Chapter 614: I'm Coming to Your Engagement Banquet, Aren't You Afraid I'll Steal the Bride?

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

Boss Cutie

Little White Dove smiled. "Alright, alright, you win. I'll definitely come."

"Give me your phone."

"What for?" Little White Dove asked, puzzled.

"To go to the hospital and get a department checkup. You think I was just talking when I tried to persuade you earlier? I'm doing this for your own good, son." Jiang Muye glared at Little White Dove.

He really wanted Little White Dove to return to his former lively self.

This silly kid still thought he was sick.

Jiang Muye also looked forward to seeing Little White Dove's overjoyed expression once he learned he wasn't sick.

"I'm busy these next couple days, still have some things to take care of. How about we go Monday, after your engagement party? How's that sound?" Little White Dove smiled helplessly.

"Fine, it's a deal. If you don't go, I'll drag you there!" Jiang Muye pointed at Little White Dove.

Little White Dove laughed heartily. "Don't worry, I'll go!"

With that, Jiang Muye felt reassured.

He really was quite busy, and still had to go notify the others.

After saying goodbye to Little White Dove, Jiang Muye went to find Jiang Xueli.

"Brother!" Jiang Xueli was thrilled, her little face flushed red. "Great, I've finally been waiting for your engagement banquet! I'm going to wear the pretty new clothes I bought!"

"You'd better dress low-key, don't steal my wife's spotlight," Jiang Muye said, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

If Jiang Xueli showed up in cosplay, with mechas and wings and all, she'd completely steal the show and turn the venue into a comic convention.

"I know exactly what I'm doing!" Jiang Xueli made an OK gesture. "Do you need an emcee? Hahaha, I'll do it!"

"To crash the party?" Jiang Muye glanced sideways at Jiang Xueli.

Jiang Xueli suddenly grabbed Jiang Muye's arm and muttered, "Do you look down on me that much?"

"I think you could make the venue really lively," Jiang Muye said after a moment's thought.

Jiang Xueli chuckled. "Right? Isn't it great to have a fun engagement banquet?"

"Forget it, let's keep it formal." Jiang Muye didn't want it turning into a comedy show.

"Hahaha, Brother, don't be afraid of me, I'm your sister from different parents!" Jiang Xueli grinned. "I'll give you guys a huge red envelope!"

"We're all family, what red envelope? Just show up on time," Jiang Muye said. He wasn't short on money; he just wanted a few friends to witness the engagement.

Jiang Xueli chuckled. "Brother, you really spoil me. Then to celebrate your imminent marriage, how about I arrange some kind of pre-engagement狂欢夜 party? Let Sister Ruoli have some fun?"

"Don't. Your Sister Ruoli can't handle that kind of fun." Jiang Muye immediately tensed up.

If Jiang Xueli dragged her off to some bar, that would be terrible.

Right now Leng Ruoli was only a month or so pregnant, and the pregnancy wasn't stable.

"What's wrong? Is she pregnant?" Jiang Xueli blinked rapidly, guessing.

"You guessed it, so don't spread it around." Jiang Muye didn't hide it.

Jiang Xueli covered her mouth, eyes wide. "Brother, you're way too awesome."

"Of course!"

"That's great, I'll be able to play with the kid soon." Jiang Xueli was very excited.

Jiang Muye looked at Jiang Xueli's happy expression and felt gloomy. "A kid isn't a toy, children are very fragile."

"Look how much you care. I know what I'm doing, Brother. Whatever you need, just say it. How many wedding cars do you need at the venue? Tell me and I'll arrange it all!" Jiang Xueli grinned, speaking excitedly.

"We've already hired people for all that, it's all taken care of."

"Then I want to be a bridesmaid!" Jiang Xueli volunteered.

"Alright, fine, you can be a bridesmaid, as long as you don't deliberately mess with me when I go to fetch the bride."

Jiang Xueli huffed. "Brother, am I that kind of awful sister? Even though I'm on Sister-in-law's side, my heart is with you. When you go to fetch the bride, whoever bullies you, I won't go easy on them!"

Jiang Xueli rolled up her sleeves. "I've been lifting weights lately, I don't care how many crybabies I beat up."

After hearing Jiang Xueli's words, Jiang Muye felt reassured.

Heh heh, Jiang Xueli was a hundred percent on his side, so having her on the bridesmaid team was completely solid.

At that moment, Leng Ruoli, after much deliberation, also began notifying Mi Lu.

"Sister Mi Lu, I'm getting engaged this Sunday, will you come? If you're unwilling, I won't force you." Leng Ruoli asked Mi Lu carefully.

She knew Sister Mi Lu had been very fond of Jiang Muye before, but if Mi Lu, as her good friend, didn't come to her engagement banquet, Leng Ruoli would definitely regret it.

More than anyone, Leng Ruoli hoped Sister Mi Lu would attend her engagement banquet.

"You're inviting me to your engagement banquet? You're way too bold!" Mi Lu huffed. "Aren't you afraid I'll come steal the groom?"

"Huh?" Leng Ruoli was stunned.

"We were rivals in love before, after all."

"I know, but we're also best friends…" Leng Ruoli bit her lower lip, deeply anxious.

"Just teasing you. If I really came to steal the bride, I'd be stealing you. I'm not interested in any man right now, I'm interested in you." Mi Lu's tone was relaxed. "My best friend's engagement banquet, of course I'll come."

After hearing Mi Lu's words, Leng Ruoli's eyes lit up. "That's wonderful."

Mi Lu said to Leng Ruoli, "If there's anything else you need prepared, as long as I can help, I'll definitely help you."

"Nothing else, I'm already happy just having you there."

"This time when I come back I'll bring you a wedding gift! Ah, my best friend is getting married already, and that brat Jiang Muye gets to have you. But your taste is excellent, same as mine!" Mi Lu said with a smile.

In the past she might have minded, but after going through so much, if she still made a fuss over trifles, that would be too petty.

Besides, it was her fault before that caused a rift between Leng Ruoli and Jiang Muye.

Mi Lu just wanted Jiang Muye to be happy now.

The man she liked was getting married. So what if the bride wasn't her?

It was better than Jiang Muye marrying her and then looking miserable at the wedding.

With that thought, Mi Lu's eyes glistened with tears, but she wore a smile. "You have to treat him very, very well, and he has to treat you very well too. You two are both flesh of my flesh to me, I can't bear to let go of either of you."

Mi Lu's words made Leng Ruoli's eyes well up too. "Sister Mi Lu, thank you."

"Alright, I'll stop talking to you now. I need to book a flight, otherwise if the tickets sell out, there's nothing I can do about getting there for your wedding."

"Okay." Leng Ruoli smiled and nodded.

After hanging up, Leng Ruoli felt completely relaxed. Her biggest worry had been resolved.

What remained was looking forward to becoming a beautiful bride and waiting for her husband to come fetch her.

After notifying family and friends, Leng Ruoli prepared to meet up with Jiang Muye.

Soon the two of them would go with both sets of parents to try on the custom-made clothes, which would all be worn at the engagement banquet.

On the way to find Jiang Muye, Leng Ruoli spotted a graceful figure feeding pigeons by the school fountain.
