[Mutual First-Love Purity + All Kinds of Flirting + Absurd Comedy + Two Strong Leads + Mystery + Ghost-Hunting and Metaphysics]
Hunt ghosts, question spirits, draw talismans, and break formations.
The sins committed by one's ancestors must be paid for by their descendants. Duan Qi is the unlucky one stuck paying the debt.
Not only does she have to repay it, she also has to earn money to support her family.
She scrapes together a living, takes care of her family, and talks her way into making an old tree bloom!
Who knew the old tree would turn out to be a crooked imperial merchant, rich enough to rival a nation and ready to shower her with money?
The crooked imperial merchant: “Throw money at her! Keep throwing money!”
She sleeps with gold in her arms, then goes ghost-hunting to pay off debts the next day.
The crooked imperial merchant tempts her: “Ghost-hunting isn't as sweet as gold.”
Unlucky Duan Qi groans, “Being alive is sweeter than gold.”
Only one day, Duan Qi discovers that the imperial merchant is the real evil ghost. You can never get rid of evil spirits, and they keep coming back. When money isn't enough, use looks; when looks aren't enough, use force.
Duan Qi grins. “What other tricks have you got?”
The evil ghost raises an eyebrow. “I'll take down your ancestors!”
1. The formations and talismans are fictional. Please don't scrutinize them.
2. One-on-one romance, with some angst. If that's not your thing, don't read.
3. All the foreshadowing will be explained.
4. There are secret identities, more than one.
