Chapter 150 No man is any good.
Chapter 150 No man is any good.
But Su Luming's next sentence almost scared the ancestral spirit to death.
Su Luming, seemingly half-asleep or guided by some intuition, murmured in a joking, languid tone, "I thought... you were out fooling around with that Ye Fan..."
Unexpectedly, Su Luming's prediction came true. Xian Zuling swallowed hard, feeling as if her heart was about to jump out of her chest.
Su Luming continued, "Let me tell you, don't be fooled by his status as a top scorer in the college entrance exam and his respectable appearance... Ye Fan is a very complex person with a lot of stories to tell. He's definitely not the kind of bookworm who just studies all the time... Don't be fooled by his handsome face..."
She paused, lowering her voice further, with a hint of mystery: "Really... especially at night, never go out alone with him, and definitely don't go to... hotels... He's the kind of person who's very cunning; he'll eat you alive... I'm just worried you'll get hurt..."
"How...how could this be..."
Almost instinctively, the ancestral spirit squeezed out a faint, almost inaudible sound from its throat in response.
Upon hearing the faint rebuttal from the ancestral spirit, Su Luming immediately perked up, as if she had found the perfect audience to proclaim her truth.
She turned to the side, lowered her voice, and spoke with the certainty of someone who'd been there all along: "Why not? Let me tell you, no man is any good, especially young lads like us. Their heads aren't filled with anything good! When their rampant testosterone kicks in, they think with their lower bodies! You know what I mean?"
She became more and more animated as she spoke, as if revealing a shocking secret: "To us girls, they are natural hunters! And us? We are their prey! No matter if you're beautiful or ugly, in their eyes, we all look the same as everyone else when the lights are off! That's their truth! Do you understand?"
Su Luming spoke fluently and at length.
Xian Zuling listened silently, wrapped in a quilt.
Su Luming's voice echoed in her ears, but a small voice in her heart strongly objected: No! Absolutely not!
Because she had just personally experienced spending an entire night in the same hotel room as Ye Fan!
Not only was she unharmed, but Ye Fan, whom Su Luming described as "thinking only with his lower body," didn't even bother "hunting" her; he simply ignored her completely!
He fell into a deep sleep the moment his head hit the bed, snoring louder than any pig she had ever seen, and didn't even bother to look at her once!
Could it be... that Xian Zuling couldn't help but wonder... was it really because his ugly disguise was too successful?
So successful that he couldn't even muster the slightest interest in being "prey"?
This thought made her feel inexplicably complicated.
In her ears, Su Luming's words of experience echoed again: "I'm not bragging, but I know guys too well! Back in high school, the line of guys who wanted to date me could circle the track twice! Even upperclassmen were eager to get close to me..."
"But they're all too weak, I don't even look at them! Trying to pick me up? No way! I have to be the one who sets my sights on me first!"
Then she added, "And another thing, don't you think guys' heads are always filled with those trivial things? So childish! Absolutely childish!"
"childish..."
Upon hearing this word, Xian Zuling's thoughts involuntarily drifted towards Ye Fan.
She carefully recalled every detail from last night to this morning: Ye Fan's calmness, his sharp tongue, his way of solving problems, which was infuriating, and even his narcissistic nature that deserved a beating... Which of these was related to childishness?
On the contrary, I am more like that childish person when I am helpless, easily made to cry, and panicked in front of him.
Thinking about it that way, Ye Fan is indeed a good person.
Hmm~ She's a very good person.
......
At this very moment, Ye Fan was enjoying a delicious bowl of Taihu Lake crab roe noodles in the school cafeteria. The noodles were covered with golden crab roe and meat, and the aroma was irresistible.
He had no idea that he was being friend-zoned by the girl he had shared a room with the night before.
"Achoo!"
A loud sneeze came out without warning, making the bowl in front of him shake.
Ye Fan rubbed his itchy nose and muttered in annoyance, "Tsk, which bastard is talking about me behind my back again? Probably that kid Zhao. I beat him so badly in the game last night, he's still holding a grudge after waking up..."
He shook his head, quickly ate the remaining noodles clean, leaving not a drop of soup, and then got up and went back to his dormitory, satisfied.
Pushing open the door, a wave of murky air, a mixture of sweat, alcohol, and the smell of sleep, hit me.
The three little ones were still sleeping, their snoring sounding like pigs squealing.
Unexpectedly, Liu Yunzhi was also there. He was sitting on a chair near the balcony, engrossed in reading a thick book with a somewhat worn cover, bathed in the morning light.
Seeing Ye Fan return looking refreshed and neatly dressed, Liu Yunzhi took off his glasses in surprise, wiped them, and put them back on to make sure he wasn't mistaken: "Brother Fan? You're back? You were... alright last night?"
His eyes were filled with confusion, clearly unable to understand how Ye Fan could look like he had just returned from his morning exercise, while the others looked like they had been drained of all their energy.
Ye Fan smiled, his gaze sweeping over his three incompetent teammates: "Yeah, you're back. You... took care of them all night?"
He felt a little guilty.
Last night, I only asked Liu Yunzhi to help bring the person back, but I didn't expect this honest brother to actually stay up all night.
Ye Fan had always had a good impression of Liu Yunzhi. He knew Liu Yunzhi's character from their time in the same class in his previous life: a typical straight-laced science and engineering guy, with a mind as simple as a straight line, no ulterior motives, loyal, and a trustworthy friend.
"What are you looking at?" Ye Fan asked casually, walking to his bedside and starting to tidy up his things.
Liu Yunzhi didn't reply, put down his book, and then said mysteriously, "Brother Fan! I have a question for you, tell me honestly! Were you with that ugly girl all night?"
Upon hearing this, Ye Fan almost burst out laughing.
He patted Liu Yunzhi on the shoulder, correcting him with a mix of helplessness and amusement: "Yunzhi, how many times have I told you? You can't judge a book by its cover. He's offering sacrifices to his ancestors; he's not ugly, is he?"
He knew Liu Yunzhi was a very straightforward man, a bit slow on the uptake, and would never understand things, so he didn't explain further.
"Not ugly?"
Liu Yunzhi looked as if he had heard some earth-shattering fallacy, his eyes widening like copper bells, with an expression that said, "Brother Fan, are you blind?"
"Brother Fan! You're perfect in every way in my eyes, but your taste... I really can't agree with it!"
