Outrageous! Who said my wife is vain?!

Don't trust anyone!

You don't belong in this world!

Remember this: it's all fake! It's all fake!

The key has been found!

Find the door!!!

....

"Brother Chu."

"Brother Chu."

"Honey! What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"

Chu Yu tried to shake off the faint voice in his head, pinched his brow, and his mind cleared up a little.

He looked down at Mingxi, who was looking at him with concern, and patted his head gently, saying, "I'm fine. I was just thinking about company matters and got a little distracted."

"Really? But you look like you have a really bad headache. I think I should have the doctor come up and take a look at you, or we can go straight to the hospital."

After saying that, Mingxi got up to change her clothes and take Chu Yu to the hospital.

Chu Yu smiled and shook his head, pulling him back into his arms. "Really, it's not necessary. I was just a little dizzy, probably because I didn't sleep well yesterday. Don't worry, I'm a grown man, I would definitely tell you if I felt unwell."

Seeing that he didn't seem to be in any pain, Mingxi gave up, but still cautioned, "Brother Chu, please don't avoid seeking medical help. What will Jinghe and I do if something happens to you? What will happen to our family?"

As she spoke, Mingxi stretched out her arms and hugged Chu Yu's neck, resting her head against his chest and nuzzling him like a spoiled kitten.

Seeing Mingxi so worried about him, Chu Yu felt a surge of warmth in his heart. He hugged the person in his arms tighter and kissed the top of his head. "Of course not, and I can't possibly get into trouble. I want to grow old with you. By the way, where's Jinghe?"

"Jinghe went to summer camp, huh? Brother Chu, you're still so young, and your memory is already failing?" Mingxi teased with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Chu Yu seemed to suddenly recall his son going to summer camp.

This feeling gave Chu Yu an indescribable sense of strangeness, but he only said, "It might be due to lack of sleep, which has caused my memory to be a little poor."

"It's not just a little bad, it's absolutely terrible. You almost forgot the anniversary of our first date the other day, I had to remind you," Mingxi complained.

"Tell me, how are you going to make it up to me?"

Mingxi looked like she was saying, "If you don't give me a satisfactory answer today, this isn't over."

Chu Yu curled the corners of his lips and pinched his cheek. "So what do you want? I'll do whatever you ask."

Hearing him say that, Mingxi's big eyes darted around, and she immediately had an idea: "I want you to swear!"

Chu Yu raised an eyebrow. "Swear an oath? What oath?"

"I swear that no matter what happens, you will stay by Jinghe's and my side, stay in this world, never, ever leave, and always be with us."

What was originally just a joke between the couple turned into something strange when Mingxi's expression became unusually serious, making the atmosphere seem a little odd.

Chu Yu didn't think much of it. After all, in his memory, Mingxi liked to "act out" this kind of thing all the time.

Chu Yu chuckled softly, took Mingxi's hand, and said earnestly, "I swear, I will always stay by your and Jinghe's side, stay in this world forever, and our family will never be separated."

Hearing him swear, Mingxi's big cat-like eyes lit up, and his smile stretched almost to his ears. He grabbed Chu Yu's neck and showered him with kisses, "Honey! Husband, I love you so much! Honey! Honey! Honey! I love you to death!"

"Haha! Is it really that big of a deal? I would never have left you two anyway. You two are my whole world." Chu Yu patted Mingxi's back, trying to calm the overly excited kitten down.

"I know you are our whole world. Without you, there would be no us. Husband, I really love you so much."

"Me too, I love you too."

The two embraced each other, exchanging words of love and harmony.

......

After dinner, Mingxi, unusually, didn't pester Chu Yu to take a bath together, but instead inexplicably went into the bathroom alone.

Chu Yu also got some long-awaited time alone, lying on the recliner in front of the French windows, listening to music, drinking tea, and admiring the two incredibly beautiful moons in the sky.

Just then, a series of hurried footsteps and slightly panicked voices interrupted Chu Yu's thoughts. "Chu Yu! You're completely lost in the beautiful dream it's woven for you. Do you even remember who you are?!"

