Rules of the Unusual: My Yandere Husband Pretends to Be Innocent Online
Chapter 22 Hidden Rules
"Sister, I don't want to run away."
The boy's voice was soft, but the cynical tone was gone.
"Because I always felt like you were hiding something from me. Otherwise, how did you know the well would be different at night?"
Xia Xiaoqin's words were incoherent.
Seeing the boy risking his life instead of running away, and instead walking forward, she quickly explained, "Last night, I heard paper figures say that the wives the Lu family used for 'lucky marriages' were all thrown into wells... but I didn't know they would actually climb out! Let's go..."
In the darkness, Xia Xiaoqin could see nothing, and she dared not make any rash moves.
She was afraid that if she ran first, she would become the target.
But Qin Bufei pulled her along and took a few more steps forward.
"Sister, she's climbed out."
The moment he finished speaking, the flame on Qin Bufei's lighter flickered.
At the edge of the well, the pale knuckles suddenly tightened, and then a head rose from the well opening.
Her head was covered in wet black hair, which clung to her head like seaweed, and through the gaps in her hair, a face that was so white it looked almost blue could be vaguely seen.
"It's a woman, sister, she looks fierce."
"It's really dangerous right now, sister. Have you thought about telling me what you haven't told me before? I have a feeling there's something you're not telling me."
Qin Bufei tilted his head slightly, carefully examining the woman who had climbed out of the well.
Unlike the pale-headed body, the woman before him was dressed in a blood-red wedding gown, the fabric soaked with well water, heavy and clinging to her body.
Her movements were very slow; she moved her body up piece by piece, as if all her joints had been soaked in water and were no longer flexible.
"elder sister?"
"What exactly do you want to know?! I've told you everything I know!"
Xia Xiaoqin could no longer hold back her emotions, and the rooster in her arms also flapped its wings violently, reminding them to escape quickly.
But Qin Bufei shook his head seriously, speaking slowly and deliberately.
"Sister, there's something you haven't told me. You don't seem to realize it yourself. You're hiding something."
"Let me remind you, the dress your man is wearing is the wedding gown of the woman who crawled out of the well. So I'm really curious, are you deliberately hiding something from me? Otherwise, why would Liu Ruyan say your man isn't human for no reason?"
Xia Xiaoqin took a deep breath, forcing herself to calm down.
She had to stay calm.
"I'm sorry, there are things I haven't told you, but since you asked, I'll tell you everything, but not now... If you don't run away, I'll run away myself."
The moment he finished speaking, Qin Bufei suddenly grabbed Xia Xiaoqin's wrist.
The boy smiled and looked up, his beautiful peach blossom eyes reflecting the girl's pale face.
"Sister, there's no time like the present, tell me now! I'm really afraid of being lied to; I've been lied to so many times. So if you don't tell me, you definitely won't be able to escape!"
The rooster crowed loudly, its crow like a cannonball, and hurtled towards Qin Bufei's face.
But Qin Bufei caught it in a flash.
"Coo coo coo!"
The rooster was completely terrified.
Not far away, the woman climbed out of the well.
She looked up.
Those eyes had no pupils; the entire eyeball was a cloudy grayish-white, as if it had been soaking in water for too long and had rotted away.
"Coo coo! Coo coo!!!"
The rooster was so frightened that it nearly fainted.
"What did you do to my rooster?!"
Xia Xiaoqin was panicked and didn't know what had happened.
But Qin Bufei still didn't give up.
At this moment, Xia Xiaoqin finally understood that the other party was using her life to force a confession from her!
"You're insane! I'll tell you... I'll tell you everything."
"My love, he really wasn't human last night. It was like he was controlled by something, becoming a bride to get married. And I was the one who got the clue after successfully playing a game with him. I've told you everything!!!"
Qin Bufei released his grip.
The next second, the woman in the blood-red wedding dress climbed down from the edge of the well.
She landed without making a sound, standing barefoot on the blue brick floor, water dripping from her skirt and forming a small dark red puddle at her feet.
"My husband..."
The woman opened her mouth, her head tilted to one side at an abnormal angle, as if her neck had been broken, and made a call.
An overwhelming chill and resentment enveloped Xia Xiaoqin's entire body.
For some reason, she was so frightened that she couldn't move her whole body.
The woman reached out to Qin Bufei and called out again in a hoarse voice.
"My husband..."
Qin Bufei suddenly raised his foot and kicked out.
"Sorry, Auntie, I'm not of legal marriage age yet, no thanks~"
Swah——
The woman's wet body passed straight through Qin Bufei's long kick and continued forward, leaving a dark red trail of water.
"Qin Bufei!"
In the pitch black, Xia Xiaoqin called out to the boy.
She had no idea what had happened; she only heard Qin Bufei make a teasing remark before he went silent.
"My husband..."
But just then, a soft call came from beside my ear.
Before Xia Xiaoqin could react, she felt a chill run through her body, as if a cold wind had pierced through her and frozen her very bones.
"Well,"
Shivering all over, Xia Xiaoqin's teeth chattered from the cold.
Not far away, the call of "husband" rang out again, fading into the distance, as if the woman who had climbed out of the well had gone far away.
Just then, something touched her ankle.
"Sister, I'm here."
Qin Bufei, lying on the ground, spoke softly.
"I'm frozen stiff."
Xia Xiaoqin, shivering from the cold, crouched down following the sound and touched Qin Bufei's sleeve.
At this moment, a thin layer of frost had formed on the fabric of the boy's school uniform, making the clothes feel stiff to the touch, as if they had just been taken out of a freezer.
"Qin Bufei, are you alright? What did you just do? That woman... she's gone far away now, right?"
"And my rooster! Where is it?"
Seeing Xia Xiaoqin lower her voice, looking scared and cautious, Qin Bufei lay on the ground, his frozen purple lips trembling twice before he managed to squeeze out a complete sentence.
"Sister, relax. I just kicked that woman once. It's nothing. She's already gone far away, heading towards the place where we first met."
It's fine?
He's not dead, is he?
Xia Xiaoqin finally lost her temper and slammed her knee into Qin Bufei's chest. Then she took out the wood-chopping knife that was tied to her clothes and held it to the boy's neck.
"Qin Bufei! Are you trying to kill me? First you grabbed me and wouldn't let go, then you deliberately provoked that female ghost. What exactly do you want? Do you wish we were all dead?"
But the boy wasn't nervous at all, and nonchalantly tapped Xia Xiaoqin's neck.
"Sister, you're such a pervert!"
"I'm still a child, I can't!"
Even though she couldn't see anything, Xia Xiaoqin couldn't resist the urge to roll her eyes.
But the next second, the boy deliberately tapped her neck, indicating that she should touch it.
Xia Xiaoqin belatedly raised her hand and realized that something was wrong with her neck.
—On her neck, it looked like she had an allergic reaction; many uneven, scratch-like marks had appeared.
These traces seem to form a line of text.
"Sister, I planned this. I got two things from that kick just now."
"First, that woman was a spirit; you can't touch her with ordinary physical means. Second, her rules are already in our hands. If you don't believe me, touch my leg."
Xia Xiaoqin hesitated for a second, but still reached out her hand.
The moment her fingers touched Qin Bufei's calf, she froze.
On the surface of Qin Bufei's right leg, a line of raised characters appeared, as if something had forcibly pulled them out from under the skin, and they felt slightly hot to the touch.
[Lu Family Rules 5/1]
The poor wretch who jumped into the well has arrived. When you encounter her, please unleash your malice upon her.
