Chapter 95 - Breakdown (1/2)
”Huang Yu?”
Gu Yue's voice was soft, yet a little hoarse.
”You…”
Huang Yu paused, furrowing his brows slightly.
His eyes told him that this person in front of him was definitely Yun Ming's disciple…
Yet, every instinct in his body told him that this was something he knew…
Someone he loved…
”Gu Yue…”
Huang Yu whispered softly causing her to stiffen up.
A self-deprecating smile appeared on her face. She took a deep breath to steady herself before she spoke.
”You're the King?”
Her voice cracked near the end of her words.
Huang Yu opened his mouth to answer, but he was cut off as Gu Yue's voice turned more hysteric.
”No, it can't be right? This is all just a bad dream isn't it?”
”Yeah, I'm just having a nightmare right now. I'm still in my room right?”
”Please… I just want to wake up now.”
Hearing this, pain entered Huang Yu's eyes. He let out a deep sigh before he uttered in a low voice.
”Gu Yue, this is all real.”
”I am the King of Nox.”
At those words, Gu Yue paused.
Her breathing turned more and more heavy as she clenched her fists tightly. Her teeth were gnashed as her eyes began turning red.
The surroundings began distorting as elements began to go wild, not that different from Gu Yue's current state of mind.
Huang Yu noticed this as concern appeared on his face.
He tried to approach her, but her next words caused him to freeze.
”Did you know who I was all along?”
The brief silence that came after was all that Gu Yue needed to have her question answered.
A bitter laugh suddenly emerged from her throat.
It started softly, but it slowly became more and more hysterical.
Soon, it devolved into the laughters of a madwoman whilst sobs were mixed in between.
”Gu Yue! Listen to me!”
Huang Yu's voice was loud and forceful, causing Gu Yue to pause.
Her eyes turned dull as she heard the way he spoke to her, a myriad of strange thoughts popping up in her mind.
The Huang Yu that she had in her heart had never spoken to her in a voice like this before.
He was always gentle and kind to her. The most that he had gone to when she had done something stupid was just a tone of disappointment.
Did that mean that…
Not knowing Gu Yue's thoughts at the moment, Huang Yu winced slightly as he saw the look on her face.
Although he had his schemes, at heart, he was an emotional person.
He would usually never take a tone like this with her.
However, this time was an exception.
Gu Yue was definitely misunderstanding something here. Before it went too far, he had to resolve it.
If Gu Yue were in a stable state of mind, maybe she would have noticed this.
Unfortunately, with the way she was at this moment, there was absolutely no way that she would.
In a few steps, Huang Yu was already in front of Gu Yue.
He extended his hand, taking hold of Gu Yue's arm.
However, to his surprise, that seemed to snap her out of her stupor as she broke free from his grip with a snarl.
”This is just your way of settling your vendetta with me isn't it?”
Gu Yue's voice was cold as ice. There was a sneer on her face as she looked directly into his eyes.
A look of confusion appeared on Huang Yu's face
”What do you—”
”Since you know who I am, then you definitely know why I approached you in the first place.”
Huang Yu was stunned speechless for the first time.
He was incapable of saying anything as he just stood there like a statue.
”I'll even take another guess. It was probably that bitch Na'er that told you…”
”So to get even with me, you played me like a fiddle didn't you…”
”You made me think that we were in love, but you were probably just laughing at me from behind this entire time…”
Huang Yu managed to recover at this time.
He opened his mouth to try to get some words off but Gu Yue didn't even give him the slightest chance to explain himself.
”You got both of your Bishops to block me while you got the Dragon God's Core didn't you?”
”And now you have it, you're just rubbing it in my face!”
”Gu Yue, calm down. You're over—”
Huang Yu was cut off as he found a fist buried in his gut.
”Don't tell me what to do!!”
”It's already reached this stage, so why do you keep on lying? Do you find it fun to see me like this”
