Prince charming, your persona has collapsed!-Chapter 219 - 133: Tao Tian’s Pursuit, To Know Three is to be Three!

At this moment, Zheng Yanyan’s heart was aching, but she couldn’t let go of her pride. After saying that, she kept stealing glances at Zhou Yuwen with the corner of her eye.

However, Zhou Yuwen’s expression was very calm at this moment.

Zhou Yuwen was all too familiar with this kind of childish temper tantrum, so he pretended not to hear and looked down at his phone.

Tao Tian, on the other hand, was stunned after hearing these words.

She looked at Zhou Yuwen with suspicion.

Zhou Yuwen had never mentioned any conflict with Zheng Yanyan. When Tao Tian was purposely flirting with Zhou Yuwen just now, he even used his girlfriend as an excuse.

But now, Zheng Yanyan seemed to imply that they were having a falling out?

Tao Tian, looking at Zheng Yanyan’s face which showed all her emotions, suddenly had the urge to take advantage of the situation. She smiled warmly, again becoming the understanding senior, and asked seemingly casually, "Are you two having a spat?"

"Who," Zheng Yanyan, who really wasn’t very scheming, heard Tao Tian’s words and wanted to tell her everything. Zhou Yuwen knew that Tao Tian wanted to hear his gossip, so as soon as Tao Tian spoke up, he started chatting with Lu Lin nearby: "Why are you all still outside so late?"

Lu Lin rolled her eyes at Zhou Yuwen and said, "Isn’t it because of your little darling?"

"Linlin, what nonsense are you talking about?" At this time, Zheng Yanyan became somewhat shy and grabbed Lu Lin’s arm.

In fact, Lu Lin herself found it absurd. The two of them were already face to face, yet they couldn’t talk about these matters openly. At this time, Zheng Yanyan surely had doubts about Zhou Yuwen and Tao Tian being together but was unwilling to speak up.

So it was left to Lu Lin to raise the question of why Zhou Yuwen was with Tao Tian, the senior, so late.

Zhou Yuwen went along with the conversation, saying that he had just finished his part-time job.

"Boots Senior, how’s your part-time work going?" Lu Lin asked.

"Not bad," In front of the two juniors, Tao Tian acted more normal and given her mature attire, looked very dignified. She said that today, thanks to Zhou Yuwen, she experienced things she hadn’t before.

"And I learned a lot."

So Tao Tian shared the day’s events with them, such as Zhou Yuwen’s fluent English, his considerate act of buying her milk tea, and offering her a band-aid. Continue your adventure with novelbuddy

In their exchange, Tao Tian played a linguistic trick. She implied that Zhou Yuwen bought milk tea only for her and, seeing that her feet were blistered by the high heels, he proactively offered her a band-aid.

"Really, I’ve discovered that our junior Zhou Yuwen is exceptionally reliable!" Tao Tian had a good grasp of subtlety, expressing Zhou Yuwen’s preferential treatment of her while also maintaining a distance.

Upon hearing this, Zheng Yanyan felt sour inside and snorted, "Has he ever been that nice to his own girlfriend?"

To which Tao Tian asked, surprised, "No way? Yanyan, isn’t Zhou Yuwen nice to you?"

Zhou Yuwen was actually exasperated with Zheng Yanyan’s typical girl’s emotions and said, "There you go again, talking nonsense. Haven’t I always treated you well? How many cosmetics did I bring back for you from Macau?"

"I don’t want your cosmetics! You haven’t paid any attention to me for three days, why don’t you mention that?" No sooner had Zhou Yuwen finished speaking than Zheng Yanyan immediately broke down, looking pitiful and on the verge of tears in front of Zhou Yuwen.

Seeing Zheng Yanyan looking so pitiful, Zhou Yuwen said, "Then why didn’t you reach out to me?"

"Why should I be the one to reach out? You never take the initiative!" Zheng Yanyan replied pitifully.

Zhou Yuwen, with one hand slung over his suit and the other in his trouser pocket, looked at Zheng Yanyan in front of him, feeling helpless yet somewhat amused.

