Chapter 74: We're Actually Brother and Sister

Jiang Muye had only said it casually, mainly to deal with Jiang Xueli.

Little White Dove was eating a fried dumpling nearby. When she heard that, she burst out laughing. "Muzi, you've plucked all the bamboo shoots off the mountain!"

"Who says it isn't so? Come to think of it, you two are both surnamed Jiang," Old He said with a chuckle.

Little White Dove waved her hand excitedly. "Seer, knife him, knife him."

Jiang Xueli puffed out her cheeks slightly and pursed her red lips. "Nonsense, I don't have a brother like you. We don't look alike at all."

"How are we not alike? Look, we both have two eyes, one nose, one mouth. It's like we were cast from the same mold," Jiang Muye said.

Jiang Xueli let out a little huff, knowing Jiang Muye was teasing her, and she didn't take the bait.

Her twin tails swayed slightly, and her striking eyes curved, just like a little crescent moon. "Alright then, let's not talk about the shoot for now. Let's go stroll the snack street together, I'm so hungry."

Jiang Xueli's thinking was simple: cast a long line to catch a big fish. There was no rush. Once she won Jiang Muye over, he might soften up.

"Goddess, here, have a fried dumpling~" Old He offered the fried dumpling.

"I want to eat yours." Jiang Xueli gazed at Jiang Muye with puppy eyes.

Jiang Muye didn't fuss about it and directly handed a portion of fried dumplings to Jiang Xueli.

She had bought them in the first place.

"Old Wu, give me another portion," Jiang Muye decided to buy one for himself.

Jiang Xueli had originally just wanted Jiang Muye to feed her a bite, but who would have thought Jiang Muye would order his own. She pouted her red lips. How come there are still people who don't fall for my beauty trap?

Has my charm declined?

Old Wu immediately prepared a portion for Jiang Muye. Jiang Muye wanted to pay, but Jiang Xueli quickly scanned the code again.

Jiang Muye was exasperated. "You're a girl, what do you need such fast hands for!"

It was literally an instant scan!

Jiang Xueli said proudly, "There must be benefits to it!"

"For example?"

"Paying for you." Jiang Xueli smiled sweetly. "Today all the spending is on me, Miss Jiang."

"No need, I have money." Jiang Muye didn't want to owe Jiang Xueli a favor. If she used this against him later and threatened him into the shoot, that would be bad. Besides, he had this much money.

He was actually troubled over how to spend the pocket money his aunt gave him.

If he didn't spend ten million in a week, his aunt would scold him again, and she might even do like last week and just give him twenty million for the week.

Jiang Muye took out a hundred-yuan bill from his wallet and handed it to Jiang Xueli. "Here, keep the change."

How could Jiang Xueli accept it?

She had been using the chance to pay to build up goodwill in the first place. If Jiang Muye refused, wouldn't her scheme have failed?

"I have money too." Jiang Xueli laughed and teased Jiang Muye. "If you want to pay me back, why not pay me back as a person?"

"Sorry, human trafficking is illegal," Jiang Muye said coolly.

Jiang Xueli grew anxious. "I mean lend you to me for a day."

"No," Jiang Muye said. "I'm not willing."

"Fine, then I'll take this hundred first." Jiang Xueli snatched the hundred-yuan bill Jiang Muye had given her.

Seeing her accept it, Jiang Muye figured there wouldn't be any more complications, and he started eating the fried dumplings.

He had to admit Old Wu's fried dumplings were truly yyds!

The surface of the fried dumpling was crispy and golden, and the texture was fragrant and crisp. When he bit into it, it was piping hot, and the juices came rushing out, leaking everywhere.

Jiang Muye wasn't prepared. He bit down, and it splattered.

The juices splashed directly onto Jiang Xueli's exquisite, cute face.

Jiang Xueli herself stared at Jiang Muye blankly, a hint of surprise on her face, as the juices dripped down her face one drop at a time, tracing her pleasing contours.

