The little girl who prayed to Buddha

Chapter 268 The Whereabouts of the Pearl in the Ocean

As long as it was something she wanted to do, he would agree unconditionally.

Although this shop is open 24 hours a day, the cakes are really delicious.

Xiaoxiao ordered two items skillfully and found a seat in the corner.

Although it is a bit late, there are still a few tables of guests.

He Jinglian looked at Xiaoxiao who was just busy eating, wanting to say something but not knowing how to start.

She doesn't know how I feel about her, and if I say it too obviously now, it will definitely scare her.

But I also have to let her know that I will not leave her.

Seeing that she was about to finish her cake, He Jinglian clenched her fist to her lips and pretended to cough, "Xiaoxiao, I want to tell you something."

"Well, you say." Xiaoxiao said vaguely with her mouth full of cake.

He Jinglian thought for a moment, "My family is celebrating the New Year with an uncle's family tomorrow. They have a daughter. When we were little, they used to joke about getting us engaged. But I don't like her at all. If I encounter something I can't solve tomorrow, you have to save me!"

After thinking for a long time, He Jinglian decided to tell the truth.

Although I don't know if Xiaoxiao will mind that he was engaged before, but if she finds out that he lied, the matter will definitely be more serious.
Sure enough, Xiaoxiao looked up in surprise.

"If you don't like it, then you don't like it. Just say it clearly. Why use the word 'save'?"

He Jinglian was embarrassed and didn't know how to say it to appear less narcissistic.

Xiaoxiao continued to speak, "Are you afraid that she will pester you?"

He Jinglian's face flushed, but he refused without hesitation, "Impossible! How could it be!"

Xiaoxiao looked at him with a half-smile and said meaningfully, "Don't worry, maybe she doesn't have that kind of feelings towards you."

Although she didn't say whether she would save him in the end, He Jinglian felt a little relieved.

After telling this story, He Jinglian wanted to send her home, but was rejected by Xiaoxiao.

"I'll go back alone, don't worry, no one can beat me!" He raised his little fist and shook it.

He Jinglian laughed.

"Although you are capable, I am still worried!" Xiaoxiao rolled her eyes. She was determined not to let him send her home.

Just then a taxi passed by. Xiaoxiao waved to the driver to stop, opened the door and stuffed him in.

"Master, go to Jinhu Villa!"

"Hey Xiaoxiao, don't..."

While talking, He Jinglian suddenly stopped, and took advantage of this opportunity to slam the car door shut with a bang.

I stood outside the car, smiled and waved goodbye to him, and only breathed a deep sigh of relief after watching the taxi drive away.

He patted his chest and let out a breath, "That was a close call!"

He Jinglian looked at the person who was getting farther and farther away from him, and turned back silently.

What did he just see?
Just as Xiaoxiao was pushing herself into the car, a pendant suddenly fell out from her neck.

It emits a faint blue light under the illumination of the car lights, which is so familiar.

He Jinglian shook his head and denied it.

It's impossible. The pearl in the ocean was clearly bought by Grandpa Qin and given to Qin Ting. How could it appear on Xiaoxiao?

I must have seen it wrong.

He Jinglian told himself this, but he kept thinking about this problem all night and couldn't fall asleep.

So much so that I felt particularly tired the next day.

Mr. He got angry the moment he saw his expression.

"Look at you, you're still half asleep. How are you going to face people then? You really want Qin Ting to have a bad impression of you, don't you?"

"Okay, Dad, don't blame Jinglian. Maybe he was too nervous to sleep because he was going to see Tingting!" Wei Xueyan hurried to comfort the old man, but this made He Jinglian unhappy.

"Oh, why would I be nervous about meeting her? Who is she?"
