What could be more despairing than a teammate going off the rails?
Qi Yunxi: There is! When my teammate won’t do it, I have to do it myself.
Script: [Qi Yunxi elopes with a passerby. Han Yanming flies into a rage and draws his sword to kill them.]
Qi Yunxi: Come on, stab me!
Han Yanming: Killing you two would only dirty my sword.
With the plot about to go off course, Qi Yunxi whips out her sword and kills the passerby instead.
System: As long as someone’s lying flat, that counts as meeting the KPI. Reward: 100 gold coins.

Script: [Han Yanming’s inner demon takes hold, and his fever won’t break.]
Qi Yunxi: I’m done. Are you sure a temperature hot enough to fry an egg won’t kill him?
System: If he doesn’t survive, this world will collapse too.
Qi Yunxi quickly trades for fever medicine and administers it through his PG.
System: (ㅍ_ㅍ) At least the villain survived. That counts as passing. Reward: 50 gold coins.
Qi Yunxi: Only 50? I’d have been better off not saving him.

Script: [Before leaving the village, the villain slaughters everyone, leaving rivers of blood.]
Qi Yunxi: It’s the Winter Solstice today. Let’s slaughter a pig for the winter. No, two.
Han Yanming: Can you even eat that much?
Qi Yunxi: System, didn’t you see the river of blood? Where’s my reward?
System: ...
-
Script: [The villain develops intense hostility toward the male lead.]
Qi Yunxi: You have to glare at him and hate him from the bottom of your heart.
Han Yanming: Ridiculous. Why would he matter to me?
Qi Yunxi accidentally falls.
Pei Yuan’an steps forward to catch her: Lady Qi, are you all right?
Han Yanming flies into a rage: Where’s my sword?
System: The main character is finally following the plot. Reward: 999+ gold coins.
