What to Do When You're Destined to Be the Lord of Hell's Wife

The tyrannical King Ning Fen was awakened after a thousand years of sleep, then became the King of Hell.

The first thing Ning Fen did after taking office was sign the Book of Life and Death, only to find that his writing left no mark on it.

It turned out that Ning Fen had killed countless people in life and carried too much murderous intent. To keep him from killing indiscriminately, he needed to find a partner to balance him out before he could take up his duties.

“Ridiculous. I’m the King of Hell. Where am I supposed to find a partner?” Ning Fen said furiously, staring at the terrified clerk who looked ready to faint.

The next second, with a soft poof, a photo appeared out of thin air in Ning Fen’s hand. The man in it was beautiful and alluring.

Ning Fen: ...

The clerk dropped to his knees. “You can’t defy fate, Your Majesty!”

Looking at the disheveled, suggestively posed man in the photo, Ning Fen smiled ominously.

Destined to be? Setting gender aside for now, this man is frivolous and debauched. He must be taught a proper lesson.

Nan Xin, an unlucky office worker who is afraid of ghosts.

Ever since he accidentally printed out a sexy selfie and immediately burned it in a guilty panic, Nan Xin has noticed that something about his life seems off.

For example, one moment he’s thirsty in the middle of the night, and the next, a glass of water appears right beside him.

Or when he goes to the park with a blind date, the other person gets chased and bitten by every stray dog in the park.

And when he makes plans with friends to go to a gay bar, whichever one they pick goes out of business.

Not to mention the little white flowers that often appear outside his door, still covered in dewdrops!

And the graffiti along his commute to work has all changed from cute cartoon style to an eerie black, white, and gray underworld aesthetic, with messages that hit like a thunderclap:

“Black and white are the perfect match, and love between the living and the dead is the true path.”

“True love cannot be kept apart by the boundary between yin and yang.”

“A good man would never be alone with any man but his husband, including when working overtime...”

Even his dreams are getting more and more outrageous. In them, he spends the whole night making out with a handsome, cold-faced man radiating the aura of death.

Nan Xin, who is all nerves but has a serious craving, is both terrified and tempted by his dreams.

Finally, after being put through too much, he coolly says goodbye to the man in his dream.

But the next day at work, the new CEO, who supposedly radiates the icy aura of death, has exactly the same face as the man from his dream!

The new CEO parts a crowd of trembling executives and walks up to Nan Xin, who is serving tea and water. Looking down at him with a cold presence and deep-set eyes, he asks, “What did you say last night? You wanted to walk away after having your fun without taking responsibility?”

Nan Xin: ???

Wait, can someone explain what’s going on?!

Please note:

1. A stuffy but jealous King of Hell seme x a silly, ghost-fearing office worker uke, a fated underworld romance where they are mutually drawn to each other.

2. The seme thinks he’s teaching the frivolous little idiot a lesson, but he’s actually jealous as hell.

3. The pretty-face-loving uke spends every day bouncing between being scared of ghosts and being dazzled by handsome ghosts.

4. A light and sweet little story, not scary at all (I’m the coward who gets scared watching Detective Conan!), fundamentally a romance.
