The Biggest Taboo in Our Line of Work Is Falling for a Client

CP: An actor-turned-emperor who died unexpectedly as the gong, and a mortician who’s sick of being pestered by him and wants to hurry up and “send him off” as the shou. ※※※※※ Writing a blurb is really hard, so here’s the opening outline instead ↓ [Opening outline ↓] After graduating, Ling Chen rode the wave of civil-service recruitment and successfully landed a stable government job, becoming a proud… mortician at the XX Funeral Center. One night while he was on duty, he received an urgent job: a “VIP” needed to be buried immediately. The VIP’s family was generous, handing over a five-figure red envelope. This VIP was certainly no ordinary person. Several burly bodyguards stood guard outside the mourning hall. Visitors had to be searched at the door, hand over all electronic devices, and sign a confidentiality agreement… Ling Chen thought, “This ‘VIP’ is already gone, but he’s still making such a fuss.” Just as Ling Chen’s patience was about to run out, he finally saw the client lying in the ice coffin. It was the award-winning actor He Jinzhao! Ling Chen was a fan of He Jinzhao. He never imagined that one day he would have to personally “send off” his idol. Ling Chen gently brushed the colorless lips of the person in the coffin with a lip brush and murmured, “Does this count as following a celebrity all the way to the crematorium?” As soon as the words left his mouth, a clear, ethereal male voice suddenly sounded behind him: “My fellow fan, this is my first time holding a fan meeting at a funeral home, too.” ※※※※※ The character design for Xiao Ling was authorized by the artist Huagou~!
