I'm Being Haunted by My 'Best Friend's' Ghost

An Zhaoxin transmigrates into an unfinished occult novel and is born with yin-yang eyes. With wandering spirits everywhere and danger at every turn, she is terrified of ghosts and decides to find someone powerful to cling to if she wants to survive.

Like her mysterious roommate, Shao Yi, whom even ghosts fear.

Her roommate is very resistant at first, but gradually lets her get close after all her efforts. Their relationship grows closer and closer until they are practically inseparable. Then one day, out of the blue...

Shao Yi dies.

In a world overrun by ghosts, Shao Yi is the undisputed strongest weapon of the Xuan'an Bureau, a ghost-slaying powerhouse. But his immense strength makes others wary of him, and his ability to let his soul leave his body makes them fear him.

Those feelings reach their peak when he is consumed by the obsessions of evil spirits and often loses control of his mind.

So at first, the girl's deliberate attempts to get close to him only annoy him. But she is such a social butterfly that she always finds a way to strike up a conversation.

At first, it is:

"The fried rice with egg at the second cafeteria is great. Want me to treat you?"

"Your earrings are so pretty. Where did you get them?"

Then later:

"Can I borrow your jacket? I'm not wearing a bra... and things are showing..."

"Isn't it totally normal for best friends to share a bed? You were cold, so I cuddled you all night. Thoughtful of me, right? Do you love me?"

Shao Yi: ...

From resistance to attachment, from rejection to surrender. Later, even as the corpse he possesses grows more and more rotten, he cannot bear to leave her. Then someone starts pursuing her, and she cheerfully shares with him: "Great features, eight-pack abs. Do you think I should give him a try?"

A rage he has never felt before instantly shreds the inside of the corpse he possesses. His soul burns, the pain nearly driving him to his death...

Try him? How?

Try me.

An Zhaoxin is being haunted by a ghost.

Sticky, lingering gazes. Damp, chilly air. Her phone unlocking on its own. And increasingly frequent episodes of sleep paralysis.

She is exhausted and on edge every day, growing more and more frustrated. A male friend who is a half-immortal notices how listless she is and suggests, "Why don't we get a place together?"

An Zhaoxin hesitates and says she'll think about it.

But that very night, as soon as she closes her eyes, she is pinned down by a ghost.

The presence clinging to her is several times damper than usual, and she cannot even move her fingers. As her body trembles and she sinks into shame and panic, a boy's hoarse, furious voice suddenly sounds beside her ear:

"An Zhaoxin, don't you dare."

A chatty, outgoing, determined-to-survive ray of sunshine x an aloof, gloomy, cold, and obsessive boy

Reading guide:

1. One-on-one romance, both leads are sexually inexperienced and faithful.

2. The male lead possesses other people's bodies early in the story.

3. Occult ghost-hunting setting, with the plot and romance given equal weight.
