The System promises him a chance to be reborn and a ten-billion-yuan bonus if he completes his missions.
[Bring good fortune to your comatose husband after his car accident]
Le Yu is sold by his adoptive parents to bring good fortune to a comatose husband who was injured in a car accident.
Her husband lies motionless in bed, neither alive nor dead. His family consists of a mother who cries all day, a younger brother in high school with a bad case of chuunibyou, and a nonconformist younger sister in middle school who’s being led around by a blonde-haired punk.
Fortunately, although her husband can’t move, he’s just her type. Using the excuse of bringing him good fortune, getting to touch his cute face, hold his hand, and kiss his lips is pretty nice.
What he doesn’t know is that her comatose husband’s soul has separated from his body and is always following her.
At first, he’s shocked by Le Yu’s kisses and touches, then angry, then embarrassed, and then
Comatose husband: Why didn’t he kiss me today?

Le Yu transmigrates into the disciple chosen to bring good fortune. Looking at the gloomy, dispirited heir who has lost all his cultivation, he simply shoves a hoe into his hands. “You’re crippled, not dead. Go turn over the herb field by the gate.”
Under Le Yu’s pressure, the heir turns the herb field every day, tastes medicinal herbs, and takes medicinal baths. Day after day, he discovers that his meridians are slowly repairing themselves and that spiritual energy is growing in his dantian again.
Just as he’s overjoyed and wants to tell Le Yu, Le Yu’s childhood sweetheart suddenly shows up, saying he’s taking him away to elope.
The heir: ?
[Bring good fortune to the short-lived scholar husband]
For other people, getting married is a happy occasion. For Le Yu, it’s a funeral.

Le Yu thinks he’s about to become a widower, but after his husband dies, the man is reborn and unexpectedly becomes a hired hand in his household. He stays by Le Yu’s side, watching him manage the home, send his younger siblings to school, and help the villagers grow prosperous, until he becomes the local good-luck charm.

The Imperial Marshal is seriously injured while defending against an insectoid invasion. His body falls into a deep coma, but his soul inhabits an orange cat. The cat’s owner is his little wife, Le Yu, whom he was given in marriage to bring him good fortune because no one dared marry her due to rumors that she was “too strong-willed to die.”
Transformed into a cat, the marshal spends his days being petted and having his chin scratched by his little wife, enjoying life immensely.
Until one day, Le Yu parts his tail. “Sweetie, your balls are a little big. You should get neutered.”
