[A seemingly useless, penniless Taoist who can't look after herself * a celebrity ex who gets flirtier]
The Lu family owns an old shop filled with antiques that has been losing money for years.
By the time it passed down to Lu Jingning, she had turned it into a general store selling all kinds of things: glutinous rice, dog blood, talismans, gold-foil incense and candles, and more.
People who don't know any better:
"Has the owner gone crazy for money? Five thousand for a handful of rice?"
"Damn, she's even selling foul-smelling black dog blood?"
"She's limiting sales of a piece of yellow paper?"
But the shop opens only on the first day of each month, and the moment its doors open, it's packed. It makes a fortune every day and gets five-star reviews.
The rich, the socialites, and the officials: What do you know? ...The real expensive stuff is the personal service that never even makes it onto the shelves!
Lu Jingning, who has quietly become a rich woman, has recently found something to worry about.
It turns out she has a fiance she's never even met?
The good news: Her fiance is handsome, smart, and has long legs!
The bad news: Three years ago, he showed up at her door with a box of cash to call off the engagement. That was good news too, actually. But now, three years later, he's back with ten boxes of cash, threatening her: "The betrothal gifts! No dowry needed. I'll see you at the Civil Affairs Bureau in three days!"
Xie Shai props up his face and gazes at the fiancee before him, who claims to be timid, antisocial, shallow, incompetent, too frail to look after herself, and even frigid. He pretends not to notice how brutally she just killed a whole swarm of evil spirits with her bare hands.
He sincerely thinks, "My wife is so cute when she lies through her teeth."
Lu Jingning: "...Are you a masochist?"
Xie Shai: "No, I'm moved by your sincerity."
Lu Jingning: The wind is too loud. I didn't hear that... What did she move him with?
But Xie Shai, a formidable martial artist, rubs his chin and says: Her blows really hurt!
Theme: Ghosts are just people who died. They're not scary.
