Chapter 41: You'd Better Do Me Proud and Win Jiang Muye Over

Chapter 41: You Have to Fight for It, You Have to Win Jiang Muye Over

99 Proposals Rejected, the Aloof Campus Belle Comes On Strong

Boss Cutie

"I just saw her," Jiang Muye replied curtly.

"You didn't turn down her lunchbox, did you? She's a total dummy. She went to bring you food again today, and we couldn't stop her no matter what. She's completely stubborn—she just has to cook for you." Yuanyuan sighed.

"She signed up for a cooking class for your sake. Even when she's exhausted from studying, she still stays up late practicing cooking. Every single time, she swallows her pride and goes to the cafeteria to borrow the kitchen so she can cook for you. She's a beginner—her hands are covered in blisters from getting burned while learning, they're all marked up with cuts. It breaks our hearts just looking at them."

Jiang Muye was rather surprised.

He truly had no idea there was so much going on behind the scenes.

That was true—how could Xia Xiran, a pampered girl, possibly know how to cook?

But Jiang Muye had never imagined she'd learn from scratch just for him, and that it would be so difficult. To get this good in such a short time, she must have poured in no small amount of effort and time.

Yuanyuan took a deep breath. "You have no idea how heartbroken she was after you rejected her at noon—she cried so much her eyes were swollen. She even skipped class all afternoon because of it! You know she never skips class. We all thought she was going to give up, but then she pulled herself together again. After crying, she acted like nothing happened and went right back to cooking for you."

"I'm not saying this to guilt-trip you into being with her. I just want you to know how much she cares about you. For the sake of the food, can't you at least not reject the meals she gives you?"

Jiang Muye's thin lips pressed tightly together, and he even said in a low voice, "I'll keep that in mind."

Hearing Jiang Muye's cool tone, Yuanyuan felt somewhat disappointed.

She'd made the WeChat call for nothing. You can't carve a rotten piece of wood.

Just as Yuanyuan was about to hang up, the voice on the other end spoke again.

"Tell her thank you for me."

The words were spoken lightly, and before Yuanyuan could even react, the WeChat call had ended.

Yuanyuan was astonished.

Then she grew excited. She had clearly misjudged Jiang Muye.

How was this rotten wood!

This was an iron tree!

An iron tree had bloomed!

Just then, Xia Xiran came back, and Yuanyuan immediately said to her excitedly, "Xiran, do you know what Jiang Muye just asked me to tell you!"

Xia Xiran looked at Yuanyuan full of anticipation. "What?"

"He said thank you!"

Hearing that, Xia Xiran's face went red.

Although she hadn't heard it from Jiang Muye's own mouth, she was already bubbling with joy, and could completely picture the scene of Jiang Muye saying it.

Tears welled up in Xia Xiran's eyes as she hugged her sisters and spun them around happily.

The Girl with Glasses said, "I used to think Xiran should give up—Jiang Muye was just so hard-hearted. But now I think Xiran absolutely shouldn't give up! Jiang Muye is worth Xiran's affection, and I apologize for misjudging him."

Yuanyuan nodded. "Xiran, you have to fight for it, you have to win Jiang Muye over. Jiang Muye really isn't as petty as those other guys. I think if you put in a little more effort, you'll break through that firewall of his."

Xia Xiran clenched her little fists and cheered herself on. "Alright, I'm definitely going to win him over. No matter what, I won't give up."

"Come on, come on, let's celebrate tonight—celebrate Xiran's efforts paying off! Let's go eat Haidilao!" the Girl with Glasses suggested.

Xia Xiran added, "My treat, you guys eat as much as you want!"

"Wow, it's been so long since we've had it. Xiran, I love you so much!" Yuanyuan and Xiao Miao cheered.

At that moment, in the boys' dormitory, Jiang Muye had no way of knowing that a single sentence of his had caused such a stir in the girls' dormitory. He was currently buried in eating his lunchbox.

What kind of person would hold a grudge against good food? That would be a waste of heaven's gifts.

Besides, he really was quite hungry.

Setting aside the grudges between the two of them—in all fairness, Xia Xiran's cooking was pretty good. Why would he waste it?

Having eaten his fill and drunk his share, Jiang Muye felt absolutely stuffed.

