Zhuang Zai, finance officer of the uncanny realm.
Glamorous on the outside, an exploited office worker underneath.
Daily duties: business trips to reconcile accounts, prepare profit-and-loss reports for instances, and occasionally punch bosses or kick players.
He gets no travel allowance for unofficial business trips. He's only doing it to keep his lousy job.
Then, during one such unofficial trip to reconcile an account, a player made an instance disappear on the spot, skipping the normal settlement process. All the missing instance assets were charged to Zhuang Zai.
Forced to shoulder a massive debt, Zhuang Zai embarked on a long repayment grind. He kept entering instances to recover escaped fragments, update reports, and plug the holes, all to avoid being fired by headquarters.
And yet, every time he entered an instance, he ran into the culprit.
The man who had hugged him like a dog the first time they met.
Xie Youyu.
Zhuang Zai sharpened his knives.
Later, the knives were confiscated.
He didn't manage to kill the man, either.
They even ended up together.
Alert! How can an instance finance officer date a player?!
Xie Youyu! Stop tearing things apart! I'll never get these accounts balanced!

It's an infinite-flow story. Enemies-to-lovers in the early stages, a couple who are always at odds.
World-weary, aloof, and "good-tempered" finance officer bottom x gentle, calculating, and "bad-tempered" player top.
Not a particularly out-there infinite-flow story, just a completely nonsensical sweet romance.
Theme: Love and peace.
