Chapter 5: Chapter 5: Who Hasn't Been a Bootlicker Before?



It wasn't that he didn't want to properly experience the joys of student life again.

It was because his family situation was like being flanked by wolves at the front and tigers at the back.

With people eyeing his family's money greedily at the front and Yao Mingyue always ready to be his sugar mama at the back.

If he didn't work hard, he would end up being kept by a rich woman...

Such a bother.

At this moment, his phone on the desk rang.

Xu Musen picked up the phone and saw that it was from He Qiang.

He Qiang, "Finished eating?"

Xu Musen, "Have you dealt with your stuff?"

Xu Musen still remembered this guy's departing back, changing his face even faster than him.

He Qiang also seemed a bit embarrassed, "Nonsense, I always feel you don't have any good farts. Are you really short of money or just pretending?"

"Of course I'm short. If you don't lend me a hundred thousand or eighty thousand, fifty or sixty thousand would also do. I'll double it for you in my freshman year."

"Ten or eight bucks I do have, but a hundred thousand or eighty thousand? What do you take me for, a rich second generation?"

He Qiang sent over a face with a black expression.

Xu Musen actually didn't hold much hope either; after all, they were all students, hesitating for a long time before adding an egg to their instant noodles.

"Forget it, stop talking about this. Got something you want from me?"

"It's Sunday in a couple of days. If you're free, come over to my place. We're about to change the water in the fish pond, come and cast a few lines with me!"

Looking at the message he sent, Xu Musen actually smiled a little.

He knew about Xu Musen's family situation.

Every other Sunday, he would use the excuse of changing the water in his fish pond to have Xu Musen join him in fishing, which was actually just an excuse to let him bring home a couple of fish for an extra dish.

The care between buddies during school, unadulterated by any self-interest, can be said to be the purest.

Xu Musen didn't put on airs and replied with a simple "OK".

Back to the chat main screen.

A chat box highlighted in a darker color jumped into view.

Yao Mingyue.

Xu Musen opened the chat box.

He saw that the chat history was almost entirely messages sent by him.

Good morning and good night were daily necessities.

Reminding her to put on more clothes and to carry an umbrella when it's windy or raining was something he would never forget.

Birthday and holiday greetings were so cheesy they made people cringe...

Xu Musen just quickly scanned a few of these cheesier pieces.

"Xiaoyue, you know how I feel. The only girl I've ever been smitten with since childhood is you.

I know you may not be able to accept me now, but I just want you to understand my intentions.

Because I love you, and it has nothing to do with you."

"Xiaoyue, it's so cold today, remember to wear more clothes. Do you know why I caught a cold?

It's not because of the chill, it's because I lose all resistance when I see you..."

There were one or two times when Xu Musen felt so wronged, as if he was at his wit's end.

"Yao Mingyue! If you keep not replying to my messages, I will... really stop liking you."

"If you still care about me even a little, tell me right now!

I'm only giving you three more minutes!"

However, once the three minutes were up, Yao Mingyue still hadn't replied to his messages.

Xu Musen, "Hehe, just now I was possessed by a ghost, Xiaoyueyue, may I bring you a cake to eat tomorrow, okay?"

"..."

Xu Musen felt as if ants were crawling all over him!

Help!

Those affected and pretentious words, which part of his body did he use to type them out?

He decisively canceled the sticky pin and cleared the chat history.

Actually, he wanted to block her outright.

But the two families were only about a hundred meters apart, and sometimes they visited each other.

Yao Mingyue was a little sadist.

But her mother was an intelligent and elegant mature woman whose company Xu Musen quite enjoyed, as if she was his mother-in-law from the past.

Considering the ties between their families, Xu Musen reluctantly didn't block her, especially since he was the one who always initiated messages anyway.

Yao Mingyue had always been cold with her replies of "Hmm, yeah, oh."—the three-word truth.

Xu Musen took another look at his Qzone profile, and the signature was even more impactful.

[Girl, I'm just one kiss away from being certain.]

He flipped through his journal and Moments.

Every line was more outrageous than the last.

Xu Musen suddenly had a feeling, fortunately Yao Mingyue was kind of a tsundere.

If it was any other girl, she would've been disgusted by now.

In a sense, the two of them were indeed an odd but perfect match...

NO!!!

Xu Musen hurriedly shook that terrifying thought from his mind and locked down those embarrassing posts.

...

Meanwhile, Yao Mingyue was itching with curiosity.

She sat at the dining table, in front of her a sumptuous dinner prepared by the housekeeper.

But she didn't have the appetite to pick up even a single chopstick.

She kept an eye on the messaging app on her phone, but there wasn't a single new message for her.

Thinking back to Xu Musen's sudden change that afternoon, the always confident Ming Yue felt extremely frustrated.

Just a moment ago he was holding flowers and confessing to her, why did he suddenly change like he was a different person the next?

It felt like a pet she had raised for years suddenly wanted to run away from home!

She picked up her phone again and looked at it, she had read the chat history countless times.

Even though she always acted aloof, she took screenshots of every lengthy message Xu Musen sent and stored them in her album.

She even planned to print them into a book.

So that in the future, after they got married, she would have him read them to her every night!

Yao Mingyue subconsciously revealed a slightly manic smile, but as soon as she saw that the last message was still his morning greeting, her expression darkened once again.

This was the first time she felt a bit unsure about what Xu Musen was really thinking.

She opened the chat window, wanting to question him.

But just after typing one character, she clenched her teeth and deleted it.

She wanted to see how long this guy could hold out!

Just as she thought this, a message popped up in the class group chat.

Lu Guoguan: "I think what Xu Musen said today was really harsh. Even if they end up together, and Xu Musen turns into a dog, doesn't that make Yao Mingyue..."

Pu Guochang: "Hahaha, just wait and see. If those two are really over, I'll livestream myself doing a handstand while washing my hair!"

Ai Kan Pian: "With Xu Musen not chasing after her any longer, Lu Guoguan, doesn't that give you a chance to pursue Yao Mingyue?"

Their chat messages were abrupt and disjointed.

But it was clear that the information they conveyed was explosive!

"666"

"Epic!"

"@Xu Musen."

The group immediately burst into a series of expressive emojis, all of them commenting that the duo truly had guts, and some even started goading Xu Musen.

Yao Mingyue's face turned icy, her glare even holding a trace of murderous intent.

Just then, one of the subjects of the conversation, Xu Musen, sent a "?"

Lu Guoguan: "Shit! I posted in the wrong group. Take it back!"

After sending the message, he immediately retracted it, along with the messages above it. Then, the three of them started to play dead.

The chat quieted down for a moment.

Yao Mingyue's heart was filled with fury. She was not annoyed by these people gossiping.

It was Xu Musen who infuriated her, always watching his phone and yet choosing not to message her!

She gripped her phone tightly, her eyes narrowing, and then she opened the chat window.

The classmates in their group chat were each consumed with their own thoughts.

Especially Lu Guoguan and Pu Guochang, who were silently praying that Yao Mingyue hadn't seen the messages they'd just sent.

But a second later, right below the question mark sent by Xu Musen.

Yao Mingyue: "?"

The group suddenly fell silent.

But the mutterings in everyone's minds grew even louder.

Ming Yue's usual aloofness meant she never posted any messages in the class group.

This was the first time she actively sent a message in the group.

And it was quite clear she was directly responding to Xu Musen.

Looking at the two question marks, one after the other, the onlookers felt a buzz of gossip stirring.

These two, it wasn't over between them!