It even dripped onto her full red lips, making her look absolutely alluring.

Little White Dove and the others began to gasp.

Such an invincibly beautiful girl, and famous too, was bound to have a bit of a temper. Now that Jiang Muye had done this to her, she was definitely going to blow up.

Jiang Muye felt extremely awkward now. He started blaming himself for not controlling it well and directly getting Jiang Xueli wet.

"Did it burn you? Let me wipe it for you." Jiang Muye was very apologetic. After all, he was the one who did wrong, so he had to make up for it properly.

Jiang Muye took out a tissue and began wiping Jiang Xueli's face.

Jiang Xueli's oval face was full and plump, full of collagen. Now that the juices had been wiped away, she was still fresh and charming.

But beyond everyone's expectations, Jiang Xueli wasn't angry. Instead, she enjoyed Jiang Muye's service. "If you feel guilty, then come shoot with me?"

Jiang Muye said, "I'll still think of other ways."

Jiang Xueli pouted her red lips. "You got me all wet, and you're not going to take responsibility?"

"I didn't do it on purpose. Isn't this me making up for it?" Jiang Muye glanced at Jiang Xueli. "Besides, I really don't like going to shoots. It's tiring and hard, and the most important thing is that after the footage is done, outsiders will point and judge. It'll not only invite criticism but also bring me some trouble."

Being enthusiastically watched wherever he went was just too uncomfortable.

Besides, there were too many rules in the cosplay circle. Jiang Muye didn't like being constrained. Even though he liked 2D culture, that didn't mean he wanted to be a coser.

"But on the contrary, you can also gain a lot of popularity, and then lots and lots of girls will like you!" Jiang Xueli said excitedly, unable to hold back.

As a result, Little White Dove chimed in from the side. "Campus Belle Jiang, he really doesn't lack girls liking him."

"That's right. If I remember correctly, besides you, the other three of the Four Great Campus Belles are quite fond of him too," Old He said.

Kai nodded. "I can vouch for that~ On top of that, there are even some other girls who like him."

Jiang Xueli, having been rated as one of the Four Great Campus Belles, of course knew the other three. But she herself wasn't usually at school much. Most of the time she skipped class to go to her studio or went out of town for shoots, so naturally she didn't care much about school gossip.

But now, hearing everyone say the other three Campus Belles were all pursuing Jiang Muye, Jiang Xueli was instantly full of admiration. "As expected of my male god, so amazing!"

Jiang Muye smiled bitterly.

He would rather not have so many girls liking him. He just needed the person he liked to like him back.

"Alright, let's go look around elsewhere. I want to eat hot and sour noodles." Jiang Muye shot Little White Dove a look, meaning the two of us should retreat quickly.

After all, they were brothers who had slept together before. How could she not understand what Jiang Muye was thinking?

Little White Dove nodded immediately. "Right, let's buy some stuff and hurry back to the dorm. The weather's too cold."

"Sure, let's go together." Jiang Xueli smiled and followed Jiang Muye.

He took one step, and she took one step, like a shadow.

There was no way he could make Jiang Xueli leave. After all, Jiang Xueli hadn't done anything bad, and the snack street wasn't his either.

Jiang Muye pondered inwardly. But this snack street could be bought up, and then I could add some menus I like.

"Boss lady, give me a portion, mildly spicy, with cilantro." Jiang Muye went to buy Heartbreak Hot and Sour Noodles. Actually, he couldn't really handle spicy food, but without any spice, eating was flavorless and not fragrant at all.

Little White Dove agreed. "Boss lady, give me a portion too. Add spice to death. As long as I don't die from the spice, keep adding it."

Jiang Muye instinctively glanced at Little White Dove. "Will you still be able to get out of the bathroom tomorrow?"

Little White Dove muttered to Jiang Muye, "Don't say this kind of stuff in front of the Goddess. If you have something to say, we'll say it under the covers."
