[Decisive Incense-Bearer x Beautiful, Older, Delicate Husband]
Liu Song, a recent college graduate, never imagined that simply going abroad to visit family would set her on an entirely different path in life.
In a single night, everything changed. The only family she had left in this world was brutally murdered, and she was forced to flee.
In a foreign land full of danger, two people who were both being hunted crossed paths.
It turned out that ghosts really did exist, as did people with mysterious powers.
Armed with an incense stick that grants her mysterious powers, Liu Song searches for corpses, summons spirits, and hunts for treasure by burning incense. With a useless female ghost who only knows how to dig out her own eyeballs and play with them on her left, and a beautiful, "ghost-fearing" husband on her right, she sets off in search of the truth.
Her delicate husband: "It doesn't matter if the road ahead is dark. I'll always be by your side."
Liu Song: "Then why are you hiding?"
Her delicate husband: "T-There's a ghost! Big sister, I'm so scared~"
Liu Song, looking exasperated: "You're an old man even older than me. Why are you pretending to be young? If you're scared of ghosts, don't come along. Go home and cook."
Her delicate husband: "No way. I have to protect you."
Liu Song kicks him away: "How am I supposed to catch ghosts when you're clinging to me like this?"
The male lead's perspective:
Life is a journey of self-cultivation, and everyone has to walk their own path. That's Cheng Che's life motto. All relationships between people have their limits, and there's no need to change the path you intended to take for the sake of those ties. All he wants is to be a well-behaved rich kid and live a peaceful, comfortable life. Giving up that peaceful life for someone and putting himself in danger for their sake? Absolutely impossible. He'd have to be out of his mind to do something like that.
So why, later on, does he follow Liu Song down such a dangerous road of revenge, with no idea what lies ahead? Is it to fulfill his godfather's dying wish? Or for the heart he gave away without even knowing when?
He already knows the answer.
[Female lead: A delicate beauty on the surface, but underneath, she's got nothing to lose and will fight to the bitter end!]
