share time: 2026-02-27 12:31:22

Lin Xiaoman, an overworked office worker who counts every penny for milk tea, rents the legendary "haunted" Apartment 404 to save money. But she’s shocked when she steps in—no ghosts, just Gu Qingchuan, a thousand-year-old immortal trapped here after failing his tribulation. To escape, he must help Lin, the "current landlord," complete her "life reversal KPI." From then on, Lin’s life takes a magical turn: a "spirit speech buff" helps her fight back against workplace PUA, fairy dew congee warms her after overtime, and even her hair loss is cured by aura! Gu seems cold, but secretly learns to make Lin’s favorite taro ball milk tea, awkwardly gives her a jade pendant (claiming it “wards off evil”) when she cries, and lights the street lamps with magic for her late returns. As the apartment’s seal loosens and Gu prepares to return to the immortal realm, they realize the "system task" is just fate’s script—what he’s waited a thousand years for isn’t a chance to渡劫, but the girl who’d pull his hand and ask, "Taro balls or pearls in your milk tea?"
