On the wedding day, my wife was abnormal

Lin Zhen was so frightened by Shangguan Wan'er's "face" that his scalp went numb and his soul was scared out of his wits.

That face that should have been stunningly beautiful was actually blank!

Without eyes, nose or mouth, it looked like a beautiful work of art that was carefully carved but the face was forgotten. In this room full of dazzling lights, it looked so creepy and weird.

Lin Zhen's breathing became rapid, his chest heaving violently, and his hands unconsciously gripped the windowsill tightly behind his back, his knuckles turning white from the force.

"What's going on?" Lin Zhen's throat was extremely dry, and he swallowed hard several times before squeezing these words out from between his teeth. His voice trembled like a leaf in the wind, floating and echoing in the silent room.

The wives and concubines seemed unaware of Shangguan Wan'er's abnormal behavior. They still walked towards Lin Zhen hand in hand, smiling and talking.

Huanbi, who was walking in front, was holding an exquisite tray in her hand with a cup of steaming hot coffee on it, and the lingering aroma was wafting in the air.

"Sister Wan'er, have a cup of coffee~" Huanbi smiled like a flower, her eyes clear and innocent.

Shangguan Wan'er had no mouth, so she couldn't speak. She just nodded, took it, and then walked towards Lin Zhen.

Lin Zhen widened his eyes, staring at Huanbi, then looked at Shangguan Wan'er behind her. He subconsciously moved his feet back, but his back was pressed against the floor-to-ceiling window and he had no way to retreat.

His lips trembled, and he wanted to open his mouth to warn everyone, but he found that his voice seemed to have been taken away, and he could only make a few dry "gurgles" in his throat.

Shangguan Wan'er approached step by step like a ghost, and every step seemed to step on Lin Zhen's heart, which made his heart beat even more crazily.

Her long hair swayed gently with her steps, and occasionally a few strands brushed across her blank face, making her look even more eerie.

When she finally stood in front of Lin Zhen, she was so close that Lin Zhen could feel the chill emanating from her, as if the yin energy from the underworld was corroding his skin.

Lin Zhen mustered up his courage, stood there and looked into her eyes.

I thought the other party would take the initiative to attack, and Lin Zhen was even prepared to throw coffee on her face.

Unexpectedly, Shangguan Wan'er stretched out her hands, hugged her waist, and slowly moved her face closer.

Judging from the posture, he is actually going to kiss me!

How the hell can I even eat this?

Huanbi covered her eyes and started to make trouble: "Oh my, oh my, this is too shameful!"

Lin Zhen wanted to push her away, but Shangguan Wan'er's body was like a huge rock weighing several tons and could not be moved at all.

In a hurry, Lin Zhen looked at Chu Xiling, who had a strange sneer on her face, and shouted sharply: "Is it you who did this?"

Chu Xiling snapped her fingers, and her white clothes instantly turned into a bright red long skirt, like a burning sunset, which was particularly eye-catching in the dim night.

Her black hair was tied up high, with a few strands falling on her cheeks, adding to her charming yet somewhat evil face.

There was a hint of a smile on the corner of her mouth, and she looked at Lin Zhen with a playful look, as if she was enjoying a wonderful show.

"Hahaha, I didn't expect you had never met Shangguan Wan'er. That was my mistake."

"What on earth are you trying to do? It's not enough to torture me with a curse, you're even implanting dreams in me? Are you a human or a ghost?"

Chu Xiling waved her hand in the air and unexpectedly produced a cup of coffee. She drank it happily and sat on the sofa.

"Lin Zhen, there are times when you feel helpless too."

"Nonsense, this is a dream you created. Of course I can't resist. If you dare, let's wake up and compete."

"Wake up? Oh, do you think you can still wake up?"

"What do you mean?" Looking at Chu Xiling's sneer, Lin Zhen felt more and more terrified in his heart.

Could it be that I can't wake up?

There is no such truth.

Chu Xiling pointed at Shangguan Wan'er who was standing in front of Lin Zhen.

When Lin Zhen saw it, his hair stood on end.

Shangguan Wan'er, who was about to kiss him, suddenly stood still.

Not only her, but the whole world seemed to be paused in an instant.

The hustle and bustle of traffic outside the window froze, the neon lights stopped flashing, and the movements of the wives and concubines in the house also stopped. Only Lin Zhen himself and Chu Xiling could still move.

Lin Zhen gasped for breath, his chest heaving violently. He stared at Chu Xiling intently and said through gritted teeth, "Chu Xiling, what on earth are you going to do?"

"Nothing, I just want to be with you forever."

"Bullshit, why don't you stay together in the real world? Why do you have to stay in this damn place?"

"Because the real world doesn't belong to us." Chu Xiling stood up, holding her coffee, pointing her pinky finger out the French window, and raised her chin. "Look. How beautiful it is here. I never imagined that your former world was so magical and prosperous. This battle, our Chu State lost well."

Chu Xiling seemed to be lost in her own world, muttering, "I like it here. I like the feeling of being a god. Lin Zhen, don't you like it?"

"No matter how much I like you, it's fake!"

"No! As long as you believe it, it's true! We can stay here for ten years, a hundred years, a thousand years! As long as you want, we will never grow old and will never die."

Lin Zhen looked at Chu Xiling's ferocious expression and asked a question that surprised even himself: "How long have you been here?"

Chu Xiling revealed a beautiful smile: "Twelve years."

"What? You're already here... Impossible, I just woke up the day before!"

"It was me who woke you up. I've seen all the scenery in this world, including the technology, history, and everything here. I know it all by heart. However, I don't like the people here. You are the only one who can enter my heart. Lin Zhen, live with me, don't go back."

"No, that's impossible. Tell me which level of dream this is."

"You're not talking about Inception, are you? I've seen that movie, and honestly, it's pretty good. However, this world isn't entirely a dream, so the flow of time isn't calculated the same way as in Inception."

"Since you know "Inception", what will happen if I jump down from here?" Lin Zhen looked at the floor-to-ceiling window and then at the large window above.

Chu Xiling showed that weird and creepy smile again: "Why don't you try it? Alas, what a pity, I wanted to play in your world for a few more days." Chu Xiling opened her red lips slightly, and her laughter was crisp, but it made Lin Zhen feel like he fell into an ice cellar.

"Just give it a try! Do you think I'm afraid of you? Even if I fall into the Lost Realm, it's better than being toyed with by you!"

As he said that, Lin Zhen jumped up and stepped on Shangguan Wan'er's head to open the window.

call--

A strong wind blew.

Outside the floor-to-ceiling windows, there was bottomless darkness under the tall buildings, like a huge mouth ready to devour anyone.

Lin Zhen took a deep breath, his eyes filled with determination, and jumped without hesitation.

The wind was whistling in his ears and his body was falling rapidly. The feeling of weightlessness made his stomach churn, but he closed his eyes tightly and had only one thought in his mind: I must go back!
