“Yes, that’s right, this is a pure romance novel.”
It was the third day after Shen Jiahe broke up.
She hadn't yet emerged from her grief.
“Wuwuwu~ Lin Yuanzhou, that idiot, I’ll absolutely never get back together with him, wuwuwu~” Shen Jiahe sobbed uncontrollably while hugging her best friend.
Ye Wu patted her back, comforting her, “Alright, alright, just pretend he’s a pile of shit that a stray dog ate.”
“Wuwuwu, this past year, he ate my food, drank my drinks, and even used my money… *hiccup*, he didn’t even spend my birthday with me, and he even came up with such an outrageous excuse! Wuwuwu!” Shen Jiahe cried harder and harder.
Ye Wu had originally intended to comfort her properly, but she really couldn't hold it in.
She burst out laughing.
“Hahaha! I’m sorry, I’m so sorry, I really couldn’t help it, ‘Goddamn Bizarre Dungeon BOSS’ hahaha!!” Ye Wu covered her mouth, laughing and apologizing at the same time.
Shen Jiahe looked at her with reddened eyes, silently accusing her.
Ye Wu awkwardly stopped laughing and rubbed her nose, “Mainly, his excuse was just too outrageous. Could it be that he has someone else outside?”
Shen Jiahe felt even more wronged.
Over the past two years, Lin Yuanzhou would inexplicably disappear for a few days each month, and when he returned, he would be utterly exhausted.
Each time she asked, Lin Yuanzhou would stammer and say he was busy with work matters.
Several times, she wanted to get to the bottom of it, but Lin Yuanzhou would trick her directly into bed.
Later, in a daze, she would forget to ask.
Three days ago, it was her birthday, and the two of them had agreed to celebrate it at home. Shen Jiahe had prepared everything, just waiting for Lin Yuanzhou to return.
But even at past 11 PM, he hadn't returned, and the phone was still busy.
At 12:05 AM, Lin Yuanzhou finally called, apologizing and saying that he had been suddenly called away due to work and would make up her birthday when he returned.
The grievance of waiting for several hours made Shen Jiahe unable to resist questioning, “Work, work! Every time you disappear for several days, it’s because of work. Tell me, what kind of work requires you to disappear for several days without contact?!”
“Baby, I’m sorry, it’s not convenient to say. Wait for me to come back, okay?” His magnetic voice carried a hint of helplessness.
Shen Jiahe finally erupted, “Today is my birthday, and we agreed to celebrate. You suddenly tell me you can’t come because of work. Come on, tell me, what kind of work is so important, or else we’re breaking up.”
There was silence on the other end for a moment, then a soft sigh, and he explained, “Baby, I’m actually a BOSS in a horror dungeon. Recently, the number of people clearing dungeons has suddenly surged, and I have to work overtime. I can’t help it.”
Shen Jiahe was so angry she laughed.
He could have just said he had someone else, but he chose to use such an absurd excuse to fob her off.
Shen Jiahe cursed angrily, “You scumbag, coming up with such an outrageous excuse! Let’s break up!”
After speaking, she hung up the phone directly.
Because of this absurd breakup reason, Ye Wu had mocked her for several days.
“Wuwuwu~ If only I had known he was so unreliable, I wouldn’t have spent money on him, wuwuwu~” Shen Jiahe was extremely upset.
Over the past two years, she had given her money, effort, and youth, all wasted on this scumbag.
Ye Wu patted her back, “I told you already, you can’t pick up men from the roadside, they’re never any good.”
That’s right, Lin Yuanzhou was someone she had picked up from the roadside.
At that time, the night was dark and windy.
Shen Jiahe was returning from her part-time job when she saw something squirming near the garbage can in her residential area, which startled her.
She turned on her flashlight and saw Lin Yuanzhou covered in blood.
Shen Jiahe’s first reaction was to call the police, but Lin Yuanzhou grabbed her leg and weakly pleaded, “Don’t… call the police, don’t send me… to the hospital, please…”
Originally, she didn’t want to get involved in such troublesome matters.
