Chafei has been single for 21 years, and she watches everyone around her basking in love and enjoying the good life, while her own love life shows no sign of blossoming! After endlessly praying to the gods, Buddha, and even God, she finally meets her destined partner in a haunted house. But to unlock her partner's voice and appearance, she has to put her life on the line. It's like thinking someone looks good and wanting to date them, only for them to say you have to pay off their debts first. What a terrible deal! But for love, she's all in!
A slice of their everyday life after getting together:
Chafei knows that Ruan Bai can't enjoy the delicious food of the human world just yet, but these chicken feet are so good, and eating them alone is no fun. So she smugly brags to him, "These chicken feet are spicy and sour, and the tendons are so chewy and springy. Have a bite and wash it down with some cola, and you'll be bubbling with happiness!"
Chafei imagined Ruan Bai ruffling her hair and calling her mischievous. She imagined him tossing the food into the trash and solemnly telling her that junk food was bad for her. What she never imagined was this.
Ruan Bai sat across from her, propping his head up with one hand and gazing at her adoringly. "I know!" Then, as if worried she might not understand, he explained, "I'll eat with you someday!"
That's it, she's fallen. She'd better hurry up and complete her missions so she can free her partner.
