Chapter 104

"Although I don't know why you have such a bizarre temper, how could a normal person fight with someone over something like this?"

Ning Shuang rolled her eyes at Wu Liang; she could roughly guess the reason.

If she wasn't mistaken, there was a 99% chance that it was because Di Yue's group of idiots mocked Wu Liang's pompadour hairstyle.

Although Wu Liang no longer wears the pompadour hairstyle, it remains a sore spot for Wu Liang.

"But Wu Liang, can you answer one thing for me?"

Ning Shuang looked at the school building in front of her and gradually stopped walking.

She still couldn't ignore the girl who appeared in the video.

Why is that girl named Han Yu there, and why is she with the Rat?

"About Han Yu."

Wu Liang sighed heavily. He knew Ning Shuang would definitely ask him about Han Yu.

After all, there was still an unclear relationship between Ning Shuang and Han Yu, especially since he didn't know what Han Yu had said to Ning Shuang that day.

However, Ning Shuang was able to open up to him about her dark and gloomy past, and was able to remove her heavy makeup and give up her identity as a delinquent girl.

All of this can be attributed to Han Yu; if Han Yu hadn't provoked Ning Shuang...

He and Ning Shuang are probably just ordinary friends who get together to chat and gossip.

Without Han Yu, Wu Liang wouldn't have been able to gain a deeper understanding of Ning Shuang's past, and Ning Shuang wouldn't have been able to drop her pretense in front of him.

Since his conversation with Ning Shuang at the Star Gazing Tower, Wu Liang can now clearly feel that the distance between him and Ning Shuang has narrowed considerably.

In fact, given the current situation, he should even thank Han Yu.

(Han Yu: I'm so angry! #%@#...@JPY@!#...)

"I didn't mean anything by it, I was just curious why you two were together."

"I remember your relationship was just that of ordinary classmates, but Han Yu back then was clearly..."

Ning Shuang bit her fingertip and said in confusion, "I saw Han Yu's almost sickly smile in that video."

She usually looks like a completely harmless and gentle girl.

But Han Yu's murderous intent when talking to her, and his disdain when facing the Di Yue thugs, were both evident.

Han Yu is like a two-faced person, making people feel uneasy and unable to fathom his thoughts.

It was as if Wu Liang was the only person in the other person's eyes, like a madman who was obsessed with Wu Liang.

"Actually, I am also very puzzled by this. Why does Han Yu seem so strange?"

"I could sense her oddness, and I could also sense her almost pathological emotions."

Wu Liang glanced at Ning Shuang and said indifferently.

He wasn't so oblivious as to not notice a girl's feelings for him.

Although he couldn't be sure at first, he did notice Han Yu 'Han Yu feelings during his subsequent interactions with her.

The undisguised, naked gaze made him uncomfortable, as if it intended to pierce through him.

Han Yu was infatuated with him with an almost twisted and insane emotion.

"Oh? I thought you were a bamboo that never bore fruit for a thousand years and never blossomed for ten thousand years."

"So you can also sense the feelings girls have for you?"

Ning Shuang raised an eyebrow in surprise. Wu Liang could actually sense the girl's infatuation with him?

"Hmph, is that even a question? I'm not that stupid."

"Besides, how could I not notice Han Yu's feelings, which had almost reached their peak?"

Wu Liang sighed; in fact, he had only recently realized this.

The opportunity arose when he faced Di Yue's thugs.

After all, the love and chilling infatuation in Han Yu's eyes behind him were just too intense.

"Really? But I still think you're a blockhead~"

A hint of helplessness flashed deep in Ning Shuang's eyes.

Wu Liang was probably the only one who could sense this intense emotion... If he encountered a girl who knew how to hide her feelings... Wu Liang, being such a blockhead, wouldn't have noticed at all...

"I heard you mention my name. May I join your conversation?"

Just as Wu Liang and Ning Shuang continued to walk forward, Han Yu, who had been waiting at the school gate for a long time, was smiling at the two of them.

What a coincidence, we meet again, Miss Ning Shuang...

Chapter 45: Han Yu's Duality (Bonus Chapter for Monthly Tickets 9/32)

"I overheard you two talking about my name. Are you discussing something very interesting?"

Han Yu skipped and hopped over to Wu Liang and Ning Shuang, smiling as she spoke.

But most of the attention was drawn to Ning Shuang's delicate face, a fleeting glint of frost in her eyes.

It seems she made a mistake earlier; I didn't expect this woman who always wears heavy makeup to actually be quite attractive.

"Han Yu..."

Ning Shuang looked at Han Yu, who appeared before them like a ghost, with a complicated expression.

She didn't know how to face this girl, who was as elusive as a ghost.

Especially her strange personality, which is very dangerous. Han Yu is like a venomous snake lurking in the shadows.

Or perhaps it's a persistent evil spirit that will relentlessly pursue you no matter where you flee.

