Ghost Matchmaking: Ghost Emperor Husband and Campus Queen Wife

Meanwhile.

With the cautionary tales of the Great Cold Country and the Sun Country before them,

the viewers from the remaining countries no longer held any expectations for the appearance of their own marital partners.

’At the very least, they can’t be uglier than those two, right?’

The full visage of Piao Dagen and the Kappa... even on the dark web, they would be considered mind-blowing.

They might even get banned by the admins for being too disgusting!

The viewers from Dragon Country all felt a wave of despair.

[These supernatural beings are so powerful this time, why are they all so ugly!]

[Not only ugly, but with a terrible personality too. That thing just took the Great Cold Country’s 100 ghost coins right after they met.]

[Sigh... I wonder what our Dragon Country’s marital partner will look like.]

[Poor Yun Zhenyue, our Jiang University Beauty! Dammit!]

[She was voted number one among the top ten campus beauties from all the nearby schools!]

[Is a beautiful flower really going to be stuck in a pile of cow dung?]

[There’s nothing we can do. This is a Weird Marriage, after all.]

...

「At this moment.」

Yun Zhenyue had arrived at the door of Room 3007 on the third floor.

Her heart was pounding like a frightened deer.

She had never even held a boy’s hand in her entire life.

And now she was fast-forwarding straight to marriage.

It was too much!

The thought of having to call the person behind the door "husband"...

Yun Zhenyue couldn’t help but feel flustered all over.

Beside her were two large bags she had struggled to carry up.

Her treasures were inside!

Yun Zhenyue had already made up her mind.

’The old saying goes that a wife must follow her husband, for better or for worse. Even if my supernatural husband is weak and poor, as long as he truly cares for me, I believe our life together will only get better!’

’But then, what should I call him?’

’Just call him "husband" right away?’

’Isn’t that a bit rash?’

’Then what about "darling"?’

’Eek~ That’s a little embarrassing. I could never say that!’

’Formal "husband"? Or something old-fashioned?’

’This isn’t ancient times, so that’s not right either.’

Just as Yun Zhenyue was lowering her head, lost in thought,

CREAK~

The door opened.

"Gah!!!"

Yun Zhenyue was startled!

Her feet slipped!

And she immediately fell to the ground!

Her rear end planted itself firmly on the ground.

"Oww..." Yun Zhenyue rubbed her sore bottom, tears welling in her eyes.

Just then, a light chuckle reached her ears.

"Are you alright?"

"I’m... I’m fine..."

Yun Zhenyue answered dazedly, her mind still fuzzy, as a gentle hand took her arm and helped her to her feet.

"Th... Thank you!!"

Yun Zhenyue’s neck flushed red with embarrassment. She quietly thanked the stranger for his help, feeling utterly humiliated!

But in an instant, a sliver of her reason returned.

’This isn’t home. This isn’t reality.’

’Who was that speaking?’

Still dizzy, Yun Zhenyue looked up.

A man stood in the doorway, wearing a simple black sweater.

His features were well-defined, and his eyes seemed gentle under the dim yellow light. Long, thick eyelashes cast a shadow beneath them, highlighting a sense of depth and mystery.

His unique aura was incredibly captivating.

In a daze, Yun Zhenyue’s gaze froze.

’This is completely different from the supernatural being I imagined!’

’He’s way too handsome!’

’He looks to be about my age, too.’

Moreover, his face seemed extremely familiar to Yun Zhenyue, as if she had truly seen him somewhere before. It wasn’t just a passing glance, either; it felt like they had known each other for a long time, and she felt a natural urge to be close to him!

’If I ever lost my memory and someone told me this was my husband, I’d believe them!’

"So, so handsome..."

Yun Zhenyue murmured subconsciously.

"Hm?"

Gu Yuan looked at her, confused.

The young woman seemed to have been startled and looked a bit dazed. Her almond-shaped eyes were wide with a hint of confusion, making her naturally misty irises appear all the more crystal clear.

’It’s been a long time since I’ve seen her.’

