Reborn with Consumption System

Chapter 994 - 402: Composure (2)

I’d rather be marginalized than act impulsively and leave a negative impression.Only when entering a private space does she make a small move to "test," perfecting the target image and waiting for the next opportunity to launch her attack.

If Han Lie talked to her out of guilt for sneaking that glance, then the subsequent development would definitely be interesting.

Where does the guilt come from?

It’s that moment when she tugged at her collar and turned her head.

She did it deliberately for Han Lie to see, but she acted as if, "How impolite of you, how can you just look at a girl like that?"

Attention please!

Remember, remember — any woman in the world, when trying on a dress, will repeatedly check herself in the mirror, test the effect, and deeply understand under what posture and angle she might accidentally show too much and to what extent.

A woman wearing a dress for the first time might face an awkward situation due to lack of experience, but a woman who often wears dresses will never make such a low-level mistake.

They are more aware than any old lecher of what angles will provide a good view.

However, there are way too many women who expose their bodies, it’s nothing valuable.

The truly impressive ones are like Gu Zicheng, who shows a little unintentionally, and then immediately uses body language to remind you "it’s impolite," before shrinking back, waiting for you to fall into the trap voluntarily.

Guys, when you encounter such a woman, quickly move away; normal men absolutely can’t keep up.

She has already moved beyond the category of a "gold digger," not even the term "queen" can describe her, she’s more like a top predator.

Once caught by such a woman, being drained of value is an inevitable outcome; the saddest part is that even at the end, you may not get any real benefits.

Han Lie certainly won’t be fooled, he pretends nothing happened and closes his eyes to take a rest.

However, ignoring her is also an effective message.

Gu Zicheng immediately realizes — although Han Lie is young, he’s definitely not an ordinary lad, he’s deeply calculating, stable in character, and usual tactics won’t work on him.

Time to use some stronger tactics!

She continues to remain silent, quietly looking out the window, her gaze gradually becoming dreamy, the light refracting tiny fireworks on her irises, looking beautiful, with a fragility that even Tang Xintian doesn’t possess.

This is not a strong tactic, but a further personality test.

Indeed, this is a simple routine that can be used regardless of gender.

The general method is as follows—

After having a fairly pleasant interaction or date with someone you have an ambiguous relationship with, find a relatively private space — the backseat of a taxi is the best venue — but don’t chat anymore, nor focus your attention on them, empty your mind or think about something else, preferably an unpleasant experience or memory, lowering the atmosphere while appropriately creating a sense of "story" around yourself, which will effectively pique the other person’s curiosity and want to know you more.

During this process, you can not only conduct a personality test on them but also control the situation through their initiative.

Here are some common reactions and corresponding personalities.

If they can’t wait to ask what you’re thinking, what’s wrong, then they’re likely impatient, superficial in thinking, with a strong desire to express themselves.

If they appear hesitant, struggle for a while before asking, then they’re likely introverted and timid, sensitive to others’ feelings, a gentle and kind person.

If they casually laugh and ask, then they’re likely not interested in you, you’ve failed to connect with them.

If they show superficial warmth, then they’re likely a player, with a low level, just aiming to get you to bed or reap benefits quickly.

Han Lie’s reaction is the classic response of a high-level cold-blooded man.

Responding to change with consistency, you act your part, I don’t care.

In interactions between men and women, silence is also a form of confrontation.

Han Lie not only remains silent, but he even closes his eyes, showing a posture of — I don’t care what you’re feeling, I’m someone who needs to be pleased, surrounded, placed at the center; you’re not important, my self-perception is most important.

This posture, if used poorly, can appear very conceited, foolish.

Like Xiao Wang in front of Sun Yining, he made the same mistake.

If someone doesn’t buy into this, doesn’t care about you, no matter how much you show off, it’s just self-entertainment.

Women beside Han Lie, like Tang Xintian, Pan Ge, Xi Luting, can’t be dealt with using such a crude method; it’s purely seeking no fun.

But Gu Zicheng is different, she’s the one who came over with a purpose, and while the cold treatment is given, it also sets boundaries for her.

——If you want to get something from me, you have to actively please me.

Halfway through the journey, she finally couldn’t hold it any longer.

Han Lie remained silent, Tang Xintian also said nothing, the atmosphere in the car was simply torturous, too damn uncomfortable.

However, she truly deserves her title of top predator, she didn’t even try to resolve Han Lie, instead, she set her sights on breaking the ice with Tang Xintian.

"Tang Tang, how long has it been since we sat in a car together?"

Her voice was low and weak, filled with deep sighs, like reminiscing about lost youth.

She’s really strong.

The storytelling in her voice, with just one sentence she can stir emotions, how the hell does she even practice that?

Even though Tang Xintian knows her personality, she couldn’t control it, she opened her mouth with a snicker.

"Does riding the school bus during the high school field trip count? That’s the only time I remember."
