Chapter 515: Securing Mother-in-Law Is Imperative

Boss Cutie

Little White Dove was extremely eager. "I'll write it!"

"There's also the art line-work assignment," Jiang Muye hinted.

Little White Dove was very enthusiastic. "I'll do it!"

"As for CAD…"

"I'll draw it."

Jiang Muye nodded. "Great. You're handling all the assignments."

"Absolutely no problem!" Compared to all that, what was a sports car? He, Little White Dove, loved learning!

Just as Little White Dove was feeling very satisfied, Jiang Muye suddenly caught sight of a familiar figure.

"You guys wait here, I need to go see someone." Jiang Muye's words piqued Little White Dove's curiosity.

"See who?" Little White Dove asked.

Jiang Muye raised an eyebrow. "My mother-in-law."

That single sentence shocked everyone present.

Old He's eyes went wide. "What the hell? You ran into your mother-in-law at a car exhibition, for real?"

Little White Dove was also startled. "I was the first in our dorm to get a girlfriend, and I still haven't even met my mother-in-law, but you beat me to it?"

"I've met her several times already. It's not the first time." Jiang Muye didn't mention that his mother-in-law was into him. Otherwise, these beast roommates of his would all blow up.

After Jiang Muye sent his beast roommates away, he started walking toward the distance.

At that moment, Xiang Shan was wearing a white blazer and a pencil skirt, listening to a sales assistant introduce new cars. Just as she couldn't make up her mind and was struggling over what to buy, Jiang Muye came over to offer his recommendations.

"Mother-in-Law, buying a car? I think this one's pretty good. You can take a look." Jiang Muye pointed at the sports car on the right and spoke to Xiang Shan.

Xiang Shan glanced at it and said coldly, "Looks good but useless."

"Then how about this one?"

"Rotten on the inside."

"Maybe this one?" Jiang Muye recommended again.

"Flashy and gaudy."

Xiang Shan's attitude was icy.

Jiang Muye even felt that her gaze carried hostility, and that every word she said was somehow aimed at him.

"…Are you sure? This one's pure white. Is that really flashy and gaudy?" Jiang Muye felt that for some unknown reason, Xiang Shan's attitude toward him had gotten much worse.

"Yes." Xiang Shan said coldly, "These past two days, I've noticed she really doesn't look well. I think it's better to have her move back home."

Jiang Muye was speechless.

In the end, it all came back to the same issue.

"Mother-in-Law, you'll always be our mother-in-law. Even without Ruoli, I would never like you, so I hope you give up on that idea as soon as possible. Actually, Father-in-Law treats you pretty well. Your engagement hasn't been dissolved yet, has it? You two should rekindle your old flame."

Xiang Shan's eyes suddenly turned cold. "You really are full of yourself."

"Huh?" Jiang Muye was very surprised.

"I don't just dislike you now. I hate you." Xiang Shan stared at Jiang Muye coldly. "You and my daughter are absolutely impossible!"

After hearing Xiang Shan's words, Jiang Muye was stunned.

What happened here? Wasn't Xiang Shan completely infatuated with him before? Why was she so angry now?

As Xiang Shan carried her bag and walked out, Jiang Muye hurriedly chased after her.

"Mother-in-Law, why are you angry? Did Father-in-Law make you angry? When I arranged for you two to play games together back then, it was to set you two up. Weren't you two going to play games together in the end anyway?"

As soon as the words landed, Xiang Shan's high heels stopped.

Xiang Shan stared at Jiang Muye with murderous intent. "What! Could it be that the companion player you introduced to me was Leng Qihua?!"

Jiang Muye: "???"

So Mother-in-Law still didn't know?

Then why was she so angry at him!

"Jiang Muye, I've really had enough of you!" Xiang Shan's fury exploded all at once, and she left in a fit of rage.

Watching Xiang Shan's furious departure, Jiang Muye realized that things seemed to be heading somewhere uncontrollable.

Now that Father-in-Law's identity had been exposed, his relationship with Mother-in-Law had also turned hostile.

"What happened?" When his roommates saw Xiang Shan leave in a rage, they were very worried about Jiang Muye.

Jiang Muye grabbed at his hair in frustration. "I think I messed up."

Jiang Muye had indeed messed up. On the way back while driving, he received a call from Father Leng.

The moment it connected, a furious voice came through. "The person playing as my companion was Xiang Shan?"

"…Yes."

"You didn't say so earlier?! If you'd told me earlier, I wouldn't have been such a straight man!" Father Leng held his head in despair.

In fact, Father Leng had stolen quite a few kills from Xiang Shan during the game.

Someone as competitive as Xiang Shan would definitely hold a grudge.

"How is it now?" Jiang Muye figured that if Father Leng could contact him, something must have happened.

Father Leng was melancholy. "She called me and gave me a fierce tongue-lashing. She still thinks I knew about it and was in cahoots with you to mess with her. She won't listen to my explanation, and she's blocked my phone and the game!"

"That's pretty serious." Jiang Muye hadn't expected this.

He'd originally thought that playing games anonymously like this would let both of them be free of pressure and burden, making it easier to develop an online romance.

However, before Father-in-Law's sunset romance could even arrive, the sun had already set early.

"I'm really finished now! Son-in-Law, you have to take responsibility for this! You have to help me explain!"

"Then who's going to explain for me?" Jiang Muye was caught between laughter and tears. "She blocked me too."

Father Leng: "…Then we're totally screwed."

Jiang Muye sighed.

A woman's heart was a needle at the bottom of the sea.

A woman was an animal you absolutely couldn't provoke, or you'd suffer for it.

After hanging up on Father Leng, Jiang Muye went to discuss things with Leng Ruoli.

He guessed that Leng Ruoli hadn't yet suffered the same fate.

When Leng Ruoli learned about Jiang Muye's situation, her eyelashes fluttered. "That's tough~"

"Forget it. Tonight, let's just go steal the household register." Jiang Muye decided to give up completely and lay down on the bed.

Leng Ruoli leaned close to Jiang Muye and nodded. "Right, steal the household register. That's a good plan."

"You little troublemaker, you really want to steal it?" Jiang Muye flicked Leng Ruoli's nose.

Leng Ruoli smiled coyly. "I want to marry you."

"Yeah, I like hearing you say that. So sweet." Jiang Muye leaned over and kissed Leng Ruoli's full, translucent red lips, soft and smooth like jelly.

"I want to marry you too, openly and honorably. Heaven never seals off all paths. There's absolutely a way." Jiang Muye's lips curved up.

Leng Ruoli nodded. "Okay. Then let's go appease my mom right now. Once she's happy, we can get our marriage certificate sooner."

Jiang Muye had originally wanted to slack off, but after hearing Leng Ruoli's words, he was full of energy, like he'd been injected with chicken blood. "Alright! I'm going to make your mom agree to us being together no matter what!"

Leng Ruoli revealed a radiant smile. "Okay."

"Later, whatever I do, don't interrupt me. Also, remember to record it. No, just screen-record it directly." Jiang Muye said mysteriously.

Leng Ruoli asked curiously, "What are you trying to do?"

"You'll know when the time comes." Jiang Muye said with confidence.

This time, it had to be done. He had a System in his hands, after all.
