[Modern Supernatural + Sweet Romance + Episodic Stories + Fussy Little Money-Grubber x Protective Deity]
On her twenty-fifth birthday, Guan Cai, who had just quit her job, inherited a coffin shop.
It was in the old city district of the capital, with a storefront on the main street and a large courtyard.
Guan Cai couldn't help shouting, "At last, this kind of good fortune has come my way!"
She offered incense to the deity enshrined in her home every day, and her wishes were always practical.
She prayed to get rich, to have things go smoothly, and to live a more comfortable life.
Ideally, she would also have a little less work to do each day.
Later, her life really did become livelier and livelier.
Ghost customers came to the coffin shop, she made acquaintances in the underworld, and even the deity she worshipped descended in person and moved into her home.
Guan Cai was very pleased.
She called on him whenever she needed help, and even when she didn't, she liked to stick close to him. Whenever trouble came, she asked for advice, and once it was handled, she wanted a compliment too.
Tongtian knew she was pretending to be sweet, and he knew that when she complained of being tired, she wasn't necessarily that tired.
But whenever she looked up at him and pleaded in a soft voice, he still gave in, time and again.
Until someone mentioned that Guan Cai would have to get married someday.
Tongtian suddenly found that idea deeply irritating.
Later, Guan Cai was kissed until she forgot what she had meant to say.
It took her quite a while to remember...
When she had offered incense back then, she had only prayed to get rich.
She hadn't asked for this.
