Chapter 114: A Forceful Confession
Jiang Muye was taken aback.
He realized that what Mi Lu had put on him was a rose-gold bracelet, exactly the one Mi Lu had been wearing on her arm during the fashion show.
"Look, we're a pair. A gift for you. Do you like it?" Mi Lu giggled.
Little White Dove immediately went into gossip mode. "Tsk tsk tsk, on Campus Belle Mi's wrist it's 'my,' and on Muzi's wrist it's 'ml'~"
"That's right." Mi Lu raised her arm to show off the bracelet. "my = mine = Muye. It also means I belong to Muye. As for the ml on Muye's wrist, that's even simpler. ml = I love = Mi Lu. It also means I, Mi Lu, love you."
Then Old He let out a whistle.
Little White Dove slapped her thigh in excitement. "I knew it!"
She immediately turned to Suya. "Suya, you should learn a thing or two from Campus Belle Mi here. How do you flirt with me like that!"
Suya snorted. "In your dreams. You think you're Jiang Muye, worth me putting in that kind of effort?"
While everyone was egging them on, Jiang Muye immediately started taking the bracelet off his wrist.
He set the bracelet on the table and said to Mi Lu, "Sister Mi Lu, you should save it for someone else. This isn't for me."
The System: 【Congratulations, Host. You have obtained two hundred Grit Points.】
After seeing Jiang Muye reject her, Mi Lu tried hard to keep her composure. "It's not that expensive. You don't need to worry about the price."
"It's not about whether it's expensive or not. It's that I don't like you. We can only be friends, not a couple. In the future, the only person I could possibly date is Ruoli. I hope you can understand that." Jiang Muye's eyes were firm.
Mi Lu said, "How will you know if you don't try? This time counts as you rejecting me once, so I still have ninety-five more times."
Jiang Muye took a deep breath. "Sister Mi Lu, you're not my type. Even if you pursued me hundreds of times, tens of thousands of times, it would be impossible for me to like you. So why can't you put in the effort once to not like me? Maybe you just won't like me anymore."
But Mi Lu still faced Jiang Muye with fiery passion. "In my whole life, it's rare for me to like even one person. Why should I quit liking you? You were hung up on Xia Xiran before, and you pursued her ninety-nine times without giving up. So why can't you wait like she did for me to pursue you ninety-nine times?"
Little White Dove chimed in from the side. "Campus Belle Mi, you stepped on a landmine. Campus Belle Xia was stringing our Muzi along—she wouldn't agree, but she wouldn't reject him either. Besides, they had that whole engaged-couple relationship before. Your situation now is different. Muzi doesn't like you, and he's already clearly rejected you."
Kai nodded. "Campus Belle Mi, you're so great. You'll definitely find someone better. Don't keep hanging yourself on the same tree—go hang on a different one."
As a result, Xiao Yue started pushing Kai. "If you can't comfort people, then don't."
Kai, having been given the side-eye by his own girlfriend, rubbed his hair in embarrassment and gave a goofy smile. "I'm a bit clumsy with my mouth and not great at talking, but everything I say comes from the heart. As long as Campus Belle Mi understands that, it's fine."
But Mi Lu was very persistent. "I understand all the reasoning, but nothing can change my heart. Jiang Muye, didn't you say you wanted to heal? Then let's heal together. Anyway, I won't change my mind about pursuing you. My future plans include you."
Life is so long, but how many times can your heart flutter?
Her heart had fluttered now. On what basis should she give up? If she didn't go all out, would she regret it one day?
If she tried just one more time, would the result be completely different?
But Jiang Muye looked at Mi Lu with firm eyes. "Then I'll make you give up right now."
In front of Mi Lu, Jiang Muye directly cupped Leng Ruoli's face and, right there in front of Mi Lu, kissed Leng Ruoli.
Leng Ruoli's lips were much thinner and lighter than he had imagined.
Very soft, and very sweet.
Jiang Muye had never kissed anyone. He was clumsy, without any technique to speak of.
He only felt his mind go blank. In that instant, he had no idea what he was doing.
Everyone around was watching the scene of Jiang Muye and Leng Ruoli kissing in astonishment.
Right on the spot, Jiang Muye had actually kissed Leng Ruoli!
His several roommates immediately got excited.
This was the kind of thing you only see once in a lifetime!
Little White Dove and Suya immediately went full spectator mode, so excited their faces turned red. They were already clapping.
After Jiang Muye and Leng Ruoli shared a light, fleeting kiss, he looked toward Mi Lu and declared, "I'm going to date Leng Ruoli."
Little White Dove screamed again and again. "Nice! That's a real man!"
Mi Lu stared dead at Jiang Muye.
Without a shred of hesitation, she charged straight forward to Jiang Muye's front.
Clang—
Jiang Muye's brain instantly crashed.
This scene shocked everyone present.
Little White Dove was so shocked her eyeballs were about to pop out.
What kind of melodramatic scene was this?!?!
He had finally sighed in relief that his roommate Muzi had at last given away his first kiss, but right after giving away his first kiss, he'd given away his second?!
Unlike that fresh, clean kiss from before, this time Campus Belle Mi was way too spicy! Were they about to put on a tongue-kissing show?!
Jiang Muye couldn't believe it. He had no clue how this had happened.
He immediately felt a softness on his lips. The kiss came at him aggressively like a flood, carrying a strong assault of alcohol.
Her red lips were sexy and fiercely seductive, just like her personality—spicy and direct, like a fiery little chili pepper, making Jiang Muye very uncomfortable.
Jiang Muye wanted to push her away, but she only grew fiercer, even trying to pry open the corner of his lips, her tongue tip poking inward, wanting to give Jiang Muye a deep kiss.
Faced with her attack, Jiang Muye bit down on Mi Lu's red lips without hesitation. Mi Lu cried out in pain, and this time she was heavily pushed away by Jiang Muye.
After being kissed, Jiang Muye's heart was screaming "fuck my life."
Every single day, some ridiculous drama had to play out. Were male college students this unsafe nowadays?
Jiang Muye started wiping his lips with the back of his hand without hesitation, but the leftover lipstick marks from Mi Lu all reminded him that he had just been forcibly kissed.
"Mi Lu, what are you planning to do?" Jiang Muye was speechless.
Leng Ruoli also bit her lower lip, looking at Mi Lu.
But Mi Lu smiled. Her eyes burned as they fixed on Jiang Muye, and she pressed both hands on the table. "You finally had your first kiss experience. Of course I had to deepen your impression and make you think carefully about which kiss suits you best."
"I said I'm going to date Leng Ruoli!" Jiang Muye couldn't understand.
He especially disliked the way Mi Lu was expressing herself.
But Mi Lu greeted him with a smile. "That doesn't affect me wanting to pursue you. Isn't having more choices a good thing?"
Faced with the stubborn Mi Lu, Jiang Muye was exhausted.
A perfectly good welcome party had now turned into this chaotic mess.
"You're drunk. Calm down properly. But it's impossible between us, and it'll be impossible in the future too. Besides, I don't need Spare Tires. It's cruel to you, and it's a restraint on me." Jiang Muye instinctively grabbed Leng Ruoli's hand and said to her, "Let's go."
But Leng Ruoli didn't move an inch.
Jiang Muye looked at Leng Ruoli in confusion. "What's wrong?"
Leng Ruoli shook her head and said very seriously, "We can't be together."
