Help! My Alluring Neighbor Isn't Human - Chapter 7

“Bai-Jie, when did you…” I swallowed hard, feeling her wrap around me like a water snake.

Despite the frightening dream and the possibility that Bai Xiaotian could be a ghost, her allure was irresistible. No man could withstand her seductive charm.

Moreover, it was broad daylight, with sunlight streaming into the hotel room, which eased my fears considerably.

“Honey!” Bai Xiaotian giggled and suddenly planted a kiss on my cheek.

“What did you call me?” I was taken aback, her voice was so soothing.

“Honey, don’t you like it when I call you that? How’s your stamina? Recovered yet?” Bai Xiaotian teased, sliding over me playfully.

At that moment, I couldn’t resist any longer and let go of all hesitation.

By the time we finished, it was already noon. Bai Xiaotian insisted on treating me to a lavish meal, and I didn’t hold back, enjoying a sumptuous seafood feast.

Bai Xiaotian was delighted, blooming like a peony, radiating beauty and energy. She insisted on exploring the county town in the afternoon. Despite being situated at the border of two realms, this small county town was a genuine ancient city.

My legs were weak, and I had no energy to join her, but she didn’t push me.

After eating, I returned to the hotel, having barely slept the night before. With nothing to do in the afternoon, I decided to catch up on sleep.

But after lying down for just a few minutes, an inexplicable itch started on the inside of my thigh. I scratched it vigorously, only to find a rash of red bumps.

I figured it must be an allergic reaction to the hotel’s dirty sheets. Initially, I tried to endure it, but the itch intensified, and I couldn’t resist. So, I rushed out to find a pharmacy for medicine.

My skin is prone to allergies, and I’ve had these rashes before, so I knew exactly what to buy. I quickly purchased several ointments and returned to my room.

Eagerly, I stripped off my pants and began applying the ointment.

The relief was immediate, but as I continued, a chill ran down my spine. The areas I had scratched on my thighs turned grayish-brown and wrinkled, resembling snake skin.

How could an allergic reaction be this severe?

At that moment, anxiety gripped my heart. Having just been intimate with Bai Xiaotian, this must be related to her.

I had let my guard down too easily, forgetting everything in the heat of the moment.

What should I do now?

Just then, my phone buzzed with a new message.

It wasn’t from anyone else but Bai Xiaotian’s husband, the murderer.

At this moment, I didn’t see him as a murderer; he felt more like a savior.

“How’s it going? Have you escaped? If you don’t get out soon, she’s definitely going to make a move on you!”

I felt like crying without tears, and I couldn’t care less about saving face. I spilled everything that had happened.

Honestly, as I recounted the events, I felt quite embarrassed.

But he didn’t care about that at all. Instead, he questioned me, “Do you have something on your skin that looks like snake skin?”

My mind was struck like lightning, and I quickly confirmed, thinking that since he knew about this, there was a good chance I could be saved.

But his next words were like a bucket of ice water over my head.

“You’re done for. I told you to escape, but you wouldn’t listen. You even went and did that with her. This thing is called a ghost tattoo. Once it appears, you won’t live more than three days. Just wait to rot away and die!”