Ning Shuang had never met a girl who could lure others into a deep abyss with just a few words.

Han Yu is several times, even dozens of times, more terrifying than any of the bad guys she has encountered over the years.

"What did you hear...?"

Ning Shuang habitually reached for the handbag at her waist.

But she quickly realized that she no longer needed the mask.

After explaining her true feelings to Wu Liang, she no longer needed to pretend.

Wu Liang is right. If she continues to pretend, she will only sink deeper and become more vulnerable.

People who dare not even face their past will never learn to be strong.

"Huh? I didn't hear anything. I only saw Wu Liang and Ning Shuang chatting."

"I saw that you two were having a very pleasant conversation, so I wanted to know what you were talking about."

Han Yu slowly walked to Wu Liang's side, keeping a half-body distance between them.

A bright smile graced her small face, and her crescent-shaped eyes gave her an innocent beauty.

"Han Yu, aren't you tired?"

After a long silence, Wu Liang looked at Han Yu beside him with some confusion.

Why does this girl have to go to such lengths? Doesn't she get tired of wearing that fake smile every day?

Although he didn't know Han Yu very well, he knew that Han Yu's true personality was definitely not as naive as he saw her now.

"Hmm? What does Wu Liang mean by this?"

Han Yu was still smiling at Wu Liang, but the smile on her lips gradually froze.

The lively atmosphere around her quietly dissipated, and she tilted her head, looking at Wu Liang with a puzzled expression.

"Your true self isn't like this at all; this is just a facade."

"The person you were when you were facing Di Yue and the others was your true self, wasn't that right?"

Wu Liang frowned. He had thought Han Yu was just an ordinary, naive, and soft-spoken girl.

But judging from the current situation, this is not the case; Han Yu's naivety is merely an act.

Han Yu is far more complex than he imagined; this girl is much more complicated than he thought.

"I just can't stand those people in Di Yue."

"Besides, it was Wu Liang who solved it in the end, so it had nothing to do with me."

Han Yu smiled somewhat embarrassedly, realizing that Wu Liang had definitely misunderstood her.

She was just a weak woman; she would have been terrified to death if she had faced those people from the Imperial Moon Academy.

"Han Yu, why do you pretend to be innocent and naive in front of outsiders?"

"Whether it's your true nature or your feelings for me, I already know pretty much everything."

Wu Liang slowly took out his phone and logged into the academy's official website.

He casually clicked on a video that had already been pushed to the top and showed it to Han Yu.

The video was filmed by first-year students present and includes the process of Wu Liang and Di Yue fighting.

At first glance, there seems to be nothing wrong, but upon closer inspection, Han Yu can be found in the bottom right corner of the video.

"Han Yu, you don't need to hide anything from me and Wu Liang. We know everything."

Ning Shuang leaned closer to Wu Liang; she still couldn't understand Han Yu's actions.

If Han Yu was merely infatuated with Wu Liang, why would she go to such lengths?

"Who gave you permission to speak, you ugly woman?"

Han Yu, who was staring at Wu Liang's phone, suddenly spoke in a cold voice.

With her deep purple eyes glaring at Ning Shuang, she said, "Don't think I won't say anything just because Wu Liang is here with you."

She's just a disposable tool; where does Ning Shuang get the audacity to lecture her?

"Han Yu, what exactly do He Xue and your classmates mean to you?"

Wu Liang got straight to the point, saying that he had a pretty good understanding of what kind of person Han Yu was.

However, there was also a reason why Han Yu specifically wanted to show it to him.

Perhaps it was because Han Yu was tired, or perhaps she hoped he would notice her.

Even Han Yu herself probably didn't realize that she had actually been hinting at Wu Liang's true nature in many ways.

The video in my hand is playing a clip of Wu Liang fighting with the thugs, and in that clip, in an inconspicuous corner...

Han Yu was stepping on a thug's cheek, grinning with a twisted expression.

That morbidly sadistic smile, combined with the bloodstains on Han Yu's face, made him look like a demon.

Especially after Han Yu stomped on and broke the thug's finger, the look on his face when he looked at Wu Liang was one of pure ecstasy.

"Oh, Wu Liang found out. Was I a little too careless?"

"This is so boring. I thought I could at least fool the second-year high school students."

"But it doesn't matter anyway, I'm pretty tired of it, I don't want to play this boring pretend game anymore."

The smile on Han Yu's face vanished instantly, leaving only boredom and indifference.

The innocent and naive girl vanished on the spot, replaced by a woman exuding an aura of lethargy and utter eeriness.

"I'm almost sick of playing this innocent and cute character."

"Since that's the case, then I'll be frank with you, Wu Liang, do you prefer the old me or the current me?"

Han Yu strode up to Wu Liang and looked at Wu Liang expectantly.

Is the current version of myself more charming, or was the innocent and adorable version of myself from the past more charming?

P. S.: Ah, November has passed just like that, and a new month has begun!
