Fan Yuxiang was born a ghost of the earth, and had lived for several centuries. She drifted through the human world, coming and going as she pleased, and had a wonderful time until she met a mortal missing his heavenly soul. Only then did she realize how hard life could be. His earthly soul might be a rarity, but the man was sickly and pampered, an utter burden!
Yuxiang thought he didn't have many years left, so she decided to take him on as a little sidekick for the time being. But the young mortal seemed cursed with a lonely, ill-fated destiny, attracting trouble wherever they went.
Yuxiang dug up graves while he drank tea.
Yuxiang caught ghosts while he listened to opera.
Yuxiang couldn't take it anymore. But she couldn't kill him, either. So one dark and windy night, she packed her things and ran. She didn't want this high-grade soul anymore.
After ditching the young man, Yuxiang set out to investigate cases on her own again.
At first, she was pleased with herself, until she got her next job. She dug up the grave and questioned the spirit, but in the end, she hit a dead end with a living person. She investigated for three whole days without making any headway. So Yuxiang stared at the name in her hand for a long time, finally gritted her teeth, and went back to find Lin Yuetang, tail between her legs.
A month later, Yuxiang stood at the inn door, weary from the road.
The person drinking tea inside didn't even look up. He only sneered, "Back again?"
Yuxiang: "..."
Yuxiang lost her memory.
But she had to attend the Gathering of Gods and Ghosts soon, and she had completely forgotten what she'd been doing lately.
With no other choice, she had to go to the trouble of finding her older brother to help her save face.
As she sat at the banquet, she found the person beside her oddly familiar. At first, she thought her memory loss had made her face-blind. But when they met eyes, she realized he was looking at her with such resentment.
Yuxiang: "?"
Yuxiang: "Do I know you?"
The man: "Wife, how could you forget your husband?"
A proud ghost woman, skilled in ghostly affairs but clueless about human feelings, x a perceptive, sickly young gentleman with a hidden dark side