He said, "I thought you weren’t looking for me because you didn’t want to talk anymore. I was even getting ready to change our couples’ profile pictures."

```

"Who doesn’t want to date you?! Ask Linlin, I’m in the dorm, I don’t even know how many times I’ve zoned out staring at your profile picture, and you didn’t show a single sign!" Zheng Yanyan suddenly got anxious.

Zhou Yuwen just said oh.

"So do you still want to talk?" Zhou Yuwen asked.

Zheng Yanyan still wanted to save face, and with her head lowered, she simply wouldn’t speak.

"The clams are ready." At this moment, the landlady finished preparing two portions of clams.

Tao Tian took over the clams, and Zhou Yuwen said to Zheng Yanyan, "If you don’t answer, I’m going to leave."

Upon hearing this, Zheng Yanyan, without a word, immediately went up and hugged Zhou Yuwen, burying her head in his chest, her big eyes staring at him mournfully.

Pitiful as could be.

"Don’t be silent, okay? Are we still talking or not?" Zhou Yuwen asked.

"Stop asking!" Despite the simplicity of the question, Zheng Yanyan’s tone sounded as if she was very ashamed and refused to answer.

Zhou Yuwen listened and started to chuckle, then lifted his head to look at Tao Tian.

However, Tao Tian wasn’t hoping for this scene, yet when Zhou Yuwen looked her way, she could only force a smile.

Actually, if Zhou Yuwen had wanted to get rid of Zheng Yanyan, he just had to keep silent and let Tao Tian take her shot, Zhou Yuwen and Zheng Yanyan would surely have been split by Tao Tian’s efforts.

But in the end, Zhou Yuwen still showed mercy, not bearing to watch the little girl be toyed with by the bosomy Tao Tian.

Now that Zhou Yuwen and Zheng Yanyan made up, Tao Tian didn’t even feel like asking Zhou Yuwen for a lift anymore, feeling a bit depressed and wanting to just pay for the clams and leave.

Zhou Yuwen took out a hundred yuan to pay for the four portions of clams and said to Tao Tian, "Let me do it, Senior, but I’m afraid I can’t give you a ride anymore."

Tao Tian smiled amiably, "It’s okay, your girlfriend is important, right?"

In the end, Tao Tian left disheartened, but she couldn’t help feeling indignant inside—she didn’t think she was any inferior to Zheng Yanyan in terms of looks or temperament, and in terms of figure, she was much better than the immature little girl.

She didn’t understand—was she really that unattractive to Zhou Yuwen?

Walking back to the dormitory, Tao Tian felt really down.

In school, she was considered a goddess-level figure, inevitably receiving advances from acquainted boys when walking alone on campus, but she was so distracted that day, she ignored the flock of students.

She walked back to the dormitory on her own.

The two seniors who had gone to the part-time job with her had returned long ago.

Pretty girls always looked exquisite when out and about, but truth be told, the dormitory was indeed a mess, with high heels and boots piled up everywhere.

The railings of the bunk beds were hung with various kinds of stockings, undergarments, and the like.

Having earned a good amount of money as ceremonial hostesses that day, they treated themselves to KFC.

"Hey, Tiantian is back? Come on, let’s eat KFC, we saved some just for you." The senior previously in the tight skirt hadn’t even taken off her skirt yet, was sitting there with her legs crossed, shouting to her.

"I’ve already eaten, brought you guys some clams." Tao Tian, expressionless, directly placed the clams in front of her roommates.

```

"Wow, how generous?"

"Eh, Tiantian, what’s wrong? You seem down," the Pencil Skirt Senior asked.

Tao Tian spoke, but both roommates could more or less guess what she was feeling.

The Boots Senior had already taken a shower and was in bed. Seeing Tao Tian in a rare gloomy mood, she became curious. Sitting on her bed with her legs crossed, a pair of snowy white jade legs dangled from the bunk; she asked with a giggle, "Hey, what’s wrong? Is our little underclassman being unromantic?"

Tao Tian said her luck wasn’t very good.

"When I was buying Clams with Zhou Yuwen, I ran into his girlfriend."

"Hmm?"

Upon hearing this, the other two roommates grew interested.

Truthfully, Tao Tian was also annoyed with herself; she felt she shouldn’t have treated Zhou Yuwen like a common freshman and underestimated him. Probably, when Zhou Yuwen had watched her perform, he must have looked down on her inwardly.

