Chapter 1090 - I’ll Keep You Company!

Zhou Yuchen’s hands were placed on his knees. His whole body stiffened, and he looked down…
Every time he got his hair cut, he wouldn’t let the hairdresser touch his bangs. He’d always have the hair on the back of his head cut roughly, and then he’d go home and trim his bangs himself. That way, other people wouldn’t be able to see his weird eyes.

But since Yun Liuli brought him here, he would definitely have to get his bangs cut. He was terrified of the disgusted glances that other people would give him.
While he sat and waited, Zhou Yuchen got the idea of backing out. Just when he wanted to get up and find an excuse to leave, the staff member invited him and Yun Liuli inside, saying that two hairdressers could now attend to them.
Zhou Yuchen’s hands clenched tightly into fists at his sides. Yun Liuli said to him,
Don’t worry! I’ll keep you company!

Those last words caused Zhou Yuchen to have a weird feeling in his heart, and he didn’t know what it was.
He clearly didn’t like Yun Liuli!
They were the same type of people…
Zhou Yuchen nodded after a while. After he and Yun Liuli washed their hair, they walked towards the vacant chairs.
Zhou Yuchen sat down and watched as the hairdresser wrapped the hair cutting cape around his shoulders. His heart was beating especially quickly. Yun Liuli turned to the hairdresser and told him,
Cut his hair any way you like, so long as he looks more cheerful and like a normal university student!


Zhou Yuchen didn’t say anything to that.
Yun Liuli then sat down beside Zhou Yuchen and gestured the hair length that she wanted to the hairdresser.
Will I look more mature if I cut my hair this short?


No, no! You’re pretty, so you’ll look young no matter what hairstyle you have!
replied the hairdresser, who misunderstood what Yun Liuli meant and panicked.
Her neck-length hair could be tied back in a short ponytail. If she let it down, she would look more feminine.
Yun Liuli was amazingly beautiful, so the hairdresser was partially telling the truth.
Yun Liuli’s face fell slightly at the hairdresser’s words. She wanted to look more mature because she didn’t want Gu Qingcheng to treat her as a kid all the time.

Then… what hairstyle should I have to look more mature?
Yun Liuli looked at the hairdresser through the mirror with her large eyes.
Their eyes met, and the hairdresser immediately realized he had said the wrong thing earlier. He bent down and gently combed through her hair as he said,
Then I’ll cut your hair to the length you want, and I won’t give you bangs. A side part will make you look mature and sophisticated!

When Yun Liuli heard this, she smiled and nodded.
Okay! We’ll go with that!

Zhou Yuchen looked towards Yun Liuli’s smiling reflection as he sat beside her. This was the first time he’d seen Yun Liuli smile so many times.

More than all the times she’d smiled in school combined!
In the past, Zhou Yuchen always paid attention to Du Yingzi, and Du Yingzi was always with Yun Liuli, so it was hard not to notice her!
Yun Liuli was known as the
ice queen
for a reason!
As Zhou Yuchen was absorbed in staring at Yun Liuli’s reflection, the hairdresser snipped at his hair. The hair in front of Zhou Yuchen’s eyes cascaded down to the floor, and everything in front of him was suddenly bright.
Hearing the hairdresser gasp from behind, Zhou Yuchen’s hands clenched tightly into fists underneath the hair cutting cape as he instinctively looked down.

This young man is so handsome!
the hairdresser said softly. He looked towards Yun Liuli and suddenly understood everything!
His girlfriend was so pretty, so the young man would obviously be good looking! That went without saying!
Zhou Yuchen’s body stiffened upon hearing this. He didn’t dare look up, as he wasn’t sure if the hairdresser meant what he said.

He is handsome!
Yun Liuli looked in Zhou Yuchen’s direction.
Zhou Yuchen had very defined features and extremely fair skin, such that he didn’t pale in comparison to Yun Liuli when they stood together. He had the childishness and purity of a young boy, and he was shy yet handsome, causing him to look attractive yet adorable. When he silently pursed his lips, he looked cold and aloof. The injuries on his face and the blood on the corners of his lips and forehead made him look especially fierce and handsome!
No matter which way one looked at him, Zhou Yuchen was one of the rare few young men who looked attractive yet handsome. It wouldn’t be a stretch to call him strikingly good-looking.
When he heard Yun Liuli say that, Zhou Yuchen mustered the courage to look in her direction with his abnormal eyes. He was embarrassed.
His gaze was clear underneath his wide, hooded eyelids. As he stared at Yun Liuli, he seemed to swallow back his words.

His eyes are very pretty, just like the Persian cat I used to have when I was younger!
Yun Liuli stared straight into Zhou Yuchen’s eyes, her gaze full of appreciation and not disgust.
When Yun Liuli was younger, she had a pet Persian cat, and she loved it very much. Its eyes were of different colors, with one side being amber and the other blue.
Zhou Yuchen felt vulnerable under Yun Liuli’s gaze as she stared at him with her bright and dark eyes. It was hard for the tips of his ears to not turn red.
Yun Liuli’s smile widened. It was as if she’d stared at him to get a good look at him.
Zhou Yuchen, you’re the second-most handsome guy I’ve ever met!

Zhou Yuchen’s ears quickly turned bright red, and his heart thumped quickly. He felt his blood rush to his limbs such that even his injured fingers were burning and itchy, seeming as if he was suddenly going to regrow new fingernails.
Zhou Yuchen couldn’t describe what the feeling was, but he couldn’t stare into Yun Liuli’s eyes any longer. His nails dug into his palms as he thought about what she just said. The second-most handsome guy…
Then, who was the most handsome man she’d ever met?
Was it her father?
Right, daughters take after their fathers after all… Yun Liuli was so pretty, so her father had to be an extremely attractive man.
Zhou Yuchen secretly stole a glance at Yun Liuli’s reflection in the mirror. She closed her eyes and gave the hairdresser free rein with her hair. Her features were delicate, pretty, and pure.
Zhou Yuchen’s heart beat faster, and he quickly averted his eyes from the mirror. He couldn’t describe the emotions that were swirling through his heart. He tried hard to control himself from looking towards Yun Liuli, but his eyes couldn’t help but slowly look in her direction.
Yun Liuli seemed to be enjoying herself. Underneath the long white cloth, her legs were crossed together as she casually shook her feet.
He thought that people like him would be timid and overly cautious, but Yun Liuli wasn’t…
She had been saved before.
Zhou Yuchen watched as Yun Liuli gently shook her feet. He wanted to be saved too…
Would Yun Liuli… save him?
Zhou Yuchen closed his eyes, and the corners of his mouth subconsciously curved upwards.
Actually, Yun Liuli had already saved him. It was just as she said… people had to save themselves!
After 20 minutes, Zhou Yuchen’s haircut was done.
The employees in the hair salon were stunned by his handsome features, which were no longer hidden by his hair. They really had… never seen such an attractive guy before.

Handsome! It’s done! You can open your eyes and look now. I can make changes if you’re not satisfied!
The hairdresser looked at Zhou Yuchen. He had really never seen such an attractive young man before. Even movie stars couldn’t compare to him!
