Joyful Attire: Phantom Bride Nightmare
墨書 Inktalez
I lay in bed wearing my pajamas, staring at the wardrobe.
Hanging on it was a Wedding Dress.
Originally, this Wedding Dress had been stored inside the wardrobe, but after filming a transformation video yesterday, I took it out and hung it up, fearing it might get wrinkled.
It was midnight.
The warm orange light illuminated the Wedding Dress.
The color was particularly vibrant.
Even the golden feathers on the phoenix design shimmered.
As I gazed at the lifelike phoenix, I felt something was off.
The phoenix had its eyes closed.
I remembered that traditionally, the phoenix on our Wedding Dresses always had its eyes open.
I opened the comments section and found the initial strange comment from a user:
“Da Shen, does the closed eye of the phoenix mean something?”
Da Shen replied, “Of course, there’s significance.”
“In ancient times, the phoenix was depicted with closed eyes, with a red thread embroidered to represent its eyes.”
“The phoenix symbolizes good fortune and wealth; closed eyes signify sleep, implying that the newlyweds will prosper while they rest.”
“But the red thread is crucial; it signifies that the phoenix is alive.”
“However, on this dress of yours, the phoenix looks wilted, and its eyes are sewn shut with white thread.”
“This phoenix is dead.”
Da Shen's comment was lengthy.
It took me a moment to read through it all.
My heart raced.
Damn!
What on earth is this thing?
I trembled as I typed in the comments section: “Da Shen, am I going to get into trouble?”
Da Shen didn’t reply.
But the comments section exploded.
“Anchor, where did you rent this Wedding Dress? It looks really good!”
“I rented it from Li Family Dam Back Street Alley. It’s really beautiful, very ethereal!”
“Wait a minute! With the phoenix’s eyes closed and the white thread stitching the eyes, this Wedding Dress is meant for the dead, right?”
“Dead? Is Anchor being haunted?”
“I was wondering why someone has been following me lately; turns out it’s a ghost!”
“Which ghost is following you, upstairs?”
“The Wedding Dress on Anchor looks so luxurious; it must be a wealthy ghost.”
“Is it possible that it’s not a ghost, but a zombie?”
“A zombie? Are there zombies where Anchor lives?”
“A zombie Wedding Dress sounds terrifying!”
What started as a simple piece of clothing had turned into an eerie discussion among netizens.
I nervously clutched my phone, my back drenched in cold sweat.
However,
Fortunately, there were also sensible commenters.
“Stop scaring the poor girl,” one user said.
“This is clearly a modern craft; the designer probably just made a small mistake,” another added.
“That’s true!” someone else chimed in.
“Exactly! The phoenix looks very lively; it doesn’t seem like it’s closing its eyes,” another commented.
“It’s just taking a nap with its eyes half-closed!”
"Brother Hothead, you're impressive! You really have culture!"
Brother Hothead beamed with pride, "Of course!"
"Everyone should think more when faced with problems, instead of just following what others say."
"It might just be a misunderstanding."
I also let out a sigh of relief.
Yes!
It must be a misunderstanding!
Just as I was about to put my phone down and go to sleep, it suddenly lit up.
A private message popped up on the screen.
It was from the user who had left the strange comment, Da Shen.
He asked, "Beautiful Anchor, did you rent that wedding dress from Li Family Dam Back Street Alley?"
Li Family Dam Back Street Alley.
I froze completely.
How did he know the exact address where I rented the dress?
Could he be the landlord?
No, that couldn't be right!
The last time I went to rent a place, the landlord was an elderly woman with white hair.
Could it be that this Da Shen was a woman disguised as a man? But looking at his profile picture, he clearly appeared to be a bearded man!
