Chapter 186: Tonight's Biggest Task Is to Coax You to Sleep

Rejected 99 Times, the Aloof Campus Belle Comes On Strong

Boss Cutie

Jiang Muye watched as Leng Ruoli walked over to the fruit scattered across the ground. She lowered her head and began slowly sorting through it, putting it all back into the baskets.

Without a shred of hesitation, he walked over and started gathering the fruit together with Leng Ruoli.

Leng Ruoli looked up and met Jiang Muye's deep eyes.

"Then let's fight side by side. I told you, my special ability is everywhere, and now you've successfully activated it." Jiang Muye smiled faintly.

Leng Ruoli nodded, her little face excited, and got busy alongside Jiang Muye.

From the pitch-black night, all the way until the sky began to show a faint light, gradually approaching dawn.

Only then was the scene finally cleaned up. The fruits and vegetables had already been trucked back to the Jiang's Fruit Enterprise center, waiting to be reassembled and processed.

Meanwhile, Jiang Muye and Leng Ruoli sat in the back seat of the car, with the secretary driving up front.

By now, Jiang Muye was so exhausted he had no strength left, but he couldn't sleep either, his eyes open and listless.

The petite beauty curled up in his arms, Leng Ruoli, had her eyes open as well.

Jiang Muye saw that she was so sleepy she kept yawning, yet still refused to sleep.

"Sleep for a bit, be good."

Leng Ruoli's eyes were glistening as she gazed at him earnestly. "I'll keep you company. You sleep, then I'll sleep."

"Then I won't be able to sleep either," Leng Ruoli said quietly, rubbing her soft little face against Jiang Muye.

Jiang Muye's heart was about to melt. He kissed Leng Ruoli's forehead tenderly. "You're this sleepy and still putting up a front. Hurry up and sleep, or else my biggest task tonight will be coaxing you to bed."

After seeing the deep affection in Jiang Muye's eyes, Leng Ruoli nodded obediently.

She rested her head on Jiang Muye's shoulder and fell asleep.

Jiang Muye caught a glimpse of her fair, delicate little face as she slowly drifted off against him, looking utterly innocent and harmless.

This sent gentle ripples through Jiang Muye's heart.

He felt very fortunate to have met Leng Ruoli. When he was at his most exhausted, she was there to lean on in his arms.

She needed him, and wasn't he the same—needing her?

The secretary drove Jiang Muye back to the duplex ocean-view villa at Jiangling Garden.

As soon as they arrived, Jiang Muye carried Leng Ruoli upstairs.

He gently removed Leng Ruoli's shoes, then his gaze locked onto her soft, delicate body, especially her proud, curving figure, which made Jiang Muye's mouth go dry.

He definitely had no intention of waking Leng Ruoli.

She had been with him all night and was thoroughly worn out.

Jiang Muye only hesitated for a dozen seconds before reaching out to unzip the back of Leng Ruoli's dress.

What his fingers touched was a velvety smoothness.

Although he had touched it last time, it still sent his adrenaline soaring, the stimulation doubled.

Jiang Muye held his breath and stared, forcing all those wicked thoughts to the back of his mind.

He carefully peeled the dress off Leng Ruoli.

The spring scenery filling his eyes made Jiang Muye's fingers tremble.

His breathing grew urgent, and he quickly averted his gaze, hastily changing Leng Ruoli into the lace nightgown he had prepared in the wardrobe beforehand.

He had bought it earlier.

The first time he saw it in the shop window, he had pictured her wearing it, lying beside him.

But unlike the wild, entwined scene he had imagined, now it was in this quiet setting that he put the lace nightgown on Leng Ruoli.

Leng Ruoli's skin was fair to begin with, and this lace nightgown made her look pink and white, her skin like congealed cream, stirring tender affection.

Jiang Muye lovingly brushed aside Leng Ruoli's soft brown hair, then leaned over by the bedside and gently began wiping Leng Ruoli's face.

In her dreams, Leng Ruoli clearly felt the uncomfortable heat and murmured in her sleep, but it wasn't the angry kind—it was a coquettish mumble.

