The Tenth Year My Wife Has Hated Me [Nonhuman]

[Evil God]

Yue Gu Nan and Shang Fuzhong had known each other for ten years and been married for seven. They had done everything lovers do, and Yue Gu Nan was well aware of the terrifying, uncanny things about Shang Fuzhong.

The strange movement beneath his skin when they kissed, the perfectly measured curve of his smile, his unfailing precision to the second when it came to time and tasks. Yue Gu Nan carefully taught him the standards of a good husband, keeping their relationship in a delicate balance.

To relieve her loneliness and fear, Yue Gu Nan carried on an unspoken flirtation with her secretary, until Shang Fuzhong died in a car accident.

Without his body, Shang Fuzhong returned home and continued protecting Yue Gu Nan from the encroachment of the uncanny. But one day, he suddenly remembered everything that had happened before his death.

The wife he'd cared for, loved, and worshipped was a cold-hearted, fickle, promiscuous woman.

[Aggrieved Ghost]

Yue Gu Nan and Shang Fuzhong had known each other since childhood. Shang Fuzhong treasured her like a precious jewel, raising the spoiled Yue Gu Nan as both a father and an older brother.

But Yue Gu Nan thought he was too poor, so she dumped him and climbed the social ladder with someone else.

Shang Fuzhong died full of resentment and did not reincarnate. Instead, he appeared in every dream she had while asleep.

He tainted the people around her and used their eyes to stare at her in place of his own shattered eyes.

[God of Light]

Yue Gu Nan was a fake saintess. To stay in the holy church, she tricked the real holy son into lying and leaving, promising with absolute certainty that she'd leave the church with him.

But the next day, she used her authority as saintess to send him to the border and arrange his death.

She thought she'd covered her tracks perfectly.

But as the church praised the God of Light in the temple, the god, who hadn't answered the church for hundreds of years, suddenly responded to her.

The divine descent filled everyone with excitement. Only Yue Gu Nan knelt on the ground, trembling and drenched in cold sweat.

Because that face was exactly like the dead holy son's.

*

1. No chasing the husband to a crematorium. Even after the male lead dies and returns, he still takes care of the female lead.

2. I wrote this because I like combining the wayward lover's redemption trope with nonhuman characters.

3. The female lead has some pathetic moments. This isn't a feel-good power fantasy, and there's a little forced love.

Theme: A prodigal who returns is worth more than gold
