In the end, Zhou Yuchen didn't want, nor could he bear, to disappoint Yun Liuli…
He had always lived in the dumps, never hoping that there'd be anyone who would come and save him. However, Yun Liuli had reached out a hand to him, saying that she wanted to pull him up!
The appearance of such a person was especially precious to Zhou Yuchen. He was secretly afraid that she'd give up on him as well. If that were to happen, he'd be a pile of mud again!
Therefore, he didn't wish for Yun Liuli to give up on him because she felt disappointed. If even Yun Liuli were to give up on him, then who else in the world would save him?
Yun Liuli intentionally slowed down her pace and headed into school with Zhou Yuchen. Seeing the other students looking in their direction, a thin layer of sweat broke out on Zhou Yuchen's forehead.
The combination of a handsome guy and a beautiful girl would always be eye-catching.
"You look very good, so it's fine for others to look at you!" Yun Liuli talked to Zhou Yuchen as they walked.
Seeing that Zhou Yuchen looked as if he was facing a great foe, she added, "You don't really have to care about how others look at you. Are you really bad if others think that you're bad? Wouldn't it be tiring if all of us were to live according to other people's rumors? We aren't money, so it's impossible to make everyone like us!"
Zhou Yuchen nodded after hearing Yun Liuli's words.
"It's impossible not to care about what everyone thinks in life. You just need to care about what the people you care about think of you!" The words spoken in Yun Liuli's clear voice were very pacifying.
Right, he only had to care… about what the people he cared about thought about him!
Zhou Yuchen turned his head toward Yun Liuli. The young lady pursed her lips, and her eyes curved a little into a hint of a smile. Her gaze gave Zhou Yuchen a breathtaking feeling, causing his heart to throb very quickly.
Yun Liuli and Zhou Yuchen walked together, and it didn't even take two minutes before this news exploded on the school's intranet.
People were saying that there was a handsome guy with Yun Liuli, and they were wondering where he had popped up from. It should be the guy Yun Liuli mentioned before, the one that she liked!
Someone even secretly took a photo of their back views, uploading it to the school's intranet. The person praised the handsome guy to the heavens, saying that he looked handsome and had an exotic charm, seeming to be of mixed blood. He was a perfect fit for Yun Liuli.
There was even someone who asked which school this handsome guy, who had come to send Yun Liuli to school, came from!
Some people also said that if this person was the most handsome guy in his school, he would definitely be the one at the very top of all handsome guys in school!
He looked at the back view in the photo, finding the person a little familiar. It was Xiao Yuan who came out to say, "Isn't this that trash Zhou Yuchen…"
Zhong Qingfei turned and looked toward Xiao Yuan in surprise. He then turned back to look at the photo. It was true… even their clothes were the same.
Xiao Yuan removed the lollipop that was in his mouth and said to Zhong Qingfei, "You didn't go to the gathering yesterday. The few of us saw Yun Liuli and this trash boarding a taxi together. Qingfei… you better withdraw your feelings from Yun Liuli. I'm only persuading you like this because you're my brother!"
Zhong Qingfei didn't say anything, pursing his lips tightly together. He couldn't hide the grief in his eyes, and his throat rolled slightly.
It was because Xiao Yuan knew that Zhong Qingfei's feelings toward Yun Liuli were very strong that he tried to persuade him.
Seeing that Zhong Qingfei was feeling upset and keeping quiet, Xiao Yuan's gaze landed on the photo, killing aura filling his eyes.
Zhong Qingfei saved Xiao Yuan's life in the past. Zhong Qingfei had always been a clean and refreshing person. There were few who were as kindhearted as he was, and his looks were a fit to his character.
Therefore, Xiao Yuan had always treated Zhong Qingfei as his brother, protecting him. Now that Yun Liuli had broken his heart, Xiao Yuan felt angry about it as well.
When Yun Liuli and Zhou Yuchen sat together in the last row in the classroom, almost all eyes in the room turned toward them…
Zhou Yuchen was so nervous that his palms were covered in sweat. However, he kept his back straight, pretending not to care.
Yun Liuli was right next to him, and he didn't want to disappoint her.
Guan Nina had been chatting happily with other students when she saw the handsome guy sitting next to Yun Liuli. Her heart started to thump very quickly.
Guan Nina had never seen such a handsome guy before. She was on good terms with Yun Liuli to begin with, so she went up to her, feeling a little embarrassed as she glanced at the guy next to Yun Liuli, who had distinct features and deep, beautiful eyes. She lowered her voice and asked, "Is this your boyfriend? He's so handsome! You really hid him well! You didn't even tell me despite us being such good friends!"
"What are you saying? This is Zhou Yuchen!" Yun Liuli laughed and introduced her to Zhou Yuchen, saying, "Zhou Yuchen, this is my roommate, Guan Nina!"
Their gazes met, and Guan Nina saw his different colored eyes. She suddenly recalled what Du Yingzi had said in the past…
"I know that Zhou Yuchen you guys are talking about! I met him outside the book store once, and the colors of his eyes are really different, like a monster!"
Guan Nina's breathing was about to stop. How was this a monster? What kind of joke was it to be calling such a handsome guy a monster?
Guan Nina calmed down after a moment of panic when she saw the gaze that Zhou Yuchen was showing her. It was icy, so cold that it would bring a chill to one's spine.
At the thought of how Yun Liuli had been sitting together with Zhou Yuchen all the while a few days ago, there was an additional hint of blame in Guan Nina's gaze when she looked at Yun Liuli. She pinched the soft flesh at Yun Liuli's waist, her voice containing a hint of grief. "You must have known that Zhou Yuchen was so handsome! To think that I even came over to advise you not to get too close to him! You're too sneaky!"
Yun Liuli smiled and asked, "You want to chase after him?"
Guan Nina bit her lip and nodded. "Help me!"
This was a world where people valued looks. Now that Zhou Yuchen revealed his extremely handsome face, which lady wouldn't fall for him?
Yun Liuli neither agreed nor rejected Guan Nina's request…
Yun Liuli and Zhou Yuchen were surrounded by people during class. If Zhou Yuchen wasn't sitting next to a wall, there'd probably have been a girl who sat down right next to him.
The professor felt helpless. During that class, most of the people were sneaking looks at the handsome guy and beautiful lady in the last row. There wasn't anyone paying attention to his class!
After that lesson, Zhou Yuchen's name created a storm throughout the entire campus.
His photo was also put up. No one had expected Zhou Yuchen to be hiding such a great appearance under his fringe.
The students who sat around Zhou Yuchen during that class saw him wearing his old clothes, but none of them smelled anything bad coming from him!
Everyone understood what was going on in almost an instant. It wasn't that Zhou Yuchen had only worn a single set of clothes throughout the year, it was just that all of his clothes were the same!
Not only was Zhou Yuchen not smelly, but there was a faint scent of detergent coming from him that smelled especially pleasant.
