Liu Xiangyi, the young heir to a top-tier wealthy family, was told by a fortune teller that if he wanted to survive past the age of 25, he had to enter a ghost marriage.
The catch? His predestined “spirit spouse” turned out to be none other than his lifelong arch-rival.

Even in death, his rival won’t leave him alone, frequently visiting his dreams with demands: roast chicken for his birthday, a new smartphone for the Ghost Festival.
In a fit of “angry obedience,” Liu Xiangyi burned every single paper offering requested.
Of course, the “husband” sends gifts back. One morning, Liu Xiangyi woke up to find a literal skull on his pillow.
“Isn’t this skull cute? It’s me. I dug myself up and washed myself clean just for you. How about you sleep while hugging it from now on?”
Liu Xiangyi: “!”
“What’s wrong? We’ve only been married six months and you’re already giving me the cold shoulder?”
Liu Xiangyi: “…”
Under his rival’s supernatural protection, Liu Xiangyi dodged car crashes and survived earthquakes, finally making it past his 25th birthday. Naturally, his mind began to wander. His “husband” was dead—was he supposed to remain a “widow” forever?
He decided to try blind dating.
Day 1: Ghostly winds howled throughout the date.
Day 2: Blood water bubbled up from the toilet.
Day 3: Hell money rained from the sky.
Needless to say, his dates fled in terror.
Liu Xiangyi: (Rubbing temples with a bitter smile.jpg)
Just as he was about to give up on love, he encountered a mysterious young man in the depths of the night. The man held a large black umbrella; his dark sleeve slid back to reveal a pale, sickly wrist—an aura of someone who hadn’t seen sunlight in a long, long time.
Liu Xiangyi couldn’t help himself. He leaned in and whispered:
“Want to date? The kind where we go behind my husband’s back?”
The Couple:
Gong (Top): Gloomy, “Soggy” Male Ghost
Shou (Bottom): Wealthy Young Master who claims to believe in science (but is actually very superstitious)
