I am in the horror game, scrambling to steal the male lead's halo

Chapter 668: Prejudice in People's Hearts is a Mountain

“Prejudice in people’s hearts is a mountain.”

This was Zhou Zuoran’s answer, and it was also the reason why he did not explain too much to Du Yuzhao at that time.

Because it's totally useless.

Du Yuzhao's dissatisfaction with him has not been just one or two days, but has been going on for a long time.

So, instead of spending time explaining this kind of thing to someone who doesn't believe in him at all, it's better not to explain it.

Besides, he also had selfish motives at the time. Perhaps he wanted to vent something, so he said those words and had a fight with Du Yuzhao.

Gu Chaoxi didn't dwell on this problem anymore, but instead thought of other things.

"Do you know much about Shen Liao?"

I had heard about them from Shen Liao before, but I hadn’t heard anything about Shen Liao from Zhou Zuoran.

She was curious about what Zhou Zuoran thought of Shen Liao, or did Zhou Zuoran know Shen Liao's family?

However, there was still a gap between what Gu Chaoxi had imagined, because after hearing the name, Zhou Zuoran did not react immediately, but took a few steps forward.

Seeing that Gu Chaoxi was still following him, he sighed helplessly.

"If you want to know what Shen Liao looks like, shouldn't you ask Zhou Jie?"

After all, in the story about Shen Liao, Shen Liao was once the girlfriend of Zhou Jie's genius brother.

It was already quite late when Zhou Zuoran arrived here. It should be considered strange that he knew about Shen Liao, right?

"If Zhou Jie was willing to tell me, I wouldn't have asked you."

This is the reason.

Zhou Zuoran felt a little helpless. He opened his mouth, but before he could say anything, he took down the drawing board in his arms.

"Why do you care so much about Shen Liao? What's your relationship with her?"

"I have nothing to do with her, I'm just a little worried about her." After she said that, she raised her hand to lift her hair.

"My friend said that the fourth floor of the museum was temporarily closed today because someone smashed a painting, so I am a little worried."

"It's normal to worry about her."

Gu Chaoxi stopped and looked at Zhou Zuoran. He was silent at first, and after a while, he finally seemed to react. He raised his hands and covered his face with his hands as if he was very sad.

"If you're really worried, I can tell you about her, but I don't really know what her current situation is."

As he spoke, he walked forward carrying the drawing board.

Gu Chaoxi glanced back and found that this location was actually quite some distance away from the cafe.

But Zhou Zuoran didn't seem to be very reassured and continued to walk forward.

So she followed immediately.

Perhaps because of what happened in the morning, Du Yuzhao's wood carving shop is now closed. There is a lock on the door, which looks like a new one.

The two passed by the wood carving shop and turned the corner. Suddenly, there were fewer people here and it seemed a lot quieter.

Zhou Zuoran stopped and walked towards the bench on the street, but no one was sitting there.

Gu Chaoxi took a look and sat down at the seat next to him.

"In fact, I heard about Shen Liao from my elders."

Before coming to this town, Zhou Zuoran heard about Zhou Jie's brother from his elders at home.

A talented painter, he has created many paintings that are worth collecting.

You know, in this era, it is not easy for a few creative geniuses to emerge.

Zhou Zuoran himself is a painter, and he has always had a natural admiration and affinity for people who also paint.

At that time, he really wanted to come here to see what the genius looked like.

But before he arrived, that had already happened.

Of course, we can talk about this later.

Before that, Zhou Zuoran also heard about the genius' girlfriend from his elders.

Zhou Zuoran’s mother said, why would such a great man like such an ordinary girl, who is totally incompatible with his talent.

Probably because of this sentence, Zhou Zuoran went out of his way to find out what a genius’ girlfriend is like.

But in fact, after knowing Shen Liao, Zhou Zuoran's first thought was that this person was a good match for Zhou Jie's brother.

Maybe many people would say that a genius should find a girlfriend who is also a genius.

But it's not.

Precisely because he knows that the path of a genius is not easy, as he carries the expectations and admiration of too many people, he prefers someone who can make him feel at ease.

In Brother Zhou Jie's eyes, Shen Liao is such a person.

He didn't care about his praised talent. Instead, he liked all the new things that Shen Liao brought him.

These things always made him feel happy in depression and feel the colorful world, thus giving him more creative inspiration.

However, not everyone can understand his idea.

For example, his family members didn’t quite understand this feeling, and even felt that Shen Liao’s appearance would only distract him from his creation.

Once upon a time, Zhou Jie's parents interfered with his brother's feelings and wanted Shen Liao to stay away from his brother, the farther the better.

For Shen Liao, she doesn't care whether the other person is a talented painter, or even whether he cares about her in all aspects and is willing to go against the norm for her.

She doesn't need any of these. In fact, she only needs an attitude.

Of course Zhou Jie's brother didn't want to let go.

Therefore, Shen Liao would not do so either. The two of them were not moved at all by the pressure from the outside world.

Later on, Zhou Jie's parents compromised and said they would not care as long as his love life did not affect his creative work and future development.

Of course, they didn't really accept Shen Liao in their hearts.

They just compromised with their talented son.

"If that's the case, why is Zhou Jie never willing to say it?"

"Of course it's because Zhou Jie is jealous."

"Jealous of your brother's talent?"

"Jealous of everything."

After hearing the answer, Gu Chaoxi pursed his lips and remained silent for a while.

Jealous of everything his brother has, that is to say, he is jealous of the relationship between his brother and Shen Liao?

Why would he be jealous of this? Unless Zhou Jie cared about Shen Liao.

As mentioned before, Zhou Jie hated his brother. He hated that his brother's genius stole his parents' love and attention.

If he later cared about the relationship between his brother and Shen Liao, it was only because he cared about Shen Liao very much, but the person Shen Liao cared about was not him.

If Zhou Jie also likes Shen Liao, then many things would have already come to fruition.

Because of jealousy, he lost his mind.

The existence of my brother not only makes my parents no longer love me, but also makes the person I like dislike me and even get together with my brother.

So, he wanted everything to disappear so that he could start all over again.

But what is the result of this?

The result was that his brother and parents died, and Shen Liao went crazy.

Or maybe Shen Liao's madness was just an act.