Now that he was done eating, if he didn't exercise a bit, he was going to put on weight.

Jiang Muye decided to go to the sports field and play ball for a while. It had been a long time since he'd played basketball, and it was a good chance to stretch his body.

So Jiang Muye grabbed his basketball and cajoled Little White Dove and the others into going to play.

【Congratulations, Host, Check-in at the basketball court successful. You have been awarded five hundred thousand rmb, and your stamina value has increased by twentyfold, popularity buff twenty points.】

Basketball was Jiang Muye's favorite sport. Combined with his tall height, the dunking that was so difficult for other guys was effortless for Jiang Muye.

Jiang Muye could casually sink the ball into the hoop.

Little White Dove was full of resentment. "What kind of feed did you eat when you were a kid, how did you get so tall? You being here right now is completely just us getting bullied."

Jiang Muye just raised his head and laughed, then provocatively sank another shot.

Jiang Muye and his roommates were having an especially good time when a clear, ringing shout suddenly rang out: "Stop right there—"

Jiang Muye looked puzzled.

He turned to look, and soon spotted a curly-haired beauty in seven-centimeter high heels walking over from beneath the lights not far away.

Her upper body wore a shirt with several buttons left open, her figure sizzling, a plunging neckline showing off her fine assets. Below she wore a pencil skirt, her peach-shaped rear especially prominent, and her long legs in nude stockings were especially eye-catching as she hurried toward Jiang Muye.

And she completely didn't care whether they were in the middle of a game—she just cut straight across the court and came for him.

That angry pout on her face made Jiang Muye blink.

Everyone else was frozen stiff by the beauty's aura, all thinking she'd come to start trouble.

Who would have thought she'd throw herself straight into Jiang Muye's arms.

Jiang Muye was stupefied.

He just felt two very soft things sticking to him, rolling around against him, and that wasn't all—her slender arms were also wrapped tightly around Jiang Muye's narrow, solid waist.

And so it wasn't just Jiang Muye who was shocked, but the whole group at the scene.

God.

The sexy, fiery super beauty in front of them was actually one of the school's Four Great Campus Belles! Mi Lu!

Everyone knew Mi Lu was incredibly sexy, a famous model, an absolute heartthrob.

Countless men wished she'd throw herself at them, but Mi Lu was sexy without being promiscuous, and had never looked favorably upon any man.

Much less openly hugging a guy like this!

Jiang Muye had never imagined the other party would come throw herself at him either, and was instantly dumbfounded.

"Big Sis, could you let go of me now?" He wanted to pull her off, but she stuck tighter than superglue.

Her eyes held a wounded look, and she pouted. "You tricked me so badly that night, and then just up and walked away—you heartbreaker!"

As a result, Little White Dove, Old He, and Kai all stared at Jiang Muye in unison.

Their eyes seemed to say: Come clean, just what are you hiding?

Jiang Muye now couldn't wash himself clean even if he jumped into the Yellow River. What on earth was she saying that was so easy to misunderstand!

Jiang Muye hurriedly explained, "I didn't do anything! There's nothing going on between her and me."

He directly pulled Mi Lu off him.

But Mi Lu looked at Jiang Muye reluctantly, and even lightly tapped Jiang Muye's back with her fingertip. "Why haven't you contacted me, did you forget my phone number?"

Jiang Muye got goosebumps from her actions.

He wanted to get far away from Mi Lu, but Mi Lu stepped closer on her high heels, her beautiful eyes unable to bear leaving Jiang Muye.

Jiang Muye had never imagined Mi Lu would be so persistent, even digging up old scores.

That day, it wasn't that he'd forgotten—he simply hadn't wanted to add her.

"We don't seem to have any reason to keep in contact, do we." Jiang Muye glanced at Mi Lu.

The legendary sexy Campus Belle was a bit too forward, wasn't she, getting handsy the moment she arrived.

Every man understood—Mi Lu's figure really was great, it was hard to hold back.

If Jiang Muye didn't have his willpower, if his self-control weren't good, he'd probably have pinned Mi Lu down by now.

But Jiang Muye was a man of principles. He wasn't such a casual person—getting involved with a girl just because he was blinded by lust, wouldn't that make him a beast!

In that regard, Jiang Muye preferred to do it with a girl he liked, that was what felt right.
