Chapter 77: You Have... Impure Intentions Toward the Cold Campus Belle

Boss Cutie

However, Leng Ruoli discovered that the bag was stuffed with all sorts of things.

Aside from the Chaozhou porridge, there were shrimp dumplings, soup dumplings, radish cake, vegetable buns, and layer cakes.

There was so much stuff. Did he just grab things at random? How tsundere.

Leng Ruoli's gaze turned very gentle.

But it also made her like him even more.

The portions were a bit much. There was no way Leng Ruoli could finish all of it—one bowl of porridge was enough to fill her up—but she tried to take at least a bite of everything.

Until she discovered something special tucked away at the very bottom of the bag.

It was beyond Leng Ruoli's expectations.

She couldn't help but laugh out loud.

At that moment, Jiang Muye had already returned to the dorm. When he walked in wearing the scarf, Little White Dove, who had been eating noodles, stopped and stroked his chin, sizing Jiang Muye up. "Something's off."

"What is it?" Jiang Muye set the hot and sour noodles on the table and asked, puzzled.

Little White Dove gave a meaningful smile. "You weren't wearing a scarf just now, right? Heh heh, so why'd you suddenly put one on?"

"None of your damn business. Why's it just you in the dorm? Where are those two idiots?" Jiang Muye glared at the ill-intentioned Little White Dove.

"Off keeping their girlfriends company, obviously. Suya's studying English today, so I'm here by myself. But…" Little White Dove leaned in and sniffed. "Smells nice."

"You pervert. Keep this up and I'll kick you to death." Jiang Muye shooed Little White Dove away.

"There's a girl's perfume on you, and this scarf is a women's scarf. Spill it—what were you doing just now? Sneaking off into the woods?"

"Screw you. Your daddy's gonna beat you to death. Don't be so filthy." Jiang Muye laughed and spat.

"Then tell me properly where the scarf came from~ Tell me, and I'll let you off."

"Little White Dove, if you keep acting like a dead fool, don't come to me to revise your thesis." Jiang Muye said.

"Daddy, I was wrong. Forgive me?" Little White Dove was about to cling to his leg.

If nobody revised his thesis and the professor sent it back, he'd fail.

"Look at this 'Grit Points' of yours." Jiang Muye gave Little White Dove a sidelong glance.

"Can Grit Points be eaten as food? Of course I still have to beg Daddy to revise my paper." Little White Dove said fawningly.

"Alright, I'm eating my noodles. Otherwise they'll get cold and taste bad." Jiang Muye ignored Little White Dove and grabbed his hot and sour noodles, digging in.

But after one bite, Jiang Muye started wheezing and puffing out air—the spiciness was killer.

"Is this proprietress from Chongqing or Sichuan? How can 'mildly spicy' be this spicy?!"

He felt like the proprietress was out to rob him and take his life—she must have added extra chili.

Jiang Muye hurriedly started drinking pure milk to cut the spice, but the burn wouldn't go away.

As a result, Little White Dove, who was slurping his hot and sour noodles, suddenly met Jiang Muye's eyes. "No wonder I was thinking my bowl tasted so bland—turns out I grabbed the wrong one."

Jiang Muye shot Little White Dove a look. "Do you believe I'll knife you? I think the one trying to harm me is you!"

Little White Dove gave a dry laugh. "My bad, my bad. Let's swap back!"

"You've already finished yours. Forget it, I'll just tough it out." Even though it was spicy, it really was damn delicious.

Jiang Muye fought it out with the extra-spicy noodles, and by the end he was close to tears.

Just as he finished, his mouth was so swollen from the spice that it was puffy.

While he was chugging milk, his phone started dinging with a message.

Jiang Muye picked up his phone and saw it was a message from Leng Ruoli—she'd sent a photo.

In the photo was a candied hawthorn stick.

