Born to Be Rebellious [Quick Transmigration]

“Still pretending?”

Ge Xiu stared at the other party, the curve of his lips gradually widened and his smile was as sweet as honey, but somehow it made people feel a chill down their back:

“Do you really want me to list all the evidence one by one?”

After entering this virtual world, he had gone through three instances in total.

In the first dungeon, the other party didn’t show up from the beginning to the end. The only time he showed up was deep in the dark night. Even the delivery of key props was done with the help of another instance’s boss.

In the second instance, if Ge Xiu hadn’t provoked the other with his words, he seemed to want to follow Ge Xiu in an invisible way, even after appearing, during most of the time, the other still maintained the hidden state — even when there were no other players around.

But in the third instance, the other was acting very unusually.

Not only did he reveal his real body at the beginning, he even directly mixed in with the players and even installed an identity for himself—

moreover it was an identity recognized by the instance.

More importantly, in the second instance, Ge Xiu noticed that the elderly woman mention something: “As long as I’m here, he can’t get in.”

In the key building of the instance, his authority was lower than the boss of the instance, no matter how powerful, he couldn’t break through the thin and tattered door.

But in this instance, it wasn’t anyhow similar.

And earlier, in the living room, the hostess’ look at the sight of the man further verified Ge Xiu’s guess.

Ge Xiu was extremely sensitive to changes in people’s emotions, not to mention that the other person’s expression was so horrified that he knew what it meant without even thinking about it. The fear and panic in her eyes had long penetrated to the bone marrow, shivering and covering, only wishing to escape.

Even the boss who lost the ability to resist in the previous instance had never shown such a cowardly and terrified expression— the elderly woman’s eyes were full of hatred from the beginning to the end, like a scorpion with broken tail and snake with removed teeth, although there was no possibility of turning over, but it still wants to seize the opportunity to stab you again.

At that moment, all the previous details connected into an answer.

Including the gloomy and violent expression on the other’s face when he saw the photo hidden in the pocket watch, and the seemingly affectionate, half-false half-true words: —

“My fiancée, I don’t know if I still have a chance?”

— “Then I will kill your lover, hide you in my attic, so that no one can see you except me.”

It was said in a seemingly joking tone, but in the man’s downcast black eyes, the expression was extraordinarily dark and serious, as if he could personally implement every word he’d said to its utmost.

Ge Xiu looked into the other’s calm eyes.

The man leaned against the wall relaxedly, his demeanour and body language were relaxed and natural, as if the person who was cornered was not himself.

He smiled softly: “No need.”

Ge Xiu raised his eyebrows:

“Stopped pretending?”

“Not pretending anymore.”

The man smiled and leaned closer, as if completely abandoning his disguise, his dark deep eyes flashed with desire, madness and paranoia:

“I’m very happy.”

Ge Xiu narrowed his eyes and suddenly had an ominous premonition:

“…what are you happy about?”

The man’s facial expression seemed a bit unfathomable under the changing light and shadow, as he sighed softly:

“You finally remembered.”

The next second, Ge Xiu suddenly felt as if his body was imprisoned by some powerful force, not even his fingertips could move freely.

He could only watch helplessly as the other party leaned down and to hold his hand hanging by the side and spoke.

The cold lips pressed onto the back of the young man’s pale smooth hands.

The man with a ghostly pale face raised up his eyes slowly and said with a smile:

“…my bride.”

…

The ominous premonition had been fulfilled.

Ge Xiu suddenly realized his negligence.

He had to admit that as world after world passed, his vigilance towards this man gradually decreased.

Before this world began, the spiritual connection and virtual world invitation were both initiated by Pandora, moreover after entering this world, the other party claimed that he had no memory, not even knowing his own name.

This made Ge Xiu subconsciously equate the identity of the other party with himself.

Such as, the real existence beyond this virtual world.

He overlooked in the final analysis that this was another virtual world, which was created by the research institute, the other party in this world had the same set identity and framework as in the previous worlds—even if it was hidden under the skin of this character was the soul he was familiar with, but as long as he was in this virtual world, all his actions would not exceed his personality settings.

While being the person Ge Xiu knew well, he was also an obsessive instance boss.

And judging from the current situation, the opponent’s setting this time was very likely to be the most dangerous one he had encountered so far.

Was careless this time.

Ge Xiu thought calmly.

