The Spirit-Talking Wife: Zombie King, You’re So Sweet

Ever since the jade pendant that had protected me since childhood broke, misfortune followed me everywhere.

I was thrown into an ancient tomb, where I met a silver-haired man. He would gaze at me with deep affection, say inexplicable things, and make strange gestures toward me.

The people around me began dying one after another in bizarre ways. I couldn’t resist getting drawn into it all, and I went through one strange encounter after another.

But… before I knew it, I had caught the attention of the Corpse King. Sometimes domineering, sometimes gentle, sometimes overbearing, sometimes considerate, sometimes obsessive, sometimes deeply in love…

I wanted to get away from him, but he only kept closing in on me.

One day, I found someone particularly annoying and let out a cold snort. “I want a divorce. Bring me the divorce papers.”

He ignored my anger and scooped me up with a grin, stroking my belly with one hand. “Honey, we already have a baby. Don’t be difficult.”

A strong arm circled around me. His body was as cold as ice that had lasted ten thousand years. Perhaps he sensed me shivering, because he pressed his lips against mine again. I didn’t see the red pearl pass from him into my body.

“Stay with me from now on. Never leave me, okay?”

His voice was cautious, even pleading.

I should have hated him, despised him, feared him. For some reason, hearing those words made me feel terribly sad.

A chill ran down my neck. He had placed a jade pendant around it, and I looked at him in confusion.

He explained, “Wear it. If you’re ever in danger, call for me, and I’ll appear right in front of you.”

As if he sensed my stiffness, he held me a little tighter and said above my head, “Don’t worry. I won’t hurt you. Don’t be afraid.”

He said, “We’re married. You’re my woman. You’re not allowed to look at other men. You can only belong to me!”

“I don’t understand what you’re saying.”

“Just remember that we were deeply in love. You told me you loved me, and I loved you too. We promised to be together for all eternity. If you’ve forgotten, I’ll remind you.”
