Gu Huanqie transmigrates into the body of an employee in the Underworld and happens to acquire a Book of Life and Death System. Her task is to help ghosts fulfill their wishes and earn five-star reviews.
The King of Hell tells her that once her approval rating reaches one hundred percent, she can leave the Underworld and be reborn.
Scenes like these are a regular occurrence in the Underworld:
Ghost 1: "Hello, I'd like to arrange my reincarnation. I want to be born into a rich family."
Ghost 2: "Hello, I'd like to buy a bowl of Meng Po Soup."
Ghost 3: "Hello, I'd like to arrange a dream visitation."
System: Notice, notice. According to the Earth Spirits' report, an earthquake is about to hit the human world. Several hundred people are expected to die. All Underworld departments, please prepare to receive them.
Of course, to better receive the souls of the dead, the Underworld's offices have outposts in the human world. One of them is called the Huahai Concert Hall.
In the human world, Gu Huanqie is a high school student.
Everything is perfectly normal, until one day a boy dressed in black suddenly transfers into her class.
The boy becomes her deskmate. He has an aloof, fragile air about him, and Gu Huanqie assumes he's some pampered young master from a wealthy family. Then, one day, a car crash occurs on the ring road. The boy, who should have died, walks away completely unharmed and casually crushes a nearby evil ghost with his own hands...
It is only when she sees that the boy's name is missing from the Book of Life and Death...
that she realizes something is wrong.
The boy drops every last bit of his disguise and grips Gu Huanqie's waist tightly. The madness in his eyes could nearly destroy the world. "I've finally found you. Don't go. Don't leave me again..."
At midnight on the night of the full moon, the silent zither in the corner of the concert hall begins to play. Lost ghosts follow its music and slowly make their way here.
Mortals call it the Gates of Hell.
Many years ago, to meet her work quota, she once accepted a request from a female ghost.
In life, the ghost had been the legitimate eldest daughter of a general's household and had been betrothed to the crown prince since childhood. But after someone accused the general of growing too powerful and threatening the throne, the entire family was executed. Her family was destroyed, and the ghost died consumed by hatred.
Gu Huanqie changed her appearance to match the ghost's, took her place, and fought her way into the imperial palace. In the end, she joined forces with a rival kingdom and personally destroyed her own country.
On the day her country fell, the mission was complete. She leapt from the city gate and returned to the Underworld as a soul.
She died too soon to see the young, already-famous crown prince of the rival kingdom stagger toward her.
Later, a ghost who came down told her that on that day, the crown prince sat beneath the tower for a long time, holding her body. His tears fell through the blood onto her face, like tears of blood.
She'd nearly forgotten about it after all these years. Then her new deskmate arrived, looking exactly like that crown prince from the rival kingdom...

2: The female lead's identity is even more mysterious, and there's far more to her than meets the eye.
