System 66: This time, the mission objective is to get the male lead to sincerely thank you without making it obvious.
Zhao: What does “without making it obvious” mean?
System: You have to protect his pride as a poor but untouchable heartthrob. Help him, but don't let him find out.
Zhao: Got it. Easy. (Nods knowingly and gives an OK sign.)
System: Aaaaaah! Why did you kick him off the building from behind?!
Zhao: How can I save him if I don't kill him first? (Shrugs.)
Instance 2.
System: This time, the script is to make the female lead see what a jerk her boyfriend is and set off toward a happy new life. Here's a golden finger: you can play one extra character to help complete the mission.
Zhao: Sure. (Shrugs.)
System: Mm-hmm. (Stone-faced.)
System: ...Aaaaaah! What is wrong with you?! Why did you turn into a sexy, sultry female cockroach?! What are you even trying to do?! (Screaming at the top of its lungs.)
Zhao: I'm not here to break up this family. I'm here to join it.
