Chapter 560: You're Pregnant

Rejected 99 Times, the Aloof Campus Belle Comes On Strong at Me, Jiang Muye

Boss Cutie

"I… I didn't mean it like that. I'll wait for you at the door."

"Okay." Jiang Muye ruffled Leng Ruoli's hair, then turned and headed to the restroom.

Jiang Muye effortlessly collected the urine sample and handed it over to the person at the window.

Project A was just about done.

"Done," Jiang Muye said when he found Leng Ruoli.

"Then let's head back." Leng Ruoli took Jiang Muye's hand, smiling sweetly. "They just drew blood, and my arm's still a bit sore. I need to replenish my blood."

"Then I'll get you some pig's blood to eat."

"No, I don't like that!" Leng Ruoli leaned adorably against Jiang Muye's shoulder.

"Then duck blood?" Jiang Muye teased her on purpose.

"Even more no!" Leng Ruoli pounded him with her little pink fists.

Jiang Muye pressed himself against Leng Ruoli's soft body. "Alright, I know. I'll treat you to your favorite Haidilao, okay?"

The corners of Leng Ruoli's lips curled up. "Okay."

"Haha, let's eat Haidilao out of business." Jiang Muye laughed.

"Why don't you say you'll just buy Haidilao outright?" Leng Ruoli teased.

Jiang Muye pinched Leng Ruoli's little face. "Good idea. How about I buy it?"

"Then Haidilao would have to be willing to sell to you. And even if they were, could you manage it all!" Leng Ruoli giggled.

"Of course I could. Don't I have you, my capable wife?" Jiang Muye and Leng Ruoli joked back and forth.

Leng Ruoli smiled sweetly and leaned on Jiang Muye's shoulder. "Alright, let's go eat. But honestly, do you remember the card we got for that Beef Hot Pot Restaurant we used to go to?"

"Of course I remember." Jiang Muye nodded.

"You bought the place, so let's go patronize our own business." Leng Ruoli gave a gentle smile.

"Oh, so the boss lady wants to eat at her own restaurant!" Jiang Muye laughed.

"You loaded tens of thousands onto the card. It'd be a waste not to go. And boosting our own hot pot restaurant's revenue is a good thing too." Leng Ruoli said adorably.

Jiang Muye reached out and rubbed Leng Ruoli's head, nodding. "Fine, we'll do as you say. You love hot pot anyway, so it's all the same wherever we eat."

Their restaurant's hot pot wouldn't be too spicy either, so it was a flavor Leng Ruoli could handle.

As soon as Jiang Muye left the hospital, the System began to remind him: 【Congratulations, Host, for checking in at the hospital for two hours total. You have earned 500 points.】

Jiang Muye took Leng Ruoli to the nearest Beef Hot Pot Restaurant.

The brand's stores were doing well. It had been about to go bankrupt before, but ever since Jiang Muye acquired it, it had come back from the dead.

It had already expanded from a single store into a chain, with more and more people joining as franchisees. Business was booming.

【Congratulations, Host, for successfully checking in at the hot pot restaurant. You have earned 300 points.】 the System reminded him.

Jiang Muye and Leng Ruoli found a seat by the window, then ordered a Braised Flavor Pot and a lot of tender beef, which Leng Ruoli loved.

Leng Ruoli ate with great relish, and watching her made Jiang Muye hungry too.

The two of them quickly enjoyed a fine meal.

Just as Jiang Muye instinctively moved to leave with Leng Ruoli, the waiter instinctively came over to charge them. "Hello, sir, please pay the bill."

Just as Jiang Muye was about to take out his membership card, the store manager came running over in a panic. He pulled the waiter aside and scolded her. "What's the matter with you, don't you know anything? Don't you know who's in front of you? That's our boss!"

The waiter was a girl just out of her early twenties. She stared blankly. The guy in front of her, about her age, was actually their store's boss?

"I'm… I'm sorry!" The waiter instinctively realized she was done for.

She had made a mistake, and she was flustered.

Seeing the waiter's timid, frightened look, Jiang Muye said to the store manager, "It's fine. I came here to spend money anyway. I loaded up my membership card. Just swipe it. She's just doing her job, it's good."

"Thank you." The waiter let out a breath of relief and instinctively took the card Jiang Muye handed her.

She still found it hard to believe.

She had never imagined a young guy could own such a big hot pot restaurant.

After swiping the card, Jiang Muye and Leng Ruoli left.

The waiter said to the store manager, "I'm sorry, I won't make such a rookie mistake again."

The store manager let out a sigh. "Thankfully the boss wasn't angry. Do you think he's just our boss?"

"Huh?" The waiter was stunned.

"He's the CEO of Chen Group! The Jiang Corporation is his too!" The store manager grew excited, and there was a gleam in his eyes as he spoke.

"Don't be fooled by how young he looks, just a college student, but his abilities are huge! You didn't know, did you? Our hot pot restaurant's old store was about to go bankrupt back then, couldn't keep going, and it was all because his girlfriend wanted to eat here, so he just bought shares and took over the hot pot restaurant!"

Hearing the store manager's words, the waiter gasped and covered her mouth. "He's so good."

Wasn't this the kind of plot from an idol drama, actually brought to life?

The waiter had always thought rich men were mostly fickle, but she never imagined someone could dote on his girlfriend like this.

She had originally thought that just because Jiang Muye was good-looking, he probably wasn't devoted or faithful, yet he was actually this good to his girlfriend.

"That's right, just by chance he bought the hot pot restaurant, and that's how we have today, how we can work here so well. From now on, never make this kind of mistake again. You have to figure out how to win his favor, so we can get promoted and get a raise."

The store manager's words made the waiter nod respectfully. "Yes."

If only she could have such an outstanding, devoted boyfriend!

——

The next day.

Leng Ruoli went to class as usual.

After class ended, the Counselor came to find Leng Ruoli and said seriously, "Leng Ruoli, come to my office. There's a problem with your physical exam results."

Leng Ruoli was stunned. Seeing the Counselor's grave face, her heart began to feel a bit panicked.

What kind of problem could there be?

Could she have come down with some terminal illness?

She had been feeling a bit unwell lately, always wanting to sleep.

Following behind the Counselor, Leng Ruoli was on edge the whole way.

Her hands clutched tightly at her skirt, afraid that all the diseases she dreaded had come knocking.

Her eyes suddenly reddened.

She was really afraid something might happen to her.

After reaching the office, the Counselor took out her file and sighed. "You've always been a student I'm proud of, but why is it like this?"

"…Teacher, what's wrong with me?" Leng Ruoli bit her back teeth and asked anxiously.

"When was your last period? Do you remember?"

"I… I think it was over a month ago." After hearing the Counselor's words, Leng Ruoli trembled. "Teacher, you don't mean…"

Leng Ruoli didn't finish, but the Counselor's words had already come out. "That's right. You're pregnant."
