Xie Nianyou is a diligent, conscientious game planner. Just as the game is about to launch, she's told the project has been cancelled and her bonus is gone.

While indignantly researching labor laws, she receives two messages.

Good news: She can seamlessly join a new project team.

Bad news: The new project needs her to enter the game immediately for testing.

Following the principle that since she's here, she might as well go through with it, Xie Nianyou enters the game with the walkthrough System provided by the project team.

But nobody told her this stupid game had more than one male lead.

And nobody told her this world had been shattered and put back together.

The male leads, who seemed gentle, considerate, sunny, and cheerful on the game's official preview site, have all become something else: gloomy, clingy, obsessive, and deranged.

The System is infected, and everything is exposed. Xie Nianyou makes an emergency escape from the game.

The male leads disappear, the game is remade, and Xie Nianyou returns to her orderly life.

Yet she can't shake the feeling that a familiar gaze keeps appearing around her, so faint she can barely notice it.

Younger man | The other man wins her over

Shui Youlan's mother dies, leaving her with the burden of looking after her half-brother.

But her brother is already an adult and has been accepted to university. He doesn't really need her to look after him, just to pay his tuition and occasionally give him a place to stay during the holidays.

So why is he looking at her more and more strangely?

Jiang Zaiyue is bitten on the neck by a zombie in the apocalypse. The next moment, she transmigrates into the body of a general in the Yong Dynasty who shares her name, a dreaded god of war.

The general was carrying a secret letter to rescue her commander when the enemy intercepted her along the way.

She was poisoned and had little time left.

Jiang Zaiyue accepts her new circumstances in no time at all.

As the saying goes, you take someone's money, you solve their problems. Now that she's transmigrated into General Jiang's body, she naturally has to fulfill the general's wishes.

So she doesn't back down when the enemy threatens and tempts her. She doesn't back down when she's struck by several arrows.

As snow flies everywhere and the people around her fall one by one, she still doesn't back down.

Driven to the edge of a cliff, she is buried at its base along with an avalanche.

Dying like this is fine. At least she won't turn into a zombie and attack her own people.

She closes her eyes.

But she doesn't die. Someone saves her.

Yu Wenchan left Mingyun Manor at thirteen. After wandering the world for three years, he settled in a mountain village.

When the war grew severe, he would carry his medicine chest around and treat people for free.

On yet another trip, he found a person on the verge of death in the woods on his way home.

He carried her home.

Her injuries were so severe that she was unlikely to survive.

But he carefully cleaned her wounds, removed the poison, applied medicine, set her broken bones, and stitched up the cuts from the blade.

He nursed her back to health, just as he once raised a medicinal herb in a valley.

The difference was that raising her required watering her with blood.

She could wield a sword again.

She said she still had something to finish.

Then she left.

When she left, his heart felt empty.

Only then did he realize that perhaps, when he stitched up the scar from the knife wound on her chest, he had stitched his own heart inside her, too.

From then on, she held control over his heartbeat.

How can someone live without their heart?