Chu Yu frowned, looking at the newcomer with some impatience. It was his steward, Li Yujing.

The butler looked very different from usual. He still looked the same, but his whole demeanor was like that of a different person. He seemed a bit neurotic and abnormal.

While cautiously looking around, Li Yujing spoke in a language that Chu Yu couldn't understand, "This small world is not as simple as we imagine. It will assimilate every outsider, assimilate our memories and bodies, until it turns us into monsters like them."

"Upon entering this world, we are the only two people left who haven't been completely assimilated, Chu Yu! We must..."

Chu Yu felt increasingly that the butler was acting strangely, so he sat up and interrupted him, "Butler Li, have you experienced any changes in your life recently? If you need any help, just ask. I can arrange for you to see some of the top psychologists and psychiatrists in the country."

Seeing that he treated her as a mental patient, Li Yujing wasn't angry; instead, she felt anxious and desperate.

Chu Yu was the most powerful and intelligent among them. It was Chu Yu who woke him up yesterday, told him where the door was, and asked him to wait for him overnight while he went to get the key.

Why was he so deeply bewitched by the monster after only one night? Can the two of them even escape?!

Li Yujing's mind was in a mess, but now was not the time to think about such things. The most important thing now was to wake up Chu Yu, get the key, and leave this hellish place.

Thinking this, Li Yujing went straight up and grabbed Chu Yu's arm. "To make a long story short, we're not from this world, and you're not the Chu Yu you think you are. Everything you're seeing now is fake. Your so-called lover is a monster. What you need to do is... Ah! What are you doing?!"

At this moment, in Chu Yu's eyes, Li Yujing was a mentally ill person experiencing an episode.

When Li Yujing was talking nonsense, Chu Yu didn't say anything. He was just quietly looking for an opportunity to capture him.

"Let go of me! I'm not crazy! Ah! My arm! Chu Yu! Time is running out. If we don't leave through the door before midnight tonight, we'll be assimilated into this world!"

"I don't want to become a monster! Let me go! Don't you believe me? Don't you believe your own memories? How did you and Mingxi meet? How did you fall in love? What did your child look like when it was born? Do you remember anything?"

"Chu Yu! Remember it quickly! I'm begging you!"

After capturing Li Yujing, Chu Yu originally intended to have someone rush him to the hospital.

But for some reason, it seemed that everyone else in the house was gone. No matter how he called out, no one responded, and he couldn't make any phone calls outside.

Didn't Mingxi, who was taking a shower in the bathroom, hear such a loud noise?

Everything was so wrong, and as Li Yujing kept spouting those so-called "truths," it was as if a switch in Chu Yu's brain had been flipped.

A barrage of complex memories assaulted Chu Yu's senses, mixing with his current memories and causing his head to throb as if it were about to split open.

"Ah! Ah!" The intense pain and pulling sensation made Chu Yu release his grip on Li Yujing's hand, and instead he clutched his head and collapsed to the ground.

Seeing this, Li Yujing was overjoyed and quickly helped up the pained Chu Yu. "You remembered! That's great! That's great! Where's the key? Is it on you?"

"My talisman won't hold that monster for long. We need to grab the key, open the door, and get out of this hellhole." With that, Li Yujing began to search Chu Yu's body.

"Snapped!"

"Ouch... Why did you hit my hand?!" Li Yujing shouted, clutching her burning hand.

The next second, he realized what was happening. Looking at the expressionless Chu Yu in front of him, he said with a mixture of surprise and caution, "Your head doesn't hurt anymore? You've remembered everything completely?"

"Say something, brother! This isn't the time to show off. Yesterday you told me you were going to get the keys, where are they? You didn't get them, did you?"

After he said so much, Chu Yu simply said, "Got it."

"Good that you got it. Let's go now." Li Yujing patted her chest, grabbed Chu Yu's arm, and started to leave. "I don't want to stay in this godforsaken place for another second."

"Brother Chu, where are you guys going?"

At that moment, a sinister male voice suddenly rang out from inside the room; the newcomer was none other than Mingxi.

Mingxi still looked like a normal human being, but her pretty face, which had little expression, still made Li Yujing shudder.

