After Winning Over Four Male Leads, My Prize Is a Restart

Qiu Kuoxin, a medical student, kindly agreed to beta-test a game. After a flash of white light, she found herself dressed in bridal red and sitting on an intricately carved bed.

A System prompt chimed: Welcome to "The Exquisite Chess Game: Reborn in Another's Body."

First stage: A young nobleman from Republican-era China versus a widow vying for his family fortune!

The widow's first mission was to close her heart to love, while the young nobleman pursued her relentlessly. But in those war-torn times, he left her a letter and suddenly disappeared.

When she opened her eyes again, the widow had become the wealthy second daughter of a Western fantasy world, but she was in a trench. Through the smoke, a brown-eyed soldier strode toward her in military boots.

He abruptly clamped a pair of shackles around her wrist. "Miss Isli, congratulations. You're my spoils of war."

Second-stage identities: Marshal of the Xiliao Army versus a noblewoman turned slave.

"I want to file a complaint against the game designers! Which bastard came up with this?"

Qiu Kuoxin protested from beneath the palace walls in the third stage. "First I'm a widow, then I'm a slave. Are all the handsome guys in this stage bald?!"

The System replied smugly, "Don't worry, they all have hair, and your palace-intrigue rival is a male consort! The Regent himself will deliver you to his bed."

"Did we switch to the wrong channel? Aaaah!"

Having just escaped the palace, she charged into a classroom. Chalk writing on the blackboard celebrated Beijing's successful 2008 Olympic bid.

Qiu Kuoxin was stunned. "You've sent me back seventeen years!"

Police sirens blared outside.

The System displayed a prompt: "In this stage, you're a murder suspect."

"Are you trying to kill me?!"

The System fell silent. Its faint electronic voice came in fits and starts. "The boss's final command: the last stage. Childhood friends, one a gloomy, twisted psycho."
