Chapter 213: We're in the Honeymoon Phase

Rejected 99 Times, the Aloof Campus Belle Comes On Strong: Jiang Muye

Boss Cutie

When Xia Xiran heard Yu Xi's words, she was instantly enlivened.

She wanted to be with Jiang Muye like a madwoman. Every day, the gossip that reached her ears was about how Jiang Muye and Leng Ruoli were flaunting their affection, how sweet the two of them were.

Xia Xiran was incomparably jealous.

If only she could replace Leng Ruoli and receive Jiang Muye's doting.

Then she would be the one everyone admired.

"I really do want to be with Jiang Muye, but Jiang Muye and Leng Ruoli are in the throes of a passionate romance. I've tried many methods, but there's nothing I can do about that." Xia Xiran sighed regretfully.

Yu Xi's lips curved upward. He walked up to Xia Xiran and bent down, looking at her with a very serious expression. "So I'm your savior, sent to help you. This time, our one-plus-one strength will be greater than two. We'll definitely achieve our goal."

Xia Xiran saw Yu Xi's gleaming eyes, and she had no way of knowing where the confidence came from, but she was no longer dispirited.

Even if there was only a sliver of hope, she wouldn't give up.

Now that she had an opportunity, she certainly couldn't refuse to grasp it well.

The next day, after the morning classes ended.

Jiang Muye asked Leng Ruoli out to eat in the cafeteria.

"There's crispy fried chicken wings today. Let's go early so we can still buy some. Last time we went too late, and they were all sold out." Jiang Muye said to Leng Ruoli with a chuckle.

When Leng Ruoli heard there were crispy fried chicken wings, she licked her lips. "Those are especially delicious!"

Those were the cafeteria lady's signature chicken wings, specially made with a blend of Lao Gan Ma and a special seasoning powder. The flavor was uniquely delicious.

So once they were introduced, they sold out extremely quickly.

"Alright, little glutton, let's go now." Jiang Muye dotingly rubbed Leng Ruoli's nose.

By the time they reached the counter, the crispy fried chicken wings were already more than half gone.

There was still a long line ahead.

Jiang Muye had never imagined that right after he and Leng Ruoli finished class, the cafeteria would already have so many people.

After Leng Ruoli was about to line up behind Jiang Muye, he unhesitatingly pulled her in front of him and said, "Here, you stand here. When it's your turn, the odds of there still being some are higher."

"But what if it's your turn and there aren't any left?" Leng Ruoli looked at Jiang Muye with her moist eyes.

"As long as you get to eat, isn't that enough?" Jiang Muye smirked and wrapped his arm around Leng Ruoli's slender waist, resting his face on her delicate shoulder and saying with a smile, "If I kiss you, I'll know what it tastes like too."

To Jiang Muye, just watching Leng Ruoli eat was enough to satisfy him.

After hearing Jiang Muye's words, Leng Ruoli's little face turned bright red.

So the two of them began to line up.

The cafeteria lady's serving of crispy fried chicken wings was getting smaller and smaller. Leng Ruoli was growing a little anxious from waiting, her eyes fixed straight ahead.

She was afraid that when the time came, they really would run out and the two of them wouldn't get to eat any.

After a while, it was finally Jiang Muye and Leng Ruoli's turn.

"Ah, I called it. There's only one left." Leng Ruoli was very regretful.

Now there really was only one crispy fried chicken wing left.

Leng Ruoli turned around to look at Jiang Muye.

Jiang Muye's lips curved upward and he signaled to Leng Ruoli. "Naturally, it's for you."

He had the cafeteria lady put the chicken wing on Leng Ruoli's tray, then got her a few dishes. He himself also ordered four dishes, two vegetables and two meats, then carried his tray and found a seat by the window.

"I'll go get us some soup. Thank you for leaving the chicken wing for me." Leng Ruoli's pretty face revealed a playful smile.

