Snagging a Ghost King for a Husband

Underworld Ghost King Yin Jiuzhu (Top) × Calamity-Ridden Lone Star Lu Ci'an (Bottom) Marriage first, love later · Older man · Strong leads · Mutual devotion · Monogamous from beginning to end · Both physically and emotionally pure Lu Ci'an was born under the fate of a calamity-ridden lone star, and his only saving grace is his stubbornly strong life force. A fortune-teller tells him he’ll die at thirty. The only way to avert it is to marry someone with an even stronger life force and ward off the bad luck. So, on a dark and windy night, he takes his marriage contract to a mass grave and stops a passing red bridal sedan. When the curtain lifts, he finds a handsome man in ancient robes, with silver hair and a ceremonial crown. He looks too beautiful to be alive, and gazes down at Lu as if he were an insect. Lu Ci'an steels himself and offers the marriage contract. “Um... will you marry me?” The man looks down at the contract, then suddenly smiles. Only later does Lu Ci'an learn that Yin Jiuzhu is no wandering ghost, but the ruler of the Underworld, who has been asleep for three thousand years. and that Yin Jiuzhu deliberately placed the sedan on that road. and that he wrote his own name on the marriage contract. Lu thought he was the one who’d caught his prize. Little did he know he was the fish being hooked from the very start.
