Chapter 376: Mi Lu Returns

Rejected 99 Times, the Aloof Campus Belle Comes On Strong

Boss Cutie

"No need." Jiang Muye thought of Leng Ruoli, and his heart ached.

He said he wanted to forget her, but the moment he thought of her, fuck, he still loved her.

Jiang Muye didn't want to debase himself either, but the hardest thing to quit in this world was, fuck, still liking her!

"Alright then. If there's some misunderstanding between you two, just talk it out. I know couples fight, that's unavoidable, but splitting up over it isn't good." Xia Xiran's watery eyes gazed at him. "I don't want you to regret this."

Xia Xiran had been burned once before. She knew how unbearable it was to miss out on someone.

She had missed out, she had regretted, and what she couldn't have, she let go.

But that had been one-sided on her part.

Jiang Muye and Leng Ruoli were on the foundation of mutual love, and she really didn't want to see a guy who loved Leng Ruoli so deeply getting hurt.

Jiang Muye heard Xia Xiran's comfort, but not even a trace of it made him feel better. Instead, he felt a sour swelling in his chest. "For now, I want to set my feelings aside and focus all my attention on work."

He knew better than anyone how much he loved Leng Ruoli, and how much he didn't want to be apart from her.

But that dog Yu Xi had shown up again.

He had no way of knowing what was wrong with Leng Ruoli, how she'd gotten so bewitched as to get mixed up with that dog Yu Xi.

Xia Xiran was astonished.

Looking at Jiang Muye's stubborn expression now, she understood that something major must have happened between Jiang Muye and Leng Ruoli. Otherwise, how could Jiang Muye be like this?

"Regardless, I hope you're happy." Knowing Jiang Muye was in a fit of anger right now, Xia Xiran didn't say much more to comfort him, but in her heart she was already planning how to get Jiang Muye and Leng Ruoli back together as soon as possible.

After Jiang Muye had the hotel staff bring two sets of clean clothes, he and Xia Xiran each changed.

After leaving the hotel, the System reminded him: 【Congratulations, Host. The check-in at the hotel has ended. You have obtained one thousand Grit Points.】

Only then did Jiang Muye remember that he still had a System.

He was done with feelings. Anyway, with the System leading him to the peak of life.

Once his career was set, love wouldn't be far behind. Why should he hang himself from one tree?

Instead, he would make Leng Ruoli regret her fickleness, her change of heart.

He was going to live his life even more brilliantly, until Leng Ruoli couldn't reach him.

Jiang Muye dropped Xia Xiran off at school.

Just as they got out of the car, Jiang Muye said to Xia Xiran, "I'll go park the car. You head back to the dorm yourself."

"Okay." Xia Xiran nodded without thinking much and subconsciously started toward the dormitory building. It was then that Jiang Muye, looking at the car's front and rear mirrors, caught sight of a familiar girl approaching.

Jiang Muye's eyes went cold.

He swiftly pushed open the car door.

"Xiran," Jiang Muye called out intentionally, warmly.

While Xia Xiran was still somewhat bewildered, Jiang Muye grabbed her by the wrist.

He noticed the girl's astonished gaze.

Jiang Muye, feeling a bit of a vengeful streak, smiled at Xia Xiran. "Are you hungry? Let's go to the cafeteria to eat."

Xia Xiran was utterly confused. "Eat? Eat what? Didn't we just eat at the hotel?"

"I get hungry fast," Jiang Muye said.

He pulled Xia Xiran along. Xia Xiran glanced to the side and discovered the girl frozen there, and suddenly understood Jiang Muye's intention.

So he was just using her to provoke Leng Ruoli.

Leng Ruoli's little face was deathly pale, and her heart ached with a piercing pain, as if it were about to tear apart.

From Jiang Muye's few words, she was completely certain that Jiang Muye and Xia Xiran had booked a room together.

The two of them had rekindled their old flame.

He didn't want her anymore.

He had gone back to Xia Xiran, his White Moonlight.

And she had become his mosquito blood, discarded.

She lowered her eyes. With a flick of her eyelashes, crystal-clear tears streamed down.

It wasn't just Leng Ruoli who felt awful. Even Jiang Muye's heart felt stifled.

He forcibly suppressed the churning pain in his heart and moved forward with a cold face.

Once they were far away, Jiang Muye let go of Xia Xiran's hand.

He said apologetically, "I'm sorry, I used you. I'm too despicable. I'll transfer you money as compensation."

"No." Xia Xiran refused without a second thought. "Actually, I don't mind. I just… think there's no need for that, is there?"

She said honestly, "You two fought, but the way you're acting, isn't it just saying you still care about her? This will only push her further away. She looked like she misunderstood us. I'll go explain."

As Xia Xiran turned to go back, Jiang Muye grabbed her wrist.

Jiang Muye said firmly, "No need. She and I can't go back, and there's no need to explain."

He said with deep meaning, "The person she loves isn't me."

"How can that be! She loved you so much before, everyone saw it." Xia Xiran didn't believe it.

As a witness, she was very clear on how steadfast Jiang Muye and Leng Ruoli's love was.

She had seen exactly how Leng Ruoli had pursued Jiang Muye.

Regarding how deeply she loved Jiang Muye, Xia Xiran conceded defeat to Leng Ruoli.

"You said it yourself, that was before." Jiang Muye smiled sardonically. "Maybe time changed her feelings."

That's why she had a change of heart.

He couldn't blame her. Maybe from the very beginning she had made it clear.

What she loved was just his face.

That Yu Xi looked identical to him. Yu Xi was better at sweet talk than him, full of tricks, smooth-tongued. It was normal for a girl to be charmed.

Everyone liked novelty anyway, and being unable to resist temptation was understandable.

But Jiang Muye had never imagined this day would come so soon.

Xia Xiran still couldn't bring herself to believe it.

She just felt that between Jiang Muye and Leng Ruoli there was only some unspoken little conflict.

At this moment, Leng Ruoli returned to her dorm in a daze.

But she heard a clattering commotion inside.

Leng Ruoli pushed the door open and saw a slender young woman leaning against the wall, taking off her high heels.

She wore a pink rhinestone bodycon dress, her slender waist small enough to be held in one hand, graceful and alluring. Hearing the door open, she turned back, a single smile bringing forth a hundred charms.

"You're here?" A bright laugh rang out.

Leng Ruoli's eyes went wide.

She rubbed her eyes in disbelief.

She couldn't believe what she was seeing!

"Sister… Sister Mi Lu?" Leng Ruoli's breath caught.

"Yes, it's me. I've only been gone two or three months. Could you have forgotten me already?" Mi Lu curled the corner of her mouth and even spread her arms open toward Leng Ruoli.

"Sister Mi Lu, why didn't you say you were coming!" Like in a dream, Leng Ruoli rushed up and hugged Mi Lu tightly.

Mi Lu's soft, fragrant body comforted Leng Ruoli.

Especially since Mi Lu had always been like a big sister to her, her voice gentle and smooth, her body fragrant. Leng Ruoli had suffered grievances out there, and now, catching Mi Lu's scent, she was moved to tears.

"You didn't ask either." Mi Lu smiled, resting her head on Leng Ruoli's shoulder. "I came back to the country suddenly this time just to give you a surprise. After all, we haven't gotten together in so long, and New Year's is almost here. Whenever I've missed a New Year's, I have to spend it with my baby forever and ever!"
