Chapter 470: I'll Be Your Wingman

# Rejected 99 Times, the Aloof Campus Belle Comes On Strong

## Boss Cutie

"I'll be your wingman, then."

"No. You'll be my strategist." Leng Ruoli's eyes blinked.

"Speaking of strategists, I've got another idea." Jiang Muye crooked a finger at Leng Ruoli. She leaned in, and felt warm words fall past her ear.

Leng Ruoli's eyes were shining. She grew excited, a smile spilling across her face. "Great! Then I'll give it a try!"

And so, the next day, Leng Ruoli ran to Xiang Shan's office.

"Mom, Muye wants to apologize to you. He sent you a gift." Leng Ruoli spoke with great enthusiasm, already lugging in a big bag of stuff.

"What?" Xiang Shan was in the middle of work. When she heard there was a gift, she was quite curious.

Leng Ruoli opened the bag and announced happily, "Ta-da—see? This is the gift he got you. Do you like it?"

"Urgh, what's that smell!" Xiang Shan immediately covered her nose.

Inside the box were none other than stinky mandarin fish, stinky tofu, frozen Luosifen, garlic-mixed durian, even a can of surströmming.

The moment the smell came out, Leng Ruoli nearly threw up.

But she'd sacrificed a lot for this. She wouldn't give up until she reached her goal, so she could only hold her breath and endure the nauseating stench.

"Last time you weren't satisfied with his cooking, so he started researching cuisine. He heard you really like stinky food, so he made all these specially for you." Leng Ruoli smiled at Xiang Shan.

Xiang Shan simply couldn't take it anymore. She was so disgusted she wanted to puke.

"Move that away from me—urgh, what is that smell!" Xiang Shan was about to suffocate. She wanted to flee the scene.

"Mom, this is Muye's heartfelt gesture, after all. Just try a bite before you say anything. Muye loves eating this stuff. I don't even mind, so if you like it, you've got to have the same taste as him."

Leng Ruoli endured the stench and kept bringing the stuff closer, and Xiang Shan was about to explode.

She was on pins and needles. Instinctively, she pinched her nose and ran around the long way out.

Leng Ruoli watched her own mother unable to stand it, that look of utter disgust, and inwardly rejoiced.

Perfect. Now Mom's definitely got a terrible impression of Jiang Muye.

"Still, it really is too stinky." Leng Ruoli fanned herself with her hand and hurriedly tossed the stuff outside.

Then Leng Ruoli reported the good news to Jiang Muye.

Leng Ruoli: 【My mom got smoked out by me. She'll probably have an impression of you now, but she shouldn't have any more unnecessary thoughts about you.】

Jiang Muye: 【That's great, then. You've lost a love rival.】

Leng Ruoli: 【Hmph. You arsonist of hearts, it's all your fault for oozing charm. Now even my mom likes you. I'm so helpless.】

Jiang Muye: 【Ah, I can't help it either. I don't want it this way. Then wait till you get back, and I'll make it up to you properly.】

Leng Ruoli smiled: 【Alright, then I'm coming back right now. I'm about to be knocked out by the stench. You'd better make me something good to eat.】

Jiang Muye: 【Waiting for you to come back.】

Just as Leng Ruoli was about to head out, she ran into Xiang Shan coming back.

Leng Ruoli put on a worried face and went up to ask, "Mom, are you okay? Feeling any better?"

"Much better. The air outside is fresher, after all," Xiang Shan replied.

"Mom, I'm really sorry. Muye didn't know you can't stand stinky smells, or that you can't eat stinky things. You won't be angry at him, will you?" Leng Ruoli deliberately stressed it; all she wanted was to make her mom's impression of Jiang Muye a little worse.

A mom who hated stinky stuff like hers could never end up with a man like Jiang Muye who loved eating stinky things.

While Leng Ruoli was gloating, Xiang Shan's words toppled her entire worldview.

"I'm not angry at him. In fact, I should thank him."

Hearing her words, Leng Ruoli was shocked. "Mom, why would you thank him? Don't you hate eating stinky things the most?"

"I do hate eating stinky things, but taste can change. Besides, he gave me inspiration, didn't he? Stinky outside, fragrant inside—isn't that exactly our studio's mission? Make people who don't like it fall in love in an instant, so they can't quit it. It's a fantastic theme!"

At this, Xiang Shan grew a little excited. "These past days the studio's been agonizing over this theme, and now it's settled all at once. Tell Jiang Muye that I want to have dinner with him tonight too."

"Huh? Tonight?" Leng Ruoli was shocked.

"Is that a problem?" Xiang Shan stared at Leng Ruoli. "You won't make the date? Then I will."

