Chu Xiaoxuan raised her head and saw a face as gentle as jade.
He had an upright posture and an extraordinary temperament. Apart from his somewhat cold body, Chu Xiaoxuan could not find any fault with him for a moment.
The man gently hugged Chu Xiaoxuan, his eyes full of love and concern.
He whispered to Chu Xiaoxuan:
"What's wrong? Did you have a nightmare?"
The man's voice had a kind of magic that gradually calmed Chu Xiaoxuan's originally panicked heart.
Chu Xiaoxuan raised her head slightly and said with a hint of grievance:
"Mother Wang looked so scary just now. She insisted that I put down the red thread in my hand."
Chu Xiaoxuan was led back to the dressing table by the man's cold fingers, and their appearance was reflected in the bronze mirror.
She was wearing a bright red wedding dress, and behind her stood a handsome groom with sharp eyebrows and bright eyes.
"Don't be afraid, my lady. I have already dealt with those ignorant servants."
The man's voice was as gentle as jade, and his fingertips gently combed her hair.
Chu Xiaoxuan nodded blankly, and all the fear in her heart disappeared.
She secretly glanced at the man's profile in the mirror, and her heartbeat began to quicken.
Isn't such a gentle and handsome husband exactly what she dreams of?
She always felt something was wrong:
"But...Mother Wang..."
"Shhh."
The man placed his slender fingers on her lips and leaned over to her ear.
"Forget about the unpleasant things, okay?"
Chu Xiaoxuan's eyes gradually began to blur...
Yes, why should she be afraid?
Today is her big day.
The man covered her hand, and the biting coldness passed through her wrist.
"Can I keep this dirty stuff for you?"
The man coaxed Chu Xiaoxuan, prying open her clenched fingers one by one.
Just when the red thread was about to leave her hand, the bronze mirror suddenly cracked!
"ah!"
Chu Xiaoxuan pulled her hand back abruptly, and the red line left a bloody mark on her palm.
There were many more things in her mind, and memories came flooding back.
"My wife?"
The man's eyes instantly turned cold, and his originally gentle face became ferocious.
Chu Xiaoxuan was trembling all over, but she held the red thread in her hand even tighter.
She stepped back, staying away from the man.
"I'm not Miss Li, and I don't even know you! Where is this place? Where is Sister Jiang?"
The man's handsome face began to melt, revealing the rotten flesh inside, with worms wriggling.
"Bitch!"
He grabbed Chu Xiaoxuan's neck.
"If you don't want dignity, then go die..."
Chu Xiaoxuan was almost unable to breathe. In a trance, she saw the red line bursting out with strong golden light.
The man screamed and let go of her hand. She then repeated her old trick, grabbed the hairpin on the dressing table, and stabbed it into his heart.
"Puff..."
There was no blood, only black mist pouring out of the man's wound.
The man lowered his head in disbelief, his face becoming even more ferocious.
"How dare you?"
"I dare you! I, your aunt, will stab you every time I see you from now on!"
Chu Xiaoxuan's voice was no longer soft, but became firm. As she spoke, she pushed the golden hairpin in her hand a little further.
Damn it, how dare you use your beauty trap on your aunt!
"Pretend! Why don't you continue pretending to be such a handsome gentleman?"
The surrounding environment suddenly began to change.
The man's body began to grow at an alarming rate, and the wedding gown that had once fitted him turned into a tattered shroud.
His ten fingers grew long, pitch-black nails, as sharp as blades, and he exuded a disgusting odor.
The man roared at Chu Xiaoxuan viciously:
"Then you will stay here with me forever!"
Chu Xiaoxuan was upset and secretly cursed herself for being too arrogant.
I shouldn't have angered this ghost just now. I don't know where the magic weapon on me has disappeared.
How can I fight this damn thing?
She looked down at the red thread given by Sister Jiang, not knowing how to use it.
Suddenly, the red line flew up on its own as if it had become possessed.
The red thread wrapped around the evil ghost's neck, and the ghost let out a shrill scream. It struggled desperately, waving its hands around, but it was completely powerless to do anything about it.
The red string tightened, and the ghost's figure gradually became illusory under the restraint of the red string...
Just when the evil ghost was about to be destroyed by the red line, Jiang Muyao suddenly appeared.
The red thread flew back into Chu Xiaoxuan's hand with a whoosh.
Chu Xiaoxuan's palm was burned by the red line and it hurt. She frowned thoughtfully and looked at Jiang Muyao who suddenly appeared in front of her.
If the Sister Jiang in front of him was real, how could the red line fly back to protect him?
Thinking of this, she looked up at Jiang Muyao in front of her.
Jiang Muyao was smiling gently and extending her hand towards her.
"Xiaoxuan, come here. The red string is useless now. Give it to me first."
The red thread on Chu Xiaoxuan's wrist suddenly tightened and became hot. Chu Xiaoxuan patted it soothingly.
Chu Xiaoxuan knew that this Sister Jiang was not real because Sister Jiang never smiled like that.
Deliberately curved eyes and flattering tone of voice.
"OK."
"But, Sister Jiang, could you please recite the spell you taught me on the plane first?"
Chu Xiaoxuan asked with a sweet smile, but took a step back.
The smile on the fake Jiang Muyao's face froze...
How could she know any spell? This damn girl, she was just a clone, her real body was still hiding from Jiang Muyao...
He appeared here just to hold Chu Xiaoxuan hostage and threaten Jiang Muyao.
