Chapter 18: CH 18

“If I am not the bride of death, why did he resurrect me?!”

There was no resurrection ah…… Su Qingxing knew very well that he had been dead since the moment Bai Hua committed suicide.

That was why he had appeared in this trial of the underworld, and why he had met him, the guide of the underworld.

The resurrection that Bai Hua believed was just a joke.

As for the God of Death ……, whether it was the one in the movie or the one Su Qingxing knew, he would not know the name “Bai Hua” at all.

Bai Hua was still indulging in a dream he had made up, and desperately wanted to leave this trial world, not knowing that the moment he left, it would be the end of everything.

Si Si looked at Bai Hua, who was smiling madly in front of him, and lowered his head to rub Su Qingxing’s hand, in an affectionate and adorable manner, looking nothing like the legendary dream wolf.

Qin Guan and Mu Rong also kept silent, not making any comments because of what Bai Hua said.

“So you’re really the Bride of Death?” Du Wei, who had been silent, walked over with a smile on his face, “Then can you talk to that God of Death so that we can end this game quickly?”

Du Wei, the art teacher, always seemed to be smiling and had a kind and friendly look about him. But he seemed to be treating this as a mere game from the very beginning.

What Du Wei  said seemed to go down well with Bai Hua, who quickly raised his chin and spoke to everyone with a proud look on his face, “Of course! The premise is to get out of here.”

“If we’re going to leave, let’s leave together.” Mu Rong said firmly, “If Death had really decided on his bride, why would any of us marriage candidates exist?”

“Bai Hua, one day your ego will ruin you.” Qin Guan also said seriously with narrowed little eyes.

“If not me, could it still be you guys?” Bai Hua sneered1.

“What if it’s Su Qingxing?” Mu Rong returned the sneer, “Maybe Si Si is Death’s gift to him.”

“Awoo!” Si Si even responded inexplicably.

Su Qingxing was just about to say something when he felt a sudden dizziness in his head, but the feeling passed in the blink of an eye, as if it was a mere illusion, and it came and went as quickly as it could.

After hearing Mu Rong’s words, a particularly terrifying expression appeared on Bai Hua’s face, almost as if he was ready to eat Si Si down in one bite2.

“In any case, Miss Mu Rong, are you ready for this?” Qin Guan didn’t care about Bai Hua’s thoughts and asked Mu Rong bluntly, “The one standing outside now is your boyfriend.”

“I’ve been ready for a long time.” At this moment, Mu Rong also gritted her teeth, “Men are like clothes, they are not as important as life3!”

Then, Mu Rong just pressed the button to open the blinds!

She had to at least face the situation bravely before daring to open the door!

At that moment, everyone saw that the glass wall was full of “people”. Those guys had surrounded the glass wall, staring at Su Qingxing and the others with greedy eyes, while reaching out to wipe the corners of their mouths, hungry to the max!

“Boom!” The one standing at the front, Chief Liu, hit the glass wall once again.

Right next to Chief Liu, that female assistant of Mu Rong trembled as she raised her right hand in the air with an expression of surprise, excitement and curiosity …… and then she bit down on it!

“Director.” The female assistant’s face showed an expression of ecstasy, “My own meat is also delicious!”

They were all so hungry.

But what if there’s no food? Maybe they could eat their own meat.

Then eat it.

“They’re all monsters, not people.” Mu Rong hypnotized herself while watching the familiar faces standing outside the glass wall, cranky because they couldn’t break through it for a while.

It was clear that there was a pile of delicious food on the other side of the glass wall, but they couldn’t get close to the food that was so close at hand even if they banged their heads against it desperately.

“So hungry aaaahhhh!”

“I want to eat …… I’m starving to death!”

As that horrible hunger began to spread, those things outside the glass wall finally found something to eat …… and that was each other!

“Yummy, yummy! So delicious! But I’m still so hungry!” Mu Rong’s assistant bit down on Mr. Liu’s waist.

The picture was appalling.

“Turn around if you’re scared.” Qin Guan stood by Mu Rong’s side, holding the only weapon available in their group, a broken ax.

“You still underestimate me as much as the God of Death.” Instead of mourning and grief, a hint of determination surfaced on Mu Rong’s face, “It’s just some monster that looks like someone I know, even worse than the female ghost in the bathroom!”

Qin watched the change in Mu Rong’s expression and suddenly blurted out, “When you’re single again, how about leaving me a contact?”

“What nonsense!” Mu Rong threw out a direct and nonchalant blank stare.

The situation outside the glass wall had become very bad. One of the most terrifying looking people was Mu Rong’s boyfriend ……

Mr. Liu, with only the upper half of his body intact, relied on the strength of his two arms to crawl out of the crazy group of monsters and held his head high towards where Mu Rong was.

“Mu Rong, I’m so hungry!”

“Help me! I’m starving to death!”

He struggled to get closer to the glass wall, struggling to stretch his arms.

Qin Guan grabbed the remote control directly from Mu Rong’s hand and closed the blinds again.

