Zhong Luoluo died suddenly from overwork. She fainted on her way to be reincarnated, and when she awoke, she was lying in the Hall of the King of Hell.
A cool, aloof man stood on the dais, looking down at her. He said calmly, "Help me catch ghosts, and I'll send you home."
Zhong Luoluo, who cherished her life, nodded.
As the saying goes, every profession has its own specialty. But she wasn't a professional ghost catcher, so what had caught the King of Hell's attention?
Was she good at drawing talismans, or was she just fast at running for her life?
Jiang Li smiled faintly. "Neither."
Later, she overheard the past of this fearsome ruler, who held the power of life and death. A thousand years ago, a woman had cheated on him???
Even more absurdly, she discovered that the woman had been her all along?
When Zhong Luoluo learned the truth, her hand shook as she poured Jiang Li tea, and she added a little something extra. Jiang Li swirled the cup, and its contents crackled and popped.
Jiang Li: "What's this?"
Zhong Luoluo: "Goji berries. I was worried you'd stay up late and die young..."
Later, this cold-hearted King of Hell stood with Zhong Luoluo on the Bridge of Helplessness, telling her of his thousand-year love.
The eternally cool light in Jiang Li's eyes softened. "In this vast world, we'll always find each other."
As long as you come to me, it's all worth it.

When she first met Zou Tingyi, he was leaning against a wall, a careless smile playing at the corner of his mouth as he cast an amused glance at the tall, handsome figure walking away.
Arrogant and unrestrained, he asked,
"Xu Jinzhao, you like him? Why not... try liking me instead?"
Xu Jinzhao's friend once described the rich young men led by Zou Tingyi like this:
"Jinzhao, those rich playboys have no sense of responsibility. They never take relationships seriously, so don't let Zou Tingyi fool you."
Xu Jinzhao nodded. At that moment, it was still half a month before she would fall for Zou Tingyi's sweet talk.
Just as expected, their passionate romance ended on a rainy night full of sorrow.
After the breakup, Xu Jinzhao went to the northwest. Six months later, an earthquake struck Kushui. It was bitterly cold at night, and she and her students sat on the sports field, burning books to keep warm.
Through the hazy moonlight, she saw Zou Tingyi arrive, exhausted from his long journey, having come through the night.
His voice hoarse, he pleaded, "Xu Jinzhao, can't you love me one more time?"
Theme: Longing makes love eternal.
Isn't this the ending of be?
