A Flag Won't Stop Her from Winning Them Over

-Plot-focused blurb: Cheng Du’s life went from perfectly fine to completely ruined. One peaceful, lovely, and all-too-brief weekend, she was swept through a sudden rift and onto an unfamiliar planet called Acanum. And because every flag she raised seemed destined to fall, she barely had time to rest before she was sent through two more rifts in a row. Dragged in to do “slave labor,” Cheng Du had no choice but to keep “working” under her unscrupulous employer, Acanum. And would you believe it, her wages were even paid by the System?! To make matters worse, she had a special identity she had to keep secret. Fortunately, this world was normal and safe, and nobody was eyeing her “special identity” with hostile intent. (Her flag-raising skills are still going strong…) Since she was already here, she might as well tackle the scenarios. If she thought of them as VR games, they were actually pretty fun. She got to experience all kinds of lives and identities. At any rate, it was more fun than going to work. (A working stiff’s bitter lament from Cheng Du.) It’d be even better if she’d stop getting dragged into instances for no reason, if the instances would stop leveling up out of nowhere, and if the flags she raised would stop coming true at the most inexplicably inconvenient times. (Lighting-a-cigarette.jpg) (P.S. She doesn’t smoke.) She was starting to forget what “inexplicable” even meant. Do you get it? This is just overtime in disguise!!! (Screaming), Oh, there’s overtime pay? Then never mind. (A wretched smile.) … Acanum had become her second home. She would never let a single one of her friends die before the new world arrived. -Romance-focused blurb: 【Driven, sharp-tongued heroine, unpredictable (?), reckless (?), versus gentle and aloof (not really), tsundere guy; gets a little ghostly in the middle and later chapters】 【Lin Heng’s perspective】: Lin Heng didn’t like Cheng Du much at first. She was too curious and competitive, too quick to act like they were old friends, too hesitant and indecisive, and too prone to needless worry. She was exactly the sort of teammate who gave him a headache. How strange. He was looking forward to it, and wanted more than just to be included in Cheng Du’s circle of friends. Maybe it was because she had qualities he longed for himself? … He still didn’t like Cheng Du. She had a rotten personality and no self-awareness. She always seemed pleased when something she said made him blush, but she never meant anything by it. Every time he saw her innocently say something that made his heart race, it left him vexed. And she had so many friends. Why was he the only one she didn’t consider part of the group? It didn’t matter. He didn’t care. … Now he had a new problem: Cheng Du didn’t like him enough. It was obvious. She’d even admitted it herself. … Well, she was right. What mattered was that she had chosen him now. He could wait. 【Cheng Du’s perspective】: She didn’t like Lin Heng very much. Well, she couldn’t say she didn’t like him. But she felt that Lin Heng was the sort of person who found it difficult to open up and accept others, and people like that gave her a bit of a headache. Oh well, no matter. If they couldn’t get along, so be it. Huh, Lin Heng wasn’t quite what she’d expected. They actually got along pretty well. Besides, she was really curious about how his personality and motivations had developed. … Oh my god! He’s a tsundere! This is fun! Cheng Du, savoring the moment: Lin Heng: “You’re awful!” Cheng Du: That had absolutely no sting to it. It was more like getting scratched by a kitten. Even better. Give me more. (Eager.jpg) … Huh? How did a sudden argument turn into a dramatic confession? She’d seen it coming, sure, but his feelings were far more intense than she’d ever imagined. Well, honestly, she enjoyed that intensity. … She couldn’t promise she’d love Lin Heng forever, but she could promise she was serious about him. Feelings wouldn’t get better on their own if you didn’t put in the effort. If you asked her, Lin Heng worried too much and was too afraid of losing what he had. , Quick guide: 1. Plot-driven, mainly from the heroine’s perspective, one-on-one romance, and not love at first sight. The male lead doesn’t appear very early. The balance between plot and romance is expected to be around 60/40 or 70/30. 2. Other characters’ perspectives will appear, and none of the characters are perfect; each has their flaws. 3. Infinite-flow story with a variety of genres, medium to long length, and some instances include horror elements. I’m an unwavering supporter of happy endings. 4.