Leng Ruoli: 【You even bought me a candied hawthorn stick?】

Jiang Muye: 【I saw someone was sick, so I got it to cheer them up. After all, last time someone used cotton candy to cheer me up, so I have to return the favor.】

When Leng Ruoli saw Jiang Muye's reply, she smiled with a faint smile.

She was holding that candied hawthorn stick in her hand, her pretty eyes curving with a gentle arc.

So she went back to typing away.

Back in the dorm, Jiang Muye was just throwing away the takeout box when his phone buzzed with an alert.

Leng Ruoli: 【A certain sick person has been cheered up very much.】

She followed it up with a happy cat sticker.

Jiang Muye immediately started sending stickers back.

And so, before they knew it, the two of them had started a sticker war.

Jiang Muye basically emptied out his entire life's savings.

They went back and forth for dozens of stickers.

Then his sharp eyes caught one of the stickers Leng Ruoli sent—it looked like one of the ones he'd just sent.

He was smug: 【You stole my image. I caught you.】

Leng Ruoli's little face flushed red. She hadn't expected to be caught.

She replied: 【Aren't you stealing images too? If others didn't post them, you'd have no way to save them either.】

Jiang Muye: 【Fine, you've got a point. I lose to you. You're allowed to save them all.】

Leng Ruoli: 【Same to you.】

Jiang Muye was holding his phone, reluctant to put it down, when he noticed Kai and Old He had returned.

Jiang Muye said in surprise, "You guys are back already?"

"Eldest Brother, we've been gone over four hours. Is that still 'already'? It's almost lights-out." Old He was speechless.

"It's almost ten?" Jiang Muye was very surprised. "I haven't even showered yet. I'll be showering in the dark later. Fuck, my underwear and stinky socks aren't washed either."

Time really flew by so damn fast.

Before he even noticed, the whole evening had almost passed.

"Hurry up, or you really will be showering in the dark." Old He said with glee at his misfortune.

"Fine." Jiang Muye answered, then sent Leng Ruoli a WeChat message: 【It's almost lights-out, I'm going to shower, you should hurry up and sleep.】

Leng Ruoli: 【Okay.】

After finishing his messages with Leng Ruoli, Jiang Muye happily ran off to the bathroom.

But after Jiang Muye got inside, the bulb went black.

Fuck, the lights went out after all.

From outside came Little White Dove's ghostly wailing: "Damn it, my computer ran out of battery and shut down. The dorm auntie is way too punctual!"

Kai nodded. "Tell me about it. I forgot to charge mine too. Anyone got a power bank~"

Old He, meanwhile, was overjoyed on his bed: "Haha, now I really do feel sorry for Muzi. He's gotta shower in the dark and pitch black. How nice!"

"Damn it, Old He, you stupid dog, I heard that. I'm gonna kill you in a bit!" Jiang Muye roared furiously from the bathroom.

But Old He was laughing gleefully on his bed: "Alright, I'll be waiting, waiting."

Jiang Muye decided he'd let Old He cool off in a bit.

But right now the pressing matter was solving this tricky problem—how was he supposed to shower in this darkness?

Jiang Muye asked the System: What should he do now? Did it have a solution?

The System: 【Very easy to solve, Host. You can enter the System Shop and use Grit Points to buy an All-Purpose Power Bank. It can power anything, full charge in a second. No need to worry about a power outage.】

Jiang Muye laid eyes on it—the All-Purpose Power Bank cost two hundred Grit Points.

He happened to have just enough.

So Jiang Muye directly exchanged for the All-Purpose Power Bank.

The moment he exchanged it, Jiang Muye got the skill.

Following the System's operation instructions, the light bulb soon lit up again.

The room was filled with light.

Whoa, six.

Jiang Muye was overjoyed. It really was a good item.

What did he have to worry about lights-out for? The dorm auntie probably couldn't even imagine he had a trick like this.

Jiang Muye showered comfortably right there in the dorm.

It was just that halfway through the hot water, there was no more hot water, and Jiang Muye let out a whoa.

Had these animals used up all the water heater's hot water?
