This is a story of a thirty-year-old female ghost who fell in love with a man in his forties—a tale marked by an age difference of over a decade and the separation of the living and the dead.
Hong Xiu was the name Xu Sha had chosen for herself. She felt that the name "Xu Sha" was too ordinary; "Hong Xiu" suited her ghostly temperament—though, her appearance remained as plain as before.
Originally, Xishan had taken Hong Xiu to bid her parents a final farewell, intending afterward to take her to see the Ghost, to be reborn.
However, Hong Xiu stubbornly refused; she didn't want to drink the Grandma Meng Soup, hoping to keep her memories intact and to fully enjoy herself before deciding when to seek reincarnation.
