I Heard That I am a HeartBreaker - Chapter 22.2

“Thank you, Junior, but I truly have no intention of entering a new relationship right now. I appreciate your help, but I don’t want to string you along or consume your sincerity.”

“I truly have no romantic feelings for you. I hope you can transfer this passion to a more deserving person or return it to yourself to become a better version of yourself.”

On the other end of the phone, Xin Zhu’s smile faded slightly. Sure enough, the person the other party could like was definitely not an ordinary person. She was so eager towards the person; any normal person would be somewhat touched, but the other party had directly rejected her.

Thinking of this, Xin Zhu felt a slight toothache. She was afraid of being eliminated, or that the other party would start a new relationship. Although the other party’s message showed her that there was no intention of starting a new relationship, she couldn’t overlook that there were people in this world who would fight and compete.

Xin Zhu never fought a battle she wasn’t prepared for. She had already done extensive research. This Senior’s love life could truly be described as rich.

There was the ex-girlfriend who went abroad, the first love whose breakup was very messy, a possessive best friend, and the competitor who lived in the same dorm as her.

Normally, Xin Zhu would avoid such a person. She didn’t really want to compete with many people. More importantly, she understood a simple truth: her core competitiveness was not enough to win against these people.

She didn’t have the wealth of that so-called best friend, nor the maturity and rationality of that other Senior, nor the pretty face of that so-called messy first love.

All she had was a sincere, loving heart, but how much of that sincerity was genuine, and who could tell?

“Senior, oh Senior, you are truly difficult to deal with…”

Under normal circumstances, Xin Zhu should give up at this stage. After all, the words have been said; any rational person should know to turn and leave, but she was precisely not a normal person.

Or rather, the obsession with obtaining Qiu Shuang was no longer an ordinary matter in Xin Zhu’s eyes; instead, it fueled her conqueror’s desire.

Her opponents were all so powerful and superior to her. If she and the Senior ended up together, wouldn’t that, in a way, indirectly prove that she was more excellent than them?

This was a despicable analogy, or perhaps a vicious custom, but no one could avoid it.

Humans are born with the psychology of destruction and possessiveness, as well as comparison and jealousy.

If the persona of the happy little puppy couldn’t win over the Senior, Xin Zhu thought she could change her persona. Honestly, she didn’t want to make it this complicated, but for the sake of ultimate victory, she could continue to endure.

She only hoped that after her victory, the Senior could bear the anger of everything she had sacrificed.

After sending the message, Qiu Shuang sighed. Indeed, formally rejecting someone was still a bit nerve-wracking. Thinking of this, she shook her head, then prepared to head to the examination hall for the test.

Qi Sijiao smiled as she sent her off, then rushed to attend her own specialized course.

Qi Sijiao’s grades were average. She didn’t have much ambition in academics; after all, she could just inherit the family business after graduation, so there was no need to strive so hard.

Therefore, among Qiu Shuang’s pursuers, Qi Sijiao was actually secretly arrogant. In her eyes, these people were truly ordinary. The one studying abroad was a pauper; otherwise, it wouldn’t be a public scholarship.

Not to mention Chen Wanjun, who was entangled with the Senior. Although she had a pretty face, she was so poor that she was working part-time.

The only one with a bit of competitiveness was Song Ya, but it was said she was an only child, her family foundation was too weak, and she couldn’t handle things. She definitely wouldn’t be allowed to come out and would certainly be used for an arranged marriage.

With this thought, Qi Sijiao instantly felt that the path of competing for the Senior was incredibly clear.

As for that Xin Zhu?

Qi Sijiao didn’t pay any attention to her, but out of respect for a competitor, she still investigated her. When she learned that the other party was also a veteran with many ex-girlfriends, Qi Sijiao almost burst out laughing.

Someone who didn’t adhere to “feminine virtue” deserved to pursue the Senior? The day she exposed the other party’s true colors to the Senior, everything the other party had done would be in vain.

Thinking this, Qi Sijiao was truly ecstatic. She thought she shouldn’t rush to expose it. She had to wait until the other party had done everything, thought she had successfully won over the Senior, and then she would tell her all those things.

