Chapter 309: My Waist Is Amazingly Good
Rejected 99 Times, the Aloof Campus Belle Comes On Strong
Boss Cutie
"I'm actually pretty good at this. How about I help Uncle pound the glutinous rice?" Jiang Muye pointed at Eldest Brother, who was not far away and panting as he pounded the rice, and spoke to the pastry shop owner.
The pastry shop owner thought Jiang Muye was joking, and said with a laugh, "My son's been helping me pound glutinous rice for three or four years now, and even he gets tired doing it. Forget it, forget it."
Not to mention that his son was a big, burly sort.
Really tough, covered in fat, and full of power when he pounded—and even he got tired.
Not to mention Jiang Muye, who looked like he'd never done heavy work in his life.
He'd probably be panting after a few strikes, and might even hurt his hands.
After all, pounding glutinous rice was a skilled job. It placed great demands on strength and perseverance. Without a bit of stamina, you'd give up before long.
"It's fine, I can do it. Let me give it a try," Jiang Muye said confidently.
The pastry shop owner shook his head.
Young people these days, still too young. They had to get a good beating from society before they'd learn.
"Alright, give it a try then." That was what he said, but he was completely unconvinced about Jiang Muye.
Even the others who admired Jiang Muye were now a bit worried.
Some were there to watch the fun, thinking Jiang Muye was just showing off.
Others felt for Jiang Muye and got ready to hand him water and wipe his sweat.
Only Leng Ruoli looked at Jiang Muye calmly. Her pretty little face was full of trust in him, and her small pink fists were clenched tight as she cheered him on, "Go for it!"
When Jiang Muye saw Leng Ruoli, his eyes went very gentle.
Leng Ruoli's voice was sweeter than a honey peach.
It struck right at his heart.
Would he get tired? No way.
He was the man who was going to be the Pirate King!
Jiang Muye felt strength surge through his whole body, and he valiantly picked up the mallet.
The onlookers weren't optimistic. They thought even Jiang Muye's stance was wrong, and that he'd probably give up after a few strikes.
The pastry shop owner joked and tried to persuade him, "Xiao Ye, forget it, don't hurt your back!"
"It's fine, my back's great." When Jiang Muye said this, he deliberately let his gaze drift over to Leng Ruoli.
Leng Ruoli's face turned peach-red, and she didn't quite dare to look at Jiang Muye anymore.
How could she not know there was a hidden meaning in his words?
Especially in front of everyone, such an obvious hint.
This person was so shameless.
But… heh heh, she loved it.
"Thump, thump, thump—"
A powerful, rhythmic sound rang out.
Everyone stared at Jiang Muye in astonishment.
His sleeves were rolled up to his arms. With every strike, his sexy, sculpted lines were on display, his muscles swelling, incredibly powerful. His sinewy build was just too fine.
Especially when pounding the glutinous rice—fierce and forceful.
How was he a weakling?
He was simply badass!
Those who had been waiting to laugh were now staring with wide eyes.
A burly man had started pounding the rice and was panting heavily after just ten strikes.
But Jiang Muye looked like nothing was happening at all.
Jiang Muye's strikes grew stronger one after another.
The mallet didn't waver in the slightest, landing steadily and precisely.
After all, Jiang Muye was a sure hand at hitting the hole—practice made perfect.
Pounding glutinous rice was nothing. It was just too easy!
The pastry shop owner was stunned. Jiang Muye wasn't showing off at all.
Jiang Muye's expression didn't even change. He looked like he wasn't tired in the least, as if pounding glutinous rice was nothing to him at all.
Jiang Muye pounded seventy or eighty times in a row without a single heavy breath.
This astonishing explosive power was incredibly formidable.
Especially since even the pastry shop owner's son felt ashamed in comparison.
He'd been pounding glutinous rice for four or five years, and he actually couldn't compare to this young man?
Jiang Muye hadn't been at it long before the glutinous rice was done. He smiled and said to the pastry shop owner, "Uncle, it's done."
"That fast?" The pastry shop owner was stunned.
This was truly lightning speed—done in no time at all.
And especially with Jiang Muye doing it on his own—who could tell Jiang Muye was a newbie!
"I'd never done it before, so it took a bit of time. Otherwise it could've been even faster," Jiang Muye said honestly.
At this, the others shook their heads.
Look at this—was that even human speech!
He was already this amazing! And he still said he could be faster—if he were faster, he'd practically be faster than light!
"Alright, Uncle, we'll be going. We've got things to do." After finishing the pounding, Jiang Muye got ready to retreat.
However, the villagers were especially eager to keep Jiang Muye there. "Xiao Ye, you finally come back once, and you're leaving so soon. Stay and have a meal!"
"That's right, chat with your uncles and aunties for a while. We can make whatever you want to eat."
"Take some more things with you. How can you just leave like this?"
Jiang Muye looked at these warm-hearted villagers and felt flattered. "Really, there's no need."
He and Leng Ruoli exchanged a glance, and he instinctively headed outside. "That's really plenty."
"Alright, then off you go." The villagers were a bit reluctant to let Jiang Muye go.
There was nothing to be done. Jiang Muye wanted to leave now—they couldn't exactly block him from going.
So Jiang Muye and Leng Ruoli left under everyone's reluctant gazes.
Leng Ruoli sighed. "They're so warm-hearted. They gave us so many gifts."
"There was nothing to be done, I'm just too popular," Jiang Muye replied with a chuckle.
"More than that—your luck with the ladies is good too." As soon as Leng Ruoli said it, Jiang Muye's smile grew even wider. "I smell a really strong scent of vinegar. Are you jealous?"
Leng Ruoli's little face turned crimson. "As your girlfriend, it'd be fake if I weren't jealous, right?"
"Good, I like it when you're jealous. Being jealous proves you care about me." What guy didn't like his girlfriend being jealous? They just didn't like it when she made a fuss over nothing.
An occasional little bit of jealousy could still strengthen a relationship.
Especially since Leng Ruoli was so cute when she was jealous.
Leng Ruoli's ears grew hot from what he said. "Then it can't always be me getting jealous…"
"You want me to get jealous over you?" Jiang Muye raised an eyebrow. "I'm the Little Vinegar King of Asia. Once I start being jealous, there's no stopping it. I'd torment you, pester you, and pay back every grievance—repay you for making me jealous."
"It's not like I'm the one who made you jealous. Why are you coming after me for revenge?" Leng Ruoli glanced at Jiang Muye, but the smile at the corner of her mouth wouldn't stop.
"Who told you to be so charming, creating so many rivals for me. To deal with rivals, I have to start with you—like planting more strawberries on your neck, or kissing and hugging you more, so those rivals know to back off."
Jiang Muye's playful teasing made Leng Ruoli's eyes sparkle, very gently:
"I've got this move down. From now on I'll learn it and put it to flexible use."
"Now you've gone and learned bad things, trying to steal my tricks?" Jiang Muye leaned his face down, instinctively about to kiss Leng Ruoli.
Leng Ruoli nimbly dodged, quick as a hare. "Then I definitely have to be a bit bad, otherwise how could I ever handle you?"
Jiang Muye was brimming with laughter. "Good one, you actually used Flash! But you're welcome to be as bad as you like, heh heh, I can take it—good back, good legs, good body!"
I finally fell for someone once, and you let me lose so completely. Babe, give me the three-combo of urging updates, comments, and gifts, and let me love again!
