AMRWFA -Chapter 378 The Monster — Lin Yucheng

She didn’t say it out loud, but Ruan Yaoyao had already learned everything from the “detail page” above her head.

When it came to Gui Xiyu, Lin Yucheng was nothing like Wenren Hanmo. If Gui Xiyu dared to reject him, he would simply take her by force.

The first time she refused, Lin Yucheng assumed it was just human “reserve.”

But when he realized she was genuinely rejecting him, he grew angry. He began to plan everything—approaching her as a friend to lower her guard, inviting her to celebrate his birthday… when in fact, he was preparing to confess again.

If she agreed, all would be well.
If she refused, he would force himself on her.

Report him to the police?

No problem. He had already taken photos of her. If she didn’t want her relatives and friends to find out, she’d better keep quiet.

All of it under the banner of “love.” He claimed he acted this way because he loved her too much—if she had just agreed to be with him, none of this would have happened.

Gui Xiyu didn’t dare take the risk.

She hesitated, and so she suffered.

Of course, at that moment she was only wavering, too afraid to report him. But after a few days, she hardened her resolve and decided to go to the police.

Unfortunately, before she could act, Lin Yucheng found out. He directly threatened her family’s safety. To gain her trust, he even revealed his true form—a monster resembling an octopus with many tentacles.

Gui Xiyu’s eyes widened in terror. She muttered “demon” before rolling her eyes back and fainting.

When she woke up again, she was already lying on his bed.

Turning her head, she saw him—human head, octopus body—and nearly fainted again.

The only reason she didn’t was because Lin Yucheng was taking advantage of her.

Ruan Yaoyao: “……”

【Is this guy completely driven by lust? At a time like this, all he knows is to take advantage of her—can’t he at least calm her down first?!】

【Comfort? What comfort? No one had taught Lin Yucheng how to handle things properly. His methods were simple and crude—either threats, or the idea of “a couple fights in bed and reconciles in bed.”】

【Ahhh… who taught him this?!】

【Of course, no one had. He was simply following his beastly instincts, piecing together fragmented ideas from human society and forming his own conclusions.】

【Otherwise, just look at Wenren Hanmo—both monsters, yet the difference was enormous.】

【If the detail page hadn’t clearly described his feelings for Gui Xiyu, Ruan Yaoyao might have thought he was fake—someone who only wanted to torment her.】

【In truth, Lin Yucheng really had fallen in love with Gui Xiyu. He just didn’t know how to love someone properly.】

【Like in clichéd web novels, because he didn’t know how to love, he would later suffer a “crematorium chasing wife” arc.】

Ruan Yaoyao wanted to curse. If this were just fiction, fine—but this was happening to a real person. For Gui Xiyu, how terrifying must this be?

In reality, even being followed secretly is enough to make girls scream in fear. But Lin Yucheng didn’t just stalk—he added violence, coercion, threats, intimidation… it was like stacking bugs upon bugs.

The fact that Gui Xiyu hadn’t mentally collapsed or committed suicide already showed her strength.

As for the “detail page” forcing a dramatic twist into a happy ending, Ruan Yaoyao could only say: plot control is plot control. In the real world, something like that would be impossible.

What Ruan Yaoyao didn’t notice was that Gui Xiyu had gone completely rigid, unmoving for a long time.

—What did you just say?!
—Lin Yucheng isn’t human?!
—Am I going to end up that miserable?!
—Oh my god!

Gui Xiyu rolled her eyes back and fainted again.

Ruan Yaoyao was startled and quickly caught her, telling Ruan Zhihe to call emergency services.

Could it be a physical issue?

Why did she suddenly faint while we were talking?

Naturally, Ruan Zhihe wouldn’t let just any doctor come. Even though they called emergency services, the ones who arrived were internal personnel.

Gui Xiyu was taken to the hospital for an urgent examination.

“How is she? There’s nothing wrong with her body, right?” Ruan Yaoyao asked anxiously as soon as the doctor came out.

The doctor replied, “She’s fine. Just slightly sub-healthy… and this fainting was likely caused by excessive shock.”

【Ah… so she was frightened by Lin Yucheng!
Is her mental resilience really that weak?
The detail page didn’t mention this—wasn’t her first fainting due to seeing his true form?】

Ruan Zhihe’s heart skipped a beat. She suspected that Gui Xiyu might have heard Aunt Xu’s inner thoughts—otherwise, why would she faint ahead of time?

Sure enough, after sending Ruan Yaoyao away, her teammates confirmed from the awakened Gui Xiyu that she really could “hear” Ruan Yaoyao’s thoughts.

Gui Xiyu was then made to sign a confidentiality agreement.

Gui Xiyu: “……”

So I can hear other people’s thoughts?!

Even the national team got involved—this must be real.

Wait… what do you mean? These thoughts are my “future”?!

Then that means… Lin Yucheng really isn’t human?!

Gui Xiyu panicked. If he wasn’t human, wouldn’t the authorities step in to “handle” him? She didn’t want to end up as miserable as in that “future.”

“Waaah… big sister, save me!” When she saw Ruan Yaoyao again, she grabbed her sleeve and begged for help.

The national team had told her that others had experienced similar situations—including Ruan Yaoyao’s daughter—so asking Ruan Yaoyao for help was the safest and most effective option.

Crying pitifully, she hid the fact that she could hear thoughts and instead said she wanted to find a reliable metaphysics master.

“I think I’ve encountered a peach blossom calamity. Master, I want to change my fate!”

Isn’t that exactly what it is? He’s not even human—what else could it be but a peach blossom calamity?

Gui Xiyu nodded tearfully: Yes, yes—big sister, save me!

Ruan Yaoyao took out a tissue and gently wiped her tears. “Don’t be afraid. Big sister will help you.”

“Waaah… big sister…” Gui Xiyu’s tears fell like broken pearls.

But this time, they weren’t from fear—they were from relief and warmth.

She felt a little guilty inside. She knew she shouldn’t deceive her, but she had signed a confidentiality agreement—she didn’t dare go against the state.

But don’t worry, big sister. I’ll repay you in the future!

Seeing the gratitude in her eyes, Ruan Yaoyao sighed inwardly.

【Such a good girl… how did she end up in something like this?】

【Looks like I’ll have to meet that monster.】

Instead of rushing in recklessly, Ruan Yaoyao gave Gui Xiyu ten protective talismans.

“Wear these for now. I’ll make you a protective bracelet when I get back. With it, he won’t be able to get close to you. If he causes trouble, let him come to me.”

She then gave her contact information and address.

Gui Xiyu hesitated. “Big sister, if he comes after you… will you be okay?”

Ruan Yaoyao remained calm. “It’s fine. I have ways to deal with him.”

【He’s just a monster.
If I can’t handle him, can’t I handle my future son-in-law?
As long as Wenren Hanmo still wants to be my son-in-law, he’ll have to suppress Lin Yucheng for me.】

Ruan Zhihe’s pupils shrank.

Wait—Aunt Xu, you’re not planning to save your own daughter?!

Xu Nannan is sacrificing so much—does she even know?

She felt uneasy. If Xu Nannan found out, she’d probably be furious.

So what if Wenren Hanmo is love-struck? He’s still not human—there’s no way Xu Nannan would accept that.

If she could accept it, she wouldn’t be complaining in the group chat, asking everyone for ideas to get Ruan Yaoyao to cut off this “peach blossom.”

She’d rather stay single forever.

Ruan Zhihe glanced at her phone, unsure whether she should report this.

Sigh… forget it. This is between mother and daughter—they should resolve it themselves.
