Luqiao, who lives in the 18th-tier city, was forced to take a part-time job as a delivery boy in the "underworld" because he could not pay the rent.
His job description: Carrying a broken lantern at night, he hunts the lost souls on the streets and coaxes them back to sleep in a hotel called "The Past".
And his immediate boss, Lin Jing, is a tsundere beauty who has been trapped in the store for more than a thousand years. Not only does she have a bad temper, but she also loves to hold grudges, especially when it comes to protecting food, such as the fried chicken she had for late-night snacks.
Lu Qiao originally thought this was a hard job, until he saw Lin Jing secretly getting red-rimmed because of a kid who wanted to eat his mother's noodles; and then using half of the fried chicken to lure back a rhinoceros with a broken horn.
Luqiao realized: This is not the hotel owner, he is clearly an over-age left-behind child with a sharp mouth and a heartless heart.
Therefore, Luqiao, who clocks in on time every night, is not only responsible for guiding the way and coaxing ghosts, but also for making this "thousand-year-old boss lady" happy.
Lin Jing: If you eat my fried chicken again, I will stew you!
Luqiao: Come on, sister, why don't you think I'll be your delivery boy for the rest of my life?
