[Passionate, Blunt, Wooden Woman x Sickly, Quiet, Secretly Passionate Man]
After Bai Yuan'an became a ghost, she finally found someone who could see her. She wanted him to retrieve her body, but he flatly refused. After she pestered him relentlessly, he reluctantly agreed.
Only later did she learn that Zhou Yanyu didn't actually have yin-yang eyes. He could see her and no other ghosts, and even then, only sometimes.

Not long after, she suddenly dreamed of her childhood friend despite having lost her memories, and went to him in confusion to ask what it meant.
Zhou Yanyu asked, "Did anything unusual happen yesterday?"
She thought it over. "Nothing unusual, really. I, um, saw you after your bath..."
Zhou Yanyu didn't change expression. "It seems my body has had quite an effect on you."

Another day, after fooling around with a dim-witted sword cultivator, she was about to climb through a window when she suddenly caught sight of someone hidden in the shadows behind it. His face was still pale with illness, and his voice seemed touched with frost. "You two are rather close."
She didn't agree. "You call that close? I think you and I are closer."
Something seemed to occur to him. A faint blush spread across his pale face as he slowly approached and took hold of her wrist.
She asked in confusion, "What are you doing?"
His earlobes were red as blood. "Getting close to you."
*
At first, Zhou Yanyu was only curious about the world of ghosts. But that little bit of curiosity, growing day by day, slowly drew him in. He willingly came closer, and by the time he realized what was happening, he was sinking into a swamp with no way out.
If he wanted to forget her, only death remained.
