Living Only For Myself: Make Those Who Hate Me Regret It Chapter 235: How Many Guys With These Qualities Can There Be
She was wearing what looked like her school uniform. A pretty girl, apparently troubled by love, was telling everyone in the group about her romantic woes.
It was the weekend, so quite a few people were online in the group, chiming in one after another to comfort her.
Xu Su glanced at the chat but didn’t pay it much mind, focusing instead on grinding mobs to level up.
She only got to play for a little over two hours on weekend nights, so making every second count for leveling was the top priority.
With her master’s one-on-one guidance, she was far more efficient than when she was fumbling around on her own. Her level rose incredibly fast; she had logged on at seven, and in less than two hours, she’d gone from level ten to thirteen.
..becoming a little newbie in the second layer of Qi Refinent. She was very content.
She felt endlessly grateful to this high-level master, Nanyang, who was still a stranger to her!
She felt that the day she could fly through the skies and burrow through the earth was just around the corner. Sooner or later, she would beco one of the "greats" that players talked about on the official forums and finally redeem herself!
Having already surpassed her goal for the day, Xu Su glanced at the ti, planning to get to bed early. After thanking Master Nanyang, she was just about to log off when she saw soone @ her in the group chat.
Liu Yun: "I rember Nanyang’s disciple, ’@Little Susu,’ is also a high school student, and she has a boyfriend. Sika, you could ask her for so tips."
Sika: "Susu, you have a boyfriend? Between you and him, who confessed first? Quick, teach your ways!"
Xu Su froze, confused as to how the topic had suddenly shifted to her. She quickly grabbed her mouse and scrolled up to read the chat history.
The ssages above were long paragraphs of Sika pouring her heart out. Xu Su skimd through it all in less than two minutes.
The gist of it was that she liked a boy at her school, and they had been classmates since junior high.
He was exceptional and aloof, and she had been pursuing him, both openly and subtly, for a long ti, but the boy remained indifferent. The blow she’d received today must have been too much to bear, and she couldn’t stop herself from running to the group chat to vent to her online friends.
As the group’s darling and a pretty younger mber, everyone was happy to indulge her. However, they all admitted they had graduated from high school years ago and had no idea how to woo that kind of cold, aloof, seventeen or eighteen-year-old campus god.
That’s when You Shan Taoist and a few others rembered Xu Su, who was also a high school senior and had a boyfriend, leading Liu Yun to specifically @ her.
In the ti it took Xu Su to read the chat history, several more people had chid in to @ her, urging her to co out and "teach a class"...
She didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. ’Since he’s a seventeen or eighteen-year-old campus god... it definitely can’t be Zhou Mochen.’
Xu Su thought of Xi Zirong. After hesitating for a few seconds, her fingers tapped the keyboard. "He confessed first."
Sika: "Can you tell how your boyfriend won you over? I want to take notes."
Xu Su felt a headache coming on. She didn’t actually like discussing her private life with people, but the atmosphere in the Qingxuan Sect was genuinely great, and everyone in the elite group chat was so enthusiastic. She didn’t want to be unsociable...
She thought for a mont. ’Describing Zhou Mochen’s pursuit thods would definitely lead Sika astray. But as for Xi Zirong...’
Little Susu: "How are your grades? You could try offering to tutor him."
The few college students and office workers in the group were amused, all remarking that high school romance was indeed so pure and simple.
Sika sent a blushing emoji: "....He’s first in our grade, and I’m a hundredth... If anyone’s doing any tutoring, it should be him tutoring ..."
"....." Xu Su found that a little funny too. "How about you try asking him for help with a few difficult problems?"
This made her think of how girls used to pursue Xi Zirong; it seed they all used asking for help with difficult problems as an excuse to strike up a conversation with him.
Sika: "That thod won’t work. A lot of girls in our grade used to go ask him about problems, so now he doesn’t explain them to anyone anymore."
Xu Su felt she was out of ideas...
Suddenly, Beiyue, who rarely joined the idle chatter, spoke up: "Look, Sika, you’re just too young and haven’t seen enough handso guys. Once you get to college, you’ll realize that so-called ’campus god’ of yours from high school is just a regular guy."
Master Nanyang imdiately followed up: "That’s right, that’s right! Sika, co to Beijing for college. We’ll have an offline etup, and you can see our leader’s face in person. Then you’ll know what a real heartthrob is."
Her ti spent lurking in the group chat wasn’t for nothing. Xu Su knew that the four Elders of the Qingxuan Sect and the Sect Leader, Si Xuan, were all college classmates in real life. They were all university students with plenty of ti to be online playing the ga, though they had never ntioned which university they attended.
Quite a few people in the elite group chat had been to an offline etup. As soon as Nanyang spoke, a dozen ssages instantly popped up in agreent, all clearly vouching for Sect Leader Si Xuan’s good looks.
Seeing others dismiss her idol, Sika wasn’t having it. "Don’t look down on my high school! It’s the number one private academy in the Magic Capital, you know. I’m serious, I’ve seen tons of handso guys, and I’ve toured several universities, but I’ve never t a guy more exceptional or better-looking than him!"
After this fangirl declaration, she quickly posted a photo.
The background of the photo was a classroom lectern. A boy in a black baseball jacket, unsuited for the current season, was holding a piece of chalk. The blackboard behind him was covered in densely packed steps for solving a problem. He was half-turned toward the cara, apparently in the middle of explaining sothing.
The photo was likely taken surreptitiously; it was a bit blurry and shot from an odd angle. But even as blurry as it was, you could still make out the clean lines of the boy’s profile, his straight shoulders and back, and his tall, long-legged fra...
Sika: "Handso, right? He’s also number one in our senior class. How many guys in college can even compare to him?!"
For a mont, no one in the group said anything...
After a long pause, Master Beiyue was the first to break the silence: "I thought he was just so loser who didn’t know what’s good for him. I didn’t expect him to look like *that*. With his stats, he’s definitely got the right to be picky... And while you’re a cutie too, Sika, it’s totally understandable that he’s not into you. Why don’t you just give up and find soone else to go after?"
Feifei (Alchemist): "They say that for a woman to pursue a man, there’s but a thin veil between them. But when is a truly handso guy ever lacking for female attention? Sika, that’s not a veil between you two, that’s a set of burglar bars!"
Sika: "He’s not the type of guy who judges by appearances. Our school belle tried to win him over and failed, too! And I’m no slouch either, I’m our class beauty..."
Everyone could see that Sika clearly hadn’t hit a wall yet and wouldn’t be persuaded, so for the mont, no one else tried to talk her out of it.
Liu Yun: "Then keep up the hard work! Sincerity can move mountains. You’ll win your heartthrob’s heart soday!"
Xu Su had no intention of voicing her own opinion. She glanced at the ti in the bottom-right corner of her screen—it was already ten o’clock at night. Seeing that no one in the group was paying attention to her anymore, she decisively shut down her computer and logged off.
She would much rather get to bed early and catch up on sleep than try to solve a teenage girl’s romantic problems.
She had just stood up, rubbing her sore neck, when Zhou Mochen, who was across from her, looked up. "Hungry?"
Xu Su shook her head and started walking toward the bedroom. "Not hungry. I want to go to sleep."
Zhou Mochen followed behind her and massaged her neck for a mont, reminding her, "You need to watch out for your neck in the future. Whether you’re studying or playing gas, don’t stay in the sa position for more than half an hour. Also, make sure to protect your eyesight..."
"I know, I know," Xu Su interrupted impatiently. She hated it when people nagged her.