At this moment, butler in black suit quietly stepped out from the shadow of the corridor.

He bowed to the man with perfect etiquette and a respectful voice:

“Sir, dinner is ready.”

The man nodded casually at him: “Let the guests take their seats first, we’ll be right there.”

The butler bowed again, and as quietly as when he came, disappeared into the depths of the dark corridor.

The man walked towards Ge Xiu, with a gentle and charming smile on his lips, his dark eyes affectionate and doting, as he stretched out his hand to Ge Xiu:

“Let’s go, everyone is waiting for us.”

Ge Xiu saw his hand move slightly, raising to touch the cold and slender palm of the other party.

His legs also automatically moved forward, following the other down the corridor.

In the deep corridor, the light and shadow changed, the clock hanging on the wall was making ticking sounds, and the wallpaper showed a dark red and viscous color under the dim light, as if slowly dripping blood.

Not far away came the bright lights from the dining room, dispelling some of the darkness in front of him.

Ge Xiu was led into the light by the man in front of him.

The dining room was brightly lit.

It was decorated with European-style bust sculptures extending from the wall with different postures. Their pale marble skin reflects a cold luster. A long table is placed in the center of the dining room, exquisite cups and oriental-style snow-white porcelain were neatly placed on it, candle flames flickered on the silver candlesticks. Everything showed signs of great luxury.

The guests sat at a long table, with the hostess and one of the players taking the lead.

The players who were servants were serving at the side, some were holding silver trays, some were holding towels, all standing in their own positions tremblingly.

All pairs of eyes were cast on the two of them.

Except for one.

At the end of the long table, sat a strange-looking man. His body was extremely massive, almost as wide as three or four people. He sat on a chair that was obviously tailored for him, his two fat and short legs couldn’t even touch the ground, his face was heaving red, with a pair of eyes that were so small that they could hardly be seen among the hanging flesh of his face. Under an equally small disproportionate nose was a huge mouth, when it open, everyone could see rows upon rows of shark-like sharp teeth, it was obvious that if touched, a layer of flesh would be scraped off.

He sat there, panting heavily.

——This should be the person who rang the doorbell before Gexiu left the hall.

Lord Puskas.

Because of his existence, except for the NPCs in the room, all the players looked as if sitting on pins and needles, wishing that the banquet would end as fast as possible.

The man was calm.

He led Ge Xiu to the main seat.

The hostess flinched visibly, stood up quickly from her seat and then quickly backed away.

The other players who were paying attention here suddenly took a breath.

This… what’s going on here?

Although the player sitting next to her didn’t know what was going on, as an experienced player who had survived several instances, he instinctively sensed the danger, jumped up from his seat like the hostess and retreated several feet away quickly.

The man bent down, pulled out one of the chairs in a gentlemanly manner and led Ge Xiu to sit down.

And then he pulled out another chair and sat down by himself.

The NPC maids and male servants on the side stepped forward in a well-trained manner, and led the two to sit down in their own seats. The whole process was swift and silent, as short as the blink of an eye, replacing the main seat’s owner had been completed smoothly.

The players exchanged a panicked look.

None of them could have imagined the current direction— all of this seemed to be beyond their control, as if they just looked away for a short time and everything began to fall apart irretrievably.

The man raised his hand and gestured to the butler.

The butler immediately understood and walked forward, holding the red wine bottle wrapped in a white towel in his white gloved hands. The mouth of the bottle tilted and the red wine, resembling scarlet blood, poured down immediately filling the crystal clear glass. It made a beautiful arc and then swirled gracefully in the crystal glass, until it reached an invisible line, then the mouth of the bottle turned slightly and went up.

The butler stepped aside with the bottle in his hand and waved to the waiter who was waiting at the side.

The next second, another door of the dining room opened and servants came in with huge silver plates. The first servant put the plate in front of the huge baron and lifted the top cover, presenting the delicacies hidden below.

The outer skin was roasted, crispy and fragrant and the light gravy flows slowly down the burned and cracked skin, dripping on the roasted potatoes and carrots and other side dishes around, a tempting fragrance pervaded everywhere.

But every player had a green face.

——The barbecue clearly showed the shape of human legs, thighs, calves, ankles, feet and even toes, all fully discernable.

The man raised the wine glass in front of him, and the blood-red wine swayed in the glass.

He smiled and said:

“bon appétit.”
