After I Died, I Found Out I Had a Boyfriend

If all goes as planned, starts October 23

○ Fake scum | Widower | Secretly in love with him

Xu Chuyao is a female ghost who looks young. She can't remember how long she's been dead or anything about her life before she died.

One day, a man moved into the empty house where she often stayed.

He gradually brought in his belongings. Xu Chuyao happened to notice several photographs on the bedside table, which had once been bare. The woman in the pictures had exactly the same features as her.

Then she heard the man holding a nightgown and softly calling her name. It was only when she heard his suggestive panting that she realized he and she had been very close when she was alive.

Later, Xu Chuyao had no idea how the man learned she was there, but he could even see and touch her.

The moment Xu Yize saw her, he held her and cried for what felt like forever.

Before the hot yang energy coming from him made Xu Chuyao nearly faint from its intoxicating fragrance, she asked timidly, “Hello. Were you my boyfriend when I was alive?”

Tears still hanging at the corners of his eyes, Xu Yize froze for a moment, then smiled. “Yes, Yaoyao. You are the one I love.”

Xu Chuyao had lost her memories, but Xu Yize smelled so good that every night she had to burrow into his arms and breathe him in. The instinctive familiarity of their physical closeness made her even more certain that they must have been deeply in love.

And so the human and the ghost began a shameless life together.

One day, she heard Xu Yize's mother on the phone. “Yize, your younger sister's death anniversary is coming up. Your father and I will come over in a couple of days so we can visit her grave together.”

Xu Yize calmly replied, “All right.”

“Your younger sister's death anniversary? You have a sister? Did she pass away too?”

Xu Yize held her. A flicker of surprise crossed his eyes. “My younger sister is you. You're younger than me, so my parents got used to calling you that.”

“Oh...” Xu Chuyao nodded, then buried her cold face against his chest and breathed him in again.

Little sister, why did you have to leave me like that?

In the third year after her death, Xu Yize still often thought this.

He had gone to great lengths to find her soul, never expecting her to mistake him for her lover.

He craved the closeness he had never had with her before, so he thought he'd just let the misunderstanding stand.

They would be together forever anyway.

But he hadn't expected Xu Chuyao to discover his lie after all.

Content warnings:

The blurb was written on September 9, 2025, and has been screenshotted.

1. One male, one female; happy ending, but the female lead will not come back to life. The male lead is emotionally and physically pure, and loves only his younger sister.

2. Most of the worldbuilding is author-created. The female lead felt no pain when she passed away, and it's as if she moved on to live in another world.

3. A chaotic kink-fic. I just want to serve up some food about a guy and his ghostly younger sister.