Cute as a little dolphin.

Jiang Muye laughed out loud at the sight. After he finished wiping Leng Ruoli's face, he went to the bathroom to shower, then quickly returned to the room.

He really couldn't sleep.

After all, he had no small number of things to handle right now.

But to avoid disturbing Leng Ruoli's sleep, Jiang Muye quietly turned on a bedside lamp, leaving Leng Ruoli in a dark environment to sleep peacefully.

Jiang Muye opened WeChat, where there were naturally messages of concern from his aunt and parents, as well as a few from his roommates.

To keep them from worrying, Jiang Muye didn't make a big deal of things, and made clear that he would handle everything.

There were plenty of trivial matters at work, and reading them made Jiang Muye quite annoyed.

But the moment Jiang Muye looked at Leng Ruoli sleeping beside him, he felt his weary body and mind become comfortable, all his original pressure vanishing.

At his most troubled, she did nothing at all—just lying by his side was the best comfort.

Jiang Muye leaned down and趴 beside Leng Ruoli's neck. As if released from a burden, he slowly fell asleep.

The next day, Jiang Muye slowly opened his eyes after sensing movement beside him.

He saw the charming, delicate-featured Leng Ruoli looking a little shy and flustered, so he greeted her lazily, "Morning. Awake this early, didn't sleep a bit more? You went to bed so late last night."

"Morning. Did you change my nightgown?" Leng Ruoli's face was very shy.

Jiang Muye chuckled lowly, flicked the tip of Leng Ruoli's nose, and said, "You've long since been seen all over by me. What, still shy now? Don't worry, I didn't do anything. Last time I hurt my baby, so this time I can't tire my baby out."

Of course, last time it was only with his fingers, and it hadn't gone smoothly. So next time, Jiang Muye would learn from last time's lesson and make sure everything came naturally.

Leng Ruoli's ears turned red. "That's not what I meant. I'm embarrassed—I just fell asleep on you and made you go to the trouble."

She stuck out her tongue sheepishly. "Next time you sleep first, and I'll change your nightgown."

"Hm? Planning something wicked?" Jiang Muye laughed out loud.

Leng Ruoli's face flushed crimson. "No! I just want you to sleep more comfortably by my side."

"Haha, I'm afraid it'll be me who's uncomfortable then. After all, someone's setting fires everywhere—it'd be a wonder if I could sleep. I'd probably be up all night."

Jiang Muye was well aware of his own stamina and energy.

Although it was still his first time, he was young and vigorous.

Leng Ruoli's little hand gently pushed Jiang Muye. The corner of Jiang Muye's mouth curved up, and he coaxed Leng Ruoli, "It's still early. Sleep a while."

"You too."

"Okay." Jiang Muye nodded. "Be good, close your eyes."

His hand covered Leng Ruoli's eyes.

But Leng Ruoli playfully pulled his hand away, her watery eyes gazing at him. "You close your eyes first, then I'll close mine."

"You close your eyes," Jiang Muye said.

"You close your eyes."

"Pfft, are we really having such a childish conversation?" The corner of Jiang Muye's mouth lifted.

Leng Ruoli's face warmed slightly, and she looked at Jiang Muye with a smile. "Then let's close them together."

"Okay, I'll count to three, and we close them together," Jiang Muye said, feeling relaxed and happy.

Leng Ruoli started counting, "Three, two, one…"

After the count, the two lay head to head, their breaths intertwining.

When they woke in the afternoon, Jiang Muye was full of energy again.

For the orders already received, Jiang Muye had the warehouse pick, pack, and install overnight, then ship them out.

After that, Jiang Muye exchanged for the Top-Tier SSSS-Grade Fruit and Vegetable Potion, making the fruit trees bloom and bear fruit in the shortest time possible, growing the plumpest, freshest fruit.

But the loophole had been patched—yet the fruits and vegetables that had been overturned on the truck earlier still needed handling.

Some of the fruits and vegetables just had friction marks on the surface. They definitely couldn't be sold directly as goods, but throwing them away would be too wasteful.

At least fifty million in losses.
