My Beloved Is a Mystery

A professional husband-killer? No, a professional sleuth!

Su Jiuyi, the capital's number-one “jinx,” makes a living getting engaged and is notorious for bringing death to her husbands. After her three fiancés die one after another, she becomes the prime suspect in her own “curse.”

Rong Yan, a brilliant young official and devastatingly handsome head of the Court of Judicial Review, comes to arrest her in person and rid the people of this menace. But the witch grabs him by the leg, tears in her eyes. “My lord, the divination says you're next! You have to get engaged to me at once to break the curse!”

Rong Yan sneers. “Spreading heresy only adds to your crimes!”

Yet the details she casually reveals about the crime scene match the classified evidence he has uncovered perfectly.

By some strange twist of fate, the Great Ye's highest law enforcer and its prime suspect sign a ridiculous “engagement contract.”

From then on, the Court of Judicial Review takes an unexpected turn: she “summons spirits” to solve cases and “casts a divination” to find clues. Every day, Rong Yan is either solving a case or being driven to the brink of resigning by his future wife.

But when the fog clears and the truth comes to light, Rong Yan discovers that behind her jokes and antics lies a blood feud from ten years ago. And the hands he thought were only good for putting on a show can do more than examine corpses and solve cases: when he is in danger, she doesn't hesitate to take a deadly blow for him.
