In order to enhance the disgusting effect, Dr. Sun texted Gu Zheng before bed, "Goodnight, boyfriend."
The recipient of the message indeed felt uncomfortable all over.
That sudden feeling of aversion filled his entire body. Just like every one of his fed-up exes, nothing was different, not even the novelty wore off faster than he had imagined.
Even so, Gu Zheng still replied, "Goodnight."
After that, he felt no further desire for the relationship.
What he didn’t know was that Dr. Sun had already familiarized herself with all his thoughts and had this playboy firmly in her grasp.
After sending the message, Sun Ling went to sleep without a care in the world about having a new boyfriend.
Go eat shit, you big idiot...
The next day, to consolidate her image as the pure younger schoolmate, Xiaoling sent Gu Zheng another message at breakfast, "Shall we have lunch together today? I will come to find you."
After reading it, Gu Zheng felt some guilt but didn’t want to keep it going, so he replied, "I have an appointment at noon, but when I’m free in the afternoon, I’ll come to find you."
Xiaoling replied, "Okay then, senior, remember to miss me."
When Sun Ling sent this message, she almost disgusted herself, but she also knew, the more repulsive, the more effective.
When the assistant knocked on Gu Zheng’s office door, they found his expression hard to describe. The man who had been jubilant just a few days ago now looked like he had encountered a major headache, sticky and drenched as if after an unpleasant water splashing.
Could it be that the little fairy who was tormenting him had not withstood his offensive and been conquered by him?
"Um, Dr. Gu, the director is inviting everyone to lunch, do you have time?"
"Yes," Gu Zheng put down his phone and said.
"Okay, then I’ll let the director know. But Dr. Gu, did you fail at picking up girls?" the assistant couldn’t hold back their gossip.
"Xiaoyan, let me ask you, what would you do if you unintentionally provoked a boy who gave you a strong sense of guilt?"
"To put it simply, you pursued them, then lost interest, huh?" The assistant leaned on the door frame, "For flings or one-night stands, no reason needed, just end it if you don’t like them anymore. Adults can handle that. But when you’re dealing with someone pure and innocent, you don’t know how to deal with it, right?"
"Dr. Gu, I’m not trying to be mean, but you’re really scummy, not even sparing a little sister. Aren’t you afraid of being struck by lightning?" The assistant rolled their eyes. "She must value the relationship a lot. If you’re just going through the motions, better clear things up soon rather than letting her sink deeper."
"Can’t it just... be ignored?"
"You know, it’s funny with you playboys. At first, you chase them to the ends of the earth, and after you get them, you start being hot and cold, playing hard to get. Did they disturb your ancestors’ graves or something?" The assistant spoke disdainfully, "If you’re truly not interested in her, clear it up sooner. Have some self-awareness, will you? Do you not realize how scummy you are?"
After speaking, the assistant left Gu Zheng’s office, leaving him alone in agony.
Just yesterday, they agreed to be together, and today they’re breaking up. Isn’t that the world’s shortest relationship ever?
But indeed, Gu Zheng could not lie to himself; it was the thrill of freshness he liked.
After thinking it over, he still sent Xiaoling a message: "Xiaoling, I’ve thought about it all night, and I feel I’m not ready to be your boyfriend yet."
