"Young Master Gu, I won't call off this engagement." My hand trembled as I clutched the engagement ring, while the crystal chandelier in the banquet hall stabbed at my eyes.
Gu Hengzhi lowered his gaze, the cuff links on his suit flashing with a cold gleam. "Lin Zhaozhao, you can't even get an invitation to a Gu family banquet. What makes you think you can be the Gu family's young madam?"
That night, I dug out the tattered book my parents had left behind, The Scripture of Impermanence. Suddenly, a ghostly blue flame shimmered across its pages.
"Ding! An orphan of the Immortal Sect detected. Underworld Impermanence System activated."
The next day, the police station received an anonymous tip: "The delivery worker who fell to his death was murdered by the bespectacled man in a camel-colored coat on the 23rd floor."
As the arrest was broadcast live across the internet, Gu Hengzhi's Porsche was parked right outside the police station.
He rolled down the window and sneered. "Don't tell me you think becoming an internet-famous author will turn your life around."
I touched the Impermanence Order burning against my chest and looked at the vengeful spirit in red floating behind him inside the office tower.
Mr. Gu, I'll take care of the "feng shui problem" at your company.
