Chapter 724: A Different Kind of Fun
Rejected 99 Times, the Aloof Campus Belle Comes On Strong
Boss Cutie
When Jiang Muye heard Leng Ruoli's words, he glared at her seriously. "Are you joking? How could I let your hands stay cold all the time? That's a cold womb, and it's bad for your health. When we get back, I'll put some warming patches on you, or maybe give you a moxa treatment. That'll make it better."
"Okay." Leng Ruoli smiled, the corners of her lips curving upward.
Leng Ruoli happily scampered out the door after Jiang Muye. When a fierce gust of wind blew outside, Jiang Muye instinctively moved in front of Leng Ruoli to shield her.
He became her safe harbor. She laughed softly. "Darling, it's so good to have you here. I was right to listen to you—the weather really is cold, and the temperature's dropping fast."
"You're so skinny. If you get blown away, where would I go to pick you up? Of course I have to block the wind for you. Only I can't get blown away." Jiang Muye smiled back. "How about we head back now?"
Leng Ruoli immediately got worked up.
She said to Jiang Muye, "No, we can't go back. I want to stay out a little longer."
Her eyes were utterly sincere as she gazed earnestly at Jiang Muye, making it obvious to him that she was nothing but a little glutton.
"Charging bravely ahead for the sake of good food. Fine, your courage is commendable, so your husband shall satisfy your appetite." Jiang Muye curved his lips upward.
He gripped Leng Ruoli's hand firmly and led her into the car.
Jiang Muye personally fastened her seatbelt for her, even stealing a kiss. Seeing her little face all pink and especially cute and soft, like a little wildcat.
Jiang Muye's mood instantly turned bright and sunny.
Leng Ruoli even hummed a little tune, and the atmosphere in the car became cheerful and relaxed.
Jiang Muye and Leng Ruoli soon arrived at the school gate.
Jiang Muye had never imagined that on his wedding night, he would be bringing his darling back home.
It had only been a few days since the semester started. Originally, Jiang Muye had wanted to take Leng Ruoli on a honeymoon, but considering that she was now pregnant and couldn't endure the strain of travel.
Plus, Spring Festival was coming up soon, so they might as well just celebrate it directly.
Anyway, wherever the two of them were together, that was their honeymoon.
The beef vermicelli shop at the school gate was still open—after all, it was a late-night food stall.
When Jiang Muye showed up with Leng Ruoli, the owner was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Muye, aren't you two getting married today? Why are you coming to my shop to eat so late at night?"
After all, Jiang Muye and Leng Ruoli were both regulars, and on top of that, they were famous figures.
The owner had already seen the wedding news trending on social media. He even wondered if it had actually happened a couple of days ago and the news had only just broken today.
"Even getting married can't stop my darling's appetite. She just wants to eat your cooking." Jiang Muye joked, "How about I hire you at a high salary to be our family chef?"
The owner was surprised—he'd never imagined that running a little shop could lead to a second career.
And as a chef in such a famous big shot's home, no less.
"Of course I'd be willing, but the thing is, I want to run a century-old shop. Everyone in this university town loves my food. If I leave, where would they go to eat? If you two like it, you'd better just keep coming by and supporting my business."
After hearing the owner's words, Jiang Muye didn't push it. After all, it was just a suggestion—everyone had their own ambitions.
"Alright, then I'll bring my darling here more often to patronize your shop, and I'll bring my kid along to eat here too." Jiang Muye smiled.
Leng Ruoli nodded along with Jiang Muye. "Right, it's a bit of a shame, but as long as you're open even one more day, I'll still have my chances to eat it. Eating at home or eating out—it's all the same."
"Alright then! Seeing how supportive you two are, I'll just make you extra portions, and I'll throw in a wedding gift too—an extra serving of candied sweet potato, wishing you two endless love!" the owner said warmly.
After hearing the owner's words, Jiang Muye was very happy, and he and Leng Ruoli said in unison, "Thank you, boss!"
After Jiang Muye and Leng Ruoli went to order, the owner immediately set about preparing the dishes.
Soon the food was on the table, all of it Leng Ruoli's favorites. Laid out across the table, it was quite a spectacular sight.
Jiang Muye's mouth watered just looking at it.
"Here it comes—candied sweet potato! Wishing you two endless love!" The owner set the candied sweet potato down on the table.
"It looks delicious. Thank you, boss. May your business prosper!" Jiang Muye blessed him with a smile.
"Then I'll ride on your coattails. I'll go get busy now—enjoy your meal, and call me if you need anything." The owner smiled warmly, then went off to work.
"Here, this is your favorite beef vermicelli and fried dumplings. Take a bite!" Jiang Muye enthusiastically set the beef vermicelli in front of Leng Ruoli, giving the plate a push toward her.
Leng Ruoli's eyes lit up at the sight of the lavish spread, and she was utterly satisfied. "It looks so good. I bet I'll be waddling out of here stuffed today."
"No worries, I'll just carry you out on my back." Jiang Muye gazed at Leng Ruoli affectionately.
Especially seeing Leng Ruoli start eating without a moment's delay, his whole body felt full.
Jiang Muye's lips curved into a smile.
He didn't feel the slightest bit hungry. Just watching Leng Ruoli take small bites made him feel as if he'd already eaten his fill.
Seeing that Jiang Muye hadn't even touched his chopsticks, Leng Ruoli asked in confusion, "Why are you just watching me eat? This is so embarrassing for me. Come try the owner's cooking too—it's really delicious!" Leng Ruoli recommended to Jiang Muye.
Jiang Muye laughed out loud. "I've been eating here since freshman year. Don't you think I'd know it's good?"
He paused. "You just eat. Watching you eat, I feel like I've eaten too."
"That won't do. It can't fill you up. Look at you—you've worked so hard all day and barely eaten anything. You have to eat something, or your stomach definitely won't be able to take it." Leng Ruoli's sparkling eyes stayed fixed on Jiang Muye's.
Full of concern—Jiang Muye even felt that her voice was just so pleasant to listen to.
It made him feel drunk without having had a single drop of alcohol.
"Alright, I'll eat a little. I can't waste the owner's kindness. I've got to properly try this candied sweet potato, and I have to eat it with my darling—that way it'll taste better." As Jiang Muye spoke, he took a bite of the candied sweet potato, and a few strands of sugar clung to his lips.
Jiang Muye playfully leaned his face toward Leng Ruoli. "Give me a kiss and see if it's sweet."
Leng Ruoli's little face flushed bright red. She could see that Jiang Muye was teasing her, but she had absolutely no resistance against the handsome Jiang Muye before her.
