovation plan overnight. According to her plan, it would be done in less than a month.

He Miao looked at the things she handed her seriously and nodded in satisfaction. “You’ve done a good job. We’ll do as you say. I believe you’ll take this job seriously. As long as you work hard, I can pay you the same salary as Chen Zhao.”

Xu Ling’s eyes brightened. Chen Zhao’s salary was one of the highest in the industry, not only because of his professional ability, but also because he had the highest score in the secretary industry. More importantly, he was the Chief Secretary of President Jing.

Did He Miao mean that as long as she was willing to work hard, He Miao would let her become the head secretary of the company?

Xu Ling had just graduated and had never thought that her career would develop so smoothly. She quickly bowed to her and said, “Don’t worry, Miss He, I’ll definitely continue to work hard and do my best to make you satisfied!

“Alright,” she said. He Miao liked this girl’s personality very much. After hurriedly explaining some things to her, she became a hands-off manager and handed over everything in the company to her.

Now, He Miao’s main goal was to use the raw materials she bought last time to make the first perfume according to the formula left by her mother.

He Miao really wanted to know what kind of shocking work her mother, who had once been as obsessed with fragrance making as she was, had left behind before her death.

Ever since she had decided to make fragrances with all her heart, He Miao had been going to school almost every day. If she was not in class, she would be making perfumes in the He family’s laboratory. She had not had time to see Jing Yan for a few days.
