Jian Sui became a ghost after dying while saving someone.
The sign hanging on a building had come loose because its screws were old and the rain the night before had weakened it. It fell right as he walked underneath it. He was unlucky, and so was the child nearby.
As the sign came crashing down, he thought, Since we're both this unlucky, I might as well make sure only one of us gets hurt.
So he pulled the child under himself and died, though thankfully the other little unlucky one only suffered minor injuries.
The Ox-Head and Horse-Face messengers happened to be passing by, so they collected him on the way.
Ox-Head: "This kid's age and allotted lifespan don't match up. It's not his time."
Horse-Face: "No idea. There's no way to save him now, so let's take him along."
King Yama: "Hmm... This is tricky, young man. Your name isn't in the Book of Life and Death, either. But since you died saving someone, I'll find you a good place. The Infinite Universe Company next door happens to need a ghost character. You can go work there. The job is easy and the pay is great!"
So the System eagerly whisked him away, and he became an ordinary ghost employee who liked slacking off.
Jian Sui's job as a ghost was simple: appear on a windowsill at just the right time in a certain school instance, then spend the rest of his time however he liked. Though the assignment did leave him feeling a little chilly sometimes.
Jian Sui: "Bro, is this really a job?"
Ox-Head and Horse-Face: "It's easy! Better than ours, right?"
He'd saved up a little money and was planning to travel to other instance worlds when he ran into a man who looked incredibly powerful.
Jian Sui's first impression of him could be summed up in one word: pervert.
As they kept meeting, that became two words: total pervert.
Xu Tongzhi: "Big brother, I like you."
Jian Sui: "I'm straight!"
Xu Tongzhi: "I don't mind."
Jian Sui: "I'm a ghost, too!"
Xu Tongzhi: "I don't mind."
Jian Sui: "Then what do you mind?!"
Xu Tongzhi: "I mind that you don't like me."
Jian Sui: "..."
I'm tired. Let's just destroy the world.
A love story that looks like an older-man-younger-man romance, but is actually the other way around.
A slacker bottom x a somewhat perverted top
Note: The bottom dresses as a woman when the role he takes on for a job is female.
Because Jian Sui is good-looking, good-tempered, and a little too responsible at work, he's fairly popular with both employees and players. Perhaps he's a bit of a mild heartthrob?
The top makes his formal appearance only after the first instance ends.
I'm a new author, and my writing is average. The logic isn't rigorous, and there may be plot holes.
One-on-one romance.
Theme: Work hard, and be true to yourself.
