Synopsis

[Natural disasters and the apocalypse + supernatural phenomena returning, nonhuman characters, ghost seme, two male leads with the shou as the main character, no special powers, with a functioning state and organized groups]

The bridge collapsed, and his beloved became his late husband.

Qi Wen is still consumed by grief over his beloved’s death when he finally claims his ashes. Then an earthquake strikes, and he narrowly escapes with his life.

After coming so close to death, who wouldn’t feel more at peace with the world? Once transportation services resume, Qi Wen decides to go out and see the country’s magnificent landscapes, taking his late husband’s ashes with him so he can stop drowning in sorrow.

But strange things keep happening after he arrives at his destination.

First, as if under a spell, he buys a house in the tourist city and goes from vacationing there to settling down.

Then every morning he wakes with new, suggestive red marks on his body: his chest, back, thighs... And there is always a gaze, hidden yet intensely invasive, whose owner he can never find.

Qi Wen suspects a pervert is stalking him. He quickly packs his things and prepares to leave home and stay at a hotel for a couple of days. Just as he is about to step outside, thunder cracks across the sky and a sudden downpour begins.

He hates the rain and doesn’t like going out in wet weather, so he gives up on leaving right away and decides to wait for it to stop.

Under the torrential rain, home becomes an island.

Biting in the middle of the night. Waking with a start. His beloved, returned as a ghost.

His late husband has come back. Even if he’s a ghost, he’s finally home, and Qi Wen should be happy.

But then come the catastrophic rains, the return of the supernatural, the extreme cold... None of it gives him much cause for joy. When humanity’s survival is at stake, how can he protect both the person he loves and the home they share?

It's really good. At least, I found it very comfortable to watch. There were some sweet little details, and it was really easy to ship the two. The couple's sweet moments were so delicious!

This is truly a loving book from the author! It's so sweet, and the occasional interactions between the young couple are so heartwarming. You can tell the author really loves them; the emotional descriptions are so delicate. The supporting characters are also very intelligent and emotionally intelligent, making them incredibly rational and touching. I absolutely love this book.

The pacing is quite fast, the whole story is engaging and doesn't drag, the characters are well-developed, and the emotional descriptions are quite delicate! I'm curious about the rating mechanism; maybe because there aren't many readers, this rating definitely has room to rise!

I've finished reading it, and it's a really good and refreshing book among books in the human-ghost genre. It just feels a bit too short, the pace is a little too fast, and it feels like it could be expanded a lot more. Will the author write other books in this genre? I'm looking forward to it.

I had considered contacting the official channels, but I didn't expect it to happen so quickly. They joined the official organization after just over 20 chapters. Just a heads-up for readers who prefer a lone wolf story. I prefer lone wolf stories, so I'm leaving now. The writing is good, and the romance is quite sweet.

Normally, I wouldn't like a novel where the main characters are already together at the beginning and the other one is gone, but this novel is really well-written. I simply don't like poorly written novels. The main characters' relationship in this novel is clearly and smoothly established from the very beginning.

It has a genuine CP (couple) vibe; the young couple is just so adorable 😘 The setting of natural disasters and spiritual revival is quite interesting, but I think it's more like a supernatural novel than a post-apocalyptic story, with most of the descriptions focusing on ghost hunting. But it's still very good!

It's a great read, the plot is quite fresh, and I immediately caught up to the latest chapter. Aside from the very tear-jerking opening chapters, the later chapters after Qi Wen and Pei Ren's reunion are mostly sweet. Are they childhood sweethearts, family, and lovers, or simply a pair of doting, love-struck individuals?