"No… Then I'll do it." Leng Ruoli was hardly willing to let her mom and Jiang Muye have too much contact. She hurriedly shook her head.

Xiang Shan curled her lip. "Don't stand me up. Otherwise, I'll know wherever you two are."

Seeing the determined look in her mom's eyes, Leng Ruoli knew she really had that ability.

Oh no. Things seemed to have gotten complicated.

She'd clearly set this whole thing up to make Mom hate Jiang Muye. How had she ended up liking him even more?

Leng Ruoli went off to the side, pulled a sour face, and called Jiang Muye. Gloomily, she said, "What do we do? My mom isn't angry. Her impression of you didn't get worse—instead she wants to meet up with you."

Hearing Leng Ruoli's words, Jiang Muye was shocked. "No way? Doesn't she hate eating stinky things the most?"

"So I thought, but she got new inspiration out of it because of this." Leng Ruoli spoke glumly. "You've even done meritorious service."

Jiang Muye: "…"

This problem was way too tricky.

He and Leng Ruoli had already thought up several methods. How could none of them make Xiang Shan change her mind?

While Jiang Muye was nursing a headache, Leng Ruoli sighed. "Tonight we have to have dinner with her. We can't stand her up, or it'll get even more serious. My mom can do anything."

"You're okay on your end, right? Any difficulties?" The person Jiang Muye was worried about now was Leng Ruoli.

"I'm fine, just thinking about how to deal with my mom," Leng Ruoli muttered. "When you go to the date today, you have to wear dirty clothes, put on darker foundation, make your hair a little greasy. Absolutely cannot be clean and neat. You have to make my mom think you're sloppy."

Jiang Muye replied: "That's way too hard. There's no way to hide my good looks."

"Don't care. Anyway, we can't let my mom's favorability toward you deepen right now. Wait for me to get back. Tonight we're going into battle!" Leng Ruoli clenched her little fist.

While Jiang Muye waited in the villa, Leng Ruoli hurriedly returned.

She was lugging a suitcase in her hand. When she saw Jiang Muye, she said anxiously, "Come on, I'll do your makeup."

Jiang Muye obediently sat on the stool.

Leng Ruoli began applying toner and lotion to Jiang Muye.

Jiang Muye was a bit unused to the texture of toner and lotion. He didn't really use these skincare products, but his skin was quite good, and even bare-faced he had hardly any pores.

Especially when Leng Ruoli's small hands patted his face, he felt gloomy. "Right now I feel like a lump of dough."

"Very pinchable." Leng Ruoli gazed at Jiang Muye, a smile in her eyes, then sighed. "Did you go behind my back and get some photon skin rejuvenation, or go to a beauty salon for some Project A? Otherwise, how could your skin be this good?"

"Heaven and Earth as my witness, I'm with you every day. Where would I find so much time to do these things?" Jiang Muye replied.

Leng Ruoli was even more surprised. "Then your skin is way too good. I'm so jealous."

"Pat a little lighter. I feel like you're settling personal scores." Jiang Muye glanced sidelong at Leng Ruoli, watching her palm pat his face. Her hand was quite heavy.

Leng Ruoli pouted. "This way the essence can sink in. And we still need primer."

Leng Ruoli began controlling her strength. After continuing to pat the essence into Jiang Muye's skin, she applied primer, and after the primer came the foundation.

"Hm? You've got to be kidding." Jiang Muye stared in alarm at the foundation in Leng Ruoli's palm. "This shade is way too dark!"

"It has to be darker. I have to cover up your looks." Leng Ruoli's eyes blazed. "Who told you to be so handsome."

"But this is an African's shade…" Jiang Muye felt there was no difference between this and Lord Bao.

"Just endure it for a bit. Anyway, you're so handsome, you can take it. Other people can't compare to you." Leng Ruoli smiled and praised Jiang Muye.

Hearing Leng Ruoli's words, Jiang Muye went all floaty. "Alright, I'll listen to you."

Jiang Muye let Leng Ruoli do as she pleased with him. Actually, even before the foundation went on, Jiang Muye knew the effect would definitely be hilarious.

But he never imagined that before Leng Ruoli had even spread the foundation evenly, she was already laughing so hard she could barely breathe.

"You're still laughing!" Jiang Muye was exasperated. He reached out to tickle her.

Leng Ruoli's sexy body curled up, and she began begging for mercy. "I was wrong, wrong, I won't laugh, hahaha, but I can't help it, you're so cute."

"Cute? I look hilarious, don't I!" Jiang Muye didn't stop, insistently going after Leng Ruoli.

She was so tormented by him that tears welled in her eyes. She rested her little face on Jiang Muye's shoulder and whimpered, "I really can't take it, wuwu."
