Good news! My sister Lin finally stopped being abstract today!

Chapter 290 I Don't Need to Pay for Your Preferences

Lin Zhihao sensed that Yun Yi's words had a hidden meaning, so she went straight to the point and asked, "What do you want to ask, senior?"

Yunyi straightened her back and placed her genuine handbag next to Lin Zhihao's sofa seat: "I think that girls shouldn't be so vain. They should be worthy of themselves and their parents."

"Don't do anything you'll regret in a moment of despair."

Lin Zhihao scoffed lightly, "What do you mean, senior?"

A hint of mockery appeared in Yunyi's eyes. "Girls should have some self-respect. It's okay to enjoy yourself to the fullest extent within your own means, but once you exceed that limit, it's easy to lose yourself. You know that, right, junior?"

Lin Zhihao laughed, annoyed. "What kind of life I lead is none of your business, is it? Besides, I spend my own money, what does it have to do with you, senior?"

Yun Yi's face turned ugly after being rebuked, so she simply stopped pretending and moved closer to Lin Zhihao, saying, "Stop using those underhanded, seductive tricks of yours. Don't make a move on people you shouldn't be interested in. He's not someone you can get involved with. Do you think everyone is like your sugar daddies?"

Lin Zhihao's smile faded.

Unexpectedly, even though she tried to avoid suspicion, people still came up to her and started spreading rumors.

After Yunyi finished speaking, she stood up and sat down next to Chen Man. The two sat very close together, and she even gave Lin Zhihao a provocative look.

Lin Zhihao:......

No, what is this? She tried so hard to avoid suspicion tonight, can't this guy see that?

I rely on!

She knew perfectly well that anyone who could hang out with Wu Jiaojiao couldn't be a good person!

At that moment, Wu Jiaojiao, who was in the dormitory, sneezed loudly. She rubbed her nose a few times and asked, "Who's thinking about me?"

Lin Zhihao couldn't possibly fail to sense that she had been tricked, and she also noticed Chen Man's unusual behavior today.

Hmph, a scumbag and a bad woman, a perfect match.

As Lin Zhihao was thinking, her gaze happened to turn towards Chen Man's direction. Chen Man had been paying attention to Lin Zhihao, and now that she was looking at him, he immediately looked back.

Lin Zhihao rolled her eyes and curled her lip. "Tch."

Being disliked for no reason is bad enough, but now I'm being rolled my eyes at too.

Chen Man:......

The atmosphere inside the private room was very lively.

Lin Zhihao had a headache from the noise, so she left the private room to go outside for some fresh air.

Standing on the rooftop, a gentle breeze slowly caressed her cheeks.

Lin Zhihao looked on with a look of enjoyment, gazing at the dazzling lights below, her thoughts drifting away.

She thought of the people at the orphanage again.

Since transmigrating into the book, the events surrounding the orphanage have felt like a dream to her, and her current life is the only reality.

She came here with Manman. It's good that she's here so she won't feel too lonely. I wonder what Manman is doing now?

Lin Zhihao took out her phone.

After ringing twice, the call was answered.

"Hey?"

Hearing the voice on the phone, Lin Zhihao's voice suddenly choked up for some reason, "Manman."

Upon hearing Lin Zhihao's voice, He Manman immediately gestured to the staff behind her, and her assistant promptly left the dressing room.

"Zhizhi? What's wrong? Are you crying? What happened? Did someone bully you? Where are you now? I'll come find you. Whoever dares to bully you, I'll get revenge on them right away."

Hearing He Manman's hurried voice, Lin Zhihao burst into laughter through her tears, "Oh, no, I just missed you and wanted to call to ask about you."

"Really?"

"Ah."

He Manman breathed a sigh of relief. "If you miss me, just come visit me on set. Why all this fuss? I thought you were crying. You scared me to death."

"Hehe, it's just that the wind on the rooftop is too strong. I want to come find you tonight, will you come pick me up?"

“Sure,” He Manman readily agreed.

The two chatted for a while before hanging up.

Lin Zhihao took a deep breath, put her phone back in her pocket, stretched, and then left the rooftop.

Just as Lin Zhihao was about to turn the corner, she looked up and saw the couple not far away.

"Chen Man, I've been by your side for so long, don't you understand my feelings?"

Lin Zhihao: !!!

Oh my god, she's about to get some gossip!

Lin Zhihao covered her mouth, afraid that she might accidentally scream.

The two continued talking.

"I've already rejected you." The man's voice was cold, so cold it sounded almost heartless.

The girl standing opposite him wasn't upset by his words. Just as he said, she had indeed heard this kind of rejection many times before.

But she just couldn't control her feelings; she just liked him.

"But I rejected so many suitors for you, why won't you give me a chance? Is your heart made of stone?" the girl questioned, her voice tinged with grievance as she looked up and saw the cold expression on the man's face.

Chen Man lowered his head slightly, one hand in his pocket, and the top button of his shirt was fastened. He looked ascetic, yet also as if he was keeping everyone at arm's length.

"I love you," the girl sobbed.

Lin Zhihao, who had inadvertently been eavesdropping around the corner: "!!!"

Confessing my feelings, it's a confession!!!

Live version!!

"Oh, so?" The man remained indifferent. The girl's heartbroken appearance did not affect him at all, as if the person in front of him did not exist.

The clouds fell silent.

Chen Man raised an eyebrow slightly. How could a person standing next to a fire not feel warmth? But if you don't like it, you don't like it. Even if you force it, it will only make everyone uncomfortable.

He can't and doesn't want to pretend to love someone.

After all, he already has someone he likes. Not being promiscuous is the most basic stepping stone he can give to his future partner.

"But it's been three years. I've liked you for three whole years. I came to this school because of you... you..."

"What does this have to do with me?" the man suddenly interrupted the girl.

Yun Duo was stunned for a moment, then asked blankly, "What?"

"What does it matter to me if you like me? Do I need to pay for your feelings? Don't use your so-called deep affection as a reason. I don't need to pay for your feelings. The fact that you like me only means that I have some qualities that attract you. Attracting you will also become a reason to attract others. Therefore, I will not take any responsibility for you, understand?"

The man spoke coldly.

Even Lin Zhihao, who was just watching, felt sorry for the girl.
