Jiang Rao accidentally fell into the game she had designed. From the start, she was locked in a dark room and came face-to-face with the mad male lead she had created, Li Heng.
To escape the game, she tried to kill herself but failed, leaving her no choice but to find a way to fill the progress bar.
The NPCs somehow felt completely real to her.
Rejecting her first love, helping the doomed side characters, standing up for justice... She watched the progress bar shoot up, but gradually grew confused.
Wasn't she supposed to become the powerful man's captive pet? How had she become a little... bossy?
"Li Heng, go bring me some water."
"Li Heng, I don't want to listen to your brother talk."
"Li Heng, my feet hurt from dancing..."
The man crouched down, his broad palm enveloping her cold ankle as he gently massaged it. "Does it feel better?"
"Li Heng, I want to break up with you."
After a moment of silence, his voice turned dark. "How did you know I prefer punishing you in a dark room...?"
"..."
The male lead she had designed was mad and ruthless, capable of killing his father and abusing his mother without hesitation. But...
After Jiang Rao got into a one-sided argument with a certain man, neither would back down, and they parted on bad terms. The performance ended late that night. Under the dim streetlights, Jiang Rao stepped out of the theater and saw him leaning against his car, his expression cold and forbidding.
Jiang Rao thought he was still angry. They drove in silence the whole way. She was just about to coax him when they arrived, but as he stopped the car and turned off the engine, he said, "...Kiss me."
Jiang Rao hadn't heard him clearly. "What?"
His Adam's apple bobbed several times. The man repeated himself, stubborn and aggrieved. "I said, kiss me."
