"What?" Zhang Zeyu looked utterly astonished, as though it was the first ti he’d heard anyone criticize him like that.
Ye Qiu’s gaze was unusually cold; neither she nor her original self ever believed Zhang Zeyu truly liked her enough to pursue her.
Everyone at A University knew Zhang Zeyu was a campus God, but he was also a playboy God. During his four undergraduate years, he’d dated six girlfriends, each being fair-skinned, beautiful, and slender junior schoolmates. Despite his heartbreak, female students hoped he would notice them, thinking they were the most special one.
Until Ye Qiu ca along, everyone thought she was the most unique one in his heart because he pursued her the longest and most patiently. Even after suffering setbacks with Ye Qiu and dating another girlfriend, they still felt that way.
But Ye Qiu knew it was just resentnt from being rejected that drove him. He was determined to win her over, without genuinely liking her.
If Zhang Zeyu truly liked her, he wouldn’t pursue other girls after failing to win her over, and then break up to chase her again. He wasn’t infatuated; he was simply a complete jerk.
Maybe it was because Ye Qiu was the only one who rejected him, making him feel intrigued. But in the eyes of A University’s female students, Ye Qiu was oblivious, leading him on without agreeing, pretending to be coy.
Especially the girl who broke up with Zhang Zeyu last, she blad Ye Qiu for the breakup, openly slandering her on the campus network, accusing her of shalessly sabotaging their relationship. In such tis, did Zhang Zeyu ever stand up to defend her? No, he didn’t.
So now, who is he showing this hurt expression for? Ye Qiu just found it disgusting.
"I said, your pursuit, Senior, has caused imnse distress, so please don’t approach again. I never want to have even the slightest relationship with you." Ye Qiu enunciated every word clearly.
"Distress? Am I not good enough? Why do you feel distressed? If there’s sothing I’m not doing well, tell , I can change!" he said, looking rather innocent.
Ye Qiu chuckled coldly in disbelief: "Fine, since you want to speak, I’ll make it clear."
"Senior knows you’re very popular in school, right?"
"I know, but that shouldn’t be considered a flaw, right?"
"Yes, it’s indeed not a flaw for you, Senior, but for soone being pursued by you, like , it is. Senior, aren’t you aware that because you pursue , I’ve beco the school enemy? Aren’t you aware of all their attempts to make things difficult for ?"
"I..."
Zhang Zeyu’s unspoken words were interrupted by Ye Qiu: "As skilled in socializing as you are, Senior, you should easily understand, right? If not, it simply ans you never truly cared about , so how can I believe in your affection?"
"I just felt it was a conflict between you girls, and I shouldn’t interfere."
"But isn’t the conflict’s cause you, Senior? I’ve made it very clear that I reject you. I haven’t done anything excessive, so why must I endure all this?"
"I’m sorry, I didn’t know you were affected so much. I wasn’t aware of your grudges. If you wish, I’ll speak to them so they don’t trouble you anymore." Zhang Zeyu apologized again, maintaining a good attitude.
Yet Ye Qiu felt increasingly disgusted: "Better not, you’ll only make them hate more, leading to increased covert retaliations."
"Is this the reason you always refuse to date ? You should know, I’m very good to my girlfriends. If you were with , they wouldn’t dare to trouble you anymore."
"But Senior, are you truly good to your girlfriends? If so, why do you date so frequently and break up so decisively?"
"Because none of them are my true love; after dating them, actually turned out very different from what I imagined."
"So, including , we’re all just your test subjects; you really are quite a jerk."
"Isn’t that correct? Love and marriage are lifeti commitnts; should I not be cautious?"
"Then it’s only right I reject you, Eldest Young Master. I’m not like you; you were born with everything, always surrounded by people who adore you, but ? I have to strive for everything myself. I can’t afford to waste ti with you or your admirers; your actions are rely experints, but for , they could ruin my entire life."
"I just wanted to date you, isn’t that overly serious?" His face gradually showed displeasure, thinking Ye Qiu was overreacting.
"Not serious? Just take one of your admirers, Xie Lizzi; because of you, she targets everywhere, even transferring to my dorm just to drive out. Because of you, she connects with my estranged foster mother, forcing to relinquish my postgraduate study qualifications, and pressures to quit pursuing my profession. You say that’s not serious?" Ye Qiu mocked him sarcastically.
Hearing Xie Lizzi’s na, Zhang Zeyu’s face turned awkward and unpleasant, clearly aware that Xie Lizzi was capable of doing such things.
"Of course, she’s just one of the reasons for her actions, but your last girlfriend maliciously sared on the campus network, almost causing to fail my graduation exams. Can you deny that too? Isn’t that serious?"
"I’m sorry, I didn’t know they could do such outrageous things," Zhang Zeyu apologized again, deflated, "Why didn’t you tell earlier?"
"No, you knew, you don’t have to pretend before . Don’t you enjoy being adored by others? Tell you, only to fall right into your trap? Isn’t your plan to make suffer enough to seek your help, so you can heal my fragile heart and openly beco my boyfriend? Prove you’re not lacking charm?" Ye Qiu retorted mockingly.
Zhang Zeyu looked at her with a sad expression in his eyes: "Is that really how you see ?"
"Yes." Ye Qiu answered without any hesitation.
"So you want absolutely no association with ?"
"That’s right."
"Okay, since you think so, the one who’s caused you trouble will not bother you again. Will that do?"
"Thank you! Now that we’ve cleared things up, let’s never et again."
Zhang Zeyu watched her walk away, constantly questioning himself silently, was he really a jerk?
He didn’t want to admit it, yet couldn’t refute Ye Qiu’s words. He rembered Xie Lizzi and Mu Xue.
