Chapter 1074: I’m Gu Qingcheng
Putting aside that she was a well-behaved girl in school, she was also beautiful. Her results sat her firmly in first place across the entire level, being far better than the person in second place.
High school was a time when people started to develop feelings of love. There were many of Yun Liuli’s classmates, seniors, and juniors who had wooed her, but Yun Liuli had rejected all of them, becoming an unattainable presence in their high school.
Furthermore, the teachers would often use Yun Liuli as an example when they preached to the others. As time passed by, everyone started to stay away from her. She didn’t mind this too much and would always be by herself.
Ever since she was young, Yun Liuli hadn’t been good at getting along with others. Most of the time, she’d be ignorant about things, feeling that she wasn’t able to get along with her classmates. So, she decided not to attempt to do so.
Due to this, Yun Liuli’s parents had even taken her to a psychiatrist. The doctor said that Yun Liuli was asocial and more of an introvert, perhaps even being slightly autistic. However, her condition wasn’t serious and could be corrected.
Yun Liuli’s parents had gone through a lot of effort over this. When Yun Liuli was still in middle school, seeing that the person who sat next to her was a girl, they had given the girl’s parents some advantages so that the girl would be friends with their daughter.
Back then, the girl sitting next to Yun Liuli thought about how to talk to Yun Liuli every day. There were times that Yun Liuli would only reply with “en” or nod, but her classmate remained very patient, revealing a beaming smile that was like the sun toward Yun Liuli.
Yun Liuli didn’t know how she should react towards the various pieces of gossip that her classmate kept telling her, but she’d feel annoyed at times. However, this classmate always claimed to be her good friend, and as time passed, Yun Liuli started to be influenced by her…
She felt that even though her classmate’s chattering was a little annoying, she didn’t really hate her, so she let her be.
When the monthly test results came out, Yun Liuli saw a slap mark on her classmate’s face on the second day. She only took a second glance, but before she asked anything, her classmate said that her results were bad and that her mom had hit her.
Yun Liuli remained silent for a while, but in the end, she couldn’t leave her be and decided to help her. Given Yun Liuli’s intelligence, she never had to take notes during class. However, for the sake of her good friend, Yun Liuli sacrificed her reading time to tidy up notes. She even highlighted the main points for her, explaining the questions that her classmate couldn’t understand.
When Yun Liuli started explaining the questions to her, she was very surprised. Working on the principle that her parents told her, which was to let the Yun family’s daughter speak more, she started to bring Yun Liuli to explain the questions that others didn’t know how to solve. This built up quite a good reputation for Yun Liuli.
Yun Liuli’s explanations were easier to understand than the teachers’ teachings. In class, she would always knock on her classmate’s desk to give her a warning when she got lost in thought, thereby bringing her results up to be in the top ten in the level. Yun Liuli had been explaining questions to her classmates, and her notes were also being circulated in the class, so their class’s overall results had improved by quite a lot.
Later on, there was once when Yun Liuli went to the bathroom because her period came. However, she didn’t bring along any sanitary napkins. She was about to message her friend to help her buy some when she overheard her friend chatting and laughing together with a few other girls as they entered the bathroom.
“If my mom and dad hadn’t forced me to, do you think I’d be willing to spend time with that Yun Liuli?”
Yun Liuli could tell from the voice of her “good friend” that she had strong disgust for her.
Yun Liuli frowned, her heart feeling like it was twisted together.
“You’re quite pitiful as well. Your parents’ jobs are under her dad’s control! For the sake of your parents, you’re forced to get along with Yun Liuli…”
“That Yun Liuli is too detestable. Just because she’s beautiful, she puts up such a front. Who is she showing that cool appearance to? She had notes that could help raise the class’s results, yet she hid them for herself. It’s as if she’s afraid that someone else will steal her first place position!”
“That’s true. If Xiao Xia hadn’t shared the notes with us, our grades wouldn’t have improved by so much!”
Yun Liuli, who was in the stall, furrowed her brows very tightly. Her mind was filled with the line that… she was forced to get along with Yun Liuli because of her parents.
That day, Yun Liuli didn’t even return back to class. She applied for leave and went straight home.
She continued to be in a daze for a long time. She only went back to school as usual after two days of rest.
However, Yun Liuli no longer gave any reply to her classmate’s questions.
From that day onward, Yun Liuli completely shut herself away in her own little world. It was as if all words or events in the outside world were irrelevant to her.
Yun Liuli remembered that during physical education class that day, strong winds started to blow suddenly, and after some thunder, big rain droplets started to fall, instantly drenching everyone. Even the air was filled with the smell of soil.
Some more finicky girls screamed and hid under trees, tidying up their hair and clothes, complaining about the weather.
The physical education teacher got all the students to hide from the rain under the roof of the equipment building. Yun Liuli stood by herself in a corner, wearing an indifferent expression as she wiped her glasses, which had blurred from the rainwater, with tissue paper. All the girls seemed to be intentionally keeping their distance from Yun Liuli, and this made her stand out a lot.
The group of girls behind Yun Liuli started to discuss Yun Liuli’s strange character in soft voices. Some people were jealous of Yun Liuli’s beauty and added a few remarks in louder voices. Yun Liuli turned a deaf ear to them.
The boys used their uniforms to shield against the rain, running back to the classroom to bring umbrellas over. The girls shared the umbrellas in pairs and, eventually, in groups of three, smiling and chatting happily as they headed back to the classroom. Yun Liuli was the only one left standing there.
She looked at the falling raindrops in a daze, not even noticing that a large area on the bottom of her trousers was wet.
It was raining, but the temperature continued to be very high. The steaming hot air and humidity kept striking out toward her.
Yun Liuli’s phone, which had been set on vibrate, started to vibrate in her pocket. This brought her back to her senses. Her parents were the only ones who knew her phone number, and they were also the ones who forced her to keep the phone with her. Other than urgent contacts from her parents, the phone was basically useless.
She took out her phone and saw that it was an unfamiliar number.
The rainwater splashed onto the screen, and Yun Liuli slowly wiped it off with the tissue paper she hadn’t thrown away after using it to dry her hair. Only after doing that did she put her phone by her hear, not saying a word.
The phone was placed next to Yun Liuli’s fair and beautiful ear, and when that deep and alluring voice rang out from the phone, it had a hint of coldness to it. It sounded so nice that it made her heart throb…
“I’m Gu Qingcheng. Your father told me to come and fetch you.”
Loud sounds from the rain rang out next to Yun Liuli’s ears, but it didn’t drown away that extremely penetrative voice.
Yun Liuli’s father had told her last night that both her mom and he had things to attend to and thus got a good friend to help take care of her. He was called Gu Qingcheng, and he would bring her over to his place to stay for the weekend.
