Chapter 1

"Village Instance"

After gradually regaining consciousness, Qing Xi found himself in a strange place.

It was a shabby, small bedroom.

The lime on the walls had not only peeled off but also revealed the bumpy surface underneath.

In front of Qing Xi was a small table missing one of its legs, and he was currently sitting on a large wooden bed.

Only when he lowered his head slightly did he notice that he was wearing a bright red wedding robe. However, the fabric was of very poor quality.

This made the delicate-skinned boy feel a bit uncomfortable wearing it.

He frowned and reached out, intending to take it off.

Just then, 202, who had rushed over to meet this new player, was immediately captivated by the little beauty bathed in orange firelight.

Soft black hair, a snow-white face with exquisite and striking features, and the tear mole beneath the corner of his right eye only added a unique touch of beauty.

Such a scene made 202, ranked number one among all robots, experience for the first time the “heat” humans always spoke about.

Usually cold and emotionless toward all other players, 202’s tone softened for the first time in its life.

【Player, hello. I am the system assigned to you by the main god. You can call me 202.】

【Also, this is your first mini-instance in the Infinite Game. Please first accept the storyline and tasks.】

The sudden strange voice made Qing Xi feel a bit guarded. But before he could do anything, a flood of text automatically appeared in his mind.

【Lotus Village.

This is a remote and rather backward mountain village.

Because of this, there aren’t many families living here, and most are elderly.

The original body was a strange person, neither male nor female. Because of this, he replaced his beloved older sister and married a sickly man who was on the brink of death.】

【Main Task: Survive until the end of the instance. (Note: The instance lasts seven days.)】

【Side Task: Uncover the secrets hidden in this village.】

After receiving the full storyline, Qing Xi felt a deep sense of unease.

He didn’t know why, after dying, his timid self would be thrown into such a terrifying little world. But if he wanted a chance to survive, then he needed to find a strong ally.

Maybe his sickly husband could be a good choice.

Creak…

At that moment, the wooden door was pushed open from the outside, making an unpleasant screeching sound.

Hearing it, Qing Xi quickly grabbed the red veil nearby and draped it over his head.

With his vision blocked, he couldn’t see anything and could only hear footsteps approaching, growing nearer and nearer, until a pair of deep blue cloth shoes appeared in front of him.

Cough cough…

The man suddenly coughed.

Qing Xi instinctively clenched his hands. But remembering he needed this man’s protection, he asked, “Are you alright?”

“Mm.”

“Sorry to make you worry.”

The man’s voice was gentle, so maybe he would be easy to get along with.

As Qing Xi was thinking this, the veil on his head was suddenly lifted.

His first reaction was to look up.

A refined and handsome face appeared before him. The only flaw was the man's overly pale complexion, giving off a severely sickly appearance.

It seemed his illness was truly serious.

The moment the man laid eyes on Qing Xi’s face, his pupils contracted.

At that moment, the boy’s figure was all he could see.

The black-haired little beauty under the warm lamplight was simply too pleasing to the eye.

Feeling the man’s intense stare, Qing Xi naturally noticed it. His cheeks flushed, and he awkwardly asked, “Why are you staring at me like that? Is there something on my face?”

“No, I was just stunned… I didn’t expect my little wife to be this beautiful.”

Qing Xi wasn’t unfamiliar with compliments like that. After all, he’d heard such words from many people since he was young.

But coming from this man, for some reason, it made him feel a faint sense of shyness. Was it because this man was now his husband?

“You’re very good-looking too,” Qing Xi replied with a smile.

The man was amused by his response and sat down beside him.

As he came closer, Qing Xi caught a whiff of a faint herbal scent—like traditional medicinal herbs.

Thinking of his husband’s sickly condition, Qing Xi felt a bit more sympathetic toward him.

“What’s wrong?” the man asked.

“N-nothing.”

“Can we go to sleep now?” Qing Xi asked.

Being suddenly pulled into this instance world, and now finally relaxing, Qing Xi felt exhausted.

The man glanced at the sleepy boy and chuckled lightly. “Yes, but we haven’t had our nuptial wine yet.”

Saying this, he got up and brought over two small red cups.

They looked just like the ones Qing Xi had seen on TV.

He was only focused on going to sleep now, so he quickly picked up the cup and drank it.

The slightly bitter taste made the boy frown—he disliked such flavors—but he forced himself to finish it.

“Sleep now.”

The man’s voice grew low and deep beside his ear.

Qing Xi wanted to say something else, but his consciousness slowly faded into a blur.

In the next second, his whole body fell backward.

The cup in his hand also slipped to the ground along with its owner's collapse.

The man looked at the unconscious youth on the bed, his gaze darkening slightly.

The fair-skinned, beautiful youth lay on a red quilt embroidered with mandarin ducks—two contrasting colors forming a striking picture.

The man leaned in slightly, his fingers slowly touching Qing Xi’s soft cheek, then trailing downward.

Soon, the red wedding robe Qing Xi wore was discarded onto the floor... followed by the matching embroidered shoes.

