Gu Yuexi’s appearance was suave and he looked elegant like a wealthy noble. In actual fact, his true character was sinister and gloomy, just like a problem youth. No, a teenager. Whoever saw Gu Yuexi would forget his actual age.
After interacting with him, Wen Xinya came to admire him. Gu Yuexi was smart and witty. He was a highly intelligent talent who kept his thoughts secret.
No wonder So Yiyan regarded him so highly.
“Gu Yuexi is too dangerous and intimidating. You think so highly of him, but aren’t you afraid you can’t control him?” Wen Xinya did not have a prejudice against Gu Yuexi. However, his character was too dark and cold, which was very worrying. Si Yiyan had placed great trust in him and even formed a friendship with him. She was concerned for Si Yiyan.
“Although Gu Yuexi’s personality is rather twisted, he is very capable. His greatest strength is that he is very intelligent, smart enough to understand what will benefit him. He knew how to gain my trust and respect. I had never thought of reigning over him, so I don’t really care about the process.”
A person like Gu Yuexi did not need someone to lead him. He chose whoever he wanted to serve willingly and offered his loyalty.
Just nice, he was also the only one who could keep him under control, which was good enough.
“Should I praise you for having everything under control?” Wen Xinya said as she looked at Si Yiyan. His expression was calm, and such confidence displayed his charm. Gu Yuexi was sinister and threatening, yet he trusted him just because he thought highly of him.
Si Yiyan did not doubt his underlings while he rejected people he could not trust. It was no wonder a menacing big boss like Gu Yuexi would choose to serve him.
Si Yiyan watched as her eyes gleamed with happiness. It was a beautiful sight which he could not turn away from.
“Actually, Gu Yuexi’s personality was a result of his childhood environment. He had a violent father who abused his mother to death. Later on, in order to protect Gu Yuehan, he killed his father with his own hands. Ever since then, he took care of his brother and led a life of hiding and running. At that time, Gu Yuexi was 6 years old and Gu Yuehan 4 years old. They went through life’s harsh tests at such a young age. The reality of life for them was tough. Because of this, darkness grew in his heart.”
He saved Gu Yuexi when he was 9 years old. At that time, Gu Yuehan and he were caught by a perverted man who was a pedophile.
It was only out of a one-off kindness that he saved them. Who knew they ended up forging a relationship and the two brothers stayed by his side throughout the time in England.
“I see, Gu Yuexi actually had such a past. No wonder he turned out this way.” She knew better than anyone how dark it felt to lead a wandering life since young. Gu Yuexi grew up in an abusive family and watched his mother die before him. It could be said that his whole life was filled with darkness and he never felt any hope.
The people around Si Yiyan all had their past. These obstacles did not extinguish their wills. Instead, they became more resilient.
Si Yiyan did not make a comment.
Only through overcoming obstacles can a man grow.
Their principles, morals and responsibilities are only attained through these sufferings.
Wen Xinya could not help but diss. “Can’t there be a single normal person around you?”
Jokester, trash, devil and paralyzed face… With the addition of Si Yiyan this big black wolf, Wen Xinya did not have the energy left to criticize them. Si Yiyan’s side was a camp for all the weird people to gather. They were all so strange that Xinya was utterly speechless.
“I have you.” Si Yiyan smiled. Seeing her scrunched up little face, he could tell how much she must be dissing them in her mind.
Wen Xinya said with a straight face, “I’m very honored to be categorized as a normal person by you!”
Compared to the jokester Xu Xianghu, trashy Yueze, devil Gu Yuexi, and paralyzed face Gu Yuehan, she was truly the only normal human.
“Haha…” Si Yiyan laughed gently. Her poker face contradicted her words no matter how you saw it. “Don’t just look at the weird sides that they keep hidden from people. They are more prideful than anyone. It’s only because they acknowledged you that they could reveal their true personalities in front of you without hesitation.”
Although Xu Xianghu was like a clown, he was an expert killer. His hands were drenched in fresh blood countless of times and had the nickname “Tiger”. People would tremble in fear at the mention of his name.
Although Yueze looked like trash, he was more calculative and sharp than anybody else. He had the authority over Lucifer’s assets and controlled nearly one-fourth of England’s economy. He was skilled in getting rid of enemies without spilling a drop of blood and was not someone to be messed with.
While Gu Yuehan may have a stiff face, he valued relationships more than anyone else. The moment you received his acknowledgment, nothing could destroy his loyalty towards you.
Gu Yuexi might put on a front as a gentleman with his innocent smile, but he was completely evil, cruel, cold-blooded, cunning and vicious.
After living their lives surrounded by power strifes, they all became closed-off and solitary. Those acknowledged by them were one in a million.
“If that’s the case, I’ll be nicer to them the next time they come over.” Wen Xinya smiled shyly and slyly like a young girl.
She was not stupid. Everything that Si Yiyan had said, how could she not have known? It was because she felt their sincerity that she would brazenly tease Xu Xianghu and joke around with them.
“Don’t treat them too well, they’ll start to be greedy.” Si Yiyan looked at this little girl who was smiling like a devil, he knew that she must be coming up with ways to bully and tease them.
He lit a few candles for them secretly in his heart.
This little rascal must have actually turned evil!
She can’t be considered as normal!
Unfortunately, one was marked by the company one kept. Wen Xinya was unaware that after spending time with Si Yiyan, she had started to turn dark. Her devilish side was slowly coming to light.
