I Woke Up to Find My Ghost Husband Clinging to Me

After graduating from college, Jiang Chenmo became a full-time writer specializing in tales of strange spirits, ghosts, and the supernatural.

Lately, though, she has been having the same strange dream.

In it, a handsome man in ancient robes stands holding a lamp, his features so exquisitely beautiful they take her breath away.

He always calls her "A Mo" in a gentle voice, gazes at her with tender longing, and says that he has searched for her desperately for hundreds of years.

Inspired by the dream, she writes a new book, and it unexpectedly becomes a huge hit. Countless readers are captivated by the mysterious, devoted "Young Master Yu" and ask if he is based on a real person.

Every time, Jiang Chenmo can only say helplessly: It's entirely fictional! Any resemblance is purely coincidental, and I accept no responsibility!

Then one night, she falls asleep while working on a deadline. When she wakes, all is silent, except for a faintly glowing blue lamp on her desk.

Young Master Yu is afraid she'll catch a chill, so he gently drapes a thin blanket over her. His blue robes and familiar features are exactly like the man in her dreams.

Holding the blue lamp, he gives her a slight smile. Terrified, Chenmo runs back to her room, but he walks right through the door and closes in on her, step by step.

"A Mo, I've come."

The following is from the male lead's point of view:

When Yu Zishu was twenty, his family was convicted of "possessing banned books" and sentenced to execution in its entirety.

He hanged himself in prison, but his obsession bound his soul to the world. He watched helplessly as his fiancée, bedridden with illness, vomited blood upon hearing the news. Afterward, she refused all medicine and treatment, determined to follow him to the afterlife with her own fading soul.

He refused to cross over and refused to forget. He wandered the world for hundreds of years, with a tattered copy of Strange Tales from a Chinese Studio and a "Dream-Entering Lamp" as his only anchors.

At last, when he found her, she had been reborn as a storyteller and had even written their past into a book, moving countless readers to tears.

But she laughed and told people, "What Young Master Yu? It was just a dream."

He appeared with his lamp and draped a coat over her shoulders, but she fled in terror. He had no choice but to pass through the door and seize her wrist.

"A Mo, this time it's not a dream."

"This copy of Strange Tales is missing a few stories. They hold the unfinished causes between us, the fate we never continued, and the tribulation we never saw through."

"And you... aren't getting away."
