Recently laid-off office worker Shangguan Liang awakens as the only person in the city with the ability to provide after-sales service for demons, specializing in repairing magical treasures, inner cores, and demon appliances. His ex-girlfriend, Su Qingyuan, publicly breaks off their engagement, declaring that all he can do is fix junk.
Then, when she’s badly wounded and waiting to die in a secret realm after her Azure Dragon fiancé shoves her in front of a monster, she sees Shangguan Liang carrying a toolbox and repairing the guardian beast’s pliers. The beast treats him with utmost respect and even carries her out of danger.
From then on, the aloof beauty camps outside his repair shop every day, bringing spirit crystals, opening packages, and handing out numbered tickets. She pursues him so relentlessly that all the demons in Linjiang come to watch. She gradually discovers that even the Demon Venerable whom the Su family desperately tries to curry favor with has to queue up for an inner-core repair.
Then Azure Dragon cultivators come knocking, and three fat cats lazily open their eyes.
As it turns out, all the big shots in Linjiang know her ex. And if she wants to be the shopkeeper’s wife, she’ll have to pay these three cats in dried fish first.
