The Flower-Growing Game Became Reality

A new novel is now underway: "After a Diligent Foolish Emperor Binds Himself to the Wise Emperor System". A lighthearted comedy with no romance, featuring an emperor focused on nation-building, set in an alternate ancient world. Please add it to your favorites~

Novel blurb:

Ye Xing accidentally downloaded the wrong version of a flower-growing game: a pirated one.

What?

You say this pirated game is free with one tap, has no ads or pay-to-win features, gives away rare flowers through quests, and even has a handy desktop widget for planting and harvesting flowers.

Flower-growing enthusiast, overjoyed: If this isn't the official version, what is?

The only thing that confused her was this:

Her new friends were often awake day and night, online 24 hours a day, and spoke in ways that made no sense.

[Boss, I... could I ask you for a set of flowers? Cat with pleading eyes.jpg]

Ye Xing happily agreed and asked what flowers they wanted. She opened up a whole warehouse of rare flowers and let them choose.

[Boss, do you have a set of white lilies you could sell me? Hungry cat.jpg]

Ye Xing was speechless. They were asking so timidly for level-one flowers, which were given away for free!

[Boss, your planet is so beautiful. Can I move in and never leave?]

Ye Xing knew this had to be some popular internet meme. Language had evolved to the point where the words “so beautiful” weren't enough to express praise anymore.

Ye Xing: ? Huh...

[Why do your flowers get to grow successfully ********]

Ye Xing was baffled. That was a pretty filthy insult. And could growing flowers really fail? Didn't you just gather enough materials and tap a button?

Everyone knows that games that don't ask you to spend money do demand your liver. Ye Xing, who spent every day either growing flowers or on her way to grow flowers, had something to say:

At this point, I may as well just grow some flowers.

P.S.:

This is neither a female-led story nor a female-only society. The supporting characters' genders are decided as soon as their names are chosen. Everyone has their own strengths, and characters of every gender get their moment to shine. I hope readers will focus on the story itself rather than the gender ratio among the supporting cast. The setting is a future interstellar world, not a utopia.

Theme: Protecting the environment is everyone's responsibility
