Chapter 150: Timely Help

After the 99th Rejected Proposal, the Aloof Campus Belle Fell For Me

Boss Cutie

Father Leng didn't move at all, and simply drank his tea.

What was so good about carrots? It wasn't as if she'd never eaten them before.

As a result, Father Leng discovered that his daughter had already picked up a carrot and was crunching on it.

With the very first bite, her eyes lit up, and she nodded repeatedly. "So sweet! It's so good! As crisp as an apple. No, even better than an apple!"

Father Leng chuckled. "It's just a carrot. How tasty could it possibly be? Apples are definitely better."

Father Leng was a rather picky person, and he wasn't too fond of the taste of carrots. But seeing Leng Ruoli eating with such relish, it didn't look like she was trying to please Jiang Muye on purpose, either. It was genuinely quite delicious.

After finishing one, Leng Ruoli couldn't help but start on another.

Father Leng's interest was piqued. Is it really that good? Why can't my daughter stop eating them?

Naturally, Father Leng picked up a carrot and took a bite himself.

The instant he bit down, the sweetness hit him.

It really was quite sweet.

The flavor was excellent!

How was it like an apple? It was even more delicious than an apple!

Father Leng grew excited. He especially loved the taste of these carrots: sweet to the point of juicing, without much of that carrot flavor, and really similar to an apple.

Father Leng ate with great relish.

When he saw Leng Ruoli finish another one, he grew a bit anxious.

He was afraid that Leng Ruoli would finish them all, and he hadn't even finished the one in his hand yet. So he hurriedly grabbed the next carrot, worried there'd be nothing left to eat if he lingered.

When Jiang Muye saw Father Leng's reaction, he knew Father Leng was extremely satisfied.

How could the fruits and vegetables cultivated with the System's potions possibly taste bad?

"Not bad at all!" Father Leng nodded. Jiang Muye then brought out other fruits as well: mangosteens, apples, oranges, strawberries, all plump and sweet to the bite, their quality completely beyond reproach.

Father Leng was a CEO, after all, and he immediately spotted a business opportunity.

He looked at Jiang Muye with a smile. "Name your price. How much would it take for me to buy it?"

Jiang Muye shook his head directly. "Sorry, Uncle, I'm not selling."

The estate was his experimental project right now, and also the source of the fruits and vegetables for his supermarket. Since things were going so well, how could he just hand it over?

Not to mention that the estate would be open to the public later, and a holiday resort or farm stay project alone would be enough to earn a fortune.

Father Leng felt a bit regretful. Then his mind turned, and he said, "Then I'll invest and become your shareholder. All these fruits can be exported overseas, following the word-of-mouth route. It's sure to be a huge success."

Jiang Muye had originally been worrying about how to sell his fruits and vegetables overseas, and now Father Leng's words had directly solved his urgent problem. "Sure."

Father Leng was clearly serious. He immediately contacted his lawyer, and after the contract was signed, he became the second shareholder of Jiang Muye's estate.

This was going far too smoothly.

Jiang Muye had still been lacking an investment sponsor for his chain of capital, and now the sponsor had simply appeared.

With Father Leng protecting him, wouldn't it be even smoother to register a listed company in the future?

After Jiang Muye laid out his career plans, Father Leng appreciated him even more.

"Young people really do have good ideas. As expected of the young man my daughter's taken a fancy to! Wonderful!" Father Leng nodded in satisfaction.

The praise made Jiang Muye a bit embarrassed.

Father Leng also added Jiang Muye on WeChat. "If you have any business problems, you can always come to me. You're my future son-in-law, after all. I treat you like family, so don't be shy."

"I won't."

Jiang Muye was actually quite pleasantly surprised. He'd only wanted to entertain the man, and had never imagined he'd bring himself a sponsor. It really was like a willow that grows shade without even being planted.

Father Leng flew back the next day.

To play the good host, Jiang Muye had specially mailed over a dozen boxes of each kind of fruit, enough to satisfy Father Leng's appetite.

But what Jiang Muye had never imagined was that the few dozen boxes of fruit he'd sent would bring him an unexpected delight.

At a private banquet, Father Leng specially brought out the fruit Jiang Muye had sent to entertain his guests.

After all, Jiang Muye's fruit was the best: fresh and delicious.

When the guests inadvertently took a bite of Jiang Muye's fruit, their eyes lit up, and they asked, "Whose fruit is this? How is it so delicious!"

"Exactly. This strawberry is so sweet, the flavor is incredible."

"The flavor really is amazing! CEO Leng, where did you buy this fruit?"

Seeing everyone's gazes full of curiosity, Father Leng felt smug and began to show off. "It's grown at my future son-in-law's estate back home. Delicious, isn't it?"

"Is your son-in-law some kind of fruit king?"

"That's right. The fruit really is delicious. It feels perfect as a raw material for my family's products."

"My family needs some too! CEO Leng, hurry up and introduce us to your future son-in-law!"

Seeing everyone anxiously asking for his contact information, Father Leng was only too happy to give them a push. After all, if his future son-in-law made money, his benefits as a shareholder would be considerable too.

That very day, Jiang Muye's orders exploded.

In the estate's warehouse, orders poured out in an endless stream.

The workers packed express deliveries through the night, attaching tracking numbers.

They had just finished three thousand orders when, in the blink of an eye, five thousand more came in.

Jiang Muye was left in awe.

It was his first time seeing his fruits and vegetables sell so well.

Looking at the stream of orders, he didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "They're in such high demand they're out of stock."

His supermarket was about to open, and when that time came, he wouldn't even have fruits and vegetables left to sell.

In the end, Jiang Muye adopted a VIP membership system, where only members with advance reservations could receive goods. Only then did the chaotic process become orderly.

With the representatives Father Leng sent to help, Jiang Muye handled it with ease.

But there were still too many orders, and not enough workers.

Jiang Muye had to help out himself, packing through the night.

When his several animal roommates heard that Jiang Muye's estate was busy and sales were high, they hurried over to help.

They didn't take a single cent from Jiang Muye. If it meant staying up all night, then they'd stay up all night.

The sky gradually darkened, and the group was still busy in the warehouse. They'd been at it all day, and there were still many orders unfinished.

Just as Jiang Muye was so busy he'd lost track of time, a figure suddenly appeared.

"Alright, everyone, come eat. I bought boxed meals for everyone~" A familiar female voice rang out.

Jiang Muye saw Leng Ruoli walk in with several people, and she began distributing the boxed meals from the foam boxes to everyone.

He was deeply moved. He'd been so busy he hadn't even had time to arrange for food delivery, and it was Leng Ruoli who had thought of it.

"Wow, the Cold Campus Belle is so nice!" Little White Dove was thrilled. He could smell the boxed meals, and he was overjoyed.

Kai was excited too. To eat fragrant, piping-hot food when exhausted was simply a kind of bliss.

After helping distribute the meals, Leng Ruoli saw Jiang Muye still packing diligently and quickly grabbed two boxed meals before walking over.

"Here, eat up."

The clear, pleasant voice rang out, making Jiang Muye raise his head, and he saw Leng Ruoli's gentle face.
