Chapter 501: A Shotgun Wedding

Rejected 99 Times, the Aloof Campus Belle Comes On Strong

Boss Cutie

Suya refused to accept it. "Impossible. My luck is great. I already have a fiancé, and after that I'm getting married."

"Leng Ruoli, you're actually quite jealous of me, aren't you? I heard your mom's side isn't too happy about you and Jiang Muye. At least I'm getting a marriage both sets of parents approve of. What about you? I'm afraid you'll have to marry him pregnant, with your family unable to give their blessing."

Suya had always been jealous of Leng Ruoli. Now that they'd torn off all pretense, and she'd been hit by Leng Ruoli on top of it, she held a bitter grudge.

"Even if I do marry him pregnant, that's my business. Why do you care?" Leng Ruoli stared at Suya with loathing. "Besides, do you think your own marriage will go smoothly?"

"What are you planning to do?" Suya's breathing turned ragged.

"So you know how to be afraid now. You were so cocky just a moment ago." Leng Ruoli glared at her in displeasure. "What I'll do, you'll find out soon enough."

Suya was deeply uneasy. She begged in a panic, "We're both girls, why do we have to tear each other apart? I was just running my mouth. I'm all bark and no bite, really."

"The Cold Campus Belle, you won't hold it against me, will you? If you want to marry Jiang Muye, I can help you think of a way."

"Chen Ge and I have no feelings left. It's impossible to guilt-trip me with morality."

When Suya blocked Leng Ruoli's path, Leng Ruoli didn't even think about it and shoved her aside.

Suya fell to the ground at once, her knees hitting the pavement, her palms scraping against a pebble. The skin broke and bled, and she grimaced in pain.

But she saw Leng Ruoli, like an Untouchable Flower, pay her no attention whatsoever and walk off.

Suya bit stubbornly on her red lips, a hint of fury in her eyes.

What she hated most was that arrogant look on Leng Ruoli's face.

A phony prude.

Always acting a cut above everyone else, as if she were so amazing.

Suya felt that in front of Leng Ruoli, she was like a maidservant who had to keep watching her expressions.

This imbalance twisted inside Suya, and she clenched her bleeding palm.

——

Inside the KTV.

Jiang Muye, Kai, Old He, and Little White Dove sat on the sofa.

"Here, have some fruit." Jiang Muye pushed the fruit platter in front of Little White Dove. "Don't think about all that unhappy stuff."

"That's right, why give up an entire forest for one crooked tree? Look, there are plenty of pretty girls out there!" Old He began to urge him earnestly.

Even Kai spoke with heartfelt sincerity, "It's fine to have a breakup. Everyone goes through it. Look at how heartbroken Muzi was back then, and now he's got the Cold Campus Belle!"

Jiang Muye nodded. "Right, look at how well I'm living now. If anything, the one who comes later might be the one for you. Suya wasn't worth it at all. Breaking up with her was the most correct choice you could've made."

But Little White Dove leaned back on the sofa seat in melancholy. "I understand all that in my head, but I just can't help but feel heartbroken. She was my first love, the first girl I truly liked!"

His eyes slid toward Jiang Muye, and he said bitterly, "I'm not sure if I'll be that lucky in this life, to meet a Cold Campus Belle like Muzi did. If the next one's even worse than this one, I'll be miserable."

"Impossible. You're so well-liked. Everything you're going through now is so you can meet the best one later." Jiang Muye leaned in and rubbed Little White Dove's shoulder.

Old He nodded. "That's right. However long the night, the day will certainly come."

"Drink, drink. Right now this is the only way I can numb myself. Delude myself into a start, and love will come." Little White Dove forced himself to make the best of it, picking up a glass filled with liquor from the table and bringing it to his mouth.

The taste of Snow Beer churned back and forth in his stomach.

It was refreshing, but it was also hard to bear.

Especially since Little White Dove had just had his heart broken. Could the bitterness in his heart be vented just by drinking?

As he drank, Little White Dove stopped with the glass.

He lowered his eyelids, and slowly a tear fell from his eye.

"There's nothing Little White Dove is afraid of except getting cheated on. So why did Cupid have to fail me, letting the arrow of my love fly off course? Actually, I can understand Suya. Everyone wants to climb higher. Who doesn't want to find a rich husband?"

"But she could've just told me clearly."

"I'm not the kind of person who won't let go. What, am I, Little White Dove, so hung up on her that I can't live without her? Sure, I like her a lot, but I have a sense of proportion. Ever since I got together with her, I've barely even looked at other pretty girls."

"If she wants to check my phone, I let her check it. If she wants to log into my WeChat, go ahead. I don't delete anything. I know I'm well-behaved and I won't do wrong by her."

"If she feels insecure, I make up for it."

"But the heavens are partial. They let those Sea Kings live easy and happy, and don't even give us honest guys a chance to take over!"

Little White Dove roared it all out, grief and fury together.

Watching Little White Dove's misery, Jiang Muye didn't feel too good either.

Only because he'd been through it himself could he understand Little White Dove's feelings.

Back when he'd been rejected 99 times, he'd been in more pain than anyone.

He didn't understand why it was so easy for so many people to have a relationship, when for him it was a luxury.

Jiang Muye patted Little White Dove's shoulder. "Better a short pain than a long one. Compared to raising someone else's kid, just being cheated on is a lot better, isn't it?"

"You bastard, is that supposed to be comforting!" Little White Dove had been sunk in sorrow, but hearing Jiang Muye's words, he didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

"That's right, Muzi. If you're going to comfort him, do it like me. Congratulate Little White Dove on his happy bachelorhood, on entering the realm of no women in his heart and drawing his blade like a god. May the road ahead be smooth, and may he run into a pretty girl in a nurse's outfit and take her down on the spot!" Old He was laughing merrily.

"Hahaha, why a nurse's outfit? JK or office wear, or even a sailor suit would do!" Little White Dove glanced at Old He.

Old He glared at him. "I haven't even met one, and you're already hoping for more?"

"Are you comforting me right now? Why can't I have one! I'm not asking for everything, just what I should have!" Little White Dove cursed back carelessly. "Besides, don't you have Lu Jingjing? Just have her wear one."

"You're right, I do have a girlfriend."

"Get lost, you heartless bastard. Your brother's heartbroken and you're rubbing it in!"

Watching Little White Dove and Old He bicker, Jiang Muye's mood gradually brightened.

"This is the Little White Dove I know. Come on, cheers. In dreams you can have it all." Jiang Muye picked up his glass and clinked it against Little White Dove's.

Little White Dove laughed and cursed, "Bullshit. Believe it or not, I'll go find you guys a girl today!"

"Go on then, let's see what kind of girl you find!" Old He egged him on.

"Want to play Truth or Dare?" Kai suggested.
