Chapter 451: Going Crazy
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Gu Zheng had spent his childhood in the dark. Listening to those mocking voices and enduring the pain brought about by his illness, he felt like he was in hell, struggling at death’s door.
He finally became crazy and was feared by everyone. He became the person in control of the entire Gu family. He could finally escape this pain, but the shadow of his childhood would never disappear.
Only the Lu family and the Gu family new about the things that had happened when he was young. They would often talk about these things as if Gu Zheng was still the kid they used to trample on.
It was just that he was no longer the old him. Now, he was the President Gu who could call the wind and summon the rain. No one could disrespect him, including the Gu family and the Lu family.
The Gu family felt that he was too sharp and pressured him until he could not breathe. Moreover, he also blocked Lu Yan’s path. Therefore, they wanted to make Gu Zheng go completely crazy.
At this moment, Gu Zheng felt a dull pain in his forehead, and his vision became blurry. He felt as if the demon in his body had awakened. That voice kept repeating the words—
‘Kill them! Kill these people who made you suffer!”
“Gu Zheng?” Qiao Xi saw that his body was slightly trembling and his eyes were blood red.
He turned his head slightly and was stunned for a few seconds when he saw Qiao X’s face. In an instant, the demon in his body disappeared and he finally regained his rationality.
Gu Zheng’s voice was hoarse. “Are you afraid of me too?”
At this moment, the two of them had already walked into the house where the light gradually dimmed. Qiao Xi was still able to clearly see their surroundings. She knew that dim lighting was still better than nothing to Gu Zheng.
However, when she met Gu Zheng’s eyes, she was surprised to find that his eyes were not as empty and lifeless as she had expected. Instead, he was staring at her passionately.
Moreover, he could avoid the obstacles under his feet, which meant that he could see clearly even in the dark. However, how was that possible?
Gu Zheng’s eyes were blood red, and a gleam of cold light flashed in his eyes as if a devil had descended onto the earth. “Qiao Xi, tell me. Are you afraid of me?”
‘When he saw that Qiao Xi didn’t answer, the corners of Gu Zheng’s mouth curled into a gloomy smile. Sorrow filled his heart and evoked the madness hidden within it. “So you’re just like them. You think I’m a madman! Good, very good! Now you’ve seen me, you’re right! I’ma madman!”
Flames of fury bumed in his eyes. The Gu Zheng who was usually calm and collected had disappeared. He could explode at any moment.
As soon as he finished speaking, he casually picked up the cup on the table and smashed it heavily onto the ground. The fragments scattered on the ground, appearing especially clear in the silent hall.
Qiao Xi wished for nothing more than to immediately charge over and kill Huang Lilan because she knew that Huang Lilan had intentionally allowed these people to infuriate Gu Zheng. Her objective was to make Gu Zheng go mad.
‘When she thought of this, her heart suddenly trembled. The Gu family would be having a family banquet in the next few days. Many elders and descendants from the branch family were here. Huang Lilan’s true goal was to let everyone see Gu Zheng go crazy.
This way, she would be able to join hands with everyone to oppose Gu Zheng becoming the head of the Gu family. It would be perfectly justifiable.
Although Gu Zheng was very strong, how could the Gu family tolerate a lunatic being their head? If word got out, where would they place their reputation?
Qiao Xi pondered for a moment, but her body was already pressed against the wall by Gu Zheng.
Gu Zheng lowered his head and placed his hands on both sides of her body, controlling her movements. His lips were pale. “You’re seeing it with your own eyes.”
“Ah Zheng, I…”
The man’s lips curled into a bitter smile. “Is it really scary when I go crazy? Even you’re afraid of me? Have you started to hate me?”
Gu Zheng’s rationality was gradually burned away by his rage. He clearly knew that the woman before him was the person he loved, yet he was still unable to control himself. But it was precisely because she was Qiao Xi that Gu Zheng was unable to control his rage. It turned out that even Qiao Xi hated
him!
His scorching palm landed on Qiao Xi’s face and slowly slid down her body, caressing her fair and slender neck before gradually tightening
Qiao Xi didn’t resist and instead indifferently stretched out her hands to embrace his strong waist before lightly closing her eyes.
Gu Zheng’s fiery eyes were filled with coldness.. “Qiao Xi, I won’t allow you to leave me!”
