Chapter 2: Captivating
Upon seeing Zhou Ke, Zhang Fan couldn't help but lose his composure. Honestly, Zhou Ke was really beautiful, that was the truth. Such a beauty was indeed tempting, but Zhang Fan had his own kind of persistence.
Straight from the confidence in his bones, Zhang Fan knew that he had no chance with Zhou Ke in this lifetime. That was a decision he had made.
Thinking about his hard work, Zhang Fan felt a surge of determination.
Could Zhou Ke believe her ears? She stared at Zhang Fan dumbfoundedly. Today was supposed to be a chat, but he was talking about breaking up?
What qualifications did this guy have? What courage did he have to break up with her?
The other two roommates in the dorm couldn't believe their ears either. They made sure they heard correctly.
Break up?
Was he really talking about breaking up?
"What do you mean? I don't understand," Zhou Ke inquired, to which Zhang Fan replied, "Break up. It's simple and straightforward. If you agree, just nod. We'll break up, and that's it. Needing your consent to break up? No."
"Hey, Zhang Fan, what's gotten into you today? We can talk about our issues privately. If you're angry, you can talk to me," Zhou Ke said. "I'm not angry. Even if I were, would it matter? You probably think you'd enjoy it anyway, being so handsome. Come on, give it a try. Who wouldn't like it?" The self-confidence of this scumbag was on full display. Zhang Fan had countless ways to let a girl know what a scumbag and cruel person he was.
But could anyone believe what they were hearing?
Was he saying this in front of everyone?
"This guy, does he really have the guts to say such things?" Zhou Ke sat angrily in the chair in the dorm, her roommates comforting her.
"Do you know what this guy just said? He said he liked me. Can you believe it? How dare he say I'm not good-looking? Yeah, this guy is probably just after my money," the roommates laughed, but they were also angry. Zhang Fan was really something, how could he say such things?
This matter could definitely end, but hands must be parted. Zhou Ke typed a message directly to Zhang Fan, reminding him to remember his words today and regret them later.
Unfortunately, the message was sent, and there was no turning back.
Why did he do that? Why did he delete her first?
Was this guy really determined this time?
What should she do? In the midst of confusion, Zhou Ke began to panic. She didn't know what to do.
Zhang Fan received a message from his dormmate, praising him.
[Congratulations, Host, on successfully breaking up. Rewards have been distributed.]
[Congratulations, Host, on receiving rewards. Identity Pass, Strengthening Potion x1, 1 million yuan, +10 years of life.]
This was truly the real way to open a new chapter in his life.
Zhang Fan clicked on the gift bag and countless messages flooded his mind, from ancient emperors to modern literature, from historical anecdotes to introductions of various scholars. They all filled his mind.
After a while, he calmed down. Zhang Fan understood himself now. He had opened up.
He understood completely.
With the chat history on his phone and 100 breakups to go, Zhang Fan felt liberated.
"Wow, Zhang Fan, you're amazing! You broke up?"
"Bro, are you going to rely on us for meals again?"
"Are you going to eat instant noodles now?"
Eating instant noodles just to save money to buy a gift for a goddess? Only a fool would do such a thing.
"Now that I have money, I'll spend the night at an internet cafe and splurge."
"Damn, Zhang Fan, you're rich now!"
After arranging a time, Zhang Fan looked at his phone, found the antique market, and hailed a taxi to go there.
