[The socially anxious Meng Po’s goof-off days in the mortal realm: so funny she can barely hold her bowl of memory-erasing soup!]
Meng Po was a veteran employee of the Underworld who had worked 996 shifts for a thousand years without a vacation. At last, she snapped and yelled at the King of Hell: “I’m taking time off!” But the crafty King of Hell set her up, and she was reborn as Meng Xiaotang, a socially anxious young woman in the 21st century.
She thought she’d get to lie flat and enjoy eighty years of doing nothing. Instead:
✓ She comes with a “Teletubbies”-style spiritual-energy suppressor (ordinary people can’t see it, but it’s mortifying)
✓ She’s forced to moonlight as a “soul inspector” (What happened to my vacation?!)
✓ She runs into her overly familiar colleague Tian Datian (Help! Stay away from me!)
✓ Her company is full of oddballs (a chuuni queen × a hot-blooded team leader × a Taoist colleague)
Worst of all, the “soul detector” the King of Hell gave her suddenly starts vibrating! She looks up and sees a ghost delivery guy floating outside the window, carrying takeout that’s giving off black smoke...
“Damn it! What happened to my paid vacation?!”
“You stingy old King of Hell, just you wait!”
