Name: I Just Inherited a Chinese Medicine Clinic, and Picked Up a Ghost Empress
Author: Strong Ginkgo Leaf

Synopsis

Freshly freed from the blessings of “996,” Gu Nian inherits the shabby Chinese medicine clinic his grandfather left behind. He thinks he can lie flat and live an easy life as a quackish miracle doctor, coasting on his family’s traditional skills. But on opening night, a [stunning female ghost, menacing and overflowing with yin energy] floats into the treatment room! Just as he thinks he’s doomed, he realizes that she seems... not to be the sharpest tool in the shed. Gu Nian sighs and hands her a bowl of his family’s calming herbal soup. “Drink this. From now on, you’re my [shop’s prized treasure].” From then on, eerie entities begin appearing all over the outside world, throwing the whole city into chaos. Meanwhile, Gu Nian’s Chinese medicine clinic gains a [female emperor] roommate who steals his snacks, binge-watches dramas, and occasionally gives him a back rub.

I'm Out of Things to Read. Tired of the Same Old Stories and Predictable Plots

I want a story about a transmigrated villainess changing her life, with a fresh plot, rich character relationships, goofy personalities, and strong values. It should include Douyin memes, and be written by an author who's always up to date with the latest trends.
