Lu Youyou dug a little wooden puppet out of the ground and met a strange man who bit her the moment they met.
She took out a little silver coffin. "Want me to take you home?"
He turned and walked off by himself.
When they met again, he had become Jiang Shiyu, the sickly young master of the Jiang family, whom everyone doted on.
She accidentally broke the young master's jade ornament and ended up owing him fifty million.
To pay off her debt, she cared for his frail body during the day and accompanied him at night as he walked between the realms of the living and the dead, collecting the final breaths of those about to die.
On top of that, he was always trying to bite her.
In a fit of anger, Lu Youyou gathered fifty million and slapped it down in front of him. "You can get lost now."
He dragged over a mirror. "I want fifty million taels of silver."
A long string of numbers hovered above her head in the mirror. Her debt was carved into her soul and couldn't be erased.
Fifty million taels of silver? Was she supposed to conquer half the world with her bare hands and give it to him? Or would it be easier to just kill him?
Lu Youyou: Oh, so to repay the debt, he just has to die once. That's no problem.
Jiang Shiyu: Even in death, we'll be together.
