Go Wild In His Paranoid Mind - Chapter 2

 

After her rebirth, when it came to taking care of things, Bianbian no longer resisted like in her previous life.

 

On this day in her previous life, while being pulled by her aunt and uncle to the front of the Gu family’s house, she screamed and hugged the garden railing, unwilling to enter even in death.

 

She said she was scared and didn’t want to be with the monster. The monster would eat her up! There wouldn’t be any bones left!

 

This also made Gu Huaibi’s parents feel quite awkward. Due to her resistance, they sent Bianbian back to the Zheng family within a few days.

 

The tragedy of Bianbian’s life began from then on.

 

Her aunt lost the promised gratitude money due to her stubbornness, and her attitude towards her plummeted. She left all the household chores to her and often scolded her, seeing her as a thorn in her side.

 

Bianbian’s grades got worse each year, and she couldn’t get into college. She had to drop out of school and go out to work, experiencing the hardships of life.

 

When she was twenty-three years old, she met the man she had never wanted to get close to—Gu Huaibi.

 

Bianbian was kept in a square glass box, with high lights shining down from above, illuminating her fair and tender skin. She was dressed in the clothes of a bunny girl for people to enjoy and bid for.

 

At that time, Bianbian possessed a stunning beauty that drove all the men in the city crazy.

 

The bunny girl held her knees, trembling, and tears streamed down her face, just like a frightened little rabbit.

 

This frightened appearance further provoked the men’s crazy desire to possess her, and they all offered exorbitant prices for her.

 

Gu Huaibi, dressed in a suit and leather shoes, sat on the last row of chairs, staring at her expressionlessly, with waves surging in his pitch black eyes.

 

Suddenly, with just a flick of his finger, countless men in black suits broke into the auction, took control of the scene, and called the police to arrest all those involved in this illegal transaction.

 

She looked around in horror, overwhelmed.

 

Gu Huaibi rose slowly and came to her, looking down at her from a high position.

 

Her gaze trembled; afraid to meet his eyes, she could only look at his neck.

 

The suit shirt blocked his slender and fair neck, revealing a hint of abstinence.

 

Bianbian nervously withdrew her gaze and sat in the glass debris, holding her knees. She was extremely afraid.

 

Suddenly, the man took off his suit jacket and draped it over her, covering her vast, fair skin.

 

Although the expensive suit material was hard, it carried the man’s body temperature and felt very warm at the same time.

 

That was the first time she looked up at him—the terrifying “monster” that people had described as someone who had a genetic mutation.

 

The monster wasn’t ugly at all. His facial features were exquisitely delicate, and his deep, hazel-colored pupils seemed to have light.

 

His expression was aloof and noble, and every inch of his skin was like a miracle of creation.

 

Startling both the heavens and the people.

 

Where was the monster? He was clearly a deity!

 

……

 

Countless times after, Bianbian recalled the day she first met Gu Huaibi, and she called it ‘the moment of encountering the monster.’

 

Later on, Gu Huaibi dominated the entire Gu Group enterprise with ruthless methods, secretly injecting huge amounts of funds into a group’s crazy genetic modification research, attempting to subvert the entire human gene pool.

 

He was sentenced to death.

 

After her rebirth, Bianbian decided she would no longer stay far away from him due to fear. If she was truly the “noble daughter” in his life, then she hoped to change his fate and repay his kindness.

 

——

 

Nothing happened on the first night she spent at the Gu family mansion.

 

There were two rooms on the second floor; one was her room, and the other was Gu Huaibi’s room. There was also a maid named Aunt Zhou who took care of her daily life at home. Aunt Zhou didn’t live in the small western-style building, but in a separate building for the helpers.

 

To some extent, this few hundred-square meter small western-style building was inhabited by her and Gu Huaibi alone.

 

This was also one of the sixteen character words left by the master, which emphasized that childhood sweethearts accompanied each other day and night, never gave up, and lived a safe life.

 

That night, a big meal was served. The staff’s cooking skills were so exquisite that even ordinary chicken and duck meat could be transformed by their knives. She had never eaten such delicious and delicate dishes before, it was even better than the food in hotels.

 

The table was filled with food, but she ate it alone. The young master of the Gu family never appeared from beginning to end.

 

She didn’t want to waste food, so she ate until her stomach was bulging.

 

After dinner, she asked Aunt Zhou, “Is Brother Huaibi not at home?”

 

Aunt Zhou tidied up the dishes and kindly replied, “Young master is at home.”

 

“Isn’t he eating then?”

 

“He eats alone in his room.”

