Chapter 21: What Bad Intentions Could the Cold Campus Belle Have? She's Just a Little Kitten

Jiang Muye's eyes were blazing, tall and handsome. He wore only a simple white shirt, but he carried himself with an air of distinction.

Everyone was stunned.

Leng Ruoli, the Cold Campus Belle who was known far and wide for her coldness, now wore a radiant smile, her face flushed, as she ran up to Jiang Muye.

When she smiled, it was as if the whole world began to brighten.

Deep affection was hidden in her brilliant eyes.

Without a shred of hesitation, she raised the breakfast up in front of Jiang Muye and said with a smile, "I brought you breakfast. I don't know if you'll like it."

At this, quite a few of the boys began to sour with envy.

Never mind the Cold Campus Belle bringing him breakfast—even a single smile from her would have been worth it.

Jiang Muye was truly bursting with good fortune!

It was a pillow arriving just as one got sleepy—he hadn't managed to chase Campus Belle Xia, yet he could earn the favor of the Cold Campus Belle, who was even prettier and richer than Campus Belle Xia!

Jiang Muye was definitely no simple guy!

In fact, considering that the Cold Campus Belle had the highest popularity of all—otherwise, how could she be first among the Four Great Campus Belles?

Jiang Muye was also quite surprised. He was entirely unprepared for Leng Ruoli to bring him breakfast now.

He knew that Leng Ruoli had feelings for him, but he hadn't expected her to be so bold in front of everyone.

Jiang Muye had also looked into Leng Ruoli's past. She liked quiet, and never sought the spotlight.

But to bring him breakfast in front of so many people—she definitely liked him very much.

Jiang Muye was instantly overwhelmed by the favor.

This was also the first time he had received breakfast from a girl.

And a super great Campus Belle, at that!

Jiang Muye's ears grew a bit hot. "Um, I've already eaten breakfast. You should eat it."

That wasn't a lie. When he was upstairs, Jiang Muye had made do with some milk and bread.

But he hadn't imagined that Leng Ruoli would be waiting downstairs with breakfast.

When Jiang Muye handed the breakfast back to Leng Ruoli, the whole crowd was shocked.

Was this a joke?

This was breakfast from the Cold Campus Belle, and Jiang Muye actually hadn't accepted it?

This guy was a super straight man!

The crowd was now filled with frustration at his failure to seize the opportunity. They were burning with envy and jealousy, unable to get a bite themselves, and yet here was someone who didn't even want it.

Truly, comparing people was maddening.

【Congratulations, Host, on rejecting the Cold Campus Belle's breakfast. Reward: two million. Backbone Value increased by five hundred. Please keep up the good work.】

The system's notification caught Jiang Muye by surprise.

How was this the No-Soft Rice System?

This was a Single Dog System, one that wanted him to die alone.

Still, rejecting the breakfast was for the best. Leng Ruoli would know when to back off.

He really had no interest in romance right now. If he could, he just wanted to study hard and earn money well.

After Leng Ruoli took the breakfast back, she didn't start crying pitifully. Even though she felt a bit disappointed, she absolutely wouldn't give up on herself over a little rejection like this.

"Then can I keep bringing you breakfast tomorrow? If that really won't work, we can go to the cafeteria and eat together."

Leng Ruoli's clear eyes, like a fawn's, gazed at Jiang Muye as she still persisted without giving up.

Looking at her innocent face, Jiang Muye suddenly felt a bit of reluctance.

Leng Ruoli hastily added, "Just consider it payment for you playing games with me, okay?"

She was filled with longing.

While Jiang Muye was hesitating over how to reply, Little White Dove and Old He came downstairs and excitedly answered, "Good, good, good! Then let's eat together at noon!"

"What are you two doing!" Jiang Muye glared at the two animals who had slung their arms around his shoulders.

How could they answer for him first?

"What bad intentions could the Cold Campus Belle have? She just wants to have a meal with us. It's hard to refuse such hospitality," Little White Dove said with a chuckle.

Old He nodded. "Yeah, we have to be gentlemen once. It's just a meal together—are you going to lose a piece of meat?"

Jiang Muye felt that directly refusing really wasn't very gentlemanly, and besides, so many people were watching. He couldn't shoot down her pride.

She was a girl, after all.

"All right, then."

Leng Ruoli instantly said with a shy blush, "Then see you at noon."

She smiled slightly and left.

Jiang Muye looked at the grinning Old He and Little White Dove and said, "How come you two are happier than I am?"

"Muzi, you've really got some skill. First thing in the morning, the Cold Campus Belle comes to bring you breakfast and even asks you to a meal."

"Yeah, you're the light of our dorm. To think single guys are so sought-after these days—the Cold Campus Belle is so devoted to you!"

Jiang Muye figured that was right. For a girl to be so forward was a very rare thing.

Especially when that person was the highly popular Leng Ruoli.

To humble herself and chase him—she must be completely open about it.

Jiang Muye could already feel the envious and jealous gazes from all directions. In everyone's eyes, being pursued so actively by the Cold Campus Belle was a glorious thing.

"But seriously, Muzi, do you actually have feelings for the Cold Campus Belle?" Little White Dove asked curiously.

"I don't know," Jiang Muye said. "Honestly, I haven't even adjusted my own state yet. After all, I just got out of my last relationship, and I didn't expect to enter the next one."

"You don't need to put so much pressure on yourself. Just try being with her for a while. Maybe through contact you'll come to like her," Old He said, draping an arm over Jiang Muye's shoulder. "Besides, the Cold Campus Belle is so pretty, with such a smoking-hot figure."

"There's no harm in getting to know her," Old He said.

Jiang Muye didn't want to stay stuck in his own shell, and he felt they had a point.

He wanted to try looking at a new world—maybe he'd discover new scenery.

With that thought, Jiang Muye no longer felt so much pressure.

While Jiang Muye and his roommates went to class, Dorm 306 was in chaos.

Yuanyuan said excitedly, "I heard that Leng Ruoli went to bring Jiang Muye breakfast today!"

"Seriously?" The Girl with Glasses's eyes went wide.

She had never imagined that the Cold Campus Belle, usually so reserved and aloof, could be so bold!

"Of course it's true! The whole campus network is talking about it. Jiang Muye became famous overnight—all the boys in school are dying with envy!"

Yuanyuan spoke with particular excitement. "I heard the Cold Campus Belle even invited Jiang Muye to a meal!"

Just then, a clatter came from outside.

It was Xia Xiran, who had just walked in—her phone had fallen to the floor.

"So did he agree?" Xia Xiran pressed anxiously.

Yuanyuan instinctively began telling Xia Xiran, "Of course he agreed. It was the Cold Campus Belle inviting him, after all!"

After hearing Yuanyuan's words, Xia Xiran's heart immediately shattered.

She was entirely unprepared for Jiang Muye to actually agree to eat with Leng Ruoli.

Seeing Xia Xiran's utterly dejected look, the Girl with Glasses immediately began encouraging her. "So what if they're eating together? It's not like they're dating! As long as they're not together, we still have our chances. Maybe he's just doing this to make you jealous."

Xia Xiran's eyes instantly lit up.

That was right. She absolutely couldn't give up.

If Leng Ruoli really succeeded, she would definitely regret it to death.

Since the person she liked was Jiang Muye, she had to go all out.

So at noon, just as Jiang Muye finished class, he heard a commotion outside.

Soon someone excitedly came to notify Jiang Muye, saying, "Hurry up, someone's looking for you outside."
