Chapter 6 "Then you must also know" "She likes you."...
The last time she was this embarrassed was when Gu Zeming caught her and her ex-boyfriend in the teaching building.
After Jiang Chuyu called him "senior," she didn't know what else to say.
But then again, how come Gu Zeming always seems to run into these kinds of things? Could he be the legendary "widow king" type? And his self-control is truly remarkable; he even went so far as to close the door for the person who was doing it.
Unlike her, who would just cover her eyes and then run away.
Jiang Chuyu secretly observed the man in front of her, and the more she looked at him, the more interesting she found him.
Maybe she's quite innocent.
Thinking of this, Jiang Chuyu felt a sense of responsibility welling up inside her.
Gu Zeming has never been in a relationship before, so she will be gentler and more patient with him in the future.
Lost in her fantasy, Jiang Chuyu was completely unaware that her so-called innocent senior was scrutinizing her with a strange and quiet gaze.
Seeing her go from nervous to dejected to her eyes shining with excitement, Gu Zeming finally spoke up.
"They're gone."
"Go...what?" Jiang Chuyu came to her senses, her almond-shaped eyes filled with confusion.
"Do you want to keep watching?"
"Huh? No!"
Jiang Chuyu doesn't crave everything she sees; she has her limits.
Suppressing her restlessness, she followed Gu Zeming back to the living room.
The two tacitly avoided mentioning the matter again.
In the afternoon, the sunlight outside the window was blindingly white, and the hum of the central air conditioning was like a hypnotist's pocket watch, gradually eroding one's consciousness.
Gu Zeming sat down on the sofa.
He was probably a little tired, his whole body languid and relaxed after being intoxicated by alcohol. He didn't say anything, just leaned back on the sofa and closed his eyes to rest.
There was no one around, except for occasional bursts of laughter from the card room and the media room.
Jiang Chuyu's gaze unconsciously drifted to Gu Zeming again.
He has a cool and aloof appearance, with prominent brow bones, narrow eyes, a high nose bridge, and thin, light pink lips. I don't know if they're soft or not, but they look perfect for kissing.
Jiang Chuyu took a small step forward.
My gaze slowly moved down from his slightly raised, well-defined jawline, across his prominent Adam's apple, and finally slipped into his shirt collar, staring at his exposed collarbone and a small patch of chest.
Damn it, when will this eyesore of a shirt learn to disappear on its own?
She wanted to see him in sportswear, she wanted to see his abs...
Also, a strong and narrow waist.
That's all she cares about when it comes to men, and now a shirt has ruined it all.
Jiang Chuyu mustered her courage and took another step forward.
At this moment, Gu Zeming's eyelids twitched, as if he sensed something. He suddenly lifted his eyelashes and looked up at her coldly.
Jiangchu taro settled down.
I was completely dazed.
No, how did he wake up?
That's way too defensive!
Jiang Chuyu felt a heat spreading from her neck to her ears. Just as she was wondering how to explain it to him, Lin Yun pushed open the door of the card room and shouted at her, "Chuyu, come and play a few rounds for me. I'm going to the bathroom."
"Okay!"
If it can't be explained, then don't explain!
Under Gu Zeming's extremely oppressive and chilling gaze, Jiang Chuyu quickly slipped into the card room. However, due to excessive nervousness and guilt, she lost several hands in a row, losing all of Lin Yun's chips...
After the social gathering ended that evening, Lin Yun punched her: "You're amazing, you're awesome, you actually lost everything to me!"
Jiang Chuyu stuck out her tongue and chuckled sheepishly, "Sorry, I'm not very good at playing."
Lin Yun put her hands on her hips, angrily blowing on her bangs, "Jiang Chuyu, how on earth did you get into A University?"
Jiang Chuyu was silent for a while, then said seriously, "Probably because I used to be very smart."
Lin Yun: "..."
*
That evening, Jiang Chuyu returned to her dormitory and immediately did two things.
First, delete all of Lin Jiashu's contact information and messages.
A good ex should be like a dead person, never to rise from the dead.
Second, introduce more jobs to Gu Zeming.
After scouring recruitment software and job forums, and eliminating jobs that involved selling one's body, had low hourly wages, or were scams, Jiang Chuyu compiled a list of more than a dozen decent part-time jobs and sent them to Gu Zeming's email address.
Lin Yun stared at her computer screen and sneered, "You only show any signs of life when you're dating Gu Zeming."
Jiang Chuyu closed her laptop, stretched, and remained noncommittal.
In the other boys' dormitory, Gu Zeming frowned as he looked at the dozen or so job postings that had popped up like a virus.
My gaze lingered on that suspicious account, whether it belonged to a headhunter or an agent, and after hesitating for a few seconds, I ultimately decided not to block or mute it.
Although the job requirements were completely unsuitable for him, the other party was so persistent in introducing him to jobs that they must be quite eager to perform, and he couldn't be bothered to dampen anyone's enthusiasm.
When Liang Shu came out of the shower, she saw him dumping those emails into the recycle bin in bulk and teased him with a smile, "You already have three part-time jobs, how come someone is still introducing you to work every day? Maybe they've got their eye on you?"
In addition to collecting garbage, Gu Zeming also works as a pianist at a Western restaurant, a library assistant, and an online French translator.
He had previously sponsored several impoverished children in mountainous areas, one of whom was taking the college entrance examination this year. He had been working frantically recently, mainly to save up tuition and living expenses for the child.
