After finishing the call, the Lady did not smash the entire dressing table as she had in the original story. Instead, she hummed a little tune and leisurely applied her lipstick.

If An Xinghe had gotten a little closer, he would have heard her humming:

"Don't make me look around anymore, don't make me guess every day, who is my Groom? I am your Groom..."

About half an hour later, the Lady carefully shaped her brows and fixed her hair. Only after confirming that her makeup was flawless did she rise in satisfaction and leave the room.

An Xinghe had nearly run out of patience waiting outside. He muttered:

"Does even a boss need at least half an hour to put on makeup now?"

He smashed the window and vaulted into the dressing room, reaching up to take a key from the wall.

This was an essential item for clearing the level later. Otherwise, An Xinghe would never have had the patience to wait outside for half an hour!

The instant he took the key, the side door of the dressing room opened, and the Lady entered with her head lowered.

She spotted An Xinghe at once. Possessiveness rippled through her eyes, and a wild, seductive smile curled across her lips.

"Oh~ little cutie, I was looking for you. I never expected you to deliver yourself right to me."

"Then I'll have to give you a proper welcome~"

An Xinghe faced the Lady without the slightest panic.

Because this scene had happened in the original game too, and the way to escape was right beneath his feet!

The floor beneath him was hollow! It led directly to the underground area of the Castle! Ethan had escaped the Lady through this very route!

An Xinghe took out Scissors and stabbed them viciously into the floor.

A Fine Grade weapon truly lived up to its name! The thick wooden boards were like paper before Scissors, sliced open with a huge gash.

An Xinghe jumped straight down!

But before he had fallen very far, he felt a large hand seize his shoulder.

He looked up. Whose hand could it be but the Lady's?

The Lady licked her lips, her face filled with desire.

"Little cutie, you're quite lively. But you shouldn't waste your strength on this sort of thing. You'll have plenty of chances to burn energy later."

An Xinghe wanted nothing more than to grab the system by the neck and slam it into the wall!

The Lady had never made that move in the original story! She had let Ethan go!

Why had everything changed completely when it came to him?!

He stared at the Lady's face, thinking he might be turned into a human husk!

In every sense of the phrase!

Or maybe... I should just give in to the Lady and take a ride in the big truck?!

Livestream chat.

[Oh ho ho, the most exciting scene is about to begin!]

[Are you sure what comes next won't require paid access?]

[Is this really something I can watch without paying?!]

[Place your bets, place your bets! Guess how long An Xinghe can last!]

[What if An Xinghe turns around and conquers the Lady instead?!]

[Wake up, the person above! Even if that really happened, the horror game wouldn't broadcast it!]

The Lady hauled An Xinghe back onto the floor. Just as he was considering whether to give in to her or fight for his life with Scissors, Bella's voice came from outside the door.

"Mother! This is bad! Heisenberg and the others are here!"

The moment she heard Bella's words, the Lady flew into a rage.

"Those idiots! How dare they come to my Castle! And interrupt me at the most crucial moment! I'll skin them alive and eat them whole!"

The Lady carefully placed An Xinghe in the chair before the dressing table and tied a rope around him.

She stroked his cheek, unable to resist kissing it. Still reluctant to leave him, she said:

"Little cutie, wait here for me a moment. I'll go deal with something and be right back!"

"Don't you dare run around! Otherwise, Sister will punish you severely!"

The Lady stormed out. An Xinghe pulled out Scissors behind his back and was about to cut the rope when a gust of black wind swept through the room.

"Who's there?!" An Xinghe shouted.

A girl in a black dress appeared before him. "Brother An, it's me! Cassandra!"

You're a Boss!

Seeing that it was Cassandra, An Xinghe calmed down.

An Xinghe was probably the first player in the horror game to become calm rather than frightened upon seeing a mini-boss!

As Cassandra untied his ropes, she said:

"Brother An, Bella heard a huge noise coming from Mother's Dressing Room just now and guessed that Mother might have caught you."

"Bella deliberately lied that Heisenberg had come, just to lure Mother away so I could take the chance to come save you!"

"Brother An, are you alright? Mother didn't drink your blood, did she?"

An Xinghe rolled his eyes. What your mother wanted to suck probably wasn't my blood...

"I'm fine, Sister Cassandra." An Xinghe rose from the chair. "I'm going to continue looking for Rose's Head."

Cassandra blinked at him. "Brother An, can I come with you? I know a place in the Castle where a good weapon is hidden. I'll take you to get it, okay?!"

Livestream chat.

[The mini-bosses aren't satisfied with giving away people anymore. Now they're giving away weapons too!]

[If Ethan had gotten this kind of treatment back then, would he still have lost his hand?!]

[Missy Cassandra! Think this through! He's an intruder! Is it really okay for you to be this enthusiastic?]

[An Xinghe, you're definitely playing a dating simulator disguised as a horror game, right?!]

[I've watched countless horror game streams, but I've never seen one this absurd!]

[Sorry, being handsome really does let you do whatever you want!]

How could An Xinghe refuse when there was a weapon to be had!

Last time, the Slit-Mouthed Woman had given him a Fine Grade weapon, which had greatly boosted his strength!

Who knew what good thing he would get this time?!

Seeing An Xinghe agree, Cassandra was even happier than he was.

"Brother An, follow behind me. I'll take you there!"

Cassandra led An Xinghe out of the dressing room and began searching through the Castle.

By then, the Lady had already discovered that she had been deceived!

Heisenberg and the others had not come to the Castle at all!

Realizing she had been tricked, she did not even have time to punish Bella for lying to her before rushing back to the dressing room!

Sure enough, by the time she returned, An Xinghe had vanished, and the rope that had bound him lay on the floor.

The Lady's eyes instantly lost focus. Her gaze became like a collapsing black hole, as though it wanted to crush everything before it into dust!

Why did Bella deceive me?!

It must be because I've been too lax in disciplining them lately!

It seemed there really was a need to find them a stepfather to discipline them properly.

The Lady found an extremely legitimate reason for her idea.

She knew An Xinghe had come to the Castle to find Rose's Head. Before finding it, he would not leave easily.

And Rose's Head had always been in her possession.

That meant An Xinghe was still inside the Castle.

Thinking of this, the Lady's mood improved considerably.

But after being deceived by Bella once, she no longer trusted her daughters. She decided to personally search for An Xinghe's trail!

At the same time, she looked at her own body with some concern and thought:

If I have another daughter, will my figure go out of shape?

At this moment, An Xinghe and Cassandra were searching the Castle for the weapon.

Though An Xinghe had known Dimitrescu Castle was enormous when he played the game, only now that he was truly inside did he feel its grandeur!

Compared to it, an ordinary villa was nothing but an ant!

An Xinghe even regretted not giving in to the Lady earlier!

Then he would have become the master of this Castle!

Cassandra watched An Xinghe's profile from the side and unconsciously became lost in thought.

What did this man eat growing up? How could he be so good-looking!

With his beauty and her intelligence combined, their children would definitely be both clever and beautiful!

Mother would surely like grandchildren like that too!

Just as she was daydreaming, An Xinghe spoke.

"Cassandra, how much farther is the weapon you mentioned?"

Cassandra seemed to still be immersed in her own world. "How about naming the child Annie..."

"Cassandra!" An Xinghe raised his voice by two notches, finally pulling Cassandra back to reality.

She scratched her head sheepishly.

"Brother An, the weapon is in the room ahead. Let's hurry up."
