Why Read This?

A wildly entertaining danmei that blends comedic horror with obsessive devotion. Wang Xiaomie waking up as a thousand-year-old corpse in wedding clothes next to a yandere immortal warrior is the kind of unhinged premise that just works.

Synopsis

A cozy coffin for two becomes one recluse’s reality when he wakes up in the frigid body of a thousand-year-old corpse! Can he find his footing in this new body? Even then, can he survive the passionate doting of his handsome—and quite unhinged—coffinmate? Reclusive gay virgin Wang Xiaomie has just awakened inside the body of a thousand-year-old corpse dressed in ornate wedding finery. Stranger yet, he finds himself sharing a coffin with immortal warrior Wen Fengjin, who has spent the last millennia patiently waiting for his dead lover to return. Constantly hungry with nothing to eat and only a magic peach blossom tree to keep his heart pumping, Wang Xiaomie must now navigate being trapped in an ornate mausoleum, undead, all while dodging pesky grave robbers. To make matters worse, he must also keep a lid on his growing attraction to this hot–albeit completely unhinged–immortal who will do anything, even kill, to keep his beloved safe. Hijinks ensue in this twisted yandere tale filled with mistaken identities, dastardly plots, grave robbers, and more!
