My Roommate Is a Thousand-Year-Old Female Ghost

Lin Wan earns 3,800 yuan a month and is so broke she has to rent a haunted house.

On her first night there, she sees a ghost.

The female ghost floats beside her bed and rolls her eyes. “You only make 3,800 yuan a month, and you still dare to complain about me? When I was alive, my family owned three hundred mu of land!”

The ghost is Shen Zhaoning, a haughty, sharp-tongued noblewoman from a thousand years ago. She makes a deal: help her investigate her death, teach Lin Wan how to ward off evil, and split the earnings fifty-fifty.

Lin Wan: “Deal!”

By day, she's an underpaid office worker making 3,800 yuan a month. By night, she's a rising star in the supernatural world.

Her first exorcism earns her a thousand yuan. Shen Zhaoning holds out her hand. “Give me five hundred.”

“Ever heard of paying for knowledge?” the ghost says, completely unabashed.

Lin Wan: “You're a thousand-year-old ghost. How are you even stingier than me?”

Shen Zhaoning sneers. “My family was in business when I was alive. Ever heard of honoring a contract?”

Later, Lin Wan takes on a big job. The client is a handsome man.

The moment Shen Zhaoning sees him, her expression changes.

Lin Wan asks, “You know him?”

Shen Zhaoning is silent for a long time.

“He was the man I was supposed to marry in my previous life.”

Lin Wan: “...So you're a ghost now and he's alive. Is this some kind of unfinished romance between a human and a ghost?”

Shen Zhaoning: “Shut up.”

This is the cohabitation story of a broke office worker and her haughty noblewoman ghost roommate. It's not scary, just a light comedy, with laughs, tears, sisterly affection, and a tragic love spanning a thousand years.

“You're my roommate. Roommates are family.”
