After class, some young girls went over to talk to Zhou Yuchen and awkwardly asked him what kind of detergent he used.
However, Zhou Yuchen didn't reply to any of them. He packed up his books and said to Yun Liuli, "Let's go. Don't we still need to go somewhere?"
Zhou Yuchen had not forgotten about this.
Yun Liuli nodded. Just as she was about to get up, she saw Guan Nina tugging at her sleeve and looking at her anxiously, like a puppy begging Yun Liuli to bring her along!
Yun Liuli turned around and asked Zhou Yuchen for his opinion. "Why don't we let her tag along?"
Zhou Yuchen didn't even look at Guan Nina and only said, "Whatever you say!"
These words didn't sound like they belonged to Class 1. Even Guan Nina wanted to back out. Yun Liuli was so pretty. Could it be that Zhou Yuchen had already fallen for Yun Liuli? If that was the case, wouldn't she be asking for trouble by going?
But judging from Yun Liuli's tone, it didn't seem like she liked Zhou Yuchen anymore!
He then recalled that Yun Liuli wasn't good at being tactful and was always straightforward with her words.
If Yun Liuli liked Zhou Yuchen, she would definitely tell him directly, "This is the person I like, and you can't woo him anymore."
At the thought of this, Guan Nina felt relieved again. She packed her books and followed them out.
Zhou Yuchen didn't know what he was feeling. In the past, he had always been afraid of seeing the disgusted gazes of others, but now that Yun Liuli was standing next to him and seeing how others were looking at him with anticipation and amazement, Zhou Yuchen wasn't as happy as he had expected.
Perhaps it was because none of them were people that Zhou Yuchen cared about.
Zhou Yuchen turned his head sideways and glanced at Yun Liuli, who was talking to Guan Nina. The corners of his lips curled up slightly. It was so beautiful that it was comparable to the green campus scenery. Under the blazing summer sun, it was so pleasing to the eyes that it was like a refreshing spring.
The chatter of the outside world about Zhou Yuchen seemed to have nothing to do with him. He looked at the road in front of him and felt that he had pulled himself out of the darkness. He stepped on the golden light that fell through the mottled leaves, and there was a smooth road ahead.
Yes, as long as you care about the people you care about.
For example, his mother, the nanny who had been taking care of him, and Yun Liuli …
Even though Zhou Yuchen's mother's figure was a little blurry at this age, he would always remember his mother's gentle voice telling him that he was the most beautiful angel in the world.
There was also the nanny who had always taken care of him. She always stood in front of Zhou Yuchen when others bullied him, saying that Zhou Yuchen was the best child in the world and not some monster.
Now, he had Yun Liuli.
She wanted to save herself from that dark world.
Zhou Yuchen felt that his life was not as bleak as he thought it would be. On the contrary, he was very lucky. At least he always had someone to help him in this life.
Just as Yun Liuli, Zhou Yuchen, and Guan Nina were about to walk out of the school gates, they suddenly heard someone calling for them. The two of them turned and saw Du Yingzi, who was dressed in a long white dress.
Guan Nina recalled what Du Yingzi had said about Zhou Yuchen. She subconsciously glanced at Zhou Yuchen, worried that Du Yingzi might feel awkward when she saw him.
Du Yingzi jogged over. Her waist-length straight hair fluttered on the green, dappled avenue, giving off a youthful vibe.
In the past, if Zhou Yuchen saw Du Yingzi sprinting in his direction like this, he probably wouldn't be able to control his heartbeat!
But now, as he stood next to Yun Liuli, without the bangs that blocked his eyes, he realized that his heart was calm and unperturbed.
Upon realizing this, Zhou Yuchen felt a little happy. From the corner of his eye, he looked at Yun Liuli, who seemed to be able to snatch away all the light just by standing there quietly. He felt extremely at ease.
Du Yingzi jogged over to Yun Liuli and Guan Nina, then raised her head and looked toward Zhou Yuchen. Seeing his eyes of a different color, Du Yingzi's lips curled up. "It's really you, Zhou Yuchen!"
Zhou Yuchen couldn't tell what he was feeling. In the past, he had treated Du Yingzi as a lady who didn't mind his eyes. But after hearing her talk about the color of his eyes to others and that he was a monster, Zhou Yuchen felt upset.
Now, seeing Du Yingzi walk up and greet a monster like him with a smile, Zhou Yuchen nodded. His lips curled up slightly, but he felt a little strange.
Was she not afraid of him now?
"Liuli, you're together with Zhou Yuchen? You're too mean. You didn't even tell us that you were treating us to a meal. You must treat us to a meal!" Du Yingzi was familiar with Yun Liuli, so she held her arm and said this.
Guan Nina was stunned. Didn't Du Yingzi say that Zhou Yuchen was a monster previously? She was scared! Now that she greeted him, wasn't she scared?
Guan Nina tugged at Yun Liuli's arm. Back then, when Du Yingzi said this, they were all present!
"Don't we still have something on? Let's go first!" Guan Nina urged Yun Liuli.
Actually, Guan Nina didn't really like Du Yingzi in the hostel from the start. She felt that although Du Yingzi gave others a good feeling, sometimes, for some reason, Guan Nina felt that she was too slippery and sly.
Especially when it came to Zhou Yuchen. Now that Guan Nina liked Zhou Yuchen and wanted to court him, she was also wary of Du Yingzi.
Based on Guan Nina's understanding of Du Yingzi, she felt that Du Yingzi's words sounded more like a test. She was afraid that after Yun Liuli said that she wasn't a couple with Zhou Yuchen, Du Yingzi would also have the intention to court Zhou Yuchen. That wouldn't be good!
Guan Nina was planning to be the first to enjoy the benefits of a favorable position. She mustn't let Du Yingzi mess things up. After all, Du Yingzi was prettier than Guan Nina.
With Guan Nina's interruption, Yun Liuli didn't even have time to explain before Du Yingzi, who was very understanding, said heartily, "You guys have something on? Then hurry up and go!"
Du Yingzi then looked at Zhou Yuchen. "You should still remember me, right? Let's meet next time!"
When Guan Nina heard Du Yingzi's words, alarm bells went off in her heart. "Let's go!"
After coming out of the school, they hailed a cab. Yun Liuli gave the driver the address, then saw Guan Nina leaning against the front passenger seat's backrest, saying to Zhou Yuchen, "Zhou Yuchen, I don't want to say bad things about Du Yingzi, but if Du Yingzi pursues you, you have to keep an eye on me! I also want to pursue you. It might be a little inappropriate of me to say this, so you have to remember to keep an eye on me as well. Take a good look at me!"
Guan Nina didn't say what Du Yingzi had said about Zhou Yuchen behind his back. She was very reserved with her words, mainly because she was Du Yingzi's roommate after all. Also, she didn't want Zhou Yuchen to feel sad after hearing those words.