Having heard Tao Tian’s account, the other two seniors also felt that made sense.

"You said that kind of thing in front of his girlfriend. At the end of the day, they are boyfriend and girlfriend, so Zhou Yuwen would certainly stand up for his little girlfriend," one of them said.

"Yeah, Tiantian, what were you thinking!"

The roommates’ words made Tao Tian even more dejected.

She said, "I haven’t lost yet. What are you all saying these discouraging words for?"

Honestly, with Tao Tian’s looks and emotional intelligence, she could have her pick of ninety percent of the male students; however, she was only interested in the ones she couldn’t have.

After returning to the dorm, all Tao Tian could think about was Zhou Yuwen, whom she had interacted with today—handsome, dashing, and capable in his actions.

Lying in bed, her mind was flooded with images of Zhou Yuwen in a suit bustling around the exhibition, adeptly guiding the visitors.

He also thoughtfully prepared band-aids.

And when she was at a loss in front of foreigners, he would suddenly appear and say in fluent English, "Hello, can I help you with anything?"

She had never met a guy like him before.

Even though Tao Tian’s reputation wasn’t great at school, what no one knew was that she had never actually been in a relationship thus far. Her physique alone was enough to stir rumors around campus, not to mention by her third year, she definitely had interactions with some males, including those who, despite not gaining any favor with her, would brag about it elsewhere.

There were too many such guys.

Pretty girls indeed often get involved in scandals; however, the exceedingly beautiful ones have very high standards for their partners. The little boys at school might not catch Tao Tian’s eye, and successful people outside of school might not find a way into her heart.

Zhou Yuwen was rare in that respect.

Good-looking.

And the more Tao Tian interacted with him, the less she doubted his future success.

Then she remembered today’s flirtatious moments.

Lying on the bed, Tao Tian felt an unexpected rush of excitement that made her heart race and her cheeks flush.

Oh, and Zhou Yuwen was different from other guys in another way.

He had a good sense of propriety.

Unlike other guys, no matter how outstanding, who would eagerly want to hookup after a bit of closeness.

But Zhou Yuwen, when she leaned up against him just now,

he didn’t even look.

Tao Tian had seen too many guys who would maintain a distance in front of her, even if they had girlfriends just to get close to her.

Zhou Yuwen, though, had a perfect sense of boundaries.

In his presence, no matter how pretty she was, she was just an unrelated outsider.

But for Zheng Yanyan, no matter how spoiled and willful, she was his girlfriend, whom he would pamper and spoil.

Zheng Yanyan was really lucky. Why hadn’t she met such a guy when she was a freshman?

She heard that the cosmetics Zheng Yanyan was using nowadays were all bought by Zhou Yuwen.

Tao Tian tossed and turned in her bed, unable to stop thinking about Zhou Yuwen.

Meanwhile, the other roommates were eating clams and chatting under the beds, naturally talking about Zhou Yuwen.

They talked about how well Zhou Yuwen treated Zheng Yanyan, buying her clothes and cosmetics worth thousands.

"Ah, I really want to date Zhou Yuwen," said the Pencil Skirt Senior.

The Boots Senior said, "I support you, go seduce him!"

"I want to, but I feel I have no advantage. If I were like Tiantian and could just shamelessly rub up against him, I’d have him hooked for sure!"

"Giggle! If you do that, Tiantian might beat you up!" the Long Legs Senior giggled.

In Tao Tian’s dorm, the beds were fitted with curtains, so although she could hear their conversation, she didn’t draw her curtains to join them.

She had indeed fallen for Zhou Yuwen. She took out her phone, looked at Zhou Yuwen’s profile picture, and hesitated.

Zhou Yuwen’s profile picture was still of a couple.

But so what if he had a girlfriend?

If she encountered a guy she liked, should she give up just because he had a girlfriend?

What does it mean to be the third party in love?

Only those who aren’t loved are the third party.

Zheng Yanyan, that crazy girl, simply didn’t deserve Zhou Yuwen. With more business events like today in his future, Yanyan’s craziness could never compare to her. Could she present herself as well as Tao Tian could?

Tao Tian felt she could certainly do better than Zheng Yanyan.

So, Tao Tian finally mustered the courage and sent Zhou Yuwen a message: "Are you there?"