“Mu Rong, I love you aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!” A high shout came from the other side of the wall, trailing off in a continuous stream ……

It was unknown how long it took, but there was another extremely weak movement –

“Mu Rong, I love you so much, but you won’t let me have enough to eat until death ……”

“Is everything alright?” Qin Guan noticed that Mu Rong smiled bitterly.

“I was just thinking that a fake is a fake after all.” Mu Rong explained with a bitter smile, “He said he wouldn’t expose the fact that the two of us are in an office romance no matter what, because it would affect his future.”

“For the sake of your future? So you just followed him and sneaked around?” Qin Guan scoffed a little.

“Neither.” Mu Rong shook her head, “He has said many times that he would let me quit and then take care of me for the rest of my life. But men aren’t the only ones who want a better future, and not all women like to be taken care of for the rest of their lives, which is why I was ready to break up with him recently.”

At this point, Mu Rong took a sip of water, trying to push down a certain uncomfortable reaction.

“We’ll go out once the voices outside have quieted down.” Qin Guan might really be a qualified detective, so he was very calmly analyzing the situation at this moment, “Bai Hua said that the candidates would all be killed by death if they showed a hint of fear, but no one seemed to have been killed outright by the monster!”

“We might have a chance of escaping safely.” Qin Guan concluded, as if trying to encourage everybody, including himself.

Everyone was in the office listening to the commotion outside, ready to open the door together and rush out when the tearing outside stopped.

The key to the locked door was in Mu Rong’s hand, so Bai Hua didn’t say anything else.

“Mu Rong, do you want to be the bride of death?” While waiting for the opportunity to leave, Qin Guan suddenly asked a question.

“Me?” Mu Rong, who seemed a little tired, smiled, “If there was an internet in the God of Death’s palace, maybe I would consider it4.”

“What about Su Qingxing?” Qin Wei looked to his side, “Do you want to be the bride of the God of Death5?”

Suddenly asked this question, Su Qingxing froze and didn’t notice that the little snow wolf in his arms was raising his neck high, his pair of eyes gleaming as if they could glow and shine.

“I ……” Su Qingxing paused, his grip on Si Si tightened, “I don’t want to, I don’t want to go from one cage to another.”

The dizziness hit again, even Su Qingxing didn’t know what was happening.

“To tell the truth.” When Su Qingxing saw that the atmosphere was suddenly gloomy, he couldn’t help but smile and say, “Instead of being the bride of death, I’d rather spend my life with Si Si! Isn’t that right, Si Si?”

Su Qingxing lifted Si Si’s upper body and faced the tiny snow wolf, asking the little snow wolf with a joking tone, “Si Si, are you willing to spend your life with me?”

“Awooooooooooooooooooooooooo ！！！！！！！！！！！！！！”

It is difficult for Su Qingxing to describe what kind of state Si Si was in at that time, recalling afterwards …… The little snow wolf seemed to be using strong body language to tell everyone: If it’s not me, then which other wolf in this world is crazy enough6?

And while Si Si was rubbing around in his arms, Su Qingxing suddenly saw out of the corner of his eye that Bai Hua and Du Wei were standing together in a nearby corner, whispering something ……

Another wave of drowsiness came through.

Du Wei seemed to be sensitive to Su Qingxing’s sight, and turned around then to give Su Qingxing his usual smile, as if nothing had happened just now.

“The sounds outside seem to have stopped.” Du Wei raised his voice, “Let’s leave now.”

“It’s better.” Qin Guan nodded, “Continuing to wait is not an option.”

“Qin Guan, you and I can be considered to be the only fighting force in the team.” Du Wei still smiled, “You have a weapon, so I’ll trouble you to protect Mu Rong, after all, this is her home turf. Just now, Bai Hua said he would go alone, so let me protect Su Qingxing.”

“Thanks.” Su Qingxing had no problem with Du Wei’s arrangement, but the drowsiness in his head kept coming and going.

What was wrong with him?

Qin Guan unlocked the door with the remote control and placed it smoothly on the cupboard next to the door.

Afterwards, Bai Hua walked out alone at the front, with Qin Guan following closely behind while protecting Mu Rong. The only people left in the office were Du Wei and Su Qingxing, as well as Si Si who was being held in Su Qingxing’s arms.

Du Wei was the first one among the two to step out of the office, and the moment he did so…… the door closed in front of Su Qingxing with a snap!

The remote control of the door lock that had been on the cabinet had disappeared without a trace.

“……”

Everyone had left the office, only Su Qingxing was left behind!

Du Wei took away the remote control and locked the office door, leaving Su Qingxing alone inside!

In the entire office, there was only Su Qingxing!

Su Qingxing could even hear Bai Hua’s laughter ……

“Why is it like this again? Why are humans always like this?” Su Qingxing couldn’t help but hold his forehead, that groggy feeling was getting stronger and stronger.

“Obviously, I’m already used to this kind of thing, and I’ve guessed this kind of ending, but why is my mood still so uncomfortable? Is it like what my Father said, that destruction is more pleasurable than salvation?”

“My head hurts.”

The obsidian eyes turned a ghostly blue, and a gale seemed to blow in the calm office. Papers flew in the air, and the desks and bookcases began to tremble…
