107 An Apology
The system replied, [I’m sorry. You don’t have enough favorability points left. The system can’t be activated.]
He Wei opened her eyes in shock and carefully looked at the fan data on the internet. She realized that because she had not responded for a long time, there were signs of her fans leaving the internet.
The last time she used the koi system, she had already used up a good portion of her favorability points. This time, not only did she not accumulate enough favorability points to use, but the points had also been deducted. This caught He Wei by surprise.
Without the koi system, she could only rely on her manager’s PR.
However, on the surface, He Wei was the one who started this incident, but behind the scenes, her manager was the one who did it. It was easier said than done to clear her name.
He Wei was anxiously sitting on the sofa thinking of a solution when Zhong Fei called. “Weiwei, even your father knows about the news on the internet. What exactly is going on?”
“Mom, don’t worry about this. I’ll explain it to dad.” He Wei hung up the phone impatiently.
When she transmigrated here, she was already an adult. Naturally, she did not have any feelings for her mother in name. Now that the situation was critical, she was not in the mood to deal with her like before.
He Wei knew He Feng’s character very well. She could tell from the last time he wanted to take her to the cocktail party that he only cared about his own interests.
She was afraid that the reason he took the initiative to ask her about this situation this time was just to show his concern about whether she would implicate him.
While He Wei’s heart was in a mess, He Miao’s side was also in a terrible fix.
The annoying dog barks in the living room were so loud that even the neighbors downstairs came up to knock on the door.
He Miao could only apologize over and over again, covering Onion’s mouth to stop him from barking.
Li Ming sat on the sofa and smiled helplessly. “Your dog doesn’t seem to welcome me. Why don’t you eat at my grandmother’s house? She wants to apologize to you.”
He Miao shook her head nonchalantly. “You don’t have to apologize. It’s only right for you to stay out of trouble. I understand.”
Li Ming suddenly stood up and was about to take a step forward when Onion, who had finally calmed down in He Miao’s arms, flashed his teeth again and growled at him fiercely.
He could only stand there and say guiltily, “Actually, when grandma heard the commotion, she knew that something might have happened to you. She called me first, but I didn’t have my phone with me at the time. Grandma said that she was worried when I didn’t pick up the call, so she helped to call the police. Later, she heard that someone came up to help, so she didn’t come out.”
He Miao nodded understandingly. “Even if grandma wanted to stand up for us, I was worried that she would get hurt. Luckily, Jing Yan arrived in time. If it weren’t for him, I’m afraid the consequences would be unimaginable.”
Li Ming paused for a moment. His eyes were filled with guilt and his fists were clenched tightly.
Seeing him like this, Jing Yan suddenly stopped barking and obediently nestled in He Miao’s arms.
The person who appeared in time yesterday was him, Jing Yan. No matter how much Li Ming apologized, it could not change the fact that he had already occupied an important position in He Miao’s heart.
At the thought of his plans for the day, Jing Yan stuck out his tongue and licked He Miao’s palm.
Li Ming lowered his eyes, knowing that he had lost to Jing Yan. He smiled helplessly. “That’s true, it’s all thanks to him.”
He wanted to invite He Miao to his grandmother’s house for dinner when suddenly, there was the sound of footsteps in the corridor, followed by a loud noise from upstairs to downstairs.
Confused, He Miao opened the door and saw a group of men in overalls coming down the stairs with all kinds of furniture in their hands.
“You’re moving in the middle of the night?” she asked in disbelief.
“Yes, young lady,” the mover replied enthusiastically. “The one living above you.”
‘Isn’t that Aunty Li’s house?’
He Miao suddenly recalled that Jing Yan had said this morning that he would deal with it. So, he had planned to drive Auntie Li and the others away to indirectly ensure her safety from now on?
Li Ming stood behind her and looked at her lost in thought. He smiled bitterly, “Then I’ll go back first. See you at class tomorrow. We’ll discuss the Mid-Autumn Festival Gala there.”
“Alright,” she said. He Miao nodded and moved aside with Onion in her arms.
Li Ming walked to the door and turned around as if he sensed something. He saw Onion’s two paws wrapped around He Miao’s neck. The dog’s head turned slightly and looked at him without blinking.
There was a strange feeling in Li Ming’s heart. He could actually see the pride in the dog’s eyes. The dog’s expression and actions were too similar to a human’s.
