Youyou was heartbroken as he tightened his arms around her.

With the last of her strength, Shanshan said to the boy, "Youyou must become braver… when I'm not around… oh!"

The boy gripped her hand tightly, his vision blurring. Gradually, Shanshan's hand slipped weakly from his palm…

There was a booming sound, as if something had exploded inside his head! He finally understood…

Then, he heard muffled footsteps coming from behind him.

The boy released Shanshan and placed her carefully onto the ground. He stood up and turned around just as the young man came up to him. The young man was a full head taller than him and had a similar face though not exactly the same, for his features were filled with malice.

The boy looked straight back at him without fear or timidity. The young man was slightly surprised to see him like this. He pressed on and came closer. "Oh? You're not running anymore?"

"Can one hide forever?" Instead of retreating, Youyou stepped closer to the boy.

"I understand now. Shanshan was one of the personalities in my body. She was timid and afraid. No matter what, she was always careful, hesitant, and worried about what she'd stand to lose. She represented the timid personality in me! Now, she… she's dead. It also means that I won't be as timid as before."

The young man winced for a moment, his eyes narrowing fiercely.

"You got rid of my cowardice."

Youyou slowly put his hands behind his back. Up against his back was a pair of scissors that he had secretly hidden in his belt pouch. Earlier on, when he was exploring the room, he saw the pair of scissors. Out of self-preservation, he kept them on hand.

The young man looked down at him and sneered. "Do you think you're my match? Hmph! You overestimate yourself!" Then he strode forward, reached out, and took the boy by the throat, lifting him easily.

The young man was so arrogant that he did not take Youyou seriously even though he knew that the boy had a weapon!

Could this personality represent the violence in his body?! It was this personality that had hurt Mommy! Confirming this, Youyou began to struggle violently.

However, the young man was too strong.

Slowly, his feet left the ground. Struggling, Youyou tightened his grip on the scissors and thrust them recklessly at his arm!

When the young man saw this out of the corner of his eye, he raised his other hand. Almost effortlessly, he clamped down on the attacking hand and gripped the wrist so hard that the boy winced. The grip loosened and the scissors clattered to the floor.

"I told you, no matter how many of you there are, you're no match for me!" Perhaps it was the fury of the boy's attack, but the violent tendency of the young man erupted fully and he viciously threw the boy off.

The boy suddenly felt as light as a kite. Eventually, he landed heavily on the table. He tumbled to the ground and curled up in pain. The young man walked up to him and looked down at him. Then he raised his foot and kicked him aside disdainfully.

Youyou had no chance of fighting back.

"You must be Yun Tianyou?"
