[Aristocratic academy + privileged elites + one woman, multiple men]
Ji Xihe is a player.
One day, she got her hands on a newly released otome game with a high degree of freedom. Before it arrived, she was excited.
The game was heavily marketed online as having a complete world setting. Players could pursue their ambitions while falling in love, and the first to complete every ending would receive a cash prize of two million yuan.
After excitedly getting the game and playing for a few days, Ji Xihe angrily contacted customer service to complain.
The reason was simple: Ji Xihe felt the game company had made false claims.
It was indeed an otome game, but the company had failed to tell players that the game also contained various mods.
And the System assigned the mods, so players couldn't choose them freely.
The mod assigned to Ji Xihe was "The Background Extra's Role."
What is a background extra? In an aristocratic academy where money lets you do whatever you want and privileged elites are everywhere, a background extra is a disposable item, a convenient tool for the elites to use whenever they appear.
Background extras can be ordered around by the elites like errand girls.
Everything about a background extra can be sacrificed for this world built on money and power.
After complaining to customer service to no avail, Ji Xihe thought for a few minutes, then quickly rallied. She decided to make life miserable for these privileged elites. Money no longer mattered.
But Ji Xihe had no idea why these elites seemed to have a masochistic streak. After she had popped up to annoy them for the 1,008th time, she was the one being pressured into marriage.
Ji Xihe smiled and stepped back. "Background extras and privileged elites are different species. We can't be together."
