The volume synopsis is as follows, from Seven Seas Entertainment:
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?
Wang Xiaomie, a reclusive gay virgin, wakes up to a shocking reality: he now inhabits the body of a thousand-year-old corpse, dressed in elaborate wedding attire. Even more bizarre, he finds himself sharing a coffin with Wen Fengjin, an immortal warrior who has spent centuries waiting for the return of his lost lover!
Now trapped in a lavish mausoleum, undead and constantly ravenous, Wang Xiaomie’s only source of sustenance is a magical peach blossom tree that keeps his heart beating. But survival isn’t the only challenge—he must also avoid grave robbers and, more troubling still, conceal his growing attraction to the hot, yet utterly unhinged, immortal who will stop at nothing—even murder—to protect his beloved.

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!
