Ambition

Chapter 25

Tian Zhengguo had always been close to Min Kyo-eun's classmate, Yoo Seon-woo, and tried to get Min Kyo-eun's phone number from him.

At first, Yoo Seon-woo was happy that Tian Zhengguo contacted him. However, the more they talked, the more he felt strange. He found that Tian Zhengguo always talked about Min Kyo-eun.

He had a good relationship with Min Kyo-eun, so he didn't want Min Kyo-eun to be in bad news because of him. Therefore, when Tian Zhengguo talked about Min Kyo-eun again, he directly closed his mouth.

Tian Zhengguo knew that his intentions had been found out by Yoo Seon-woo. He didn't hide anything and directly told him that he liked Min Kyo-eun. He also asked him for Min Kyo-eun's phone number.

Yoo Seon-woo was very surprised. He still didn't agree to tell Tian Zhengguo the phone number.

Tian Zhengguo sincerely assured him that it wouldn't affect Min Kyo-eun's reputation. Yoo Seon-woo then gave him the phone number.

After getting the phone number, Tian Zhengguo directly called Min Kyo-eun.

Min Kyo-eun didn't answer strange calls, so she hung up Tian Zhengguo's calls. However, she found that the caller was still tirelessly calling.

Min Kyo-eun was extremely annoyed by the ringtone. She had no choice but to pick up the phone. Even her tone was a little impatient. "Hello, who is this? Why do you keep calling me?"

"…" Min Kyo-eun's voice on the phone made Tian Zhengguo's brain feel like it was electrocuted. After seven or eight seconds, he reacted. "It's me, Tian Zhengguo."

Tian Zhengguo?

How did he get her phone number?

Min Kyo-eun moved the phone away and glanced at the screen. She suspected that the other party was lying.

"Sorry, I don't quite understand what you mean. Please don't joke around."

"What?

You're turning your back on me after kissing me? "Tian Zhengguo teased." Your attitude makes me very sad. "

At this time, Min Kyo-eun was completely sure that the other party was Tian Zhengguo. Only the two of them could know that she had kissed him.

"Senior, where did you get my phone number? Let me know who to block you!"

Of course, Min Kyo-eun didn't say the second half of the sentence.

Tian Zhengguo: "Don't ask me. I promised someone.....

Anyway, the entertainment circle is only so big. I can always get your phone number. "

Min Kyo-eun glanced at the several sisters who were watching TV. She stood up and walked to the balcony. She closed the door behind her. "I don't care where you got it from. I made it very clear last time. Senior, it's impossible between us."

"I know."

Tian Zhengguo played with the pen in his hand and laughed. "I didn't say that I wanted your phone number to pursue you. I heard your words very clearly. It's just that I can't help but feel a little sad after being rejected by you.

As compensation, we can always be friends, right? "

Min Kyo-eun was choked by Tian Zhengguo's words. She helplessly leaned against the balcony railing and didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

She kept reminding herself not to believe Tian Zhengguo's words. He was a wild wolf. Even if she was a fox, she couldn't win against him.

Tian Zhengguo didn't give Min Kyo-eun a chance to refuse. He continued, "I'm not the kind of person who won't give up. It's not like there are no people in the entertainment circle who won't give up. I have my own self-esteem. You rejected me, but I still won't give up. Wouldn't that make me look lowly?"

What's the use of being lowly? Being able to pursue her was the most important thing.

Of course, Tian Zhengguo wouldn't say this sentence out loud.

"…" Min Kyo-eun smiled bitterly. "Senior, don't joke around. It's really not suitable for the two of us to do this."

Tian Zhengguo didn't get angry because of Min Kyo-eun's words. Instead, he laughed more heartily.

First, it was because Min Kyo-eun was very defensive, which made him feel relieved.

Second, it was because although Min Kyo-eun was helpless, she didn't actually refuse him.

"Are you so defensive against me?

