Chapter 1096: If So, Wouldn’t She Be Asking to Be Snubbed?
After class, some girls went to chat up Zhou Yuchen, awkwardly asking him what detergent he used to wash his clothes.
However, Zhou Yuchen didn’t reply to a single one of them. He packed up his books and said to Yun Liuli, “Let’s go. Isn’t there another place we’re heading to?”
Zhou Yuchen didn’t forget about this.
Yun Liuli nodded and was just about to stand up when she saw Guan Nina tugging her sleeve, looking at her with puppy eyes. She seemed to be pleading Yun Liuli to bring her along.
Yun Liuli turned and asked Zhou Yuchen, “Why don’t we let her come along?”
Zhou Yuchen didn’t even take a look at Guan Nina, simply saying, “You decide!”
His tone sounded indifferent, and Guan Nina thought of backing out. Given how pretty Yun Liuli was… Zhou Yuchen must have fallen in love with Yun Liuli. If so, wouldn’t she be asking to be snubbed?
However, judging from Yun Liuli’s reactions, it didn’t seem as if she liked Zhou Yuchen!
Guan Nina then thought of how Yun Liuli wasn’t someone good at socializing with others and was also straightforward with her words!
If Yun Liuli liked Zhou Yuchen, she would definitely tell her straight away that this person was someone she liked and that she wasn’t allowed to chase after him!
At the thought of this, Guan Nina felt better. She packed up her books and headed out with them.
Zhou Yuchen couldn’t describe what he was feeling. In the past, he was always afraid of other people’s detesting gazes, but with Yun Liuli standing next to him now… he didn’t feel as happy as he had expected when he saw how others were looking at him with anticipation and astonishment.
It could be that these people weren’t the ones that Zhou Yuchen wanted to care about…
Zhou Yuchen turned and looked at Yun Liuli, who was talking to Guan Nina, and his lips curled up into a faint smile. She looked even better than the campus’s green scenery. Under the bright summer sun, she was like a soothing cold spring.
All the chattering about Zhou Yuchen in the outside world seemed to be unrelated to him. He looked at the path in front of him, feeling as if he had drawn himself out of the darkness. He was now stepping on the golden spots that shone down through the leaves, and the road in front of him was smooth.
That was right! He only needed to be concerned about the people he cared about!
For example, his mother. For example, the nanny who had always taken care of him. For example… Yun Liuli!
Even though Zhou Yuchen’s recollection of his mother had already become a little vague, he would always recall his mother using a gentle voice to tell him that he was the best-looking angel in the world.
There was also the nanny who had always taken care of him. She had always protected Zhou Yuchen behind her when others were bullying him. She said that Zhou Yuchen was the best child in the world, that he wasn’t a monster!
And now, he had Yun Liuli…
She wanted to save him from his dark world.
Zhou Yuchen felt that this life wasn’t as dark as he expected. On the contrary, he was very lucky. At the very least, there had always been someone to help him!
When Yun Liuli, Zhou Yuchen, and Guan Nina were about to reach the school gates, someone suddenly called out to Yun Liuli and Guan Nina. When the two of them turned, they saw Du Yingzi, who was wearing a long white dress.
Guan Nina recalled what Du Yingzi had said about Zhou Yuchen, and she unconsciously threw a glance at him. She was worried that Du Yingzi would feel awkward when she saw Zhou Yuchen.
Du Yingzi ran over, and her waist-length hair fluttered under the green shaded path where the light shone down. She appeared very youthful.
If Zhou Yuchen had seen Du Yingzi running toward him like that in the past, he would probably have been unable to suppress his quickened heartbeat…
However, standing next to Yun Liuli now, his eyes not blocked by his fringe, he realized that his heart was calm and without ripples.
Realizing this, Zhou Yuchen felt a little happy. He threw a sideward glance at Yun Liuli, who seemed to be a girl who could seize all the brilliance away just by standing there quietly. His heart felt very peaceful.
Du Yingzi ran up to Yun Liuli and Guan Nina, throwing a glance at Zhou Yuchen. Seeing his eyes that were of different colors, Du Yingzi smiled. “Zhou Yuchen, it’s really you!”
Zhou Yuchen couldn’t say what he was feeling. In the past, he had thought that Du Yingzi was a lady who didn’t mind his eyes. However, at a later time, he overheard her talking to someone about his eyes, saying that he was a monster. Zhou Yuchen had felt upset then.
Seeing Du Yingzi walking up to him, smiling and greeting him, a monster, Zhou Yuchen nodded. His lips curled up slightly, but he felt a little strange inside.
Was she not afraid of him now?
“Liuli, you’ve gotten together with Zhou Yuchen? How could you not tell us anything? You must give us a treat! You must!” Du Yingzi was on good terms with Yun Liuli, and she said this while grabbing Yun Liuli’s arm.
Guan Nina was stunned. Didn’t Du Yingzi previously say that Zhou Yuchen was a monster and that she was terrified of him? Wasn’t she scared to be greeting him now?
Guan Nina tugged at Yun Liuli’s arm. When Du Yingzi said that, they were all around!
“Didn’t you have something to do? Let’s make a move first…” Guan Nina urged Yun Liuli.
From the beginning, Guan Nina didn’t really like Du Yingzi. Although Du Yingzi had good relations with many people, she felt that she gave off a slippery feeling, being too tactful.
This was especially so regarding Zhou Yuchen. Right now, Guan Nina liked Zhou Yuchen and wanted to chase him, so she was wary of Du Yingzi.
Given Guan Nina’s understanding of Du Yingzi, she felt that Du Yingzi was trying to sound Yun Liuli out. She was afraid that if Yun Liuli said that she wasn’t a couple with Zhou Yuchen, Du Yingzi would also want to chase him!
Guan Nina was planning to get the advantage by being closer to him! She couldn’t let Du Yingzi mess things up. After all… Du Yingzi was better-looking than her.
With Guan Nina interrupting, Yun Liuli didn’t even manage to explain things when Du Yingzi said with understanding, “You guys have something to do? Then go on!”
After saying that, she looked toward Zhou Yuchen again. “You should still remember me, right? See you next time!”
When Guan Nina heard Du Yingzi’s words, the alarm in her heart went off. “Let’s go!”
They hailed a taxi after leaving school, and Yun Liuli gave the driver the address. She saw Guan Nina leaning toward the front passenger seat, saying to Zhou Yuchen, “Zhou Yuchen, it’s not that I want to badmouth Du Yingzi, but if she chases you, you must keep an eye on her! I also want to chase you. You might think that I’m up to no good, so you must also keep an eye on me! Check me out properly!”
Guan Nina was very reserved with the way she said things, not talking about the bad things Du Yingzi had said about Zhou Yuchen. This was primarily because she was roommates with Du Yingzi. It was also because she didn’t wish for Zhou Yuchen to feel upset after hearing those things.