 

“Oh.”

 

Bianbian nodded. She felt that eating such a sumptuous meal alone was really a waste.

 

At night, she went to put her clothes into the closet, only to find that it was already filled with beautiful dresses; they were all her size.

 

Aunt Zhou said that Du Wanrou had prepared this for her, and she could wear it as she pleased.

 

She took out these beautiful dresses, put them in front of her and stood in front of the mirror with a surprised expression. She had never seen so many beautiful dresses before.

 

But after indulging, she still didn’t touch these clothes, not even removing the tags on them. She folded her clothes into the cabinet in the room.

 

Her dad said that people who were poor should have a strong sense of ambition and couldn’t casually take other people’s things. Besides, when he earned money, he usually sent her beautiful dresses.

 

Zheng Xiangrong kept most of them, but she wasn’t so poor that she was without food or clothing.

 

After finishing her homework, she laid on the soft bed, looking at the ceiling, unable to fall asleep.

 

She was curious about what Gu Huaibi looked like in his youth, which made people around him so afraid.

 

In her previous life, the man she remembered was clearly a graceful and beautiful young man—a virtuous young master. 

 

He wasn’t as ferocious and terrifying as people said; he had genetic mutations, was haunted by ghosts, and even turned into a beast. Rumors were really scary.

 

Just as she was lost in thought, she heard the sound of someone walking outside the door with heavy steps. This wasn’t the sound of a servant’s footsteps, because at this time, they should have returned to their rooms to rest.

 

So, did young Master Gu come out of his room?

 

Bianbian jumped up from the bed, tiptoed to the door, gently opened a crack in the door, and looked out.

 

Across from her room was young Master Gu’s room. The door was open, and footsteps came from downstairs. Suddenly, the sound of water splashing could be heard. He was getting water.

 

She was prepared to squat by the door and wait for the young man to come back so she’d catch a glimpse of his face.

 

A few minutes later, footsteps came from the hallway, heading upstairs!

 

Bianbian held her breath and stared intently at the corner of the stairs. It rain heavily outside the window, and the lightning roared.

 

From time to time, white light suddenly flashed, shining brightly in the dark room.

 

The first thing Bianbian saw was a black shadow. The shadow stopped at the corner, as if knowing she was peeking, but refused to take any further steps. Her heart was beating fast, and she gradually got scared.

 

Just as the next lightning bolt illuminated the entire hallway, a monster with brown hair all over its head suddenly appeared in front of her. Then the monster suddenly rushed towards the nearby door.

 

Bianbian screamed in fear and fell to the ground. Her three souls were scared away, leaving two and a half.

 

[TN: three souls—three immortal souls in Daoism, representing spirit and intellect]

 

The monster stood in front of her, looking down at her from above.

 

His dark and deep pupils were filled with indifference.

 

Upon hearing the screams, the nanny, Aunt Zhou, rushed over and turned on the lights in the room. She urgently shouted, “Young master, don’t scare Miss Bianbian!”

 

Gu Huaibi turned around and left the room, pulling off the beast head mask from his head and throwing it to the ground.

 

The beast head mask rolled twice and landed at Bianbian’s feet.

 

The handsome young man, as if he were a deity, turned around and glanced at her with contemptuous amusement in his eyes.

 

Bianbian was still in shock, covering her chest and leaning against the wall as she panted heavily.

 

He really scared her just now.

 

She crouched down and looked at the beast’s head, which was a terrifying prop that looked extremely real.

 

Of course, she knew it was deliberately made to be scary, but as she looked at it, she still felt scared and threw the beast’s head away.

 

Fortunately, she saw young Master Gu’s true face—not a terrifying monster with three heads and six arms.

 

The young man had clean and neat short hair, a transparent texture on his white skin, and a wild and unrestrained look in his eyes.

 

He looked really good.

 

——

 

The next morning, Bianbian had just woken up and finished washing up when she heard several servants discussing that early this morning, her aunt brought Zheng Xiangrong to the house and said that they had sent the wrong child and wanted to exchange it.

 

Bianbian guessed that from the unwilling expressions of her uncle and aunt, they really regretted it.

 

She strolled to the front hall garden, hiding behind a tree to peek.

 

Under the grape trellis in the garden, Du Wanrou sat on a red wood-carved flower chair, wearing a tight qipao, and drinking morning tea indifferently.

 

Today’s Mrs. Gu was no longer as gentle and affable as she was yesterday, with a palpable sense of arrogance in her look.

 

“Previously, in several discussions, it was said that my son’s destined helper was Bianbian; why are you now going back and forth?”

