Chapter 267 : I will go crazy
Chapter 267 - I will go crazy
Upon hearing this, Ye Sheng lifted her head dazedly, staring at Gu Luoyu.
When she heard Gu Luoyu claim she was Erensu, Ye Sheng's first reaction was disbelief. After all, she had suspected this possibility before, Gu Luoyu's red eyes and pink hair were too similar. But over time, those suspicions had long been dispelled!
How could Gu Luoyu possibly be that vicious, bloodthirsty Erensu?!
This must be a lie...
She refused to believe it!!!
Thinking this, Ye Sheng covered her ears with both hands, adopting a classic ostrich pose of “I can't hear you, I won't listen,” a sight that caused Gu Luoyu, who had just revealed her true identity, to feel her prior tension and anxiety magically ease.
She quietly let out a breath.
She had committed countless evil deeds under the name Erensu. Although she knew Ye Sheng held a neutral view toward Erensu, without any particular hatred or favor, she still felt anxious.
She feared seeing disgust on Ye Sheng's face.
After all, Gu Luoyu was Erensu, and Erensu was Gu Luoyu. They were one and the same, inescapable past and future. If Ye Sheng came to hate her, even if Gu Luoyu could suppress her emotions, her heart would still be ache.
Because Ye Sheng was her chosen partner, her beloved, more important than anyone else.
Gu Luoyu wanted Ye Sheng to stand by her side forever, never regretting even if it was meant to be walking down a wrong path, even if it was meant to be opposing everyone else. Gu Luoyu admitted she was inherently wicked, despite possessing a deceivingly beautiful face, she couldn't hide the venom in her heart.
Thus, she couldn't stop these dark thoughts from endlessly growing, like a venomous snake coiled on a tree branch, staring coldly at its prey, constantly flicking its red tongue to test the air.
Yet Ye Sheng's appearance had changed Gu Luoyu greatly.
Because Ye Sheng was not only a delicious, tempting prey, but also an intimate lover, and the leash tethering a vicious dog...
“Luoyu, this joke isn't funny at all. If you want to change the subject, you don't have to exaggerate like this!”
After Ye Sheng gradually came back to her senses, she shook her head at Gu Luoyu. The words she spoke made Gu Luoyu blink, realizing Ye Sheng wanted to drop the topic.
But Gu Luoyu wasn't willing to let it go.
Strike while the iron is hot. Now was the perfect moment to detonate the bomb hanging over her head, to avoid living in constant fear of exposure later. And once she confessed to Ye Sheng, she could act more freely without needing to fabricate excuses to hide the truth.
So Gu Luoyu didn't take the easy way out. Instead, she wore a sorrowful expression, her red eyes filled with sadness. “Little Sheng, I'm sorry for hiding this from you for so long. Back then, I was framed and attacked by the Gu family. If you hadn't taken me home, I might have died in that garbage dump!”
Gu Luoyu didn't rush to explain further, but that single sentence alone softened Ye Sheng's heart completely.
Hearing about the betrayal and attack, Ye Sheng immediately recalled the first time she'd seen Gu Luoyu, so severely injured, unable to move, unable to speak.
If she hadn't luckily obtained an energy stone to heal her injuries, Gu Luoyu might still be in a vegetative state, trapped within her own body due to the resilient life force of an esper, barely alive.
So it was understood that Gu Luoyu hadn't revealed her identity. After suffering such a devastating blow, even her own family wanting her dead, she naturally wouldn't dare trust others easily.
Thinking this, Ye Sheng bit her lip in sadness, then without saying another word, rushed forward and tightly hugged Gu Luoyu.
Her muffled voice followed, "Gu Luoyu, it's okay. Even if you are Erensu, it doesn't matter. I like you, and that won't change because of your identity!"
Gu Luoyu raised her arms to embrace Ye Sheng, gently stroking the smooth, silky black hair like fine silk, just like a snake coiling around a bird that had flown straight into its trap, or a wicked dragon embracing its most treasured treasure, her heart and eyes filled only with affection.
At this moment, Gu Luoyu couldn't describe her feelings, she felt as if floating in the clouds.
Her entire being feels weightless.
Everything was unfolding exactly as she'd planned. With just a few carefully chosen words, she could guide Ye Sheng to walk forward beside her without hesitation.
Ye Sheng had firmly stood by her side, not distancing herself because of Erensu's abruptly, not showing disgust. Instead, her star-like eyes overflowed with.
Therefore, Gu Luoyu promptly revealed a 'fragile' side, her voice trembling slightly as she asked, “Really? Little Sheng, I've always wanted to tell you, but I was afraid, afraid that once you knew my past, you'd never want to see me again… Just thinking about it makes me so sad! If you were to leave me, I'd go mad.”
“How could I ever!!! Gu Luoyu, I've already boarded your pirate ship, I won't jump off halfway! I'll walk with you all the way, never letting you be alone again.”
Ye Sheng tightened her arms around Gu Luoyu, trying to comfort her with a warm embrace.
She already knew espers in the post-apocalyptic wasteland world were special. As their powers grew stronger, their minds gradually became unstable. Besides the well-known phenomenon of sudden suicidal madness, killing was also one way to relieve psychological pressure.
So even if Gu Luoyu had committed many evil deeds, it wasn't by choice.
Now that she had Ye Sheng, and with her mental soothing ability already maxed out, treating Gu Luoyu's psychological issues would be effortless.
She will never again act irrationally due to mental breakdown.
However, because Gu Luoyu had confessed to being Erensu, Ye Sheng silently decided she would keep a close eye on her from now on, ready to provide treatment at any moment.
And upon hearing Ye Sheng's gentle words, Gu Luoyu felt deeply moved, and also realized she had successfully passed the test of revealing her past identity.
She no longer needed to hide.
Her Little Sheng was truly so warm, making Gu Luoyu feel as if her dark, icy heart was now being warmed, slowly melting from ice into water, gradually thawing.
Gu Luoyu smiled and hugged Ye Sheng tighter. But just as she was about to say something else, the Ye Sheng in her arms suddenly began to struggle, quickly stepping back several paces, breaking free from the embrace.
This made Gu Luoyu look down in confusion, unsure of what had happened. Fortunately, they had already resolved their issues, and there was no conflict or dissent between them, otherwise, Gu Luoyu wasn't sure what she might have done.
But Ye Sheng had somehow turned serious, her cheerful expression gone. She asked sternly, “So, Miss Gu Luoyu, holder of the Erensu identity card, exactly what's wrong with your psychic energy?”
