Chapter 510: Mother-in-Law Launches an Offensive
Rejected 99 Times, the Aloof Campus Belle Comes On Strong
Boss Cutie
Jiang Muye was tempted again and ate another one to make sure. It was so sour it nearly made his teeth fall out, and he immediately spat the orange segment out of his mouth.
"It's still sour." Jiang Muye didn't dare try anymore.
"Then it must be that I'm the one who likes them." Leng Ruoli watched Jiang Muye's reaction and smiled faintly.
She gave Jiang Muye a glass of water to rinse his mouth, and only then did the sourness gradually fade.
After finishing one orange, Leng Ruoli took another and started eating it.
Jiang Muye was dumbfounded. She's a real hero.
However, Jiang Muye still made Leng Ruoli stop while she was ahead. After all, they were far too sour, and eating too many would make her heaty.
Leng Ruoli obediently listened and stopped eating.
"I'll call my mom now." Leng Ruoli reported to Jiang Muye.
"Alright, go ahead," Jiang Muye said.
Leng Ruoli quickly contacted Xiang Shan.
Xiang Shan was playing Honor of Kings and was just about to take down a tower when her phone rang.
She picked up immediately. "Hello? What's wrong, sweetie?"
"Mom, I don't want to attend the training class anymore. Going to class during the day and then to the art studio to draw at night is too tiring," Leng Ruoli said earnestly. "I've been feeling especially tired lately, and my appetite isn't good either. I want to rest a bit."
Xiang Shan was stunned. "Are you feeling unwell somewhere? Do you want to go to the hospital for a checkup?"
"No, I just want to sleep properly at home." Hearing her mother's concern, Leng Ruoli secretly gloated.
"That won't do. Come over to my place and I'll take care of you," Xiang Shan said to Leng Ruoli. "Jiang Muye is too young. Does he even know how to take care of a girl? Unreliable."
Because Leng Ruoli's phone was on speaker, Jiang Muye heard all of it.
Leng Ruoli felt very awkward. Just as she was about to speak up for Jiang Muye, he had already leaned in.
He bent down and said next to the phone, "Auntie."
That one "Auntie" nearly sent Xiang Shan to her grave.
"Call me Sister!" Xiang Shan still remembered that Jiang Muye had wronged her daughter, and she was still burning with anger.
She had no intention of letting her daughter continue dating Jiang Muye, but she knew her daughter was stubborn. If she directly played the villain and broke them up, it would absolutely trigger a rebellious reaction.
So she had put her mind to work elsewhere, all to reduce the time the two spent together, and to find an excuse to take her daughter away.
That way, Jiang Muye and Leng Ruoli's feelings would fade, and the harm would be reduced.
"Mother-in-Law." Jiang Muye selectively ignored her.
Xiang Shan was even more furious. She had no mood to play her game at all now.
Jiang Muye said to Xiang Shan, "I'm very good at taking care of girls. I know that when a girl has menstrual pain, she should drink Motherwort Pain-Relief Granules, and she can soak her feet to relieve the pain, or drink brown sugar ginger tea to drive out the cold.
"She likes to kick off her blanket, so I check on her every night and tuck her in promptly.
"She's a bit picky and doesn't like vegetables, so I make sure she gets balanced nutrition every day. At worst, we go eat Malatang to maintain her nutrition.
"With me, she gets colds at least five fewer times a year than before. She basically never gets a fever, and she doesn't go out drinking. With me, she doesn't stay up late and doesn't do chores. I'll help her with everything around the house, big and small."
When Jiang Muye's magnetic voice came through the phone, not only was Leng Ruoli moved, even Xiang Shan actually felt a bit of envy after hearing it.
As a powerful businesswoman who dominated the commercial world, wouldn't she want someone to tuck her in?
Wouldn't she want someone to accompany her to eat, even if it was just a street stall?
Wouldn't she want someone to supervise her health?
From Jiang Muye's words, Xiang Shan had an intuition: he loved her daughter very much.
Since he loved her, why cheat?
Originally this was an excellent candidate for a son-in-law, but now this one stain had appeared, and it was a fatal wound.
"Enough." Xiang Shan cut Jiang Muye off before he could continue. "That was the past. Now can't I even see my daughter? She's moving over to my place tomorrow. No, she's moving over right now. I'll come pick her up in a bit."
Xiang Shan's attitude was very forceful.
After hearing Xiang Shan's words, Jiang Muye replied, "No."
"I'll move over there." Leng Ruoli's words caught Jiang Muye by surprise.
Jiang Muye had thought Leng Ruoli was on the same side as him, and had never imagined she would say this, which shocked him.
"Ruoli, you…"
"Mom, I'll come back, but I'm bringing Muye with me." Leng Ruoli held Jiang Muye's hand. "If he doesn't go, I won't go back."
Leng Ruoli knew the conflict between Jiang Muye and her mother ran deep, but she wanted to be the glue between them.
It was absolutely impossible for her to separate from Jiang Muye.
Feeling the soft, boneless little hand in his, Jiang Muye's eyes softened, his heart full of contentment, and he said to Xiang Shan, "Then, Mother-in-Law, I'll come visit you at your home."
Xiang Shan: "…"
How could he be so thick-skinned? She wanted her daughter to come over, not for you to come along!
"Forget it, I have things to do. But you still have to attend the training class, Ruoli. Since you were little, I've taught you that whatever you do, you must see it through to the end. You can't fish for three days and dry the nets for two," Xiang Shan lectured her daughter seriously.
Leng Ruoli nodded. "So right now I want to see things through to the end with Muye. Since we're together, we're going to get married."
Xiang Shan: "…"
Why did she feel like her daughter had become a contrarian?
The worst part was Jiang Muye, who was still chiming in from the side, "Yes, Mother-in-Law, don't worry, I'll definitely marry Ruoli and give you a chubby grandson!"
Xiang Shan: "…"
She furiously hung up.
Originally she counted as a top figure who dominated the business world, but now she had actually been left speechless by two little brats.
Xiang Shan was fuming.
Suddenly she heard the game notification sound from her phone.
Oh no, she remembered she was still in a duo queue.
Xiang Shan immediately went to the Honor of Kings screen and saw that the game had already ended.
And they won?
She went AFK and still won?
Xiang Shan saw that the companion player she was playing with was already obediently waiting for her in the ranked room.
Xiang Shan replied: Won?
【Peerless Under Heaven】: That's right. I saw you went AFK. Did something happen?
Xiang Shan: Nothing, I just took a call. Thanks.
【Peerless Under Heaven】: Ran into a few elementary schoolers. After you went AFK they cursed you out. Don't worry, I reported them. They'll probably get muted.
Seeing the other's heartwarming gesture, Xiang Shan was in a great mood: Thanks.
These past few days it had been this person playing with her.
Although they didn't use voice chat, the two of them were quite in sync.
It hadn't been many days since they went from Bronze all the way to the current Star rank. When she played support, the other's jungler was pretty awesome. Of course, at the beginning the other's moves were truly baffling, feeding kills under the tower several times, which made Xiang Shan roll her eyes plenty.
But fortunately, as time went on, the other was worthy of being a companion player, and their moves were actually pretty good, directly carrying her from Bronze to Silver. They did have some skill.
