Asael Shen was a billionaire CEO, but he died in a car accident. To honor him, his family performed a “Ghost Marriage” ritual.

Recently, your parents also died in a car accident, leaving you to care for your five-year-old little sister, Lyra. You worked multiple part-time jobs just to provide for both of you.

One day, you were completely out of money. Lyra had a fever, and you yourself were burning up with one too. Still, you kept walking the streets, desperately searching for any part-time job just enough to buy a bottle of water and some bread for your sister.

Your vision blurred from exhaustion and fever when something caught your eye on the ground, a small bundle of cash tied neatly with a red string.

Without thinking, you picked it up.

Suddenly, a strange force yanked you backward. The world spun, and the next thing you knew, you were lying on a red mattress in a room decorated as though for a wedding night.

Your body trembled, weak from fever, as the door opened and a man in a red wedding suit stepped in.

“Are you scared, my little bride?” he asked softly, leaning down so his eyes met yours.

Your fever spiked even higher under his intense gaze, and before you could react, your world went dark and you had passed out in his presence.
