Chapter 565: 565 Is this the legendary... disillusionment?

Sun Ling had been busy with these things recently.

Under the guidance of the big boss, she now looked more and more like the director of artists, although she still lacked some decisiveness in practical operations. However, compared to her initial days as a junior assistant, she had advanced rapidly and was striding forward confidently.

After sending another eliminated member abroad, Sun Ling had just returned to the office when the receptionist ran over to her and said, "Sister Sun Ling, there’s a handsome guy looking for you outside, have you made a new romantic acquaintance?"

Seeing the receptionist winking at her, Sun Ling quickly waved her hands and answered, "I wish I could meet someone, but the company needs to give me a chance. You see how busy I’ve been lately."

"Well... Anyway, you should go and see, it’s a really handsome guy!"

Sun Ling tidied up briefly, picked up her cellphone, and walked towards the door. When she saw the familiar yet unfamiliar figure next to the black sedan, she paused for a moment, feeling a sudden urge to flee.

I must have put on makeup when I went to send off the team member, right?

The man was over 1.8 meters tall, with chestnut hair parted on the side, and was enveloped in a white trench coat, looking proud and sophisticated.

In the sunlight, his side profile was too handsome, too refined. His features were delicate yet well-defined, which put together, was both comfortable and captivating to look at.

"You finally came out." The man turned around to see Sun Ling, straightened up, and pulled his hands out of his pockets.

"Senior Gu, what are you doing here?"

The man took out his phone and then showed Sun Ling a conversation between his mother and himself. His mother’s posts inquiring about someone in her friend circle had become a laughing stock...

"Ah... I’m sorry, I thought my mom was joking, and also, I’ve been really busy lately, haven’t really checked my social circle..."

The man leaned in, got close to Sun Ling, and asked with a half-smile, "So, do you really have a crush on me?"

"I..." Sun Ling suddenly found herself at a loss for words, indeed a bit embarrassed.

The man chuckled, crossed his arms, and said to Sun Ling, "What era are we in that we still play this senior-junior game? I was three grades ahead of you, about to graduate when you entered the school, do you really know me?"

The man’s voice was cool, tinged with a hint of teasing.

"Since we were fated to spend a year together on campus, you must have heard some rumors about me, right? I can juggle three affairs at the same time, change girlfriends without even notifying them. Do you think I would like someone obedient and well-behaved like you?"

Sun Ling was no longer the student from those days; it had been many years since she graduated. Hearing him say this made her realize that perhaps her feelings weren’t as strong as they had seemed.

Could this be the fabled... disillusionment?

"If you don’t like this type of me, then why did you come here today? To mock my youthful naivety?"

"I came to remove your rose-colored glasses." The man said, "Mainly because, recently, my mom thinks you’re a hero, forcing me to come and meet you..."

"Then thank your mom for me, and by the way, I hope you have a tire blowout on your way back." Sun Ling’s brief flutter of excitement vanished in an instant.

Am I that free now?

After saying that, Sun Ling turned and left. Shortly after, she heard the sound of a car engine starting, but... before he had even driven out of the Shuangshi area, his tire blew out!

The man in the car: "..."

"Is my curse that effective? This little girl better not get a toothache and end up in my hands."
