Synopsis
[Two male leads + childhood friends + campus paranormal + ghost exorcism + devoted couple + happy ending + mutual secret crush]
A flashy, clingy top who’s actually a pure romantic and a seemingly aloof, flirtatious bottom with a wonderfully odd way of thinking
Short version: a top ghosts are afraid of and a bottom who attracts ghosts
By some predestined fate, the two were bound to meet, repaying debts from a past life in this one.
As a child, Lu Siyan had a wisp of his soul stolen by a vengeful ghost. His already frail body grew even paler and weaker, leaving him “half yin.”
The only thing keeping him alive was a little gold lock his grandfather gave him for protection.
To improve Lu Siyan’s health, his parents sent him abroad to study, hoping he might find some shelter there.
As long as the lock remained, he would be safe.
But on the eve of his seventeenth birthday, his grandfather suddenly passed away, and the protective gold lock shattered at the same time.
Just one day later, Lu Siyan’s temperature plummeted, his heartbeat slowed, and ghostly figures filled his vision.
A Taoist priest told him that only someone with an overwhelmingly yang constitution could alleviate his condition.
With no other choice, his family sent him to the school attended by his childhood friend, Xie Shiyan.
Almost everyone thought Lu Siyan was a sickly beauty who had gotten into the school solely through his family’s influence. Only Xie Shiyan eagerly hoped that his first love would soon return to his side.
Too frail to look after himself? No problem. I can be elegant in public and capable at home, and I’m good at music, chess, calligraphy, and painting.
Annoying little ghosts always hanging around? Easy. As an exorcist, I was born to protect you.
Then, on his very first day after transferring, Lu Siyan stood up for someone and took on three thugs. Is that what “too frail to look after himself” looks like?
And he already keeps a little ghost by his side. So, the exorcist is me? Baby, you really are too kind.
To deal with the annoying little ghosts, they founded the Seventh Office, which only accepts people who have paranormal activity around them.
And don’t ask what they’re doing in their spare time. They’re studying, obviously.
