After taking a huge breakup payment from her ex-boyfriend's family, Cui Rong finds that her ex absolutely refuses to break up. She can only run away to Lujia Town. Life in the countryside is generally peaceful and carefree.

Except for...

The whispers that occasionally come from the air, though when she turns around, there's no one there.

The lively troupe performing on the village green on the night of the Ghost Festival.

The neighbor's dog suddenly howling in the middle of the night when no one's around.

The married couple who die the next day in gruesome circumstances, and the child scared witless.

And the fact that she just learned yesterday that her ex-boyfriend is dead, yet seems to have seen him again...

All right, so much for a peaceful life. Better run.

Romance blurb:

My boyfriend really came back as a ghost to find me.

The boyfriend in other people's eyes: an aloof, brilliant, rich and handsome guy who's madly in love with his girlfriend.

The boyfriend in Cui Rong's eyes: bad-tempered, jealous, petty, and saddled with a whole family of difficult relatives. Aside from his face and his money, he has no good qualities.

After her boyfriend's mother, an elegant rich wife, comes to see her once again and hands her a check, Cui Rong, who's used to living like a couch potato, really doesn't want to get involved in the family's rich-people drama. She takes the money, walks away, and breaks up with him.

Her bad-tempered, petty boyfriend is furious and threatens her:

"There's no way we're breaking up."

"I'll haunt you even after I die!"

Cui Rong doesn't take him seriously and makes a clean getaway.

Three months later, she receives news of her ex-boyfriend's death.

His mother, no longer haughty, begs her to attend the funeral.

Cui Rong politely refuses. That family has too much baggage, and she really doesn't want to get dragged back into it.

That night, for the first time, her ex-boyfriend appears in her dream.

He smiles brightly at her, but what he says is a little frightening:

"I really did come back as a ghost to find you."

A dazed heroine + a dazed ghost boyfriend (who will come back to life later)

1. Both are each other's first and only, happy ending.

2. Entirely fictional setting. A long fantasy adventure in a modern urban and rural world of the supernatural, with folk customs and high-tech inventions I've made up.

3. Not a wish-fulfillment story. You can't feel triumphant when you run into ghosts every day. The heroine is an ordinary person from the start and will be chased by all kinds of ghosts, monsters, and villains. The hero isn't a background character, but he's very much a sidekick. The leads are each other's most important people!!!

---Senior Brother, You Wouldn't Want Anyone to Know You Have a Tail, Would You?---

A top-ranked, competitive junior sister * an insecure furnace-body senior brother who brings his wife good fortune

After a car accident, Song Zhaoyue opens her eyes in the world of a cultivation novel.

The good news: the body she's transmigrated into has exceptional talent.

The bad news: she's a minor cannon-fodder character who insists on coming first and stealing the spotlight, so the lovesick villainous male lead secretly kills her.

The lie-flat System she's bound to comforts her: It's okay, we can just stay far away from him!

Song Zhaoyue: No, it's because I'm not strong enough!!!

Since she's transmigrated here and everything is set in motion, she can only face the challenge head-on.

She'll work hard at cultivation, trample the lovesick male villain underfoot, punch the arrogant chosen one, take first place, become a respected Sage, marry a rich and handsome man, and reach the peak of life!!!

Everything goes smoothly, except for the last part.

The handsome senior brother Song Zhaoyue likes is aloof and gentle, keeping her at arm's length and completely captivating her, but their relationship never progresses any further.

Later, she accidentally discovers her senior brother's little secret...

The fluffy feel of the tail in her hand is utterly captivating, and an unnatural flush spreads across her senior brother's jade-like face.

"Senior Brother, you wouldn't want anyone else to know you have a tail, would you?"

Ha! That last goal can come true too. Now she can do whatever she wants with Senior Brother!