This would not only let the Senior completely see the other party’s true face but also fiercely slap the other party in the face.

Dare to be her romantic rival? This was the deserved retribution. And those two people—don’t think she didn’t know.

Those two definitely formed an alliance, and they even dared to use the Senior’s photo to provoke her.

Let’s see who comes out on top.

Qiu Shuang, who was taking the exam in the classroom, was thinking about going to the club for activities after the test.

This time, they were going to participate in public service together.

Essentially, it was also good news for earning course credits. For the sake of her beautiful transcript, Qiu Shuang signed up.

She only prayed that the elderly people in the nursing home wouldn’t have too many demands and would be friendly. Other than that, she had no other requests.

However, just as she was getting ready to put on her volunteer service badge and head to the meeting point, she was stopped by Gu Lingxi.

“Junior, I need someone to help me organize documents here. Can you come and help me?”

Hearing the request, Qiu Shuang paused. Helping the Senior organize documents seemed like it could increase her favorability, but was the other party’s favorability that useful?

Participating in volunteer service could add credits for her!

“Senior, but I already signed up for…”

“Oh, it’s fine, Junior. I’ve already made it clear to them. You stay and help me complete the task here, and they’ll still credit you for the points. After all, you’re not walking away empty-handed; you’re helping me with a lot of things.”

Hearing the other party’s blatant “grey area” operation, Qiu Shuang fell silent. But at the same time, she also understood a principle: since the other party could openly tell her about this, if she didn’t help, would she really have a good time?

“Hmm, is that so? Then, Senior, I’ll humbly accept your instruction.”

Before truly arriving at the archive room, Qiu Shuang thought she had gotten a good deal, but after seeing a mountain of documents, she was completely silent. She regretted it. Was it still too late to take a taxi to the nursing home now?

“Senior, this doesn’t seem like something our club should be doing…”

Speaking of this, Gu Lingxi shook her head. This was certainly not the club’s work. It was a task her previous Senior in the Student Union had received from a teacher, outsourced to her, and now she was pulling Qiu Shuang in to do it with her.

As for whose head the final credit for this work would land on, who could say?

Qiu Shuang, in any case, was just the unwitting helper here.

After sighing, Qiu Shuang could only accept the facts and began helping to organize the files. These files were neither particularly troublesome nor particularly simple.

Watching one document after another pass through her hands, Qiu Shuang couldn’t help but sigh. Highly confidential work was nothing more than this. What if someone had malicious intent and destroyed this place?

Gu Lingxi seemed to have guessed her inner thoughts and then smiled.

“There are surveillance cameras here, and people regularly come to check for loss and damage.”

Hearing the Senior say this, Qiu Shuang shook her head. To be honest, she thought this kind of thing was useless effort, but after considering the messy logic behind it, Qiu Shuang decided it was best to just be an ordinary university student and not think about so many complicated things.

Qiu Shuang didn’t believe she was good at flattering people, nor did she think she was good at navigating complex interpersonal relationships. Therefore, staying clear-headed, calm, and always earnest in doing her own thing—not getting involved in excessive matters or thinking about other things—could actually solve most things very well.

While Qiu Shuang was seriously looking at the documents according to Gu Lingxi’s arrangement, Gu Lingxi was also silently watching her.

She admitted that Qiu Shuang was beautiful, especially when the other person was seriously working, she looked even more charming. Thinking this, she felt that her idea of pursuing Qiu Shuang was very correct, even if the other person might not be able to feel her pursuit right now.

Thinking of this, Gu Lingxi felt a little annoyed. If she wasn’t her club president, maybe she could have pursued her quickly. But why was she?

Although the club president wasn’t a very powerful position, in this kind of special relationship, her pursuit felt somewhat like coercion.

Thinking of this, Gu Lingxi shook her head and sighed.

“Senior, oh Senior, you’ve really caused me a huge problem.”

If Gu Lingxi were just an ordinary student, pursuing the other party would probably be much simpler than it was now. But she also understood a principle: if she hadn’t joined this club and been assigned the president, she would probably never have met or pursued the other party.
