[Power Fantasy] [Dual Souls in the Female Lead] [Overpowered Protagonist] [Urban Ghost Hunting and Demon Slaying] Her master told her that Ye Linghe would die at eighteen.
She grew up living in seclusion with her master in Changsheng Valley. She had never seen the bright lights of the city, and she was poor and unsophisticated.
Before he died, her master sent her down the mountain to fulfill her betrothal contract and marry Chu Hanjiang, eldest son of the Chu Group.
A poor, unsophisticated girl marrying a handsome, wealthy, aloof CEO?
Chu Hanjiang broke off the engagement. He rejected outdated customs and a betrothal arranged when they were babies.
Ye Linghe agreed to end the engagement. A forced melon isn't sweet, and besides, she was going to die anyway.
Chu Hanjiang assumed Ye Linghe was pretending to be aloof. He thought she was a gold digger trying to play hard to get so she could approach him, transform from an ugly duckling into a swan, and marry into the Chu family.
The innocent young woman said she was a professional in feng shui and fortune-telling, and an expert at catching ghosts and dispelling evil.
Chu Hanjiang was an atheist. He thought the girl was crazy. How could ghosts exist? And she wanted to catch them? He scoffed and didn't want to see Ye Linghe.
But he happened to have a ghost-attracting constitution. Vengeful spirits all saw him as "Tang Monk meat," and ghosts were constantly haunting him.
Ye Linghe could extend her life by catching ghosts. To her surprise, when she caught a ghost that had drained Chu Hanjiang, she gained twice as much life!
From then on, he was her "elixir of longevity." He wanted to avoid her, while she cheerfully chased after him...
Chu Hanjiang: Please, stop messing with me!
Ye Linghe: I only want to catch ghosts and extend my life. I'm not interested in men!
