I became Shen Huaixu's accomplice.

I can't escape, and I dare not escape.

I obediently stay by his side, becoming a compliant puppet.

August 15th, the wedding date chosen by Shen Huaixu for me.

Under his gaze, I put on a bright red traditional Chinese wedding gown.

"Anning, you look so beautiful."

He spared no compliments, his eyes filled with admiration.

With the corner of my eye, I caught a glimpse of myself in the mirror—sunken cheeks, protruding teeth—like a monster.

His right hand was stained with a crimson color. I stared at him in a daze, "Shen Huaixu, have you killed again?"

He quickly shook his head, "This is just for the completion of our wedding ceremony."

Suddenly, Shen Huaixu placed his hand behind his back, wearing a pleasing smile on his face.

"After today, we will be together forever."

There was an emotion in his smile that I couldn't understand.

The clock on the wall pointed to eight fifty-eight.

Shen Huaixu hurriedly rushed over, grabbing my hand, and we walked towards the courtyard.

"Anning, time is running out!"

The courtyard was filled with offerings, including the eerie face I had seen before. In the center were two ceramic bowls, filled with a bright red liquid that looked like blood.

He picked up one of them and handed it to me.

"Anning, under the witness of the Red Moon God, we will hold our wedding and be together forever."

He took the initiative to drink the other bowl, and the bright red liquid dripped from the corner of his lips.

It was a bit nauseating.

"Anning, why aren't you drinking?!"

"The Red Moon God is about to arrive."

I looked up at the sky; the moon on the fifteenth was truly round.

This game is also time to end.

"Shen Huaixu, we won't have a future."

He stood there in shock, his eyes filled with confusion.

I dropped the bowl in my hand, and the bright red liquid spilled at his feet.

In his astonished gaze, I smiled.

"Because, I am the Red Moon God."