Jiang Muye was very worried. "Be careful, don't burn your hands. Let's go together."

"No, you just sit here." Leng Ruoli pushed the about-to-rise Jiang Muye back down. "I'll go by myself."

Jiang Muye looked at Leng Ruoli dotingly. "Go and come back quickly."

"Okay." Leng Ruoli went to get Jiang Muye some soup.

Today's cafeteria soup was Seaweed Egg-Drop Soup. She lined up for a short while and reached the front, taking two metal bowls and getting soup for herself and Jiang Muye.

After placing the two bowls of soup on the tray, Leng Ruoli walked toward Jiang Muye.

Just as she was about to get there, a figure suddenly flashed past and abruptly cut in front of Leng Ruoli. She felt the tray she was holding get bumped.

With a "clang," the sound of water rang out.

Leng Ruoli was startled to find that more than half the soup had spilled out, all of it splashing onto the denim jacket of the boy in front of her. Soon it was a wet patch, very obvious.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to!" Leng Ruoli apologized nervously when she saw.

"It's fine, it was me who didn't see you." A clear voice rang out.

Leng Ruoli's expression paused, and she looked up to see a pair of warm eyes.

He gazed at Leng Ruoli fervently, causing her eyes to instantly grow cold.

"Oh." Leng Ruoli's red lips pressed lightly, and she suddenly became very cold.

"This jacket probably needs to be dry-cleaned, otherwise it'll easily leave a stain. Do you know where there's a good laundry? Could you introduce me to one?" Yu Xi looked at Leng Ruoli gently and took a step forward, but before Leng Ruoli could back away, a slender figure suddenly blocked in front of her.

"I can introduce you to one, no problem." Jiang Muye raised an eyebrow. "I can pay the dry-cleaning fee for you too."

Yu Xi looked at Jiang Muye, who had appeared before him arrogant and domineering, and muttered, "Alright." His gaze fell on Leng Ruoli again. "Go together?"

"Is there any need for such trouble? Naturally, I'll just go with you." Jiang Muye gritted his teeth, then his tone softened as he looked at Leng Ruoli. He raised his hand and patted Leng Ruoli's little head, saying, "Be good, eat your meal well. I'll go deal with this first, and come back to eat with you in a bit."

"Okay." Leng Ruoli had complete trust in Jiang Muye. She believed he could definitely handle it.

Jiang Muye watched with satisfaction as Leng Ruoli sat back down, then cast a cold gaze on Yu Xi. He grabbed Yu Xi by the front of his clothes and dragged him out domineeringly.

Yu Xi was also caught off guard, having never imagined that Jiang Muye would do such a thing in front of everyone.

Not caring at all what others thought, Jiang Muye did as he pleased, his aura fully unleashed, his brows filled with arrogance and dominance.

"Clang—" After dragging Yu Xi to the men's restroom, Jiang Muye slammed him against the wall with a clang.

Several guys who were originally peeing shuddered and were so frightened they splashed their hands.

Oh my god, they'd peed crooked.

Jiang Muye said nothing at all. He just swept his eyes over the few onlookers, and they panicked and quickly left the scene.

At this moment, only Jiang Muye and Yu Xi were left in the room.

Yu Xi suddenly laughed and began to tug at his clothes, smoothing out the wrinkles. "Alright, was there any need to be so rough? Have you forgotten that the injuries you gave me not long ago haven't healed yet?"

Jiang Muye pressed closer, his eyes full of hostility. "You're the type to forget the pain once the wound heals. Otherwise, would you even learn your lesson after some suffering?"

Yu Xi smiled and said, "The fact that you can get so angry at me, doesn't that mean you care about me?"

"What fucking logic!"

"The fact that you want to take me down, doesn't that mean you see me as a rival?" Yu Xi paused for a moment, a trace of mockery in his eyes. "Are you afraid of me? Afraid that an identical me will snatch away everything most important to you?"
