100 ways to kill your husband

Chapter 16, Fifth Time: I'm Not a Psychopath

Wen Xu's words struck a nerve with Wang Run.

Although Wang Run mentioned money, his motives went beyond just money. The day before the incident, his daughter, who suffered from congenital heart disease, died in the hospital's emergency room because her treatment was delayed due to lack of funds. His dazed wife was also killed when she left the hospital and was struck by a speeding car. Wang Run believed that if Cheng Jin hadn't withheld his salary, his daughter and wife wouldn't have died.

He was determined to die; asking Cheng Jin for money was just an excuse. He wanted to kill Cheng Jin to avenge his wife and daughter.

Wen Xu learned all this from a true story column. Besides Wang Run's motive for murder, it also mentioned the reason he was fired: without Cheng Jin's consent, he handed over money that a customer had dropped in Jin Xin Ji directly to the police. His kindness brought him utter destruction; he broke down, and Wen Xu's words further enraged him. Wen Xu's well-maintained, fair face blended together with Cheng Jin's oily face.

Wang Run pressed harder against Wen Xu's neck, and a red mark appeared instantly. If he had pressed the knife any further, he would have slashed Wen Xu's throat.

Wen Xu wasn't afraid at all. She stared intently at Lu Heng. Others might think she trusted Lu Heng, but she was actually waiting for him to explode. She knew that Lu Heng was even more sensitive than Wang Run, and he couldn't stand being ignored.

As expected, Lu Heng's expression turned gloomy, and his eyes, which usually curved when he smiled, shot out a sharp gaze.

"Since I was born, very few people have dared to threaten me. I've tolerated you for a long time, and you still dare to touch my woman with your filthy hands. If you make any more moves, I guarantee you'll die a horrible death."

Wen Xu chimed in, "Yes, brother, don't be so pessimistic. As long as you're alive, you can always start over. My husband may be quick-tempered, but he keeps his word. The watch he's wearing is worth hundreds of thousands. If you don't believe me, take the watch as collateral."

Upon hearing her words, Lu Heng immediately took off his watch from his wrist. His head was held high, his eyebrows were raised, and the way he took off the watch was so effortless and confident that it only further enraged Wang Run.

He roared, "Who the hell wants your money! I want you all to die with me!"

His knife slit Wenxu's throat. Before the blood stained her vision, she grabbed her neck with both hands, trying to slow the bleeding. She watched as Lu Heng took a step back in fright. He was a size larger than Wang Run, with strong, powerful inverted triangle muscles from years of working out, but he stood there helplessly.

Wang Run stepped forward and lunged at Lu Heng. Lu Heng grabbed a chair and smashed it at Wang Run, but the knife got stuck in the chair. Wang Run then drew another knife from his waist and stabbed Lu Heng in the chest. Lu Heng watched as blood gushed out of his chest, pushed Wang Run away, and then let out a strange cry.

"Ugh! I actually got ruined by this trash!"

When Wenxu saw his body crash to the ground, she felt a surge of intense pleasure, and the pain in her neck lessened.

Lu Heng slowly crawled to her side and whispered in her ear in a voice only the two of them could hear, "It's all your fault..."

Wen Xu, who had already fallen to the ground, suddenly pulled the knife out of his chest, and with his last bit of strength stood up and stabbed Wang Run in the back. The hall instantly turned into a sea of ​​blood.

Wen Xu thought to himself: No wonder he killed me three times. He has no pity for me. He hates Wang Run only because Wang Run hurt his self-esteem, touched his things, and made him realize that he is not omnipotent. He treats me as his possession.

Wen Xu felt the strength gradually dissipate from her hands, but she wasn't afraid. She couldn't wait for her next rebirth to verify her guess.

"This woman is courting death!"

After booing her, a male audience member gave a lazy comment.

Wen Xu chuckled inwardly; she was courting death. She needed to know how much the audience's feedback would affect her, but that wasn't her only objective. She needed to know if she could jump to the crucial point she herself had created, and whether she could be killed by unrelated people. This was what she was thinking when that man possessed her and pushed her out the window.

"If you were kidnapped, could you do better than her? I thought she was done for after being stabbed like that, but she still managed to jump up and fight back! That's amazing! I like her."

Another female viewer praised her, and she even heard the sound of a coin hitting the ground. This was the first time she had ever heard such a sound. Could this be a tip?

Before she could figure it out, she heard Su Yi's angry roar.

"How dare you fool me!"

Wen Xu opened her eyes and found herself in the white room again. The woman in white standing before her now had distorted features, while Wen Xu sat in a chair with a backrest in Jin Xin Ji's room. She moved her neck; the stab wound in her chest had healed. She answered Su Yi in a calm voice.

"Just tell me, do the audience like it or not?"

Su Yi was speechless for a long time before finally saying, "Are you a psychopath?"

Wen Xu knew her judgment was correct; audience feedback was crucial for the reality show. Even plain clothes couldn't stop the audience from liking her, and their affection would bring rewards.

Su Yi tried one last desperate attempt, saying, "You and Lu Heng should have killed each other..."

"But now we've all been killed by others, what kind of punishment will we receive?"

Su Yi glared at her and said reluctantly, "No, this time, none of you will receive any rewards or punishments from the reality show."

Wen Xu also achieved another goal: she knew that if one of her and Lu Heng died at the hands of the other, the murdered person would be punished. She wanted to know what would happen to them if they died at the hands of someone else. She could only ask one question a day, and she couldn't waste this opportunity, so she decided to find out for herself.

What she fears most now is not death, but living a meaningless life.

"Although some viewers think you're crazy, there are still some viewers who like your performance. They think you stabbed Lu Heng to avenge him. This is their reward for you."

Several words formed by silver light appeared in the air: "Big rat, big rat, do not eat my millet."

Then the silver characters quickly disappeared, and Su Yi raised her hands and shrugged to indicate that was all.

Wen Xu knew that this poem was selected from "The Book of Songs: Wei Feng: The Big Rat". The poem uses the big rat as a metaphor for the greedy exploiting class, denounces their cruel exploitation, and expresses the people's longing for a beautiful homeland.

But what does this have to do with her crisis?
