Shi Zhaowei, a mortician determined to live well, x Lu Wensheng, a sharp-tongued but soft-hearted emergency doctor
Their relationship of almost five years ended just ten days short of the anniversary. With a dog on one hand and flowers in the other, Shi Zhaowei packed up and left in style.
Along the way, she picked up a man too.
Her ex-boyfriend's uncle, Lu Wensheng.
He has impeccable morals. Apart from his mouth, which is as foul as poison, he's good in every way. Oh, and one more thing: once he drops the disguise of a respectable elder, he gets a little impatient.
"Uncle, don't come any closer. I'm scared."
"But Shi Zhaowei, I've been hoping you'd break up for five years and seventy-eight days."
Morticians help the dead move on, while emergency doctors keep the living alive.
You'd think these two professions would make for a cool, detached romance about seeing through life and death, but their love affair is scorching.
