You are my wife, don't doubt it!

The armor on his body disappeared suddenly, and he lay on the bed face to face with Shen Jie, tightly pressed against each other.

The boy who was pressed tightly could feel the girl's body temperature, feel her violently beating heart, and smell the faint orchid fragrance of her hair and body.

These are the "tastes" that Xiao Yao is already very familiar with.

He had a thought in his mind.

Is it really her?

Xiao Yao knew that Shen Jie knew karate.

If she subdued me with one move when we just met, it would be very reasonable.

But I am no longer the same person I used to be.

The other party could have such a strong fighting power, either it was Shen Jie herself, or it was a projection of her own consciousness, or...

Or he is already dead.

Xiao Yao's mind moved, and he raised his head as if possessed by a ghost, and pecked the girl's tender and tempting red lips.

"Aiya!!!!" Shen Jie immediately yelled and slapped Xiao Yao with her fist. Then she jumped off the bed and retreated to the corner: "Fuck you!"

Xiao Yao was dizzy and dazed by the slap, and there was a loud buzzing sound in his ears.

The left side of his face felt burning, as if it was about to catch fire.

The slap was so powerful that it knocked Xiao Yao to the ground.

Yes, he fell right off the bed.

The boy fell awkwardly onto the carpet, feeling sharp pains in his back and shoulders.

"You are sick!" Xiao Yao didn't bother to rub his burning cheeks, because he had already touched the hilt of his sword. While trying to pick up the sword, he cursed loudly: "Are you fake?"

Shen Jie squatted in the corner, looking at him angrily, her not-so-small chest heaving up and down violently with anger.

Her eyes were red, and her tone was filled with fear and disappointment: "Xiao Yao, how could you do this! I trusted you and treated you as a friend, but you took advantage of me!"

"We are an old couple, what are you doing?" Xiao Yao's face turned pale, he clenched his sword tightly in his hand, and pressed it against Shen Jie's chest again: "Who are you?"

"Who said we were married?! We've only known each other for a dozen days, you bastard, this is my first kiss!" Shen Jie cried angrily, "I knew you were interested in me, I knew your motives were not pure, I specifically told you that I have a fiancé, don't you understand?"

Xiao Yao: “???”

Shen Jie: "In the end, you still attacked me, and now you are pointing a sword at me? What do you want to do next? I tell you, even if I die, I will never let you succeed!"

After saying that, she ignored the sword tip against her chest, stood up, rushed to the door in two steps, opened the door violently, and was about to run out.

Xiao Yao lowered the tip of his sword, hurried forward, and grabbed the girl's wrist: "Wait! Listen to my explanation! Let me smooth it over!"

"Let me go!" Shen Jie struggled to shake off his hand.

As the two of them were pulling each other, Xiao Yao lost his balance and fell to the ground again.

……

……

After a period of chaos, Xiao Yao and Shen Jie were finally able to sit down and communicate effectively and sort out the situation together.

Xiao Yao realized that if the other party was not setting a trap for him, this Shen Jie was neither real nor fake - she was the Shen Jie whom he met at the gate of No. 7 Girls' High School, where she was chatting up a cat while walking on a leash.

Little Shen Jie, who he had known for half a month.

Shen Jie, who chatted with him on the phone and texted with him for a long period of time that October.

"So, the person who called me to invite me to Qiangui for my birthday party wasn't you?" Xiao Yao slapped his head and said, "I was wondering if your voice sounded weird that day."

"I didn't ask you out," Shen Jie shook her head and said, "Zhou Xiaoying's birthday is not in October at all."

"I understand." Xiao Yao nodded.

"I was kidnapped the day after school started after the October holiday," Shen Jie told Xiao Yao.

The van and sacks were all very common means, and then Shen Jie was brought "here".

Shen Jie was imprisoned in a basement, with no one guarding her and no one bringing her water or food, but she never felt hungry or thirsty.

Until today, by chance, she successfully escaped from prison, crossed half of the city, and came here.

"Most of the city? Wait, why here?" Xiao Yao asked Shen Jie.

"You've asked too many questions," Shen Jie rolled her eyes slightly, "Now it's your turn to tell me what you know - and what exactly is this about old married couples?"

Xiao Yao hesitated for a moment and said, "I feel that even if I tell you, you won't believe it, let alone feel happy."

"Speak," Shen Jie urged, "Whether I believe it or not is my business. You must tell me everything you know in full and in detail. Don't hide a single word."

"Ha, a domineering female CEO, huh?" Xiao Yao said with a smile, "Then you have to promise me one thing."

"You're so hesitant," Shen Jie complained, "Speak."

"Don't hit me again," Xiao Yao said, covering his face, "I'm still dizzy, tinnitus, and concussion. If this happens now..."

"Okay, okay, I get it," Shen Jie said angrily, "Why would I hit you if you didn't take advantage of me? I'm telling you, this matter isn't over yet...!"

"Oh..." Xiao Yao let out a long sigh.

It seems there is no other choice.

Xiao Yao began to tell Shen Jie everything he remembered.

As the amount of information was too large, Xiao Yao tried to explain it to Shen Jie in a brief and easy-to-understand way, but the latter still frowned as she listened.

At first, Shen Jie could still listen to him quietly with a frown on her face, but later she began to sneer while listening, and finally she became impatient.

"You see, I told you I didn't want to tell you," Xiao Yao complained, "You didn't listen even if I told you, and you didn't believe me even if I heard you, so what's the point of telling you—"

"You want to tell me," Shen Jie said softly, "the world I live in is fake."

"Yes." Xiao Yao nodded and said, "It exists in the human mind."

