Paper Effigies Bear the Coffin, and the Crown Princess Is Worshipped by Ten Thousand Ghosts

[Omnipotent Heroine] [Feel-Good Story] [Mysticism] [Marriage First, Love Later] [The Husband Chases His Wife to the Crematorium]

Ye Chenke is the biggest pawnbroker in the Six Realms. She accepts anything, especially lifespan, feelings, fate, fortune... the most valuable and least visible things you possess.

But Ye Chenke has had enough of living a life that is neither human, ghost, immortal, nor demon. So she raids a wedding coffin and arrives on the final day of Nan Wujin's lifespan, intending to buy his fate-defying destiny and investigate her own origins.

In every lifetime, Nan Wujin has died before turning twenty, and he can never marry a living person. In this life, not only has his imperial father stolen his lifespan, but he has also forced a dead bride on him for a ghost marriage. He's the very picture of a devastatingly handsome tragic hero.

The wedding coffin opens, and the bride arrives.

But Ye Chenke never expected that, after doing business across the Six Realms for so long, she'd finally meet someone unwilling to pawn anything.

"You want to buy my fate?" Nan Wujin leaned against the edge of the coffin, blood trickling from the corner of his lips as he smiled nonchalantly. "Not for sale."

"I'm the only one who can extend your life."

"Not for sale."

"You have just one day left."

"Still not for sale."

Ye Chenke looked at him and, for the first time, felt that this deal might not be hers to call.

Still, a puppy-like crown prince more than a thousand years younger than her was worth teasing, even if she couldn't make a deal with him.

She never imagined that later, he would be the one chasing after her, eager to give himself to her for free.

But she shook her head:

"I've had my fun. I don't want you anymore."