【Ding—The livestream room has automatically started. Viewers, please be mindful of your comments, or they will be blocked.】

【Holy crap, I just entered and saw that??? What a stunning little beauty!! That’s my wife now, slurp slurp.】

【And this little beauty is actually a newbie! And look at the identity he drew—total cannon fodder among cannon fodder.】

After seeing that comment, the viewers who had been admiring the beauty finally recalled which instance this was.

"Rural Anomalies"

Don’t be fooled by the simple name—its difficulty level is B+.

In the infinite world, all instances are ranked by letters: S, A, B, C, D, E, F, with each level having a "+" variant.

So this instance being B+ means it’s even harder than a normal B-level one.

【Nooo, I finally got a gorgeous wife, and now he’s gonna die this fast?】

No one could give a reassuring answer—because anyone who drew this “cannon fodder bride” role before died horribly.

Just then, the little beauty everyone was worried about slowly opened his eyes.

Qing Xi, upon waking, met the deep, emotionless gaze of the man.

But instead of fear, the youth’s pretty face bloomed with a sweet and obedient smile. “Sorry, I just... fell asleep like that.”

Then, seeing that he was only left with his inner white clothes, he reached out toward the man. “And thank you for helping me take off my robe.”

“Also, can you help me up? I’m feeling a little weak.”

The original owner of this body had been knocked out and substituted into this wedding with an empty stomach, which made Qing Xi feel very hungry now.

【We’re doomed. This sickly husband has a notoriously bad temper. Last time, a somewhat decent-looking player tried seducing him and got hacked to death with an axe on day one.】

【Help, I don’t even have the heart to keep watching.】

【My beautiful wife, sob sob.】

But the next moment shocked everyone watching.

Because the man actually held Qing Xi’s hand—and even crouched down to help him put his shoes back on.

Watching the small feet hidden under his socks being slipped into the red embroidered shoes, the man stood up and said calmly, “I’ll go to the kitchen and get you something to eat. Stay in the room and don’t wander around.”

“Mm-hmm, okay.”

“Thank you, hubby.”

The little beauty obediently responded, the way he said "hubby" so sweet it practically dripped sugar.

The man’s tall figure stiffened slightly, but he said nothing.

Still, if one looked closely, he was walking away much faster than when he had entered.

【I can’t believe it—my little beauty actually survived, and the husband even went to fetch food himself!】

【This is the power of looks!! All those past players who died on day one are probably crying in their graves.】

【Tsk, I knew it—no one can resist my wife! Even a fierce NPC husband isn’t immune!】

Once the man left and closed the door, the room fell into silence again.

Qing Xi propped his chin in his hands and began recalling everything that had happened.

After he “fainted,” the man must’ve stood there observing him for quite a while, and then—mysteriously—helped him take off his robe.

At the time, the boy’s heart had been pounding, but he had no choice but to keep “sleeping.”

Upon waking, he had carefully tested the waters to approach the man, and luckily, it turned out safe.

That also helped Qing Xi confirm how he would interact with this man in the coming days.

——

“Mmm, it smells so good—it must taste amazing too.”

Qing Xi smiled with crescent-shaped eyes as he picked up the golden-fried egg with chopsticks and held it up to the man’s lips. “Our chef worked hard, so you should try it first.”

The man initially wanted to refuse, but when he met the boy’s smiling, crescent-shaped eyes, he inexplicably agreed.

His throat, unused to food, instantly felt uncomfortable—but he still swallowed the bite of egg.

Then he looked at Qing Xi, who now had puffed cheeks as he chewed, looking like a little bunny.

So cute... and really makes you want to bully him...

Qing Xi had no idea what his husband was thinking. After finishing the delicious bowl of noodles, he cutely asked the man to rub his tummy.

When the man’s large hand touched the warm skin, his gaze darkened slightly—but he didn’t pull away.

As for the livestream viewers, if they didn’t already know the background of this instance, they’d truly think they were watching a sweet romance world.

The contrast with the previous tone was drastic.

【Tsk tsk, my wife is so good at this. I feel like that husband is already completely under his control.】

【+1, wife really knows how to tame a dog.】

【But don’t celebrate too soon. What if that husband suddenly turns violent on the newbie?】

【Yeah, just a pretty face. I doubt he’ll survive long. Everything so far could be a coincidence.】

Now that his hunger was dealt with, Qing Xi genuinely felt sleepy.

He yawned, then sweetly asked the man to carry him for washing up.

And the man, once again, didn’t refuse. He went to the kitchen to fetch warm water and brought back a soft, clean cloth.

His considerate care only made the youth more determined to cling tightly to this golden thigh.

So when both of them were done and lying on the big bed, Qing Xi immediately rolled into the man’s arms and even leaned over to kiss his pale lips.

“Goodnight, hubby.”

The man was stunned by the sudden gesture.

It took him a while to respond in a low voice.

“Goodnight.”

And the viewers in the livestream, having gone from constant shock to full acceptance, were now getting used to this “sweet romance” plotline.

That same night, a hot new thread appeared on the biggest forum in the infinite world:

#Shocking! The scary NPC husband in that rural instance is actually a total love-struck fool!#
