Chapter 33: Humiliating Rejection

Chapter 33: Humiliating Rejection

Fang Yuqing's expression faltered.

She was well aware of her past actions. Despite her demure facade, she knew she was far from innocent.

In her mind, Zhang Yi was still a backup, someone she could easily manipulate.

Despite Zhang Yi’s cold attitude, Fang Yuqing believed he was just playing hard to get. She was convinced that if she pushed a little harder, she could win him over.

So, she pouted and said coquettishly, "I did all that for you! Zhang Yi, don't be so petty!"

"It was all my fault? Let me come over right now and apologize in person, please."

She bit her lip gently, a blush appearing on her cheeks.

"At the very least, let me come over and massage your legs and shoulders."

In such cold weather, her acting skills, making her appear like a shy maiden, were impressive.

It was a shame she didn’t pursue a career in acting!

However, Zhang Yi was not swayed.

"That won't do. We're not a couple, and such intimate actions are unacceptable."

Zhang Yi replied righteously, "I am an old-school person."

Fang Yuqing was nearly driven mad by his words.

She practically offered herself to him, yet he continued to act aloof!

Did he really need her to spell it out?

As long as he let her stay at his place, she’d shower him with benefits, potentially even sleep with him.

Perhaps she hadn't made herself clear.

Desperate to live in Zhang Yi’s comfortable home, Fang Yuqing ignored Lin Cainin's presence.

"Zhang Yi, actually, I’ve always had a good impression of you."

"Being boyfriend and girlfriend is not out of the question!"

"After all, affection can grow over time!"

She covered her face, pretending to be shy. "Oh, I’m so embarrassed. Do I need to spell it out?"

Her coy behavior, coupled with her flirtatious glances, was indeed seductive.

If it had been the old Zhang Yi, he might have been so overwhelmed that he would have immediately let her in.

Being a manipulative and deceitful woman wasn’t easy. It required years of honing one’s skills.

Her performance showcased her mastery.

But Zhang Yi quickly pondered whether to let this deceitful woman into his home.

Don't misunderstand. He wasn’t being saintly.

He simply thought that, after pursuing her for two years, it might be worth it to finally sleep with her and settle past grievances.

However, this thought was immediately dismissed.

This was the apocalypse, and any potential risk had to be eliminated.

Thus, he would not open his door to let anyone into his fortress-like home.

Survival was paramount.

Zhang Yi sneered, looking at Fang Yuqing with a mocking gaze.

"Fang Yuqing, have you misunderstood something?"

He spread his hands, saying, "I admit, we had a decent relationship in the past."

"But," he leaned closer to the camera, smirking, "did you really think I liked you?"

This statement was a severe blow for someone as vain as Fang Yuqing!

Sure enough, her face turned pale.

Lin Cainin glanced at her, a hint of schadenfreude in her eyes.

Fang Yuqing demanded, "Zhang Yi, what... what do you mean? Didn’t you love me the most?"

Zhang Yi laughed.

"Don't get me wrong. You are pretty, but I never intended to date you, just to have fun."

"With my conditions, finding a hot girl in Tianhai City is not difficult."

"Where do you get the confidence that I’ve been desperately pursuing you?"

Zhang Yi’s tone was dismissive.

He was telling the truth. As a native of Tianhai City, owning an apartment worth millions, and having a stable job with a monthly salary exceeding ten thousand yuan, plus being tall and handsome, Zhang Yi was a top-notch prospect in the local dating market.

If it weren’t for his kindness and naivety in the past, he could have had many women.

His words felt like daggers to Fang Yuqing's heart.

The worst blow for someone who prided herself on her allure was her charm being dismissed, as it was her lifeline.

She had always viewed Zhang Yi as a simp, keeping him around while pursuing wealthier men.

Now, Zhang Yi was telling her she was just another fish in the pond.

This was unbearable for her!

Her voice quivered with anger, "Zhang Yi! You... you’re too much!"

Zhang Yi sneered, adding more fuel to the fire.

"Alright, enough pretending to be an innocent girl."

"I’ve observed you long ago. You’re just a gold-digger, always thinking about hooking a wealthy man. Do you think rich men are idiots?"

"By the way, you’re infamous among the wealthy heirs in Tianhai City."

"One day you entice Mr. Zhang, the next Mr. Li. They just toy with you for a few days, and you really think you could marry a rich man?"

"Do you know what they call you behind your back? A ‘bus’, a ‘communal socket!’"

Zhang Yi’s ruthless taunts left Fang Yuqing trembling with rage.

In her eyes, Zhang Yi had always been a backup, a simp, yet now he mercilessly mocked her.

It was a complete destruction of her self-esteem!

"Zhang Yi! Shut up!" she screamed.

Zhang Yi laughed, "I’m just speaking the truth. Why are you so upset?"

"Aren’t these all things you did yourself? "

With that, Zhang Yi cut off the call, not giving Fang Yuqing a chance to retaliate.
