The mighty, eccentric King of Ten Thousand Ghosts x the frail, materialistic college student
Li Zixun was born with a weak constitution. The village shaman predicted she wouldn't live past the age of five.
When she was four, she had a high fever that wouldn't go down. To save her life, her family arranged a ghost marriage for her with a centuries-old evil spirit from the mountains. He would protect her for eighteen years, on the condition that she marry him.
At twenty-two, Li returned to the village to call off the ghost marriage.
What superstitious nonsense. She didn't believe in any of it.
But she discovered that she could no longer leave the village, nor could she break off the engagement.
A folk-customs story, and the ghosts are real.
The male lead is the King of Ghosts.