Liang Shu sometimes wondered if he was an alien incarnate, always energetic, tireless, and methodical. This reminded him of another carbon-based life form who was always pessimistic, depressed, and listless in everything he did.
It's truly astonishing that two such drastically different people could both get into the same prestigious university.
Liang Shu shook his head, sighing and lamenting, "Lin Jiashu's ex-girlfriend seems lazy and not very smart. I really don't understand how she got into A University."
Gu Zeming was transferring the money he earned from his part-time job last month into an account when he heard this. He looked up from his computer screen and gave him a look that said, "You're an idiot." "She's lazy and pessimistic, yet she still got into the same prestigious university as you. Isn't the reason obvious enough?"
Liang Shu asked in confusion, "What do you mean?"
Gu Zeming stared at him intently, his thin lips parting slightly: "Fool, she's a hundred times smarter than you."
Liang Shu was stunned by the scolding.
No, buddy?
Who exactly is your roommate?
After a social gathering, they start siding with outsiders. Where is their morality? Where is their bottom line?
Feeling aggrieved, Liang Shu glared at Gu Zeming before opening WeChat to complain to the girl she had just added that day.
Counting: [Waaaaah, sister, my roommate insulted me!]
Caiyan almost laughed herself to death when she saw the message.
I won against a big, muscular older boy while playing dice today, and he promised to call me "sister" for a month.
The thought of a 188cm tall, muscular science guy crying and calling her "sister" on the other side of the screen made Caiyan feel incredibly happy.
Swallow: [What did he say to you?]
Counting: [He called me stupid.]
Swallow: [Hahaha, I wanted to stand up for you too, but he's telling the truth.]
Count: [...]
Liang Shu stared at his phone screen, once again feeling deeply hurt.
He took a deep breath and replied with a forced smile: "Our college is having a model airplane exhibition next week, are you coming?"
Swallow: [What day of the week is it?]
Number of beams: [Saturday.]
Yanzi: [Great! It's JJ Lin's concert that day, and I managed to snag tickets!]
Liang Shu threw his phone aside, lay back on the bed, and stared at the ceiling.
At that moment, he suddenly felt that the air in their dormitory was toxic, otherwise how could none of the four of them have girlfriends yet?
That's incredibly toxic!
Liang was indignant, depressed, and resentful.
He couldn't help but glance at Gu Zeming.
As long as this person exists, as long as Gu Zeming doesn't have a girlfriend, those girls will never see other high-quality men around Gu Zeming.
For example, Liang Shu.
For the sake of her future happiness, Liang Shu decided to urge Gu Zeming on.
"I said, there were so many girls at the social event today, didn't you like any of them?" He sat up in bed, thinking carefully. "Meng Xiang, Wei Xue, and a few pretty junior girls, all of them have great personalities, and then there's Lin Jiashu's scumbag ex-girlfriend Jiang Chuyu, her personality is awful, but she's quite pretty..."
Gu Zeming remained unmoved when the first few names were mentioned, until he heard the name "Jiang Chuyu," at which point he raised his eyes.
Liang Shu cursed himself a thousand times in his heart.
Although it was pitiful for the junior to have just broken up with his girlfriend, Gu Zeming seemed quite interested in that junior girl "Jiang Chuyu".
For the sake of the happiness of all men, it wouldn't hurt to let Gu Zeming play the role of Cao Cao for once.
Furthermore, Gu Zeming appears aloof and unapproachable on the outside, but is actually incredibly cunning and manipulative on the inside. Jiang Chuyu seems innocent and harmless, but is actually quite cold and calculating, like a scumbag. Liang Shu really wants to see who will emerge victorious if these two team up!
In order to help Gu Zeming find a girlfriend, he didn't really flirt with any girls today; he was busy asking around about Jiang Chuyu.
Liang Shu coughed lightly, then casually remarked, "Today at the card table, I overheard a lot about junior Jiang Chuyu..."
Gu Zeming narrowed his eyes, didn't say anything, just stared at him coldly, patiently waiting for him to speak.
Liang Shu didn't keep anyone in suspense and went on to describe Jiang Chuyu's family background, studies, interpersonal relationships, and hobbies one by one. Half of it was hearsay, and half of it was true.
for example:
"Her parents are both business people and are very wealthy. She has a younger brother who is in his first year of high school. Her parents divorced two years ago. Her brother stayed with her mother, but she stayed with neither of them and rented a place to live alone. Her parents transfer a large sum of money to her every month for living expenses, but she has low material desires and rarely buys luxury goods."
For example:
"During her two years at school, she never participated in any clubs or organizations, and her grades were at the bottom of the class. Fortunately, she didn't fail many courses, so the teachers and counselors turned a blind eye to her and treated her like she was invisible."
"Interpersonal relationships are relatively simple. I have almost no friends at University A except for my roommates."
Even though she chose two elective courses this semester—French and Mental Health Education—and her only hobby was taking naps in the air-conditioned school library, she still couldn't escape being criticized.
Soon, the image of a lazy, slightly wealthy, cold-hearted, and mentally ill young rich woman gradually took shape in Gu Zeming's mind. He interrupted Liang Shu, "I know all of that. Tell me something I don't know."
Liang was speechless for a moment, looking at him in disbelief.
No, buddy?
You knew all of this?
So you had your eye on her while she was dating Lin Jiashu?
Liang Shu paused for a few seconds, then said in a cheeky tone, "Then you must know too."
She likes you.
