A Guide to Taming the Ghost King

[Warm on the outside, cool within, flirtatious beauty top x Cold on the outside, warm within, loyal ghost king bottom]

My ex-boyfriend is dead, but not entirely.

Yan Qingyu has a secret: his very dead ex-boyfriend, Zuo Yangui, visits him in his dreams every night.

In his dreams, Zuo Yangui kisses the corner of his eye and frightens him with tales of vengeful ghosts.

But when he wakes, the kitchen is filled with the aroma of sweet-and-sour ribs, and the picture frame he broke is good as new.

Then, in the mirror of a haunted house, he sees Zuo Yangui with bloodied silver hair, crushing an evil ghost's head with his bare hands before turning to smile tenderly at him.

“Qingyu, I'm more useful dead than alive. Don't be sad.”

Later, Yan Qingyu learns the truth:

Zuo Yangui learned to cook for him, swallowed evil ghosts for him, and hid his mediumship so he could die in his place.

The most ridiculous part was that on the day they broke up, Yan Qingyu had sneered, “Love is nothing but lust at first sight.”
