Overworked office worker Li Ji unexpectedly awakens the ability to cleanse evil spirits during a late night at work. She casually takes care of a female ghost in her office building, then receives a huge anonymous payment!
That opens the door to a whole new world. She quits her job and starts taking ghost-hunting commissions full-time: cleansing haunted houses, banishing vengeful spirits, breaking curses... As long as the pay is good, there’s no supernatural case she can’t handle, and her wealth grows faster than a rocket!
But on the job, a mysterious investor named Shen Huai is always hanging around. He not only sends high-end commissions her way, but also shows up at just the right moment whenever danger strikes, all while taking a laughably small cut of the commission.
Li Ji asks, “What are you after, anyway?” A thousand years of longing lie hidden in Shen Huai’s eyes. “Your safety. And for you to... remember me.”
As it turns out, Shen Huai is an ancient spirit general who crossed lifetimes to find her again. He holds the key to the love and resentment they shared in a past life, while Li Ji’s former life as a spirit-clan priestess gradually resurfaces as her supernatural cases grow more dangerous. Surrounded by vengeful ghosts and pursued by the shadows of her past, Li Ji builds a fortune hunting ghosts even as she falls for Shen Huai under his protection. When her memories awaken, the two will join hands to break free of their predicament and find a happy ending, continuing their love story amid the regrets of their past life and the riches they build in this one!