"My memories of the past ten years are all fake," Shen Jie nodded calmly, "including myself. I am not a human being, I am also fake and do not exist. I am just a projection of consciousness."

"No, no, no," Xiao Yao waved his hands with a somewhat hurried breath, "I didn't say that. This is indeed a possibility, but... I won't and can't say anything about things that cannot be concluded."

"But in the real world - as you said, in the real world outside," Shen Jie's voice began to gradually cool down: "I am your girlfriend - the real me, for your sake, I have escaped marriages many times and even broke up with my parents -"

Xiao Yao wanted to tell Shen Jie, "Actually, you don't have a mother," but after thinking about it, he didn't say anything.

"I'm willing to break up with my parents to live with you—" Shen Jie's eyes seemed to be spitting fire: "Do you still want to tell me that I have become a real couple with you?!"

"Well, uh, I didn't say that—" Xiao Yao pointed out awkwardly: "At least I didn't mention that part, right?"

"Student Xiao Yao," Shen Jie sneered, "Tell me honestly, if you were me, would you believe these lies?"

"It's really hard to believe and accept," Xiao Yao admitted honestly, "but at least I would think that this is possible - otherwise, how can I explain that I was locked up in the basement for so many days without having to eat, drink, defecate or urinate?"

Shen Jie's eyes dimmed a little, and she said in a low and weak voice: "I don't believe you."

"No problem at all." Xiao Yao raised his hands and declared, "It's okay."

"Then according to what you said," Shen Jie continued in a low voice, "the person who kidnapped me is my fiancé?"

"I don't have any evidence," Xiao Yao said rigorously, "but based on the known information and common sense, I think he is the most suspicious person - isn't this easy to understand?"

"Based on the information we know, and common sense, you are a person who will do anything to pry me away from him," Shen Jie argued, "You look like that no matter how you look at it, and the more you look at it, the more you look like that."

Xiao Yao thought about it and honestly admitted, "I think so too - it does look alike."

Shen Jie: "..."

"But you can take a look at this," Xiao Yao led Shen Jie to the west wall of the room, raised his phone to illuminate her, and directed her to look at the photo wall: "This at least shows that your fiancé seems to be a pervert."

Shen Jie casually swept her eyes across the wall of photos. On the surface, the girl's expression was calm, as if it was not the first time she had seen it.

"It also means that at least he loves me very, very much?"

"Hiss—well..." Xiao Yao hesitated for a moment and said, "As far as this is concerned, I really can't deny it—I have never been able to deny it."

Shen Jie: "..."

Xiao Yao blurted out: "Actually, me too."

"What?" Shen Jie was stunned.

"I love you very much." Xiao Yao said.

Shen Jie: "Shut up."

Xiao Yao: "Hey, hey, okay."

"These don't mean anything," Shen Jie commented, "As my fiancé, what's wrong with saving some of my photos?"

Xiao Yao closed his mouth tightly - he knew that "Shen Jie" just couldn't accept the reality for a while, and it was useless to argue with her. At this moment, it would be better to accompany her quietly and not put more pressure on her.

"In fact, if you saw the scene on the road when I came here," Shen Jie said softly, "you would know that these photos are nothing at all."

"What did you see on the road when you came here?" Xiao Yao asked in confusion, "What did you see?"

"Let me take you to see it," Shen Jie turned around and reached out to push the door again: "Let me make it clear first, I will act with you, but this does not mean that I believe you - believe everything you say."

"ookk." Xiao Yao said.

"But no matter what, our goals should be the same for now," Shen Jie said, "The first is to find a way to leave this damn place."

Xiao Yao turned his head and looked at the dog hole through which he had crawled out of Qiangui KTV: the entrance of the hole had completely disappeared.

"I agree." Xiao Yao said, "The second thing is to find your fiancée - go to hell, find that damn Zhang Zhengkai and confront him face to face."

"I agree." After saying this, Shen Jie pushed the door and walked out.

Xiao Yao followed closely behind.

……

“Wow,” he said.

When Xiao Yao walked out of the room, he found himself in a huge underground city.

The city was shrouded in darkness, for there was no sky at all—the dome was high, but still visible, and made one realize that one was actually in a huge underground cave.

There are tall buildings all around, and the streets and squares are crowded with people. From time to time, a few speeding cars pass by overhead, making a low roar.

This city at night looks like a scene from a futuristic science fiction movie, or like a huge three-dimensional maze.

A plump girl wearing a thick down jacket walked past Xiao Yao and Shen Jie.

Xiao Yao glanced at her casually and looked away.

Then he turned his gaze back again and stared at her.

Even the neck is rotating.

"Okay, stop looking." Shen Jie said softly, pulling his sleeve.

Xiao Yao turned around in horror: "She, she..."

"Don't make a fuss, just look at them." Shen Jie pointed at the passers-by around her.

So Shen Jie looked at others - the faces of other passers-by.

There wasn't a single man on the entire street.

Every one of them walking on the street, no matter how old or young, tall or short, fat or thin, has the same face: Shen Jie's face.

Chapter 387 It’s over! I’m surrounded by Shen Jie!

2023-11-21

Chapter 387 It’s over! I’m surrounded by Shen Jie~!

Damn! I'm surrounded by Shen Jie~!

Shen Jie was all around.

Xiao Yao subconsciously pinched the wrist of Shen Jie who was standing beside him.

"You hurt me!" Shen Jie complained, trying to pull her wrist free. She tried several times but failed, so she had no choice but to let him hold her wrist.

"You've told me this before." Xiao Yao told Shen Jie.

Shen Jie understood what Xiao Yao meant and angrily stepped on him hard.

"OUCH!" Xiao Yao said.
