“Who wants your betrothal gift! This marriage is forced upon me, and I won’t get married even if I die!” Liang Liang exploded like a firecracker, “Tomorrow, your master will open the coffin and return the burial items. By then, he can also retrieve you.”
“Don’t you want me?” Jiang Jiang’s voice carried a hint of grievance.
“I…” The firecracker suddenly deflated, adjusting his wet clothes, “What’s with your tone? My coffin is only this big, and you sleeping next to me would block my coffin lid when you come and go.”
“I don’t mind.”
“But I do mind, and why did you choose drowning as your method of death? Sleeping next to me during the day, you made me all wet. If you really want a companion after death, you could be buried nearby, and we could visit each other.”
There was silence from the person behind.
“Do you hear me? It’s not that I dislike you or anything, after all, you helped me a lot today…”
“Then do me a favor too,” Jiang Jiang interrupted after a moment of silence.
“Tell me.”
“Tomorrow night, bring up this matter again.”
Liang Liang was taken aback and wanted to say something, but the cold, wet sensation behind him disappeared all of a sudden. He turned his head, finding nothing but an empty and dark little grove.
He didn’t know why he felt a strange sensation, as if his words had hurt Jiang Jiang. He should have been indifferent, but now he couldn’t help but care.
Should they really get married?
No, Liang Liang vigorously shook his head. His happily single life would come to an end if that happened.
Liang Liang licked the taste of the chicken leg from his lips and looked at the thick stack of paper money left behind.
It’s the rent, not a betrothal gift. It’s the rent, not a betrothal gift. It’s the rent, not a betrothal gift.
Liang Liang silently repeated it three times and swiftly tucked the paper money into his own pocket.
Hehe, taking advantage when there’s a chance, you bastard.

“In fact, being married and having a s*xual life isn’t bad either,” the ghosts in the graveyard analyzed with him. “You died so young, you haven’t experienced that pleasure, have you?”
Liang Liang slowly widened his eyes in astonishment.

Because Liang Liang agreed to Jiang Jiang’s request, he didn’t mention moving out all day long.
He had been waiting for the sun to set, for the night to fall. As soon as the time came, he jumped into the coffin to find Jiang Jiang. “Move, move, move! You move—”
With a rustle, a crow flapped its wings in the dark night, swooping down and interrupting Liang Liang’s intention to disturb Jiang Jiang.
“What are you doing!” Liang Liang, who was about to get down to business, frowned.
“Phone call, phone call. Caw-Caw-Caw.”
“Answer,” Liang Liang reluctantly propped his head up.
Times were changing, and due to the massive increase in population, the underworld became busier. As a result, some deceased big shots went to the underworld and created a Yin-Yang machinery ghost messenger service.
There even appeared animal-shaped telephones.
“Hello, this is the Civil Affairs Bureau of the Underworld. You are currently listening to a call from Crow Number Thirteen, the customer service for Yin-Yang messengers,” the crow perched on a branch, tilting its head and speaking in an emotionless customer service tone, “Hello, Mr. Liang Liang? Here, we are updating your registration status.”
The customer service voice continued, “Registration status change one: New addition, husband Jiang Jiang. The Civil Affairs Bureau of the Underworld has established the Jiang-Jiang-Liang-Liang CP for you. You can choose to receive this title and receive a gift package from the underworld, containing one hundred thousand pieces of paper money, wishing the newlyweds a hundred years of happiness.”
“What, what, I didn’t register?” Liang Liang looked bewildered.
“Registration status change two: Congratulations on achieving the achievement of Obsession Fulfilled – Finding your lover from a past life. You can choose to return to the underworld and enter the reincarnation cycle system, or you can choose to continue staying in the Yin-Yang boundary.”
“Registration status change three: Your husband Jiang Jiang has deposited 100,000,000 yuan of paper money into your account. Enjoy it.”
The crow politely lowered its head and flapped its wings, flying back into the darkness.
Liang Liang couldn’t digest so much information at once and scratched his head in place.
When did he register a husband? And when did he find his lover from a past life? But… Jiang Jiang actually deposited one billion yuan for him!!!
Liang Liang was so excited that his face twisted.
It turns out that the little Taoist priest has so much money.
Beside the tombstone, Jiang Jiang squeezed his wet Daoist robe, wringing out the water, and slowly drifted over. “I can answer your first question.”
“What?”
“According to the regulations of the underworld, after twenty-four hours of being in the same coffin as a married couple, the underworld registers it,” Jiang Jiang made sure there was no water left and approached Liang Liang, “In theory, we can already start our married life.”
“Twenty-four hours?”
“Yes.”
“So, when you said last night for me to bring up this matter again tonight?” Liang Liang finally understood.
“Yes.”
“Hey! Jiang, you bastard, die!” Liang Liang pounced on him.