Gu Yuan felt a little nostalgic.

Yun Zhenyue had been his childhood sweetheart in his past life.

Because the orphanage was very close to her home, the two had been friends since they were children, went to school together later on, and were very close.

’It’s a pity I died unexpectedly in my past life. I can’t imagine how heartbroken she must have been.’

’What a twisted fate, I suppose.’

’Separated by two worlds, and she still found her way to my door.’

After all, the first time Gu Yuan had met Yun Zhenyue was when she had secretly snuck into the orphanage and knocked on his door.

Gu Yuan’s eyes shifted slightly.

He saw the two large bags outside the door.

He could glimpse some electronics and even a case of her favorite Want Want milk drink.

Gu Yuan: "..."

’Did she pack up all her belongings?’

’I may not care for material possessions, but I still have plenty of things. I’m not that poor, am I?’

When she noticed Gu Yuan’s gaze,

Yun Zhenyue also looked at the two large bags. As if a butterfly had just brushed past the tip of her nose, she instinctively shrank back, her cheeks immediately flushing a light red.

"These are gifts... H... Husband."

She managed to say it, though with extreme difficulty and a stutter.

"Come in,"

Gu Yuan said softly, taking the initiative to lift the two large bags and turning to her.

"Oh."

Yun Zhenyue said instinctively. Watching Gu Yuan’s retreating back, she suddenly realized some good news.

’I just saw the players from other countries standing at the door for ages.’

’It seemed those supernatural beings wouldn’t let them inside.’

’But I was allowed to enter right away!’

’It worked!’

’My treasures worked their magic!’

...

Watching Yun Zhenyue and Gu Yuan’s first meeting,

the global audience in the live broadcast room was stunned!

’What the hell is she blushing for?’

’Is this still a Weird Marriage?’

’We’d believe it if you told us this was some new kind of dating show!’

’He just let her in like that?’

’And he even picked up her pile of junk for her!’

’How can he be so nice?’

’And so handsome, too?’

The Dragon Country audience went wild!

[Holy shit, he’s that handsome? He’s half as good-looking as me, the Daniel Wu of Jiang City.]

[This is insane. A handsome guy suddenly appears among a bunch of ugly freaks. I’m not used to it.]

[Especially after seeing those two from the Great Cold Country and the Sun Country first.]

[Handsome, gentle, and a supernatural being... I’d be willing to take her place!]

[I’m so freaking jealous of Yun Zhenyue!]

The viewers from the Great Cold Country and the Sun Country were indignant!

The female viewers, in particular, were green with envy.

Why does the Dragon Country’s marital partner have to be so good-looking?

Over there they got a homeless guy and a Kappa.

And then a hottie just appears over here?

[Why? The Weird Marriage is so unfair!]

[Yeah, I’m reporting Dragon Country for cheating!]

[Dammit, Gu Yuan is from our Great Cold Country!]

[That’s right! A Dragon Country person could never pull off such a stylish outfit.]

[I’ve had enough of this Kappa!]

[Me too! I don’t want to see Piao Dagen’s face ever again!]

...

Once inside, Gu Yuan sat on the sofa.

He watched as Yun Zhenyue acted as if she had come home.

She started cooking and cleaning, doing a major cleanup.

She didn’t act like a stranger at all.

Her so-called treasures were being put to good use.

Catching a whiff of cooking, Gu Yuan shook his head. ’As the Ghost Emperor, I have no need for food. It’s been a long time since I’ve eaten anything human.’

Watching Yun Zhenyue, who was so careful she wouldn’t let a single grain of rice go to waste,

Gu Yuan was a bit speechless.

’This silly girl probably really thinks I’m poor.’

Seeing Yun Zhenyue stacking the empty milk cartons, Gu Yuan asked in confusion,

"Why are you saving that cardboard?"

"To sell it, of course!"

Yun Zhenyue’s eyes were filled with seriousness.

Gu Yuan: "..."

’I’m the Ghost Emperor. Do I really need to sell cardboard?’

’Is this wife of mine a bit of an airhead?’
