Quick Transmigration: Drama Queen's Daily Life

Chapter 1230 - 1219: Not One to Be Aggrieved

"What?" Zhang Zeyu looked utterly astonished, as though it was the first time 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 came 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 resentment 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 blamed Ye Qiu for the breakup, openly slandering her on the campus network, accusing her of shamelessly sabotaging their relationship. In such times, 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 me immense distress, so please don’t approach me 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 something I’m not doing well, tell me, I can change!" he said, looking rather innocent.

Ye Qiu chuckled coldly in disbelief: "Fine, since you want me 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 someone being pursued by you, like me, it is. Senior, aren’t you aware that because you pursue me, I’ve become the school enemy? Aren’t you aware of all their attempts to make things difficult for me?"

"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 means you never truly cared about me, 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 me more, leading to increased covert retaliations."

"Is this the reason you always refuse to date me? You should know, I’m very good to my girlfriends. If you were with me, 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 me, we’re all just your test subjects; you really are quite a jerk."

"Isn’t that correct? Love and marriage are lifetime commitments; 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 me? I have to strive for everything myself. I can’t afford to waste time with you or your admirers; your actions are merely experiments, but for me, 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 me everywhere, even transferring to my dorm just to drive me out. Because of you, she connects with my estranged foster mother, forcing me to relinquish my postgraduate study qualifications, and pressures me to quit pursuing my profession. You say that’s not serious?" Ye Qiu mocked him sarcastically.

Hearing Xie Lizzi’s name, 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 smeared me on the campus network, almost causing me 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 me earlier?"

"No, you knew, you don’t have to pretend before me. Don’t you enjoy being adored by others? Tell you, only to fall right into your trap? Isn’t your plan to make me suffer enough to seek your help, so you can heal my fragile heart and openly become 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 me?"

"Yes." Ye Qiu answered without any hesitation.

"So you want absolutely no association with me?"

"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 meet 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 remembered Xie Lizzi and Mu Xue.
