Chapter 116: Chapter 96: They Are the Experts!

Night.

Ever since the incident at the restaurant, Yao Mingyue hadn't shown up to bring him water or anything of the sort.

An Nuannuan, on the other hand, would still bring him mung bean soup, then stand by with her little face cradled in her hands watching Xu Musen during military training.

The classmates in their grade had almost all assumed the nature of the two's relationship.

But the jealousy of the male students towards Xu Musen had not lessened one bit.

On the school forum, the story about "Cafeteria face-off between two campus beauties vying for one man, childhood sweetheart becomes the losing dog," had spread into countless versions within a short period of time.

There were even derivations suggesting that it was the girl in the wheelchair who had injured her leg while trying to save the boy, and the boy chose to be with her out of gratitude.

Or that the boy was two-timing and decisively chose this somewhat gullible girl after being caught, to prepare for continuing his search for a new love...

In short, the stories were getting more and more outrageous.

Luckily, the school was quite large, and there was no direct naming and shaming.

But ruining his reputation every day like this wouldn't do, Xu Musen thought, sooner or later he'd blow up this campus forum.

An Nuannuan's roommates were devouring these stories with great interest, isn't this better than following a romance drama?

And one of the female leads was right beside them.

Sometimes, for the sweeter versions, they even read them aloud to An Nuannuan.

An Nuannuan, cradling her little face, would listen intently, and although she didn't show much expression, her little sandal-clad feet would involuntarily begin to fidget.

Night fell, and Xu Musen fulfilled his promise to buy her ice cream.

When he went downstairs to pick her up, he found An Nuannuan sitting in her wheelchair, looking at her phone.

Her big eyes glittering, her pink lips seemingly curved in delight.

"What are you looking at?"

Xu Musen approached. He remembered that An Nuannuan very seldom played with her phone.

"Oh... nothing much."

Once An Nuannuan saw Xu Musen's arrival, she promptly turned off her phone.

"You wanted to eat ice cream, right!"

She had been looking forward to it for a long time.

"Alright."

Xu Musen nodded and pushed An Nuannuan away.

And just as they had left, two surreptitious figures trailed behind them from the girls' dormitory building.

They were An Nuannuan's two roommates.

"They're out on a date, why are we following them?" Jiang Jinfang said somewhat exasperatedly.

"Oh come on, we're not here to disturb them, just to watch. When we get back, we can advise Nuannuan," Ge Jiayue said with a face full of gossip, pulling her along to follow.

...

The two arrived at the school's milk tea shop, and Xu Musen asked, "What flavor do you want?"

"Strawberry!"

An Nuannuan spoke up, then looked expectant, "Can I also have a cup of milk tea?"

Xu Musen looked down at her delicate little face, clean and glowing, and he seriously worried that after military training, while others would turn darker and thinner,

only An Nuannuan might end up a plumper little Xiao Xiang pig.

"No, you have to pick one."

"I want both."

"I only brought enough money for one thing."

"I'll give you money, then you treat me, okay?"

An Nuannuan indicated that money was no problem; she took out her little purse, which contained a thick stack of red banknotes.

Xu Musen quickly covered it for her.

She really didn't understand the idea of keeping wealth hidden.

The people queued up for milk tea turned their heads around curiously.

Such a beautiful girl, if she told them she wanted milk tea, likely lots of guys would happily scamper off to buy it for her. Sёarch* The ηovёlFire .net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

But here you are, letting a goddess hand you money, and then you take her money to buy milk tea for her.

Isn't that like a goddess saying, "Come out and treat me to dinner, I'll pay"?

What kind of angel is this?

There were a few guys in line buying milk tea to take to the girls.

Not only did they have to pay out of their own pocket, but they also had to wait by the girls' dorm for half a day, maybe even accommodating the girls' moods.

Like, "Didn't I say I didn't want full sugar, why didn't you buy me pearls? Didn't I say no milk cap? You don't care about me at all!"

God, the more they thought about it, the more infuriating it became!

The two roommates following behind exchanged a look and couldn't help but sigh.

An Nuannuan was too easily swayed. Spending her own money for him to woo her.

The fear was that in the future, if Xu Musen wanted to sell her, she'd still naïvely strategize for him, wondering how to make herself sell for a higher price.

In the end, Xu Musen bought her a low-sugar fruit tea, not as sweet as milk tea, but An Nuannuan was still very happy.

Shining eyes, holding an ice cream, it had been so long since her family allowed her to eat these cold things.

She stuck out her little tongue, about to lick it, but suddenly held back and offered it to Xu Musen: "You first."

"You go ahead."

Xu Musen shook his head. His adult stomach had lost interest in such sweet, cold treats long ago.

"I haven't licked it yet," An Nuannuan pouted, seemingly upset he was rejecting her offer.

Nonsense, I won't eat what you haven't licked.

Ahem, Xu Musen looked at her with that look and bit off a tiny bit from the top of the ice cream.

Indeed, the strawberry flavor was quite good.

But after eating it, Xu Musen suddenly remembered, having just eaten, might the little girl take offense?

"Nuannuan, should I buy you another one...?"

He was about to suggest.

When he saw An Nuannuan already happily licking where he had just bitten.

Suddenly her eyes closed blissfully.

"What were you saying?" An Nuannuan blinked as she asked him.

"It's nothing." Xu Musen said, pushing her towards the sports field for a stroll.
