Yun Zhi also felt that her husband looked really handsome when he threw money around.
Although it was funeral money, in a Sinister Game, using funeral money should be reasonable... right?
But she quickly caught on and tentatively said her birthday: "Husband, is it 0527?"
"That's right." The husband confirmed, then helplessly yet lovingly touched her head. "Good thing you still remember your own birthday."
The birthday matched too, so this time Yun Zhi didn't find it strange anymore.
His large palm rested on top of Yun Zhi's head, carrying an ice-cold temperature with no warmth. Yun Zhi quickly shook her head in a coquettish manner: "Husband, I'm hungry. Let's have dinner."
Fortunately, during dinner, the husband didn't say anything more to test her. He just insisted on feeding her himself. Yun Zhi was happy not to lift a finger and directed her husband to pick dishes for her.
After the meal, both the human and the ghoul were very satisfied.
【 I feel full too, full of dog food 】
【 Although, but, well, I have a feeling... 】
【 The one before, I get you 】
【 Also making me eat a weird couple ship in a Sinister Game 】
Yun Zhi got used to getting along with the Eerie Husband.
Just like the hint said, as long as they believed they loved each other, the Eerie Husband wouldn't do anything to her.
It wasn't until it was time to sleep that Yun Zhi started to worry.
Was she really supposed to sleep with the ghoul? Though the taste was a bit heavy, thinking that it was Xie Huaijin's face, it didn't seem impossible...
After all, her decisiveness in agreeing to the marriage alliance with Xie Huaijin was directly linked to how handsome he was.
The ghoul was wearing Xie Huaijin's face. Maybe she should?
Unfortunately, her husband didn't give her more time to think. He simply led her to lie down on the bed.
Just as Yun Zhi was nervously yet expectantly watching the Eerie Husband approach, the husband simply wrapped both arms around her waist and innocently closed his eyes...
Closed his eyes!
Haha, she had been overthinking.
Seeming to notice Yun Zhi's change in mood, the husband opened his eyes again: "Wife, aren't you sleeping yet?"
Yun Zhi: "...Sleep!"
The husband hugged her tighter: "Good night, wife."
"Good night." Yun Zhi felt the ice-cold aura from the Eerie Husband and closed her eyes too.
【 So it was sleeping, I thought it was *sleeping* 】
【 Haha, look at this mess 】
【 No way, I had my pants off and this is what I get? 】
【 Do you guys still remember this is a Sinister Game? The ghoul in the next live stream room has already eaten three rounds 】
【 But speaking of which, isn't this beautiful female player's heart too big? Being held by a ghoul in this situation and actually being able to sleep 】
【 Logically, night should be when the ghouls are most active. Who would dare to sleep? 】
Late at night, when the live stream room had quieted down, pairs of greedy eyes outside the window in the darkness pressed close to the glass, as if they had discovered delicious food.
But before they could get close, they sensed some terrifying aura and scattered in panic.
The "husband" slowly opened his eyes and cast a warning glare toward the window, with undispersed killing intent in the depths of his gaze.
He looked exactly like a murderous god about to have his wife snatched away.
After those gazes disappeared, he lowered his head to look at Yun Zhi sleeping peacefully in his arms and hugged her even tighter.
Wife, his!
Whoever dares to take her, die!

Just after waking up in the morning, Yun Zhi was met with a pair of eyes staring straight at her.
Those eyes were pitch black, without any highlights, looking as terrifying as dead things.
Scary as hell!
Yun Zhi instinctively leaned back, but suddenly realizing something, her hand that was about to slap him in the face instead hooked around his neck.
"Husband, morning~"
What was there to be afraid of? This was her most beloved darling husband~
The husband's pitch black eyes finally curved slightly, as if smiling indulgently: "Wife, time to get up and have breakfast."
His gaze was still unabashedly fixed on her, sending chills down her spine.
Under his stare, Yun Zhi naturally leaned in and gave him a peck: "Another day of loving my husband."
The husband was clearly happier, picked her up from the bed, helped her change clothes, and took her to the bathroom that had been bloody yesterday.
The bathroom looked exceptionally clean today, with no trace of blood smell or a clump of hair in the toilet.
But if you listened closely, it seemed like there was a "dong dong" chopping sound coming from upstairs.
Yun Zhi finished her quick wash without paying much attention.
The husband prepared breakfast, and the taste was surprisingly good. However, after breakfast, the husband had to go to work again.
"Wife, be good and stay home. Don't tire yourself out, and don't open the door for just anyone."
"Mm-hmm." Yun Zhi helped him straighten his tie, stood on tiptoe, and kissed the corner of his lips. "Husband, work hard."
In reality, she hadn't even held hands with her deceased husband, yet in the Instance, she was getting more and more skilled at kissing the Eerie Husband.
Wasn't this also a kind of progress?
The husband gave Yun Zhi a deep look before closing the door.
【 This is dating, right? Definitely, right? 】
【 Isn't it normal for a real couple to kiss? Like I often kiss Zhi Zhi, what's the big deal 】
【 Is the one before not awake? Let me wake you up with some urine 】
After the Eerie Husband left, Yun Zhi felt the house grow colder, and the faint chopping sound became clearer.
"Dong dong dong," it seemed even the floorboards were vibrating.
The sound came from the upstairs neighbor. Yun Zhi frowned but ignored it.
Yesterday, when she first entered the Instance, she focused on cleaning the house and preparing dinner. Later, the husband came home, and she stayed with the Eerie Husband the whole time.
Now that her husband wasn't home, she could finally take a good look around the house today.
She entered the master bedroom, searched through the bedside cabinet, and found their marriage certificate.
Her name 【 Yun Zhi 】 was very clear, but at the position of the husband's name, it had been repeatedly scribbled over with black ink, making the writing illegible.
As for where the wedding photo should have been, the husband's head had been torn out. Only Yun Zhi's face remained, expressionless and without a smile.
Only then did Yun Zhi remember something. She looked up at the wall of the master bedroom, which was completely empty.
"In this house, it seems there isn't a single wedding photo of me and my husband." Yun Zhi scratched her head.
"Logically, as a loving couple, a wedding photo should definitely be hung in the master bedroom."
【 Makes sense. Only if a couple's relationship has broken down would they take down the wedding photo, right? 】
【 Isn't this a horror Instance? Why is there a deduction part? 】
【 The truth is only one: the husband has issues 】
【 He's already a ghoul; can he still not have issues? 】
Just as Yun Zhi was pondering, the doorbell rang.
The clear doorbell echoed through the empty room, carrying a hint of fear.
Yun Zhi walked to the front door. The doorbell rang more urgently with each ring.
She remembered her husband's warning before he left—
"Don't open the door for just anyone."
Yun Zhi didn't open the door. Instead, she brought her eye close to the peephole.
The next moment, a blood-red pupil on the other side pressed against the peephole, staring straight inside through the door.