It makes me a little sad. Think about it. If I still wanted to pursue you, I wouldn't have such an attitude now, right?

Kyo-eun Xi, if it were you, you wouldn't do this, right? "

Min Kyo-eun looked through the glass at the sisters who were laughing in the room. Her mind was in a mess.

Well, she really didn't understand what Tian Zhengguo meant.

It was just that in the entertainment circle, it was better to have one more friend than one more enemy. It was just that she couldn't get along with Tian Zhengguo as a friend for the time being. After all, not long ago, she had rejected Tian Zhengguo's confession.

"I think it's good for us to have the status of being seniors and juniors. If senior doesn't have anything else, I'll hang up first. Augny is calling me."

After saying that, Min Kyo-eun hung up the phone without waiting for Tian Zhengguo's answer.

On the other end of the phone, Tian Zhengguo's eyes were unfathomable. He stared at the phone screen for a long time before smiling.

However, Min Kyo-eun didn't lie. Park Chae-young really waved her hand and called her.

After hanging up the phone, Min Kyo-eun pushed open the French window and walked into the living room. She took a plate of dumplings from Park Chae-young and sat down to eat.

Kim Ji-ni stared at Min Kyo-eun for a long time before asking, "Kyo-eun, who were you talking to on the phone just now? Cai Ying called you several times before you came in."

"Ah —" Min Kyo-eun swallowed the dumpling. "I was chatting with a good friend in class. She asked me when I was free to meet her."

"Oh —" Kim Ji-ni nodded thoughtfully.

Kim Ji?

She suddenly said, "Kyo-eun, you have to be careful when you're with your classmate. Don't let the paparazzi take photos. They'll make up stories again."

Nowadays, paparazzi could make up stories just by casually taking photos.

Lisa chewed on the dumpling and said vaguely, "Yeah, Kyo-eun, you have to be careful."

Min Kyo-eun smiled, took a sip of water, and didn't answer.

*

After the phone call with Min Kyo-eun that day, Tian Zhengguo began to send her frequent text messages. The content of the messages was very ordinary. They were all trivial things that happened in their lives. None of them crossed the line, which inadvertently reduced her vigilance.

When Min Kyo-eun received the messages, she usually deleted them after a glance. Their managers would take away their phones when they were performing on stage. Sometimes, they would even click on their phones to see if they had chatted with the opposite sex. If they didn't delete the messages, they would be discovered.

Tian Zhengguo had sent so many messages that Min Kyo-eun only picked a few to reply to.

Tian Zhengguo knew that Min Kyo-eun was avoiding suspicion, but he didn't care and continued to send messages.

Because Tian Zhengguo had been holding his phone for too long, his brothers all realized that he was busy chasing after someone. Among them, Kim Tae?

Park Ji-ho?

The most excited.

Kim Tae?

Every time, he would ask Tian Zhengguo if Min Kyo-eun had replied to his messages. Every time, Tian Zhengguo would say no. Kim Tae?

He was even more disappointed than Tian Zhengguo. After knowing that Min Kyo-eun had replied to his messages, he was even happier than Tian Zhengguo, which made the others feel helpless and amused.

Park Ji-ho?

His excitement was purely for fun. He was Tian Zhengguo's crazy brother complex. As long as it was related to his brother, he would never stay out of it. Sometimes, he would even help Tian Zhengguo to come up with ideas.

Because of this, Tian Zhengguo even suspected that Park Ji-ho was in love with someone.

Was he in a relationship? How did he know so many ways to woo someone? Under his torture, Pu Zhi was forced to confess.

He had to admit that he learned these ideas from the social media at the last minute.

Although Tian Zhengguo usually flirted with people on stage and was full of charm off stage, he didn't have much experience in chasing after someone. However, this didn't mean that he didn't know how to do it.

Sometimes, if he acted too hastily, there would be side effects. Therefore, he would rather take it slow than go too fast.
