Tomorrow, Please Burn Me a Switch 2

[Socially Anxious, Money-Grubbing Beauty Bottom x Ghostly CEO Top]

[Ji Mian x Qin Zhuo]

[The top is a ghost-faced doll in the first 15 chapters, then a real person afterward]

1.

Su Mian, who was socially anxious, transmigrated into a modern novel about a marriage meant to bring good fortune.

The original owner's identity was that of the real son, unloved by both his father and mother. After being brought back to the family, he was immediately made to take the place of the fake son and marry Qin Zhuo, the future head of the Qin Group.

The good news: Qin Zhuo owned billions in assets.

The even better news: He was already dead! Dead!!

Faced with a future of becoming a young widow, Su Mian clapped his flippers like a seal. Could such a wonderful thing really exist?

He could live alone in a luxurious mansion without having to deal with anyone!

And Qin Zhuo controlled the lifeblood of China's economy. As long as he became Qin Zhuo's wife, all those billions would be his!

So Su Mian happily went off to get married.

On his first night at the Qin family home, the butler solemnly handed Su Mian a ghost-faced doll and said, "This is President Qin."

The doll had a pair of beautiful, bewitching fox eyes, its pupils shifting with the moonlight.

Su Mian sensed a ghostly aura around it. When he cautiously picked it up, it gazed at him eerily and even rubbed its fluffy head against the crook of his arm.

Su Mian felt both happy and afraid. He was happy that he wouldn't have to attend to Qin Zhuo, but afraid of the ghost-faced doll. It was supposed to be an inanimate object, yet its expressions and movements were far too lifelike.

He held the ghost-faced doll in terror through his wedding night.

2.

When Su Mian woke the next day, his clothes were intact and nothing had happened.

But a list had appeared beside his pillow, detailing the things he had to do each day.

[Call Qin Zhuo "hubby" of your own accord]

[Burn a Switch 2 tomorrow, so Qin Zhuo can ease his stress while handling business in the underworld]

[Kiss Qin Zhuo once when you wake up and once before bed]

[Have dinner with Qin Zhuo in the evening]

[Tell Qin Zhuo a bedtime story and soothe him to sleep]

The more Su Mian read, the stranger it seemed. Why did he have to do such intimate things with a ghost-faced doll?

The butler told him that if he didn't follow the list, Qin Zhuo would lose his temper, and when he did, every servant in the Qin household would suffer. Of course, if he followed it, Qin Zhuo's fortune would all be his.

Who could turn down money? Su Mian obediently followed the list, forcing himself to treat the ghost-faced doll as his husband.

Little by little, he got used to this ghostly life.

The Xie family was pretty nice. There was plenty to eat, drink, and play with, and hardly anyone around. What a carefree life.

3.

The unexpected happened a month later, when Qin Zhuo's enemy came looking for him.

The enemy set his sights on Su Mian and leered. "Instead of being a widower, why don't you let me have you as my plaything?"

Su Mian's face turned pale. While trying to escape, the enemy snatched away the ghost-faced doll. Thinking it was cursed, he set it on fire.

Su Mian squeezed his eyes shut in terror. But the assault he expected never came. Instead, something wet and cold, smelling of rust, splattered across his face.

It was blood, the enemy's blood. Evil spirits had burst out of the ground and devoured him alive!

"Sorry I startled you, darling."

A hand wrapped in red threads, its fingers long and pale, reached out to gently wipe the dirt from Su Mian's face.

Still shaken, Su Mian looked up and met a pair of deep, sparkling fox eyes.

The man wore a sharp suit. His exposed jawline was as sharp as a blade, and his skin was a sickly, dazzling white. He seemed neither human nor ghost.

Su Mian stammered, "Who are..."

Before he could finish, the man pressed a finger to his lips. "Forgot something on the list? Call me hubby."

Su Mian pinched the man's face. "Hubby, you're alive?"

He gave it a hard pinch. Sure enough, the man was alive.

Su Mian was happy for a moment, then shook his head dejectedly. "That's no good."

Qin Zhuo: "Why not?"

Su Mian: "If you're alive, I can't inherit all your money."

Qin Zhuo: "..."

Qin Zhuo, CEO of the Qin Group in the mortal world and a tycoon revered by evil spirits in the underworld, where he continued to build his business empire, was laughing in exasperation at his mortal wife for the first time in his life.
