Chapter 1162: Being Softhearted Is, Frankly Speaking, Just Cowardice Sometimes!

Yun Liuli was glancing around, looking for god-knows-what. Heart rising to her throat, Guan Nina tugged at Yun Liuli’s sleeve and whispered, “What are you doing? They’re going to beat Zhou Yuchen up!”

“Looking for a brick!”

Indeed, Yun Liuli then found a brick. She stuffed her books and water bottle into Guan Nina’s arms, then charged towards those people with a brick in hand and smashed it at someone’s head.

The dumbfounded Guan Nina nearly let out a gasp. She watched as the guy whom Yun Liuli smashed a brick at stumbled a few steps to steady his footing before raising a hand and touching his head…

Fresh red blood.

Zhou Yuchen, who had injuries on his face, paused in surprise. Watching an expressionless Yun Liuli with a brick in hand, his heart nearly leaped out of his chest.

“D*mn…”

As the guy shouted out “damn”, Yun Liuli smashed him with the brick again. This time, the brick broke into two pieces.

“Zhou Yuchen, I taught you. To make these people afraid of you, nab one… and beat him as hard as you can!”

Upon seeing the fairy-like lady act so ferociously, the rest retreated several steps, looking at each other, unable to make sense of the situation.

It was Zhou Yuchen who went forward to hold back Yun Liuli’s raised hand. Chest heaving violently, he couldn’t conceal the anxiousness in his complicated gaze. “I don’t want you to meddle in my affairs!”

Hearing this, Guan Nina couldn’t resist running to Yun Liuli’s side. “Zhou Yuchen, how can you talk like this? Liuli is doing this to help you!”

“I don’t need your help!” Zhou Yuchen shook away Yun Liuli’s hand, shaking all over. “Go! Scram!”

“Is it so easy to leave? Don’t you need to pay the price for beating someone up?” said the guy who was beaten up with clenched teeth.

Yun Liuli tugged at Zhou Yuchen’s arm and pulled him behind her with a cold face…

Yun Liuli suddenly saw those hooligans’ expressions change.

“Miss Liuli…”

She turned around and saw Gu Qingcheng’s assistant and the bodyguards behind him.

After those hooligans fled in fear, Guan Nina went with Zhou Yuchen to attend to his wounds, while Yun Liuli sat in the car by the roadside with Gu Qingcheng’s assistant.

The assistant handed Yun Liuli a document. “Mr. Gu has arranged two teams to secretly protect you. Also, you can get your allowance and claim your expenses with Mrs. Fu!”

“What is this?” Yun Liuli asked with the documents raised.

“These are some assets under Mr. Gu’s name, including the apartment at the Cloud Top Condominium. He wants to transfer all these into Miss Liuli’s name! Mr. Gu has already signed the documents!” explained the assistant.

The assistant had initially thought that Gu Qingcheng would transfer most, if not all, of his assets to Yun Liuli. But he ended up transferring very few of his assets to her!

Gu Qingcheng had his own considerations. If he were to do the transfer too blatantly… there would be a loophole in his scheme to fake his death.

So, for safety’s sake, he could only give Yun Liuli a little.

Yun Liuli sniffled. “Where is he?”

“Mr. Gu is busy…”

That was as good as not answering her at all!

Yun Liuli said nothing. Since she walked into the elevator… she knew that it would be several years before they got to meet again.

Yun Liuli got out of the car with those documents in hand…

At the entrance of a pharmacy not far away, Guan Nina was holding antiseptic and a cotton ball dipped in the antiseptic. Zhou Yuchen was sitting on the stool at the entrance of the pharmacy, his eyes fixed on the car Yun Liuli was in.

Seeing Yun Liuli get out of the car, Zhou Yuchen gradually unclenched his fists.

“Miss Liuli!” The assistant got out of the car with her. Gazing at Yun Liuli, he said after a long while, “Take care!”

“Please… please take good care of him! Please!” Yun Liuli sounded choked.

The assistant nodded before getting back into the car.

After watching as the assistant drove away, Yun Liuli walked towards Zhou Yuchen and Guan Nina. She saw Guan Nina holding the antiseptic with reddened eyes. Yun Liuli stuffed the documents into Guan Nina’s arms, then took the cotton ball from her and began poking at the corner of Zhou Yuchen’s lips with it…

“Ouch…”

Zhou Yuchen gasped in silence, holding himself back from making a sound.

After Yun Liuli tended to Zhou Yuchen’s wound, she handed him an ice pack for him to hold against his wound and said, “Do you know that the child of the nanny who used to take care of you… was implicated by you?”

Zhou Yuchen tightened his hold on the ice pack as he nodded.

“Do you know that Guan Nina and I were nearly implicated by you today?”

Zhou Yuchen looked up at Yun Liuli, perplexed. However, before his eyes met her clear ones, he lowered his gaze. “I asked you two to leave! You…”

“You shouldn’t have asked us to leave! You should have pretended not to care…” Yun Liuli imparted what she learned from Gu Qingcheng to Zhou Yuchen. “Someone is only able to threaten you when they know your weakness! But if you don’t care… that will no longer be your weakness, and they won’t use it to threaten you anymore, because it’s meaningless and a waste of time! Do you get what I’m saying?”

Zhou Yuchen was looking down, his brows furrowed.

“Back then, when Xiao Yuan got his men to come to you with that child, if you had nabbed one of them and beaten him as hard as you could, do you think they’d bring that child to you again? If it was of no use, why would they waste their time doing it? It was your cowardice… that told them that they were right, that the child is your weakness!

“Hence, they will threaten you time and time again with the child! And just now… you agitatedly asked us to scram. That was as good as telling them… that Guan Nina and I are your good friends, that we are also your weaknesses!”

Guan Nina was speechless.

Did Zhou Yuchen ask her to scram just now?

Zhou Yuchen merely held onto the ice pack and didn’t utter a word.

“I couldn’t tell, but you’re actually quite softhearted!” Yun Liuli deliberately antagonized Zhou Yuchen with her words. “Being softhearted is, frankly speaking, just cowardice sometimes!”

“You threw a fit and refused to continue staying at the hospital because you thought I had gone overseas?” Yun Liuli offered him weighty advice, saying, “Zhou Yuchen, have you not heard that all good things must come to an end? At school, I helped you… because I regard you as a friend. But after we graduate, we need to part ways and lead our own lives. What will you do then?”

“Liuli…” Guan Nina called out to Yun Liuli softly, tugging at her arm, wanting to stop her from continuing.

“What I said may not sound pleasant. But Zhou Yuchen… I’m a top-scoring student, while you’re an academic loser! Once out of school, we’ll be on two different paths. Perhaps other than reunion gatherings, we won’t cross paths. I might not even go to some laughable reunion gathering! Don’t tell me you’re going to bemoan your fate then?”

Yun Liuli’s words were like a knife, stabbing into Zhou Yuchen’s heart.

In the past, Yun Liuli had spoken too gently to Zhou Yuchen.
