Encountering Ghosts

There is a special perpetual calendar that records five thousand years of yin-yang fortunes and misfortunes. It can calculate the yin-yang fortunes and misfortunes of different years across thousands of years. According to its records, every thousand years brings several exceptionally perilous years. They are called: Yin Years. After that day, fierce winds and torrential rain swept through, thick fog blotted out the sky, and the climate turned strange. Mysterious, uncanny creatures began appearing one after another in the fog, and the land sank into a hazy chaos. - Jiao Sheng, the handsomest guy in the journalism department, was beautiful, fair-skinned, and bright-eyed. On the first day of the storm, he attracted the attention of something strange. In the eyes of these creatures, Jiao Sheng was just the right balance of sweet and savory, tender and delicious, fragrant, smooth, and juicy. A dish waiting to be eaten. Someone narrowed their slit pupils. "Are you unhappy?" Jiao Sheng, eyes brimming with tears: "I'm happy. Really happy... Could you just please stop drooling over me?" Someone: "Oh.

From eighteen to twenty-one, he experienced every kind of warmth and coldness. When the three-year term was up, Sheng Chu was kicked out and set free. Everyone laughed at him, saying that in three years he hadn't even warmed the heart of the Gu family's young master. 2 On the day he left, Sheng Chu walked through the wealthy district in a torrential downpour. Rain clung to his shirt, leaving him in a miserable state, until a stunning big cat came to his rescue. As it happened, this very big cat was his blind date a few days later. The cat was a CEO who urgently needed a marriage to stabilize his public image. Sheng Chu never expected his second marriage to be another business alliance. 3 At first, Sheng Chu thought the cat was pretty great: incredibly handsome, cool and refined, and, most importantly, his big tail felt wonderful to touch. He thought to himself that this was better than the Gu family's neighbor's husky, at least. This black cat was a conservative sort. He insisted on waiting until they were married before doing that, so Sheng Chu thought he was a cat who stood for righteousness. They got engaged, had a drink, signed the papers, and entered the bridal chamber. They didn't sleep a wink. The next day, lying in bed, Sheng Chu figured he might need a wheelchair to get around. The more he thought about it, the more he felt he'd been duped! A week later, Sheng Chu couldn't take it anymore and wanted a divorce. The aloof big cat turned into a beast in an instant. "What's wrong with me? Tell me, and I can change." Sheng Chu trembled. "You're wonderful..." The big cat's eyes glinted fiercely. "Then why do you want a divorce?" Sheng Chu sniffled. "You lied to me. At first you said you were a cat, but you're actually a leopard. And you're a thorny rose. I can't handle you." The big cat: "..." A line echoed in the big cat's mind: In ancient times, there was castration by the sword... No, wait. This really wasn't something he could change. 4 The big cat CEO fell in love with a human. After finally getting the chance to play the hero and save the beauty in the rain, he restrained himself, pretended to be gentle and refined, and cared for him with the utmost attention. At last, he tricked him into marriage, then couldn't hold back on their wedding day and went on a full-on rampage, sucking him dry. And then it all backfired. ※Important: The bottom and his ex never had any intimate contact. Theme: Always treat the unknown with reverence
