The next day.

The morning sun shines into the room through the curtains.

Shen An slowly opens his eyes.

He feels the warm and soft quilt under him and slowly gets up.

Suddenly, a strange feeling comes over him, as if he has forgotten something important.

Shen An subconsciously asks: "System?"

No response.

Shen An frowns and mutters to himself: "System? What is that?"

He shakes his head, thinking that he may have too much work pressure recently and his memory is a little confused.

He tries to recall his identity.

Shen An of the Shen family, his fiancée is Gu Rou of the Gu family.

Although it was a business marriage at first, they have fallen deeply in love with each other.

Thinking of the engagement ceremony not long ago, Shen An's mouth corners unconsciously rise.

Their wedding date has been set, and they will soon enter the palace of marriage.

"Gu Rou..."

Shen An whispers his lover's name softly, with a happy smile on his face.

He got up and prepared to wash up, looking forward to seeing his beloved fiancée again today.

Shen An was completely unaware.

His memory had been reshaped.

Those parts that should not exist were cleverly erased.

In this carefully woven "reality".

He was immersed in the joy of the upcoming wedding...

Shen An opened the closet, and a row of exquisite clothes were neatly hung inside.

Each piece was personally selected for him by Gu Rou, from casual wear to formal wear, all of which were made of top-quality fabrics and styles.

He couldn't help but smile, feeling the care of his lover.

After getting dressed, Shen An walked to the dining room.

A hearty breakfast was already on the table.

Freshly baked bread, fresh fruit salad, perfectly fried eggs, and a cup of steaming coffee.

These were all arranged in advance by Gu Rou, and even if she was not at home today because of work, she had to make sure Shen An ate well.

Shen An sat down and slowly tasted every piece of food.

He could feel Gu Rou's love in every bite.

Looking around, Shen An found that Gu Rou's shadow was everywhere in the room.

The bookshelf was filled with books she had chosen for him, their photos hung on the wall, and even the laptop he often used was a gift from Gu Rou.

Shen An felt a warm feeling in his heart.

Although Gu Rou was not around today, her presence seemed to be everywhere, permeating every corner of his life.

He picked up his phone and sent a message to Gu Rou.

"Good morning, dear. Thank you for everything you have prepared for me. Love you."

Putting down the phone, Shen An continued to enjoy his breakfast with a happy smile on his face.

He was completely immersed in this carefully arranged world and did not notice anything unusual...

Outside the house, an owl landed on the treetops.

After breakfast, Shen An drove to the company.

On the way, he recalled the bits and pieces of his acquaintance and love with Gu Rou, and the corners of his mouth rose unconsciously.

After arriving at the company, Shen An walked into the elevator.

He noticed that his colleagues in the elevator seemed a little different.

Their expressions seemed dull and their eyes were empty.

Shen An frowned, but quickly put the idea behind him.

"Maybe I'm overthinking it." He comforted himself.

Walking into the office, Shen An found the atmosphere a little weird.

The employees worked mechanically, without the usual conversation and laughter.

When he passed by, everyone looked up at him in unison, their eyes were so empty that it was disturbing.

"Good morning, everyone."

Shen An tried to break the silence.

"Good morning, Mr. Shen."

The employees answered in unison, their tone was so flat that it was not human.

Shen An felt a little uncomfortable, but he forced himself to concentrate on his work.

"Maybe it's just that the work pressure has been high recently, and everyone is a little tired."

He thought so.

However, as time went on, the strange feeling became stronger and stronger.

Everyone's movements were too uniform, as if they were carefully choreographed.

Shen An even felt that their faces seemed to become blurred at some moments.

"Am I too tired?"

Shen An rubbed his temples and decided to focus on the work at hand and stop thinking about these strange things.

However, the feeling of being monitored always lingered...

Shen An finished a day's work and drove home.

When he opened the door, he saw Gu Rou waiting in the hall with a gentle smile on her face.

"Welcome home, dear."

Gu Rou said softly.

The two got along as usual and exchanged a gentle hug.

They had dinner together and talked about their day.

After dinner, Gu Rou suddenly took out a beautiful gift box.

"Dear, I prepared it for you.A little surprise. "

Shen An opened the box, and inside was a high-quality black ribbon that felt soft and smooth.

"What is this...?" Shen An looked at Gu Rou with some confusion.

Gu Rou smiled and explained: "A blindfold. I think it suits you very well."

However, Gu Rou's next words made Shen An feel a little uneasy:

"Dear, I want to see you wear it."

Gu Rou's tone was still gentle, but there was a flash of emotion in her eyes that Shen An could not understand.

Shen An hesitated for a moment, but still nodded and agreed: "Okay...Okay. "

He picked up the ribbon and prepared to put it on.

Just then, he suddenly felt a strong sense of disobedience.

As if something important had been forgotten...

Shen An's hand suddenly stopped.

He felt an invisible force preventing him from wearing the ribbon.

Just then, a weak but urgent voice sounded in his mind: "Run!"

Shen An looked around in surprise, looking for the source of the sound, but there were only him and Gu Rou in the room.

Gu Rou noticed Shen An's abnormality, and a hint of gloom flashed in her eyes, but soon returned to a gentle expression: "What's wrong, Shen An?"

Shen An felt dizzy, and something in his memory seemed to be struggling to surface.

"I... I feel a little uncomfortable." Shen An forced a smile, trying to hide his inner uneasiness.

Gu Rou stepped forward and reached out to take the ribbon: "It's okay, dear. Let me help you put it on. "

Just when Gu Rou's hand was about to touch the ribbon, Shen An felt a strong sense of crisis.

He instinctively took a step back and tightly grasped the ribbon: "No... No need"

Gu Rou's expression instantly became gloomy, but soon returned to normal: "Okay, if you don't want to. "

She said softly, with a tone of coldness that Shen An had never heard before.

At night.

Shen An lay in bed, but could not fall asleep.

What happened tonight made him feel uneasy. The mysterious voice and Gu Rou's abnormal behavior were lingering in his mind.

Suddenly, a chill came.

The window was covered with scarlet tentacles, wriggling as if they were alive.

Shen An sat up and rubbed his eyes to confirm whether he was dreaming.

However, when he looked at the window again, the tentacles had disappeared without a trace.

He got out of bed and walked to the window, carefully checking every corner, but could not find any abnormal signs.

Outside the window was still a calm night, as if everything just now was just his imagination.

Shen An took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down.

But deep in his heart, a voice kept reminding him: Something is wrong here.
