Flash Marriage: The Domineering Wife

Chapter 253 Gu Ren

~Flashback~

The woman's hair was disheveled. The expression in her eyes was blank compared to the smile she had on her face.

The woman was smiling. However, her smile bore no joy. It was fake--empty, devoid of any emotion like she was forcing herself to be happy herself.

She held two dolls. The male doll was on her left hand and a female doll on her right. The female toy specifically looked like her, and the male looked like a CEO of one company.

The dolls in her hands wore wedding clothes as the woman played with them as if she was a child playing Barbie dolls for the first time.

"Don't you love me, Wang Lu?"

The girl voiced out as if the female doll was talking. The woman then moved the male toy, her voice deep as she acted speaking like him.

"Yes, Gu Ren," the woman's voice was deep, "I love you. That's why I asked you to marry me."

The woman, Gu Ren, giggled as she continued playing alone as if she was a child. She put the dolls together and made smooching sounds, her brother watching her from afar.

He leaned on the doorframe, his arms crossing in front of his chest as his eyes reflected worry, seeing his sister Gu Ren acting this way.

Gu Zhi knew that his sister was smitten with Wang Lu.

He did not know that immense love towards someone could make someone insane. He thought that it only happened in books and movies.

Gu Zhi laughed about these concepts when he reads books or watches movies. But now that it happened to her sister, it made Gu Zhi's heart sink like it was Titanic sinking to the bottom of the ocean.

His eyes then showed a glint of malice. His gaze didn't leave his sister's back as he could not help but feel angry with how Wang Lu had affected his sister this much.

Gu Zhi loved his sister dearly. He was the most precious family member because Gu Ren saw him as her greatest brother in the world.

Gu Zhi always felt overprotective of her sister. Once he sensed that Gu Ren is in discomfort, he would always go to such lengths just for Gu Zhi to cheer her sister.

If he knew that Gu Ren was also in trouble, Gu Zhi would always be there to the rescue. He would not even care who the person he was dealing with when it comes to her sister. If the person dared hurt her, he would always do something about it.

"Wang Lu, do you want to live the rest of your life with me?" Gu Ren's voice sounded in the room, snapping Gu Zhi out of his thoughts.

Gu Zhi's eyebrows twitched, seeing his sister act this way. Every time she mentioned Wang Lu's name, being all lovey-dovey, his hatred towards him always grew.

"Of course, Gu Ren," her voice was low, "I would like to spend the rest of my life with you, and I would also like you to bear my children."

Gu Zhi could no longer help it. He stomped inside of the room, surprising Gu Ren as he got the dolls from her, breaking the Wang Lu doll in two pieces as he removed the torso and threw it at the side.

"You will not spend the rest of your day with him!"

"Gu Zhi!"

Gu Ren instantly stood up from the floor, giving a hard slap on Gu Zhi's cheek. His face went red, his body stiffening to have not expected Gu Ren to hit him out of anger.

She had never done this to him. Ever.

Tears started escaping from Gu Ren's eyes. Her voice was shaking as she bent down, getting the parts of the Wang Lu doll. She was desperate to connect the pieces, her hands trembling as well.

"Wang Lu... n-no, Wang Lu..."

Gu Ren cried uncontrollably like a child. Her head was shaking as she repeatedly connected them as if wanting them to come back in one piece like magic.

Seeing this, Wang Lu gritted his teeth, his eyebrows furrowing as his hands tightened into tight fists.

"Gu Ren. The Wang Lu doll is not him. You don't have to--"

"How could you say that it is not him!?"

Gu Ren interrupted him, standing up once more as she faced her older brother head-on, her hatred reflected in her eyes.

"Wang Lu, this is Wang Lu!" Gu Ren raised the doll, "And he asked me to marry him! He asked me to spend the rest of my days with him as his wife!"

Gu Zhi showed worry on his face. He could no longer help but cry for his little sister. He embraced Gu Ren, pulling her in his arms.

"Gu Ren, how many times must I tell you that this is not real?"

"No, no! How could you say that?!" Gu Ren wailed, both of her hands hitting her older brother's chest. "Wang Lu is mine, and he is mine forever!"

Gu Zhi knew that his sister needed help. He knew that he would have to let someone watch over her. Gu Zhi knew that he would have to be with Gu Ren to get checked to have all the help she needed.

However, deep down, Gu Zhi could not bring himself to believe that his sister had succumbed to insanity. He still felt that she was still sane despite the actions that she has been showing him.

"Gu Ren," Gu Zhi called out her name, sweetly as he could. "What do you want me to do, hmm? I want you to feel better. I don't want you to be this way."

With Gu Ren feeling her brother caressing her back and hair, she allowed herself to be vulnerable in his arms. She rubbed her face in his chest, not caring that she is making her brother's shirt wet.

"I want you to beat up those villains in my life. I want you to beat those people who are getting in the way of me being with Wang Lu."

Her muffled voice was still audible, making Gu Zhi understand each word that she said. He silenced as his lips turned into a tight line, continuing to listen to the woes of her sister.

"The villains of my love story... I want you to drive them away. Why should I be the only one suffering? Why does Feng Mei deserve him? Why can't I deserve him?"

Gu Zhi did not know what to say. His hold around his younger sister tightened, his eyes slowly showing hatred as he never saw his sister act this way.

"Gu Zhi, big brother... you're going to beat them up for me, won't you? You would do anything in your power to make your little sister Gu Ren happy, wouldn't you?"

Gu Zhi nodded in agreement as if he had no choice but to say yes so he could make his sister happy. With Gu Ren's words, he knew that she was getting insane by the second.

Her love for Wang Lu deepened right before his eyes even though Wang Lu was not around.

How can the human mind and the human heart be capable of such a thing? Is there any way to stop this? Is there any way to make her sister go back to normal? historical

However, even with these thoughts in mind, he would go to such lengths--no matter what it takes, just for him to satisfy his little sister.

"What do you want me to do, specifically?" Gu Zhi asked as Gu Ren raised her head to look at him.

Gu Zhi's eyes widened to have seen another expression on Gu Ren's face. It was an expression that he had never seen before on her gentle, beautiful face.

It was a sinister look. Gu Ren's eyes were devoid of emotion--her smile, blank and fake as ever even though her lips were curling up.

She then raised her hand, touching her big brother's cheek she slapped minutes ago.

She rubbed his cheek with her thumb, soothing the pain that Gu Zhi felt as she spoke, her words sending chills down her brother's spine.

"Promise me that no matter what, Feng Mei won't escape your grasp. Promise me that no matter what, Feng Mei and Wang Lu would have to separate. If you have managed to do that, brother, then I will surely be happy."

Gu Zhi slowly nodded. It was then that he realized that her sister was no longer in the right mind and that she was slowly becoming into a person that was not her in the beginning.

Her sweet and demure personality quickly faded away, all because of the insanity she felt while she loved Gu Zhi.

Gu Zhi knew that his sister was long gone. However, it did not waver his decisions.

He promised right here and then that he would do everything in his power, even though it is wrong, so he could make his sister happy.
