Li Zuhao’s words made the Spoon freeze in midair, and the atmosphere instantly became awkward.
“I gouged out your Tianyan, and you’re still saying things like that? Don’t you have any other complaints you want to voice?”
Even the mysterious kidnapper, Mysterious Mommy, suspected she’d misheard, feeling a sudden wave of confusion.
“I don’t resent anyone,”
Li Zuhao replied.
Bullshit!
I just reincarnated here, what’s there to hate?
The original owner of this body had died from pain just now—couldn’t handle a bit of suffering, a useless, spoiled brat.
“Ah Zu, you…”
Mysterious Mommy—
Time didn’t know how to respond.
“You’ve already taken my Tianyan Eye, can’t you at least grant me this request? Use your feet!”
Li Zuhao snorted coldly.
“Yes, yes, yes.”
Mysterious Mommy—
Time was intimidated by Li Zuhao’s presence and actually did as he said.
She hurriedly set down the bowl of homemade White Congee, then took off her Black Stockings.
Using her toes, she picked up the Spoon with great difficulty, performing an acrobatic feat just to bring the Spoon to Li Zuhao’s mouth.
“Ah Zu, I’m ready. Please have a taste.”
Mysterious Mommy’s voice grew shy, her tone trembling a little.
But Li Zuhao didn’t react, as if he hadn’t heard.
Just as she was starting to get confused, and her foot was beginning to cramp—
“Slurp, slurp, slurp~”
He suddenly stretched out his head, shooting out a freakishly long tongue like a spirit snake!
What Spoon?
What White Congee?
All sent flying with a flick of his tongue—the real target wasn’t the food at all.
In a flash, he’d already devoured all five of her little icy snow treats!
“Ah!”
Mysterious Mommy suddenly let out a startled cry.
It was both an insult and a reward, a swirl of complicated feelings.
She hadn’t anticipated this guy’s move at all—in that instant, she was utterly defeated.
Her face flushed bright red, flustered and at a loss, transformed from Hunter to Prey, with no strength left to continue feeding him, let alone the energy to torment him further.
She’d clearly taken everything from him!
Why could he remain so calm?
This game was a bit too twisted—even Mysterious Mommy was scared off and fled.
“Where is she?”
Li Zuhao realized the ropes binding his wrists had loosened, and he pulled off the Eye Mask.
But there was no one before him; on the floor were only a lovingly cooked bowl of White Congee and a fragrant Black Stockings.
His face full of confusion, he searched every corner of the house but found no trace of her.
Li Zuhao had just received all the Memory and information of this new body and knew this was his own home.
He’d just been attacked at his front door, brought inside for “training,” and finally broke free with his astonishing wit.
But he couldn’t imagine how someone could untie him and vanish without a sound, leaving no trace at all.
“What’s going on? Is this…the power of the Ghost King?”
Li Zuhao stood at the door, peeking through the peephole—no one in the corridor outside.
Wardrobe, under the bed—no one.
The more he thought about it, the more terrifying it seemed.
Looking down at his naked body, this didn’t feel like a dream.
He picked up the White Congee and half a Black Stockings, sat at the dining table in the small hall, and began to enjoy his spoils.
“Whew~”
Li Zuhao pressed the Black Stockings to his face, took a deep breath—what a strong scent, so satisfying.
But his stomach was a bit hungry, so he decided to eat some congee first.
“Congratulations on passing the first Test. Didn’t expect you to have some skill after all.”
At that moment, the elegant lady Heiwuchang, dressed in a high-slit Cheongsam, appeared out of thin air in the seat across from him.
“You actually survived. Looks like we picked the right person.”
The familiar Paper Fan half-covered her face, but her tone was much gentler now.
“Who was that woman?”
Li Zuhao asked while eating his congee.
“Do you know what a [Yandere] is?”
Heiwuchang asked in return.
“No idea.”
Li Zuhao shook his head.
He’d never heard such a novel term before.
“Well, it’s pretty abstract. I’m not sure how to explain it concretely right now. Basically, it refers to those obsessive women who go mad for love and do extreme things—for example, gouging out your eye and then tying you up to feed you. But that’s not the point. Compared to disgusting ordinary criminals, the main thing is that they’re usually breathtakingly beautiful.”
Heiwuchang explained.
“Got it,”
Li Zuhao replied.
“But they’re not ordinary yandere girls—they are the Reincarnation of the Ghost King, possessing terrifying power and strong willpower, easily able to tear ordinary people apart. These are all the Rules you need to know. Remember, you can’t use violence—you have to rely on your wits.”
Heiwuchang continued.
“Them? Don’t tell me there’s more than one?”
Li Zuhao frowned.
“Didn’t I say there are one hundred and eight?” said Heiwuchang.
“So it’s not a one-by-one conquest? Don’t tell me they all come at once?”
Li Zuhao exclaimed.
“They won’t all come at once, but it won’t be just one, either. You’ll need to find and confirm your targets yourself. We don’t know who the Reincarnation of the Ghost King is, and we can’t tell you. That’s the Rule.”
Heiwuchang’s tone was deliberately mysterious.
“But I can guarantee you’re safe for now. There’s no Reincarnation of the Ghost King lurking nearby.”
“They can sense my presence. The fact that I can appear here and talk with you means there’s no Reincarnation of the Ghost King lurking nearby…”
But before she finished, Heiwuchang suddenly vanished without warning.
“Ding dong!”
The next moment, his doorbell rang.
Li Zuhao fell silent.
He felt his heart skip a beat, his hand holding the Spoon frozen in midair, as he turned to look at the entrance.
“Ding dong~ ding dong~ ding dong~”
The bell kept ringing after several seconds.
Li Zuhao could only put down the Spoon.
The visitor seemed to know someone was inside, determined to drag him out.
He went to the door and pressed his eye to the peephole.
He saw a rustic-looking girl in a white dress with tan skin standing outside, holding a cake and wearing a gentle smile.
She radiated a completely natural vibe, like a Country Girl who’d just arrived in the big city. Her skin was just so healthy.
Li Zuhao opened the door, pulling it open a crack, and cautiously asked,
“Who are you?”
“Hello, I just moved in next door. My name is Miya. I came over specially to greet my Neighbor. Please take care of me from now on.”
Miya smiled.
“Got it, nice to meet you.”
Li Zuhao replied perfunctorily, then prepared to close the door.
But a strong, tanned little hand reached in and grabbed the door.
Li Zuhao applied a bit of force, but the door didn’t budge an inch.
Is my strength really this weak?
Can’t even beat a Country Girl?
“Neighbor, please accept my gift.”
Miya pried the door open with one hand and held out the cake with the other, forcing her way in.
But she soon regretted it…
Because Li Zuhao wasn’t wearing any clothes, with only a medical eye patch on his face.
His face was bare, and his hot dog was still swinging in the air.
“Ah!”
The Country Girl Miya had never seen such a shocking sight, and screamed on the spot.
She covered her blushing face with both hands, dropped the cake, and spun around, back facing Li Zuhao, her reaction adorably innocent.
