You Asked Me to Be a Live-In Son-in-Law, So I Built the Eighteen Hells

Sima Yan, a judge in the Criminal Justice Bureau, fell into the River of Forgetfulness and woke up in the body of Fu Jingyun, Jiangcheng’s most pathetic live-in son-in-law. The body had belonged to the second son of the wealthy Fu family. He had taken the blame for his twin brother’s fatal hit-and-run and served five years in prison. After his release, he had entered the Liu family as a live-in son-in-law, spent three years groveling after his wife and playing doting dad, then met his end at her hands when she struck him with a wine bottle.

Now that he’d returned in another man’s body, would Sima Yan put up with that kind of humiliation again? Cross him, and the tortures of the Eighteen Levels of Hell await. With his wicked charm and domineering ways, he turns the Liu family upside down, takes a fortune in divorce money, and walks away without looking back. His ex-wife, Liu Ruyan, regrets everything, while his biological brother, Fu Jingtian, marries into another wealthy family. None of it has anything to do with him anymore.

He returns to his old trade, becoming a city mystic who reads feng shui and catches evil spirits. He also reconnects with his university classmate Wen Xiner, who pursues him relentlessly until she wins her man. He marries into the Wen family, improves their feng shui and brings them good fortune, helps them become Jiangcheng’s richest family, and has triplets with his beloved wife. At last, this judge from the underworld finds his happily ever after among the living, surrounded by his wife and children.
