Chapter 126 I Don't Like You

Lu Yinzhao was running slowly on the track.

Song Shuye and the other two went to buy water.

Don't think he didn't know; these three were trying to slack off under the pretext of buying water.

Why would you need three people to go together just to buy some water?

It was only the first day, so Lu Yinzhao didn't make any demands on them. He told them to rest if they were tired.

However, this did not meet Lu Yinzhao's own standards. He still had some energy left and could at least jog five more laps.

As he ran, he noticed a figure catching up to him, running alongside him.

"Junior Brother Lu, long time no see." Ge Yinghao gave what he considered a perfect smile, and tried to keep some distance from Lu Yinzhao, as if to suggest that they had just met by chance.

Lu Yinzhao was somewhat stunned. Ge Yinghao's appearance at this moment reminded Lu Yinzhao of something.

He also needs to find time to write a resignation application.

Ge Yinghao hadn't been trying to curry favor with him lately, and he had almost forgotten about it.

Seeing that the other person did nothing special except jog with him, Lu Yinzhao relaxed his expression.

"Senior Ge, what's up now?" Lu Yinzhao asked directly.

"Junior Lu, have you been very busy lately? I haven't seen you at the swimming pool at all," Ge Yinghao asked in return.

"Yes, I'm very busy," Lu Yinzhao replied affirmatively.

He completely killed the conversation, so Ge ​​Yinghao didn't know how to continue the topic.

"I heard that you received an award during military training, and many freshmen know you now. Some people even came to our swimming association to ask about you. There aren't as many restrictions in college as in high school. Don't you want to have a relationship during college, Lu?"

"Dating? With you?" After listening to Ge Yinghao beat around the bush for so long without getting to the point, Lu Yinzhao simply exposed his thoughts.

Ge Yinghao paused slightly, composed himself, and revealed his admiration for Lu Yinzhao on his face. "Junior Lu, would you like to be my boyfriend? I really like you."

Lu Yinzhao stopped and casually wiped the sweat from his face.

He had already seen his roommates approaching from not far away. As they drew nearer, he solemnly addressed Ge Yinghao, saying, "I'm sorry, I don't like you and I won't be your boyfriend. Senior, you should find someone else to pursue."

The boy's tone was resolute, his face clearly saying, "You want to pursue me? No way."

When Song Shuye and his group arrived and saw this shocking scene, they all took a deep breath.

At this moment, quite a few people on the playground were already looking in Lu Yinzhao's direction.

Because when Lu Yinzhao rejected the confession, he didn't lower his voice.

He thought, with so many witnesses watching, surely Ge Yinghao wouldn't still shamelessly stick to him?

Lu Yinzhao dislikes ambiguity, especially when it comes to matters of the heart, where she is particularly decisive.

If you don't like something, you don't like it. If you're going to refuse, you should refuse decisively. Don't give people hope or let them have unrealistic fantasies. That's not good for either yourself or others.

Ge Yinghao's expression suddenly turned cold. He felt both ashamed and embarrassed, but the gentle and cheerful demeanor he usually maintained in front of others did not allow him to break his persona at this moment.

He only wore a cold expression for a second before his smile returned.

"I know you'll reject me if I tell you this now, but Junior Lu, why don't you give me a chance to pursue you? We haven't even had time to get to know each other, so naturally you won't have any feelings for me. I..."

“There’s no need for that.” Lu Yinzhao interrupted Ge Yinghao, still firmly stating, “You’re not my type. No matter how good you are, I will never like you.”

His words were somewhat direct, but he really couldn't leave things unsaid.

Let alone Lu Yinzhao not having any thoughts about dating at this stage, even if he did, Ge Yinghao would definitely not be on his shortlist. Before he clearly wants to be in a relationship, Lu Yinzhao will not accept anyone's confession casually.

Seeing that things were not going well, Song Shuye and the others quickly stepped forward and stood with Lu Yinzhao.

"Xiao Lu, I've bought the water." Xu Zishi handed a bottle of mineral water to Lu Yinzhao.

The interruptions from these people eased the somewhat awkward and cold atmosphere a little.

Song Shuye stared at Ge Yinghao with a half-smile. "So it's Senior Ge. I'm your direct junior, Song Shuye. Hello, hello."

Song Shuye, being a tough guy, grabbed Ge Yinghao's hand and shook it vigorously, thus blocking Ge Yinghao's ambiguous gaze towards Lu Yinzhao.

"Hmm, hello, so you're Lu's roommate." Ge Yinghao was so flustered by the sudden appearance of these people that he forgot what he was going to say.

“Senior, my roommate is a stubborn person. He said he doesn’t like you, so you probably have no chance. But don’t be discouraged. Besides Lu Yinzhao, I know other handsome freshmen who I can introduce to you.” Song Shuye hooked his arm around Ge Yinghao’s neck and put his arm around Ge Yinghao’s shoulder, acting like they were old friends.

“No need…” Ge Yinghao’s lips twitched, feeling extremely disgusted with the hand resting on his arm.

He had seen everyone throughout his freshman year, and none of them could compare to Lu Yinzhao.

Ge Yinghao has very high standards when it comes to choosing a partner; if someone doesn't suit his taste, he won't even touch them.

