Chapter 3 You can see me!
Upon waking up again, Fang Xu had lost his sanity. The horrific experience of his previous death made it impossible for him to remain calm.
"Ah! Fuck! Fuck! Fuck!"
Fang Xu cursed like a maniac.
"Honey, it's time for breakfast."
His wife walked in with a smile.
"I'm not eating shit!"
"I'm gonna fucking kill you!"
"Can you see me?!"
"I see you!"
Fang Xu charged towards his wife, like a sheep charging towards a tiger.
As expected, he died again, and it was a gruesome death this time.
For the fourth time.
After going through the motions of breaking down, Fang Xu calmed down. This time, he chose to close his eyes.
If it was difficult to ignore, he would simply close his eyes.
Perhaps due to the numerous deaths, he felt less frightened than before, and had a sense of fearlessness, like he was a hero again after eighteen years.
"Honey, it's time for breakfast."
Fang Xu ignored her, still keeping his eyes closed as if he was still asleep.
"Honey, are you not awake yet? The sun is already shining."
His wife's voice echoed in his ears.
Fang Xu could imagine a beautiful and gentle woman, dressed in a white nightgown, squatting by his bedside, gazing at his profile with a pampering look on her face.
She might even be supporting her smooth and fair chin with one hand, tilting her head slightly, with a hint of helplessness on her exquisite face.
"Honey~ Are you still not going to have breakfast?"
If you stumble upon this tale on Amazon, it's taken without the author's consent. Report it.
Fang Xu remained unmoved, because he was very aware that the so-called breakfast was not for him to eat, but for him to be eaten as breakfast.
Besides, he had already made up his mind, even if the sky was falling, he wouldn't get up.
Every time he woke up, he was bitten to death. There was no way he could enjoy a good morning with his wife biting him.
After a few attempts, his wife stopped when she realized he was still sound asleep.
Did she leave?
That damn bitch, does she not make any noise when she walks?
Afraid to open his eyes, Fang Hu decided to wait.
The room was silent, so silent that Fang Hu could only hear his own breathing and heartbeat.
Suddenly, he noticed something strange. According to normal logic, his wife should have nudged him to wake him up instead of continuously calling out to him. Why wasn't she making any physical contact?
Could it be that she couldn't make physical contact until she confirmed that he could see her? Was that why?
Fang Hu now understood the meaning of the phrase "never let them know you can see them."
Despite the rare quiet, Fang Hu didn't waste any time and began to think.
What were they exactly?
Who wrote the blood-red words on the ceiling?
Why did they disappear mysteriously after he saw them?
Why could he die and go back in time repeatedly?
With so little information, it was impossible to deduce anything.
He tried to absorb the memories of the body's original owner in hopes of finding some clues.
An hour passed.
This was the longest he had survived, and he had finished organizing the memories and gained a better understanding of this world.
It was not much different from his previous life, with a modern urban backdrop and people living normal lives. The only difference was that there seemed to be more eerie stories in this world. Although they were all unfounded, there were clearly too many of them.
Could my wife be a monster!?
At this point, Fang Hu was starting to want to open his eyes, not because he was impatient, but because he was afraid of wetting the bed.
As everyone knows, you have to pee after waking up.
For an adult, wetting the bed was really embarrassing, second only to defecating in public.
And with so much time passing without any movement, his wife might have already left.
But out of caution, Fang Xiu held it for another hour.
He couldn't let his bladder get the better of him.
Fang Xiu decided to get up, but still had concerns. Being a frequent horror movie viewer, he was really afraid that as soon as he opened his eyes, a beautiful face would be staring back at him, up close and personal - the kind of face-to-face encounter that often appears in horror movies.
At this point, his bladder was nearly bursting, so he cautiously opened his eyes a crack. His vision was blurry, obstructed by thick eyelashes, and he couldn't see anything clearly. But he could at least see if there was anything obstructing his view.
Nothing!
It seemed like there was nothing in front of him, just the white ceiling visible through his eyelashes.
Fang Xiu breathed a sigh of relief.
The first step was successful; the scariest image didn't appear.
Then he turned his head to see if his wife was still in bed. But he found that she wasn't there either!
The bed was empty.
His courage grew, and he slowly sat up, even stretching lazily to appear as if he were fully awake. He pretended to move his stiff neck, half-closing his eyes, and looked around.
The entire bedroom was empty!
Great! She finally left!
But he couldn't let his guard down; his wife could still be outside.
Now, going to the bathroom could mean running into her.
Fang Xiu is not stupid, he never intended to leave the bedroom to go to the bathroom.
Throughout countless horror movies, who wouldn't know there's something eerie and still go to the toilet?
He planned to take care of business right where he was, and pee in the bedroom's trash can.
Bedwetting was truly unacceptable, so he had to pee in the trash can.
Just as he slowly got up and his feet touched the floor.
That dreamlike and gentle female voice suddenly sounded from behind him.
"Honey, are you awake?"
Fang Xiu's scalp exploded in an instant, horrified.
He instinctively turned around like an electric shock.
At first glance, his blood almost froze and his breathing suddenly stopped.
He saw a fair-skinned beauty's face embedded in the pillow he had just been lying on!
The beauty had a gentle and watery smile on her face, and looked at the frightened Fang Xiu with tenderness in her eyes.
It was his wife!
His wife seemed to have no physical form, her whole body lying in the bed as if in water, only showing her face, with the rest of her body covered by the bed.
"Fuck!!!"
Fang Xiu was startled by this sudden terrifying sight, and almost jumped up.
He had taken every precaution, afraid of scaring his wife, but never expected her to not play by the rules at all, and be under him!?
When did this happen?
Did he really lie on top of his wife for two hours while on the bed?
I've been lying on top of my wife for two hours!?
This thought appeared and endless fear spread rapidly throughout Fang Xiu's body.
"You can see me!"
