* One-on-one romance, happy ending, told equally from both perspectives
* Not very scary, a sweet everyday story with a supernatural setting
* Also known as "Without All Those Ghosts, I Wouldn't Have a Wife"
Gu Anle was born on the Ghost Festival. Ever since she was born, she had a minor illness every three days and a major one every five, so the hospital became her second home.
When she was seven, she saw a ghost for the first time.
A little girl covered in blood wailed in the middle of the road, then suddenly turned around and lunged at her, baring a mouthful of fangs. Terrified, Gu Anle clung to her mother's neck and burst into tears.
After that, she spent less time in the hospital and more time in temples. Changing her protective charms three times a month did not help at all.
Gu Anle tried to get used to it, but how could anyone get used to living in a horror movie every day?
Things took a turn when she got into university. Word had it that her roommate came from a family of ghost hunters. Nobody else believed it, but Gu Anle was overjoyed. The moment they met, she clung to the other woman's leg and cried, "Ahhh!! Master, save me!!!"
Shi Ling had no interest in inheriting the family business. In this age of science and information technology, what could ghosts and gods possibly offer? She would rather build an impressive resume and get a job at a major company.
No matter how earnestly her elders tried to persuade her, nothing worked.
That is, until she started university.
She had barely made it into the dorm when a tearful beauty rushed toward her. One, two, three, four hungry little ghosts were wandering around the beauty. "..."
Where had this walking disaster come from?
After that, Gu Anle followed Shi Ling everywhere she went.
She even insisted on cuddling in bed.
Shi Ling: "Aren't you doing fine now?" Meaning, no ghosts are following you.
Gu Anle wrapped her arms around her. "I don't care. My bed is cold, and yours is warmer, big sister!"
Shi Ling: "I'm a year younger than you."
Gu Anle grew even more confident. "Then you can come warm up big sister!"
Later on...
Shi Ling climbed into bed in the dark of her own accord, put a hand on Gu Anle's waist, and murmured, "Big sister's bed is so cold. I'll come warm it up for you..."