 

Yesterday, after visiting the Wangfu Garden, they stayed up all night. Zheng Xiangrong also cried all night in heartbreaking pain. She insisted on exchanging identities with Bianbian. Why could that rural girl go to the Gu family’s house to enjoy her life? She was unwilling!

 

“Indeed, we were wrong. We made a mistake. Bianbian is our relative who came from the countryside and temporarily resides in our home. The master’s reference to ‘noble daughter’ should naturally be our family’s Rongrong.”

 

Du Wanrou served as the chairman of the Gu Group, she had met countless types of people, and was accustomed to the ups and downs of life. Naturally, she knew the calculations in the hearts of this mother and daughter. They must have been blinded by the prosperity of the Wangfu garden.

 

She looked down upon them from the bottom of her heart, so her attitude became much more contemptuous.

 

“The ‘noble daughter’ means that our Xiao Bi’s life is in the hands of others, and that’s not to say who is more precious.”

 

“Yes, but since she needed to be living in the building facing north of the Gu family’s house since birth, my daughter and the second young master are more likely to be together.”

 

Du Wanrou’s narrow phoenix eyes gave Zheng Xiangrong a faint glance. Her appearance was far inferior to that of the delicate and pure Bianbian.

 

She had high cheekbones, thin lips, and a sly look in her eyes, but she wasn’t clever; she was more like a girl who loved to play tricks. 

 

Du Wanrou was reluctant to leave such a girl by Gu Huaibi’s side, but after pondering the woman’s words, she also felt that there was some truth.

 

It seemed that Du Wanrou was really moved. Bianbian was a bit anxious and frowned.

 

She wasn’t reluctant to leave the Gu family; she just didn’t want to return to the Zheng family.

 

The Zheng family treated her harshly, and if she went back, she would inevitably repeat the mistakes of the previous life.

 

Just then, a soft sigh came from behind.

 

Turning around, she saw Gu Huaibi.

 

Gu Huaibi, who was only thirteen this year, had already grown into a young man’s physique. He was 1.75 meters tall, and standing behind Bianbian, who was only 1.5 meters tall, he was like a big mountain!

 

His eyebrows and eyes were delicate and deep, and the soft sunlight shone on his face. His hazel-colored eyes were clear and translucent. His skin was even whiter than Bianbian’s, so his slightly thin, red lips seemed even redder.

 

Under the sunshine, he appeared to be shining brightly, as if coated with a layer of divine light.

 

She was stunned.

 

He held the beast mask and leaned against the locust tree beside him; his narrowed eyes appeared particularly profound.

 

He asked lightly, “Did I scare you last night?”

 

Bianbian quickly denied, “I wasn’t scared.”

 

It was just a fake beast head mask; how could it easily scare her?

 

Gu Huaibi coldly retorted, “That’s a lie.”

 

Staring at his clear and beautiful eyes, she felt her cheeks burning and she couldn’t say a word.

 

Her fair little hands twisted the corners of her clothes for a long time, and she cautiously asked him, “Gu Huaibi, can I stay?”

 

Gu Huaibi turned around and left with a cold expression: “You can’t.”

 

She quickly caught up and explained, “I will be very well behaved and listen to you. I won’t make you angry.”

 

Gu Huaibi glanced sideways at her.

 

The girl’s skin was transparent and fair, like a porcelain doll; with her eyes closed and a gentle expression, she wasn’t as sharp as the girl in the garden.

 

He said indifferently, “No one wants to stay by a monster’s side.”

 

“But you’re very good-looking and not scary at all; you’re not a monster.”

 

Gu Huaibi’s steps paused slightly, and his expression became sarcastic.

 

The girl had a sincere expression and didn’t seem to be hypocritical.

 

But if she had seen his crazy side, she probably wouldn’t want to stay by his side.

 

That look was ten million times more ferocious than the beasthead prop in his hand.

 

The girl stood pitifully on the grass, and Gu Huaibi took two steps before finally stopping.

 

He turned around and put the beast mask straight on Bianbian’s head, pushing the “little monster” in front of him and letting her go to the garden like this.

 

“Scare her away, then you can stay.”

 

Wearing a monster mask, she looked at him pitifully and shook her head.

 

She knew she couldn’t do it. The Gu family had rules, and if she behaved impolitely in front of others, she would definitely make Du Wanrou angry.

 

Gu Huaibi grabbed her collar and pulled her closer to him, then a wicked glint appeared in his eyes.

 

“If you want to stay by my side, you have to be obedient.”