Chu Yu's expression didn't change much, but his gaze towards Ming Xi was full of complex emotions.

Li Yujing grabbed Chu Yu's arm with one hand and pulled a gleaming dagger from his waist with the other. "Brother Chu, it's two against one, we have a great chance of winning."

However, before he could finish speaking, Mingxi clapped his hands, and a group of strangely shaped creatures instantly rushed into the room.

"Don't hurt Brother Chu, kill the other one directly." With Mingxi's order, a chaotic battle was about to break out.

"Damn it! They specifically targeted me, but I'm not one to be trifled with!"

"Brother Chu! Help me!"

"Damn it! You monstrous monster! Die!"

....

The sounds of fists, curses, roars, wails, and flesh being torn apart... all intertwined to create a horrifying scene.

Those who have survived so many worlds are not weaklings and have many life-saving treasures.

After a fierce battle, Chu Yu and Li Yujing were both wounded, but Mingxi's henchmen were all dead.

Once they've dealt with "Mingxi," they can leave.

Mingxi didn't even glance at her dead subordinates, but looked at Chu Yu with teary eyes, "Husband, don't you want me anymore? Don't you want me and Jinghe anymore? You promised you'd never leave us."

"I love you! Don't you love me anymore? Wouldn't it be better to stay here with me and Jinghe? We'd be so happy as a family of three! Brother Chu~"

Although he knew Mingxi was not human, Chu Yu still felt a sharp pain in his heart when he saw Mingxi's extremely sorrowful face.

His usually expressionless face was moved; he opened his mouth as if to say something, but ultimately kept it closed.

Seeing this, Mingxi cried even harder, "Brother Chu, if you leave, Jinghe will have no father. Don't go! Stay with us."

No sooner had he finished speaking than Chu Jinghe appeared out of nowhere, held in Mingxi's arms, crying and shouting, "Daddy! Don't go! Don't leave me and Daddy! Waaah..."

The father and son looked so pitiful that Li Yujing was furious. "Damn monsters, all they do is play the victim! Brother Chu, don't waver! Kill them, and we can go back to our world!"

"Waaaaah... Brother Chu, waaaaah..."

"Daddy! Don't leave us, waaaaah..."

Seeing Chu Yu standing there dumbfounded, Li Yujing cursed inwardly, "This is the strongest king? He's already regained his memories, yet he still feels sorry for monsters. He's a complete idiot."

If he didn't not know where the key was, he would have run away long ago. Sigh! Looks like we'll have to rely on him again.

Thinking this, Li Yujing gripped the still-dripping blood dagger in her hand, and walked towards Mingxi and Chu Jinghe with a cold smile. "You two disgusting monsters who are good at disguising yourselves, shut up... Ah! Uh..."

Li Yujing turned around in disbelief, looking at the person who had pierced his heart. "You! You actually did this for..."

"Thump! Snap! Puff puff!"

Adventurers who have undergone multiple physical evolutions will not die immediately after being pierced in the heart, but if their skull is shattered, they will be absolutely dead.

Looking at the headless corpse lying on the ground, and Chu Yu's calm yet slightly sorrowful expression, Mingxi laughed wildly and pounced on him, "Hahaha! I knew it, Brother Chu! I knew you would choose me, I knew it, hahahaha!"

"Dad! You chose us, that's great!" Chu Jinghe also rushed over, hugging Chu Yu's waist and laughing wildly.

Chu Yu pinched Mingxi's face with his blood-stained hands, then patted Chu Jinghe's head. "I will not forget what I said. I will always be with you, father and son."

"Brother Chu~ I love you so much!"

"Daddy! I love you so much too!"

Holding his lover and son in his arms, Chu Yu sighed softly. To leave this world, he needed a key.

To get the key, he had to kill Mingxi. He thought he could do it, but he couldn't.

What is a "monster"? In the eyes of the inhabitants of this world, these outsiders are the monsters.

Mingxi loves him and doesn't want him to leave. Mingxi is not wrong. He loves Mingxi and is willing to stay for her sake. He is not wrong either.

From now on, the three of them will live happily in this world forever.