But under the moonlight, she clearly saw Lin Yuanzhou’s face, which was so handsome it angered both gods and men.
Blinded by lust, Shen Jiahe carried him back to her small apartment.
After taking care of him for a while, the two naturally got together.
Lin Yuanzhou was handsome, could cook, did housework, and was incredibly considerate towards her—he was practically a perfect boyfriend!
So, she could tolerate his occasional disappearances.
But this time, Lin Yuanzhou used the excuse of being a Bizarre Dungeon BOSS working overtime to fob her off, and she really couldn't take it anymore!
Ye Wu patted her shoulder reassuringly, comforting her, “Alright, alright! Don’t be sad anymore, I’ll order eighteen young models for you!”
Shen Jiahe looked at Ye Wu with a bitter face, mercilessly exposing her, “But neither of us has money.”
Ye Wu: “…”
After seeing Ye Wu off.
Shen Jiahe leaned on the sofa, feeling an inexplicable sadness. Her first love in life, and she met such a scumbag!
Perhaps due to excessive sadness, her body quickly felt a wave of fatigue, her eyelids drooped, and she soon fell into a deep sleep.
When she woke up again, a cold mechanical voice sounded in her ear:
“Welcome, player, to the A-level horror dungeon—Island Prison.”
Shen Jiahe opened her eyes, looking at her surroundings with some confusion.
Before her eyes was a vast hall, and all around the hall were prisons.
?? No!!
Was she so hurt by the scumbag that she was even dreaming about this damn horror dungeon?
She reached out and pinched herself.
Hiss~ It hurt!
It wasn't a dream!!
“What the hell is this place! Why am I here?!” A loud voice pulled Shen Jiahe’s thoughts back. She looked around and saw about fifty people.
“Ah! Where is this! Wasn’t I sleeping at home?! Why am I here?!”
“What horror dungeon? Is this a script? A reality show? Stop it, I’m not participating, let me out!”
“…”
Noisy sounds continuously came from the crowd.
Before anyone could finish speaking, a group of Prison Guards suddenly rushed out from around them, holding batons and looking fierce.
“What are you yelling about, all of you shut up! Get back to your rooms quickly! Or I’ll twist your heads off!”
Some still thought it was a reality show and immediately became displeased, “Hey, let me out quickly, or I’ll call the police! This is illegal detention!!”
Shen Jiahe noticed that most of the people in the crowd immediately started walking towards the prisons upstairs after hearing the Prison Guards’ words.
She looked down at the number on her chest; the corresponding prison was on the third floor, so she also followed the large group upstairs to find her assigned prison.
She walked into the prison.
At this moment, Shen Jiahe’s mind was still a bit chaotic, and looking at the unfamiliar surroundings, her head throbbed.
Oh my god, is her brain finally working… Could Lin Yuanzhou’s words have been true?
Before she could figure it out, the prison door instantly locked, and then, sharp screams rang out.
Shen Jiahe leaned out to look, her pupils suddenly constricting.
She saw that the original Prison Guards’ heads instantly swelled several times, their faces splitting into four petals, and they directly bit off the heads of those who didn’t enter the prisons.
The noisy crowd instantly fell silent.
The Prison Guards quickly returned to their original appearance, but their lips were still stained with blood, looking extremely terrifying.
They licked their lips, seemingly still wanting more, and chuckled, “We told you to go back quickly, but you wouldn’t listen.”
The ground was covered in blood and gore, a shocking sight that caused several timid people to faint directly.
At this moment, it was so quiet you could almost hear a pin drop.
‘Tap’ ‘Tap-tap’
The sound of leather shoes rubbing against the floor.
A man in a black uniform walked out from the darkness.
The previously slouching Prison Guards immediately straightened their bodies and bowed to the newcomer, “Warden.”
Shen Jiahe craned her neck to look down, only able to see the Warden’s back.
That broad-shouldered, narrow-waisted back looked exactly like Lin Yuanzhou’s.
After all, she saw that lean back every day before they broke up.
