A Favorability-Raising Game, but My Teammate Is a Psycho [Infinite]

Next novel: Took a Job from My Ex After Losing My Memory. The blurb is below!

A fairly traditional infinite-flow story, with no livestreams, no evil gods, no direct-win golden finger, and a low-profile system that isn't a boss. Two equally matched lovers start from zero and face each challenge side by side. Chapter comments are open, the whole novel is written, and I promise it won't be abandoned! (≧∇≦)

[Instances One, Two, Three, and Four are complete]

Half a month ago, a sudden downpour fell on a sunny day without warning.

Three days later, tens of thousands of bell-shaped flowers had sprung up around the world. People began losing consciousness on a massive scale everywhere, and governments and doctors around the globe were helpless.

Half a month later, after spending several days observing data around the clock, Yu Tianchu finally succumbed to exhaustion and fell asleep over his desk.

When he awoke from the darkness, he found himself inside a medieval castle.

Ever since Yu Tianchu met Lu Yunqing in the first instance, he realized there was no way he could return to reality by conventional means.

While everyone else carefully followed the NPC's instructions to complete their tasks, Lu Yunqing simply killed the NPC. To top it off, he earned an impressive nature favorability score of -15!

And that shameless guy still grinned and hugged him, inviting him to team up.

"Darling, think about it. I'd make a pretty good teammate."

Yu Tianchu had to admit that Lu Yunqing was a good teammate, crazy though he was. More importantly, he was really handsome!

And so, Yu Tianchu's ill-advised indulgence only made Lu Yunqing more brazen.

Then one day, Lu Yunqing pinned him against a wall and leaned close to his ear, chuckling.

"Yu Tianchu, I told you before that I'd make a good teammate. Now I want to say that I'd make a good boyfriend, too."

"If you can, darling, will you think about me when this instance is over?"

There are quite a few original details, and I've done my best to make the instance logic work, so please don't overthink it~

[Please Note]

1. Daily updates start in September. The whole novel is written, and I promise it won't be abandoned. Please don't wait for it to pile up before reading!

2. The story-to-romance ratio is 7:3 early on and 6:4 later.

3. No ship-breaking, reverse pairings, self-insert, gender-swapping, or face-swapping. Apart from typo fixes, I won't accept any changes to the wording. Related comments will be deleted.

4. There is one BL secondary couple, but their romance won't be shown in the book. Their relationship takes up far less space than their role in the plot.

5. Starting with Volume Three, I'll write little bonus scenes in the author's notes. If you don't like them, click "Hide Author's Notes" in the top right to turn them off.

6. All written content is documented. Please don't make baseless accusations of plagiarism or AI use.

Below is the blurb for the upcoming novel Took a Job from My Ex After Losing My Memory (to be revised)! If you're interested, you can add it to your collection. It's tentatively scheduled to start on March 6, 2027, though everything is subject to change before then~

Xu Chiwu, a professional who sorts through the belongings of the deceased, dies in an accident. When he opens his eyes again, he has become a little cat with snowy-white fur.

Xu Chiwu: "Meow?"

The System's cold electronic voice rings mercilessly in his mind. [Beep! Host has been bound to the Memory Recovery System! Only by accepting commissions and helping clients recover their memories can Host maintain a human form.]

Xu Chiwu returns to his old line of work, except now his clients are alive instead of dead.

A year later, the Memory Recovery Shop has become famous. As usual, after completing a commission, Xu Chiwu decides to use his brief time in human form to take a trip to an island.

No one knows that the "Xu Immortal," who has helped countless people recover their memories, is also searching for memories of his own past.

*

On the ferry, Xu Chiwu leans against the railing and watches the sunset.

A man walks up and offers him a lemon candy. Smiling warmly, he says gently, "You don't look very well. Are you seasick? Have a candy."

Xu Chiwu, pale-faced, studies the handsome man in front of him for a moment, then hesitantly takes the candy. "Thank you."

To his surprise, he discovers that the man beside him knows the island very well.

After confirming that Yu Yan is traveling to the island alone, Xu Chiwu gazes into his warm eyes and, on impulse, asks, "Could you be my tour guide for a few days? I'll pay you."

Yu Yan looks at him in surprise. Seeing the regret in his eyes, he smiles and nods. "Sure. In exchange, can I have your contact information?"

Xu Chiwu feels comfortable around Yu Yan, and the two spend a pleasant week on the island. When they part, he finds himself reluctant to leave.

But his time in human form is almost up. He has to go back and take on his next commission.

*

Rumor has it that an "Xu Immortal" lives at the end of Anchang Street and can help people recover their lost memories.

By chance, Yu Yan learns that this "Xu Immortal" is none other than his boyfriend, Xu Chiwu, who has been missing for two years and is currently vacationing on an island.

He sets his work aside, books a ticket to the island, and successfully sees his beloved for the first time in two years.

After their brief reunion, Yu Yan goes to great lengths to persuade Xu Chiwu, who is very selective about his clients, to accept his outrageously expensive commission. But Xu Chiwu doesn't show up as agreed.

Confused, Yu Yan goes to the Memory Recovery Shop, only to find a little cat with snowy-white fur.

Yu Yan stares at the tiny cat baring its teeth and claws, then calls uncertainly, "Xu Wuchi?"

The cat buries its head in the covers and reluctantly hooks its tail around Yu Yan's wrist. "...Meow."

[Please Note]

1. This isn't strictly a road-trip story, but the two will travel together for part of it.

2. Xu Chiwu spends relatively little time as a cat. The human-to-cat ratio is about 8:2.

3. No ship-breaking, reverse pairings, self-insert, gender-swapping, or face-swapping. Apart from typo fixes, I won't accept any changes to the wording. Related comments will be deleted.
