Chapter 126: From Unlucky to Lucky

Jiang Muye: Rejected 99 Times, the Aloof Campus Belle Aggressively Pursues Me

Boss Cutie

Little White Dove guiltily tried to hide her milk tea.

Jiang Xueli went straight for the kill, smiling at Jiang Muye. "My silly Brother, of course I'm drinking yours."

"Uh, brothers are like clothes, no wait, what am I saying, ahhhh, I was wrong!" Facing Jiang Muye's pursuit, Little White Dove naturally ran.

Of course, Jiang Muye was Little Cheetah, and with the System boosting his stamina and speed, Little White Dove was no match for Jiang Muye. Sure enough, he was caught in no time.

Little White Dove was rewarded with a round of knuckle sandwiches, and followed Jiang Muye miserably.

Meanwhile, Jiang Muye sipped the milk tea he'd taken from Little White Dove with relish, and continued browsing the comic convention with everyone.

Apart from some game events, coming to a comic convention naturally meant buying merchandise.

Not buying merchandise would mean the trip was wasted.

The dazzling array of merchandise was especially tempting, particularly the figurines from popular big IPs that made you want to buy the moment you saw them.

"Kotobukiya Railgun is the best! This figurine is my love, oh my god, it's eight hundred! Sure enough, once you enter a comic convention it's as deep as the sea, my money's gone and never coming back." Little White Dove clicked her tongue.

"Who can inherit my Ant Huabei? The Goddess Rei 1:8 figurine, I really love it!" Old He got excited.

"I want to buy a high-grade model, but it's way too expensive. Play with high-grade models and you'll be poor for three generations." Kai sighed. "I can only look."

"What's there to agonize over? If you like it, buy it. I'll buy them for you." Jiang Muye put his arms around their shoulders.

"For real?" Three pairs of yearning eyes looked at Jiang Muye.

"Isn't that obvious? I can afford these. I haven't given you guys anything before, so let me make up for it with some gifts now." Seeing his good friends' interest, Jiang Muye certainly had to buy these things.

College students were tight on living expenses these days, and consumption was high. Jiang Muye didn't want to see them hold back from buying things just because their pockets were empty.

They were just small merchandise items. He could afford them.

"You're a real brother! Tonight I'll pour you hot water to wash your feet!" Little White Dove got excited.

Old He nodded vigorously. "I'll never secretly use your facial cleanser to wash my feet again."

Kai said, "When you write your thesis, I'll help you collect materials and even go print them for you!"

"Alright, alright." Jiang Muye nodded repeatedly.

But soon Jiang Muye remembered something and quickly asked Old He, "What did you just say?"

Old He immediately covered his mouth.

"Fuck you, no wonder my facial cleanser smelled like stinky feet, you son of a bitch, I'm gonna kill you!" Jiang Muye directly put Old He in a headlock.

Old He cried for help.

Kai and Little White Dove walked away snickering, naturally refusing to save him.

After dealing with Old He, Jiang Muye continued looking at figurines.

"Brother, is there anything you like?" Jiang Xueli leaned in close to Jiang Muye.

"There don't seem to be any of this year's One Piece Christmas-themed figurines here." Jiang Muye laid eyes on it and furrowed his brow.

"Seems so." Jiang Xueli scanned the area. "Nope."

Leng Ruoli, who had been looking at figurines with Mi Lu, immediately looked over.

Her thoughts had all been pulled toward Jiang Muye, her eyes full of him.

Jiang Muye said lightly, "It's fine, this Christmas theme was always hard to get anyway. It's limited edition, after all."

"That's a real shame, but let me ask around for you." Jiang Xueli certainly didn't want her Brother to be disappointed.

Mi Lu pointed at the Chopper figurine in the display window and tugged at Leng Ruoli. "How about it? Does this one look good?"

Leng Ruoli nodded. "It looks good."

But her mind was entirely on Jiang Muye.

"Jiang Muye, what do you think? Should I buy this for you?" Mi Lu saw Jiang Muye walk by and smiled at him cheerfully.

Looking at the enthusiastic Mi Lu, Jiang Muye said tactfully, "Sorry, I really have a lot of these figurines already. No need. If there's something I like, I can buy it myself."

System: 【Congratulations, Host, on rejecting Mi Lu. Obtained two hundred Grit Points.】

Mi Lu pouted her lips and muttered, "But I just want to buy it for you~"

"You can keep the money for yourself. No need to spend it on me." Jiang Muye sincerely suggested.

"No way, you're my darling~ I definitely have to buy it for you!" Mi Lu acted coquettishly toward Jiang Muye.

Jiang Muye was helpless. "Sister Mi Lu, I won't like you. Give up as soon as possible."

"Then I'll pursue you for the 94th time!"

"…Then even if you pursue me 94 more times, I'll still reject you." Jiang Muye hardened his heart and said very firmly, "Sister Mi Lu, let's be friends. Isn't that a great relationship? Why be lovers and add trouble for nothing? Actually, two people being a couple will produce a lot of conflicts, and I'm not as good as you think."

"Heh heh, dating is about tolerating each other's flaws. Who cares about being your friend? I've got plenty of connections, missing you won't matter. But as for boyfriends, I just want one more~" Mi Lu winked at Jiang Muye.

"Sister Mi Lu, don't cling to my Brother so tightly, you'll scare him off." Jiang Xueli came over and pulled Mi Lu away just as she was about to press herself against Jiang Muye. "Girls should be a bit more reserved."

As Jiang Xueli led Mi Lu away, she winked at Jiang Muye and mouthed: You owe me a meal.

Jiang Muye couldn't help but smile. This little clever girl.

At that moment, the VVVVVVVVVIP lucky bag area was hawking, "Come one, come all, don't miss out on what you see. Twenty won't buy you a loss, twenty won't buy you a scam, one draw might take you from unlucky to European!"

Little White Dove complained, "Don't draw these lucky bags, they're just traps for newbies. What comes out are all junk packs."

But Jiang Muye said to Little White Dove, "Go draw one. Might really take you from unlucky to European."

Little White Dove's eyes went wide. "What are the odds of that? Even if you're rich now, you shouldn't squander it on this."

But Jiang Muye insisted on drawing. After all, he had a hundred percent draw rate. How could he waste this opportunity?

Without a shred of hesitation, Jiang Muye picked up a lucky bag and opened it.

It made Little White Dove insanely jealous. "Oh my god, a limited edition Hatsune Miku PSP? A Conan mug, a Gintama limited hanging scroll and Yorozuya figurine, an Onmyoji SSR exchange card, a Genshin Bluetooth speaker? Is this what a lucky bag is supposed to have?"

Even the seller was stunned.

This was the first-prize grand gift pack. There was only one such limited VVVVVVVVVIP lucky bag, and someone drew it in one go?

How many unlucky souls, upon seeing Jiang Muye's explosive European luck, were filled with envy.

Jiang Muye continued with blind boxes and draws, and what came out was either limited edition Gundam figurines or a first-prize Haier refrigerator.

This made the others cry with envy.

Jiang Muye was quite satisfied. He did a ten-pull and drew a huge pile of stuff, about to make the seller cry. The seller directly said, "I'll give you five hundred yuan, go draw at the place across the street."

Jiang Muye accepted the five hundred and went across the street, and the outcome was naturally returning fully loaded.

After Leng Ruoli returned to the dorm, she opened her computer and kept searching for something.

Leng Ruoli also kept her head down sending text messages. Even when Mi Lu bought takeout, Leng Ruoli couldn't be bothered to eat.

Mi Lu asked curiously, "At least eat something before you busy yourself. What are you doing?"
