Chapter 391: This Pursuit Technique Is Too Extravagant

Rejected 99 Times, the Aloof Campus Belle Comes On Strong

Boss Cutie

Jiang Muye watched his three brothers winking and nudging at him, and rolled his eyes. "Leng Ruoli gave it."

"From the Cold Campus Belle? That's a real show of generosity. She still hasn't given up chasing you?" Little White Dove was laying it on thick.

Originally, he'd assumed Leng Ruoli was just toying with Jiang Muye and had completely disapproved of the match. He'd even thought that with Jiang Muye's attitude being so poor, it wouldn't be long before Leng Ruoli gave up.

Who would've thought she'd still be pursuing him now?

"Seven or eight days straight, chasing you with all sorts of tricks. First she had people deliver water cooler jugs for us, then she lined up in the middle of the night to buy soup dumplings for you to eat, and then she went on the broadcast to recite poetry for you…" Kai was exhausted from expressing his envy.

Old He nodded vigorously. "Muzi, I think the Cold Campus Belle really is serious about you. Is there actually some hidden reason behind all this? I saw Mi Lu and Xia Xiran have gone over to her side too, and they're even helping her deliver gifts."

Ripples rose in the depths of Jiang Muye's eyes.

His heart was in a mess right now, and he had some indescribable feelings.

Could there really be a hidden reason behind it all?

Then why wouldn't Leng Ruoli say anything?

After Jiang Muye sat down, he noticed a game notification on his phone.

When he tapped it open, he realized that multiple of his online games had been filled with skins.

The newest skins that had just come out had been directly gifted to him.

It was obvious that this person was Leng Ruoli.

He'd clearly already blocked her account, but she'd somehow gotten a burner account to secretly add him, and was now gifting him full skins and equipment.

Watching Jiang Muye's inventory full of high-tier equipment, Little White Dove took one glance and was dying of envy.

"That's amazing, isn't this just going to heaven!" Little White Dove was dying of envy and egged Jiang Muye on. "Let me play on it for a few days, come on?"

"Sure, go play." After handing the computer over to Little White Dove, Jiang Muye went out onto the balcony.

He rested both hands on the railing.

"Hey~" A cheerful, light voice sounded out.

Jiang Muye's brow arched as he checked the time on his phone.

Not bad. It had connected in a second.

The corners of his lips held a sweetness he couldn't suppress. "The skins and equipment were from you, right? That's your burner account, isn't it?"

But Leng Ruoli played dumb. "Huh? What are you saying? Are you planning to play games with me?"

Jiang Muye laughed in exasperation. "Leng Ruoli, I'm asking you—is 'Husband-Pampering No.1' you?"

When he said the game nickname, his ears turned red with embarrassment.

"You found me out. Pampering you is only right." Leng Ruoli's gentle voice sounded from the other end of the phone.

"I'm not your husband!" Jiang Muye shouted at the top of his lungs.

"It's only a matter of time~ It's absolutely set in stone."

Yo ho.

She was really thick-skinned!

Jiang Muye thought to himself, but the expression on his face was clearing up.

"How much was it? I'll pay you back."

"No need~ I gave it to you of my own free will, and I actually feel like I didn't give enough. What are you even playing? Whatever skins you're missing, I'll send you more."

"It's not about the skins," Jiang Muye said weakly. "Send me the account."

If he was still playing Onmyoji, was she going to do his gacha rolls for him too?

But Leng Ruoli just played dumb. "Hello hello hello, my signal's bad, I'm hanging up first."

The phone really did get hung up.

"She actually dares to hang up on me, her guts are really something!" Jiang Muye glanced at the phone that had already been hung up on. Despite his grumbling, his mood had clearly improved quite a bit.

He turned and went back into the dorm room, then made an announcement. "Tonight's New Year's Eve, where are we eating? My treat!"

His roommates, who had been playing games, let out a cheer. "Whoa, Muzi, you're the yyds! So generous!"

So that evening, Jiang Muye took his roommates and their girlfriends to a rather distinctive local Chinese restaurant.

【Ding—Congratulations, Host, on a successful restaurant Check-in. You have obtained twenty points of luck.】 The System began its notification.

The System had finally piped up. Otherwise, Jiang Muye would've thought it had been uninstalled.

Still, having the System was better than not having it. At least with the System's help, he could now walk toward the peak of his life.

The group sat close together, all lovey-dovey.

It was either one feeding the other a bite, or the two of them snuggling together for photos, or looking at their phones together.

Jiang Muye looked at the paired-up couples and said sourly, "Do you have to be like this? Who are you feeding dog food to on New Year's Eve?!"

"To you, of course, you single dog." Suya laughed.

Then Little White Dove poked Suya.

Suya also realized she'd said the wrong thing. After all, Jiang Muye had just ended his last failed relationship—it was bad timing.

It was Kai who cleverly raised his glass and said to Jiang Muye, "Cheers! The first wish of the new year is for you to get off the single market! Hurry up and join our dog-food-sprinkling army!"

Little White Dove nodded carelessly. "Right right, hurry up and get off the single market~! A guy with Muzi's qualifications has girls lining up for him! I bet you'll be off the single market by twelve tonight!"

Old He nodded. "Yeah, there's definitely a good girl waiting for you! Muzi, just patiently wait for a girl to throw herself into your arms!"

Their girlfriends also offered their blessings one after another.

Jiang Muye felt great and shouted loudly, "I'll take your good words!"

That night, the meal was very enjoyable, and plenty of alcohol was naturally drunk as well.

But Jiang Muye was only slightly tipsy.

He squinted at the sweet couples one after another, then looked at his own solitary figure, and subconsciously glanced at the empty seat beside him.

His heart felt a bit lonely.

There was a kind of loneliness that friends couldn't fill.

But whatever. Tonight had wine, so tonight he'd get drunk.

Jiang Muye grabbed a bottle and poured a mouthful into his mouth.

Of course, they wouldn't head back so early on New Year's Eve, so Jiang Muye and his several drunken roommates walked back with their arms slung over each other's shoulders, while their girlfriends sat in the back chatting happily.

"Long live the great motherland!" Little White Dove shouted with high spirits.

Jiang Muye poured a mouthful of beer into his mouth and declared, "Long live being single!"

Kai corrected him. "No—long live getting off the single market!"

Jiang Muye's spirits were roused too, and he cried out, "That's right, to hell with single dogs, I'm getting off the single market!"

His eyes were warm, filled with hope for the future.

The group walked onto the plaza. After all, this was the best spot for New Year's Eve. Quite a few people had already gathered, most of them there as families. It was very lively.

【Congratulations, Host, on a successful plaza Check-in. You have obtained fifty points of luck.】

It had just given twenty points of luck, and now it was giving fifty more?

But where was his good luck? Why hadn't it come yet?

Jiang Muye questioned the System. System, the luck points you've been awarding me are completely useless! You're just toying with my feelings!

But the System answered mysteriously. Whether I'm toying with your feelings, you'll find out in a moment!

Jiang Muye's brows knitted tightly.

Why did he feel like the System's words had a hidden meaning? What exactly was this flirty System hiding from him?
