Novel List

Liang Xinxin was an abandoned child. At the age of eighteen, her foster mother handed her an address and told her to go to Hong Kong to find her biological grandparents.

On her way there, the ferry capsized.

Just as she thought she was doomed, a hand pulled her out of the water.

The one who saved her was a beautiful woman in a cheongsam, high heels, and smoking a cigarette. The fiery red lips of the woman, standing against the backdrop of exploding flames, left an indelible impression on her.

To repay her savior, Liang Xinxin offered to work as her maid.

However, the woman tossed her a wad of cash and said, “Help me put on a show. Some people from Hesantang are threatening to cut off my son’s fingers. You just need to pretend to be his wife and cry loudly, claiming that your husband is dead. If they want to cut off his fingers, they can do it in the underworld!”

Liang Xinxin: ???

Alright, a life-saving favor must be repaid!

She changed into mourning clothes and cried her heart out, convincing Hesantang’s enemies. They decided to postpone their vengeance until after the “funeral.”

But why, when she woke up, was she sitting in a wedding car?

This was not going according to plan!

Liang Xinxin banged on the car door, “Let me out!”

From the front seat, a familiar voice reassured her, “Don’t be afraid. My son works for the Office of the Living and the Dead. He asked me to bring you over so he can see you. If you’re willing, you can marry him. If not, I’ll give you some money to settle down.”

Initially planning to just play along and leave, Liang Xinxin was stunned by how handsome the man was. By the time their kids were old enough to run errands, she still hadn’t figured out how she ended up agreeing to the marriage.

Now she spends her days meeting her husband in the realms of the living and the dead, which is quite horrifying! But it’s too late to regret.

Look, he’s off to another night shift!

Sigh, left alone at home, she had no choice but to join her mother-in-law in card games.

Accidentally, she won a shop.

Accidentally, she won a building.

Accidentally…

By the time she realized, she had become a feared landlord in Hong Kong, ruling both the living and the dead!

And so, Liang Xinxin’s life became like this:

“Hello, Landlady, can you check if there’s space in the underworld? My son is so lazy; he says he’d rather die than work. Maybe let him move there?”

“Hello, Landlady, are there any cheap rental flats in Kowloon? My late wife came back to see me, and I can’t let her find me homeless.”

“Hello…”
