Lin An'an had just graduated, had no house or car, and was drowning in debt. She was fretting over how to afford rent when a lawyer called to tell her that her uncle Lin Zhong, who had lived abroad for years and whom she'd never met, had left her a villa.
Lin An'an inherited a villa worth fifty million and became rich overnight, still in a daze.
After the paperwork was done, the lawyer kindly warned her that a murder had taken place in the villa ten years ago. A family of four tenants had been killed, and ever since, rumors had circulated that the place was haunted. Every tenant had moved out within three days.
It sounded a little scary, but...
If being poor didn't scare her, why should a haunted house?
Full of confidence, Lin An'an was howling with fright on her first night there. She ran outside the villa and slept under the open sky, then posted dozens of rental ads before dawn.
The next day, a man holding a black umbrella walked up to her. "Excuse me, are you looking for tenants?"
Lin An'an looked up.
The man stood with the sun behind him. Beneath the umbrella, his face was breathtakingly handsome, and his bright, captivating eyes looked right at her.
She nodded, dumbstruck. "Yes."
And so Lin An'an's villa welcomed its first tenant.
Before signing the lease, Lin An'an still did the decent thing and told the man the place was haunted.
A smile flickered in his eyes. "I'm a materialist."
Prosperity, democracy, civility, harmony... Don't be afraid, don't be afraid. The red star shines on me!
That very night, she saw the materialist man holding his black umbrella and pointing it at the little boy who had played head-removal games in front of her the night before. He smiled with peerless elegance. "Good boy, don't keep people awake at night."
Then the man used the black umbrella to lift the little girl nearby, who was pulling out her own intestines and organs and putting them back in as a toy. "Put those away. It's not pretty."
Lin An'an rolled her eyes...
