"I'm not going to pursue her anymore. I've wasted enough time on her. I don't want to be a simp anymore. Simps always end up with nothing. How many six-year periods does one have in a lifetime?"
Xiao Zhebin nodded in agreement, "If Sun Qing really liked you, why would she have tormented you for so many years? She would have agreed to be your girlfriend long ago. You confessed to her no less than ten times during your three years of college, and you failed every time. You're quite persistent, kid. I really admire you for sticking to it for so long."
"You should have given up long ago. Sun Qing's heart isn't with you. What's the point of giving more? It's just a waste of time. Why make things difficult for yourself? It's not worth it at all. With your looks alone, there are plenty of girls chasing after you."
"I'm not bragging, but if you spread the word today that you're single again, you'll have beautiful girls writing you love letters tomorrow. Do you believe me?"
Chu Jiangyi rolled her eyes at Xiao Zhebin, "I've always been single, okay? I've never been in a relationship."
Xiao Zhebin realized he had said the wrong thing and scratched his head. "Your whole heart is with Sun Qing, and you can't pull her back no matter what. Even if other girls want to pursue you, they don't know where to start. So what if you're single? But what you've done has made girls who like you hesitate."
"What idiot would confess his love ten times in three years and fail every time? You're the only one who can do that, you're such a hopeless romantic!"
Chu Jiang frowned. "Was I really that stupid before?"
Xiao Zhebin showed him no mercy, "He's not just stupid, he's downright an idiot. He's done a lot of work for nothing and spent a lot of money. Luckily, your family is well-off and you don't care about a little money. Otherwise, my wallet wouldn't be able to keep up."
Chu Jiang sighed, "Even so, Sun Qing still looks down on me because I'm poor."
Xiao Zhebin stared wide-eyed in disbelief, pointing at Chu Jiangyi, "If someone like you is considered poor, then I must be a beggar."
Chu Jiang shrugged. "I didn't say that, but in Sun Qing's eyes you're not even as good as a beggar."
Xiao Zhebin took a deep breath and made a gesture to suppress his anger. "Sun Qing is no better than me. Her family background is about the same as mine. What are you pretending for? When you look down on others, you should consider your own situation."
"So what if a few rich kids are chasing after her? She acts all high and mighty, like she's some kind of upper class. Pah! Those rich kids just want to play around with her, and she's practically throwing herself at them. It's an eyesore."
"So what if she hooks up with those rich second-generation guys? Will they marry her properly? The answer is no. She'll just play around for a few years and then dump them when she gets old and loses her looks. She thinks she's something special and looks down on everyone."
“I guarantee you, you made the right decision to leave that gold digger. I saw her going into a fancy restaurant with that rich second-generation law student the other day.”
"Is that so? Why didn't you say so?"
Xiao Zhebin said helplessly, "I also want to say it, but you're so worried about Sun Qing that you can't eat or sleep. If I tell you that she's having an affair, it will only upset you. Why bother exposing her?"
"I was blinded by greed, I actually liked this stuff for six years, what a waste of my youth!"
Xiao Zhebin patted Chu Jiangyi on the shoulder, "It's not too late to pull back from the brink. If you're still someone's backup when you're over thirty, even I will look down on you."
Chu Jiang nodded in agreement, "Yes, there's still time."
Xiao Zhebin glanced at Chu Jiangyi suspiciously. Just a few days ago, he had specially dragged Chu Jiangyi along to pick out a birthday gift for Sun Qing. In just a few days, everything had changed drastically, and it felt a bit unreal.