Lu Yinzhao's face perfectly suited his taste in every way.

Now that the other party has publicly rejected him, showing him no respect whatsoever, Ge Yinghao wants this person even more.

The more unattainable something is, the stronger his desire becomes.

"If you don't want it, fine... then, Senior Ge, we'll head over first. You can run around here at your own pace."

Song Shuye waved his hand, then turned and pulled Lu Yinzhao and the others away from the playground.

Ge Yinghao stood alone on the track, his gaze gradually twisting as he looked at the boy's back in the distance, his fingers slowly clenching into a fist.

...

Back in the dorm.

The four of them first sat down and drank a few mouthfuls of water before they started complaining.

"Xiao Lu, didn't you offend him by rejecting him in public like that today?" Xu Zishi put down his water glass and looked up at Lu Yinzhao's expression.

"So what if he offends me? We're not even in the same profession. What can he do to me?" Lu Yinzhao said nonchalantly.

"Exactly! He's not much of a figure, is he? Although he holds positions in the student council and various associations, that doesn't change the fact that Lu Yinzhao doesn't like him!"

Song Shuye found today's events quite exciting. Although he was just watching the show, his heart was definitely on Lu Yinzhao's side.

Song Shuye grabbed a handful of melon seeds and continued eating them as he spoke, "If this person hadn't shown up today, I would have forgotten to tell you about what I had been asking about before."

"What is it?" Lu Yinzhao didn't react for a moment.

"It's about all that mess with Ge Yinghao... On the surface, he's a pretty decent guy. He's quite generous to his friends and people in the gang. I heard his family owns a company and is quite wealthy."

"..."

"However, he has a rich romantic history. From what I've heard, he's already had four relationships since entering university, and each one lasted no more than six months."

At this point in Song Shuye's speech, Jiang Yi interjected, "Hiss, he's a junior this year, isn't that a seamless transition? A new romantic partner every semester, changing so frequently!"

"And I also heard that he likes good-looking women. Some of his exes were from this school, and some were from the art colleges of other schools. They were all quite good-looking."

“So… now we’re turning our attention to Xiaolu, Xiaolu is so pretty,” Xu Zishi said.

"Yeah, when Ge Yinghao met Lu Yinzhao, a freshman, he probably thought he had it all in the bag. But he didn't expect our little Lu to be so unmoved. Today should be his Waterloo in his love life." Song Shuye sneered.

“I’m not interested in his affairs. Let him talk about as many women as he wants, just don’t bother me. I don’t have a good impression of him,” Lu Yinzhao said coldly.

“Xiao Lu, if he bothers you again, just call us over. I’ve noticed he’s a real actor; he won’t dare do anything in front of outsiders,” Jiang Yi said.

"Yes, thank you." Lu Yinzhao smiled.

"Hey, no need to thank me! We're all brothers!"

That night, Lu Yinzhao lay on her bed in the dormitory, hesitating whether or not to tell Bian Ji about what had happened that day.

But then he thought about how busy Bian Ji had been lately, and that he might not like to hear him complain about all this nonsense.

Lu Yinzhao still felt unlucky about Bian Jitige Yinghao's shady tactics.

After thinking for a while, Lu Yinzhao turned off his phone, said nothing, closed his eyes, and quickly fell asleep.

The next day, he wrote his application to withdraw from the swimming association and submitted it directly to the association's office.

When he entered, the office was empty, so Lu Yinzhao placed the application on the table and also sent a separate message to the president.

He stated that due to personal reasons, he did not have time to participate in the swimming association's activities, and therefore applied to withdraw.

After sending the message, there was no reply. The other party was probably at the swimming pool and didn't check their phone. Lu Yinzhao didn't care about the rest and left the office directly.

In the afternoon, President Shu Han and Vice President Ge Yinghao walked into the office together.

Ge Yinghao immediately noticed the three large characters "Lu Yinzhao" on the resignation application.

The paper lay right in the center of the table, with the name deliberately written in large letters, as if afraid that others wouldn't know that Lu Yinzhao was leaving the club.

Ge Yinghao clenched the letter in his hand, his heart churning with emotions.

"Lu Yinzhao... he's actually going to quit the swimming association?"

This junior is really stubborn...

He didn't say anything when I rejected his confession yesterday, but today I deliberately quit the club. Is this a way of provoking him?

Does Lu Yinzhao really not want to be associated with me?

In that instant, Ge Yinghao felt a deep displeasure, even extreme anger.

"Oh, I know that. He texted me. Sigh, I was thinking of inviting him to participate in this semester's campus challenge. It's a pity that our club has lost another great freshman."

Lu Yinzhao isn't the only one who left the company recently.

Many freshmen joined the swimming club on a whim, only to find that they couldn't handle certain tasks or couldn't check in as required, which made them want to give up.

However, Lu Yinzhao is currently the strongest among the freshmen who have left the club, so Shu Han naturally felt regretful.

"Shu Han, the swimming association can't just let freshmen join and leave as they please. We need to set rules. As the president, you have every right to reject this application."

Ge Yinghao's serious expression surprised Shu Han slightly.

"Rejected? You mean you're trying to force him to stay?"
