Instantly.
Fang Xiu felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave!
"You can see me!?"
What on earth did that mean!?
His mind was in utter chaos. He tried to clear his thoughts, but his wife didn't give him a chance.
Crack.
The sound of porcelain shattering echoed continuously.
His wife's delicate, cold-white skin began to crack all over. In the blink of an eye, countless dense black fissures covered her entire body, making her look like a shattered porcelain doll.
From within the black cracks, the sound of flowing water could be heard, and crimson blood, like wriggling worms, seeped out of the gaps.
His wife's smooth, long hair began to move, writhing in the air like a tangle of black snakes.
"You can see me!!" A non-human roar erupted from his wife's mouth.
Her cherry-red lips had now stretched all the way to her ears, her once smooth teeth were now jagged, and inside her mouth, another mouth was embedded, as if she had a mouth growing in her throat.
Fear surged like a tidal wave, instantly engulfing Fang Xiu's entire body.
His body stiffened uncontrollably, his brain crashed, leaving him with a blank mind.
The next moment, the shadow of death arrived as expected.
A gaping, bloody maw descended upon Fang Xiu's head.
Darkness fell before Fang Xiu's eyes. A cold, slimy, suffocating sensation overwhelmed him as his head was devoured by his wife.
Immediately following was an unimaginable, searing pain that spread throughout his entire body...
Fang Xiu was dead!
The scene was utterly terrifying.
A being that appeared to be non-human had bitten off Fang Xiu's head in one go.
The headless corpse didn't fall immediately. A large amount of blood spurted from the neck, like a fountain, soaking the bedsheets.
However, in the next second, the surrounding space-time began to shatter like glass, and everything returned to nothingness.
...
Never let them know you can see!
Never let them know you can see!!!
On the pure white ceiling, densely packed blood-red characters appeared as if someone had bitten their finger and written them.
Fang Xiu, who had been asleep, suddenly woke up with a jolt, sitting up abruptly in bed.
Cold sweat covered his forehead. He gasped for breath, his eyes filled with fear.
"What's going on! I died, didn't I? Was it all a dream just now!?"
This was the first thought that appeared in Fang Xiu's mind. However, when he saw the blood-red writing on the ceiling, his body instantly stiffened.
"Never let them know you can see!?"
"Damn it! So it wasn't a dream!?"
Fang Xiu stared fixedly at the writing on the ceiling. Under his gaze, the blood-red characters suddenly disappeared, as if they had been wiped away by something.
"It disappeared again!"
"What on earth is going on?"
Before Fang Xiu could think about it in detail, a gentle, watery voice came from outside the bedroom.
"Husband, breakfast is ready."
The voice was so gentle, with a hint of affection, sparking endless imagination.
However, all it brought Fang Xiu was fear, endless fear.
The terror of having his head bitten off by a bloody maw instantly resurfaced in his mind.
He instinctively wanted to escape, but he couldn't.
Because his wife had already entered the bedroom.
She was still wearing a white camisole nightgown, her skin was cold and white, and her smile was enough to soften the passage of time.
"Husband, you're awake. Breakfast is ready," his wife said with a gentle smile.
Fang Xiu was extremely terrified. He was just an ordinary person. When had he ever experienced such bizarre things, let alone had his head bitten off by a non-human entity?
"You... you stay away from me!"
Fang Xiu kicked his legs back in fear, retreating until he hit the wall at the head of the bed with a thud!
The sound was loud, but he didn't feel any pain at all. He just looked at his wife in terror.
He saw a horrifying look of delight burst forth in his wife's eyes, and the gentle smile on her face instantly turned ferocious.
"You can see me!"
"Ah!!"
The shadow of death once again enveloped Fang Xiu, and he became a headless corpse again.
.....
Never let them know you can see!
The blood-red words pierced Fang Xiu's eyes again. Thump!
Fang Xiu once again sprang up from the bed, gasping for breath.
"Calm down! Calm down! Quickly think about what's going on!" Fang Xiu slapped his face frantically, forcing himself to calm down.
"I died, then came back to life. This looks like a death loop from web novels or movies. Am I stuck in a loop? What exactly is that damn strange thing?"
Fang Xiu's brain worked at lightning speed, trying to figure out what was going on.
However, with the appearance of a gentle female voice, fear once again inevitably interrupted his train of thought.
"Husband, breakfast is ready."
His wife, wearing a gentle smile, slowly walked into the bedroom.
Cold, trembling.
Fang Xiu's whole body was cold and trembling uncontrollably.
He was just an ordinary person, the kind who would vomit after a roller coaster ride and swear never to do it again.
But now, he had been killed three times in a short while. He couldn't control his instinctive fear at all.
"Help! Don't eat me!"
"You can see me!" A look of mad delight once again burst forth on his wife's beautiful face.
Fang Xiu was dead!
....
Thump!
Fang Xiu woke up again.
"I'm alive again! Quick! Think! Death rewind? Infinite loop? Returning to the original starting point after each death? Similar to saving in a game?"
"How should I save myself?"
At this moment, the blood-red writing suddenly disappeared, attracting Fang Xiu's attention.
A sudden flash of insight struck his mind.
Never let them know you can see!?
Them, could it be referring to his wife?
Does this mean that he can't let his wife know he can see her?
"Husband, breakfast is ready."
Fang Xiu's whole body stiffened.
"Calm down! Calm down! Fang Xiu, you can do this. Ignore her, ignore her!"
In the next second, his wife walked gracefully towards him.
Fang Xiu stared straight ahead, his gaze fixed on the wall, not looking at his wife at all.
But cold sweat kept streaming down his face, and his body was trembling slightly, clearly still terrified.
"Husband, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"
Fang Xiu was surprised. The lines had changed? Ignoring her was indeed useful.
But before he could feel happy, a beautiful face appeared right in front of him.
It turned out that his wife had leaned forward, tilting her head slightly, looking concerned and close to him.
At this moment, his wife's stunningly beautiful face was less than ten centimeters away from Fang Xiu's.
Fang Xiu's pupils suddenly contracted, and his gaze uncontrollably fell on his wife's face.
"You can see me!" His wife's fair face began to crack, and dense fissures appeared.
"What the hell!"
Fang Xiu was filled with shock and anger, and he punched his wife's face hard.
He never thought he would become a man who hits his wife in the future, and he had always hated such behavior.
But life was like that; people always ended up living in ways they disliked.
With the punch, Fang Xiu cried out in pain. His hand felt like it had hit a wall and was instantly fractured.
But his wife was unharmed. Her eyes were filled with mad greed, not giving Fang Xiu any time to react. She opened her bloody maw and bit off his arm in one go.
"Ah!!"
A shrill scream echoed in the room.
This time, Fang Xiu's death was very miserable, more miserable than the previous times. At least the previous times were instant kills, but this time he was eaten piece by piece.
It was truly difficult for a normal person to have such an experience, to watch a strange being devour your body bit by bit until death.
