Chapter 103: One Lifetime, One Pair
"Look at her bracelet!" Little White Dove's finger began pointing at Mi Lu's bracelet on the screen.
When Mi Lu froze on screen, her wrist lifted slightly, revealing a very pretty rose-gold bracelet.
Jiang Muye's attention instantly focused entirely on the bracelet.
"Isn't that the letters 'my' on it?" Little White Dove chuckled.
"Wow, is that the abbreviation of Muzi's name? Muzi, Campus Belle Mi loves you so much," Old He began winking at Jiang Muye.
Kai nodded along, grinning. "Who says otherwise? You're drowning in romantic fortune. The Cold Campus Belle likes you, Campus Belle Xia can't let you go, Campus Belle Jiang loves clinging to you, and Campus Belle Mi is chasing you relentlessly. If it were me, I'd be torn just thinking about it, no idea who to pick."
Jiang Muye pursed his lips and muttered, "What are you talking about? Don't go doing wild reading comprehension. Maybe Mi Lu just wore a bracelet from this fashion show. It's not my initials, it's just 'my,' don't you know English!"
"With anyone else I'd think we're overthinking it, but Campus Belle Mi is different. Hasn't Campus Belle Mi always been the number one when it comes to loving and hating boldly? She loves openly and honestly, never holding back. This is the first time I've seen her care about a guy this much," Old He said with a sigh.
Little White Dove nodded. "Right, Campus Belle Mi usually dresses a bit sexy and hot, but she's not easy. You can't force someone with a good figure to cover it up, especially not a model."
The speaker meant nothing by it, but the listener took it to heart.
Jiang Muye's heart was slowly being swayed.
Mi Lu's feelings for him really were there for all to see.
He himself could feel Mi Lu's rather passionate affection for him, but it also brought Jiang Muye trouble.
"Mi Lu is great, she's just not quite right for me." Jiang Muye was moved, but he also knew clearly what he wanted.
He couldn't just because he was moved go and be with Mi Lu.
Jiang Muye was emotional, but also rational. He felt that wouldn't be quite right for Mi Lu.
"I thought the Cold Campus Belle was pretty great before, but now Campus Belle Mi seems pretty great too. Man, can't he just take them all at once? Thinking about it is kind of satisfying," Little White Dove said with a sigh.
"I think you're dreaming. You think two Campus Belles would serve one husband?" Old He began roasting Little White Dove.
Little White Dove snorted. "Maybe not for anyone else, but the two of them are good sisters, no dividing between them. And the Cold Campus Belle is understanding, Campus Belle Mi doesn't fuss over trifles. Maybe true love conquers all, what's not to love about an Emperor E and Nüying arrangement."
"You want a harem, you go have one. I definitely don't have the fortune to enjoy it," Jiang Muye said, glancing at Little White Dove.
For him, one woman was enough.
Another one?
Too many.
Jiang Muye rather believed in one lifetime, one pair. People might call him too naive, but once Jiang Muye set his heart on someone, he wanted to walk through life with that person, never to be separated.
"Others want this kind of blessing and can't get it, and you don't even want it. Really, comparing people is maddening," Little White Dove said, shaking his head.
Old He grinned and tilted his head toward Jiang Muye, teasing, "Don't say that. You say you don't want it now, but later it'll be 'so good,' and then you'll be eating your words."
"Then just wait and see. I will absolutely not eat my words. Anyway, I only need one." At present, Jiang Muye only had feelings for Leng Ruoli, and he would work hard to turn those feelings into liking.
If after trying he confirmed he still couldn't like Leng Ruoli, he wouldn't lead the girl on. He'd make things clear early.
Jiang Muye's words instantly earned the others' respect.
Maybe if someone else said it, it'd be showing off, but Jiang Muye definitely wasn't.
After all, joking aside, Jiang Muye really was serious about love, a total Romeo. Otherwise, how could he still treat Xia Xiran as his first love after being tormented by her so many times?
The few of them naturally hoped Jiang Muye would open his heart soon and find happiness. After all, they still dreamed of several brothers getting married on the same day after graduation.
After joking around a while, they continued watching the livestream.
Mi Lu walked the runway three times in total, changing into three outfits, each with its own flair. Even her final appearance overturned her usual pure image—she actually came out in a pure white long dress.
"Is that Campus Belle Mi?" Little White Dove couldn't believe it.
Even Jiang Muye was stunned.
This light makeup was so fresh and elegant. Mi Lu descended like a sprite. Looking closely, she actually resembled Leng Ruoli somewhat, but was more alluring than Leng Ruoli, pure yet carrying the sweetness of a peach.
At first glance, Jiang Muye thought she was another model.
Mi Lu simply dazzled the whole venue. The close-ups below were all of people staring blankly at her. She stood out like a crane among chickens.
After successfully exiting, dozens of models immediately lined up together to take their bows.
Old He and the others still hadn't snapped out of the runway show, still marveling. "That really was a superb walk! Absolutely amazing, I love it so much."
"Who says otherwise? Really great. It's my first time seeing Campus Belle Mi walk a runway, but she's truly both salty and sweet. Marrying her wouldn't be like marrying two wives at once!" Little White Dove was thrilled.
He directly nudged Jiang Muye's ribs lightly, grinning. "Right, Muzi?"
Jiang Muye glared at Little White Dove. "I'm not Li Yunfang, why do you keep asking me."
"Then who told her to be so devoted to you." Little White Dove teased. "She almost flew back for you."
"I know what's what," Jiang Muye said coolly.
"Or you could just take both the Cold Campus Belle and Campus Belle Mi! I think it'd be a shame to give up either~" Little White Dove egged him on.
Old He excitedly shouted, "Yes yes yes, take them all, then applaud for love, just thinking about it is a thrill!"
"Bullshit! Want me to tell your two girlfriends you have such absurd ideas?" Jiang Muye narrowed his eyes.
"Don't, that'd be a matter of life and death, how would I dare~" Little White Dove panicked.
His Suya was a tigress, nowhere near as passionate as Campus Belle Mi, nor as gentle to Muzi as the Cold Campus Belle.
No, no. He might have had pipe dreams of a harem before, but he knew himself.
He wasn't as rich as Muzi, nor as handsome as Muzi. What harem?
Old He laughed awkwardly too. "Just joking."
"Alright, it's all over, hurry up and go brush your teeth and wash your faces." Jiang Muye started shooing people out.
"Good, good, good, dismissed. I still need to call my girl." Little White Dove, after grinning cheekily, slipped off to the bathroom.
Jiang Muye was just about to get into bed when a WeChat video call from Mi Lu came through.
