The Palace Maid's Promotion Game

Reader's note: Updates are paused. If you like it, feel free to bookmark it. I promise I won't abandon it. [Ding! The player's starting identity is palace maid. Ultimate goal: win over the target and become empress.] [Ding! The player may choose any of the characters above to enter the game. Complete the task to earn a reward and return to the real world.] [Warning! If a game character dies, they can no longer be selected. If an extra character dies, the player will die too!] This is a life-or-death game, so for the sake of her life, Hua Lei decides to give it everything she's got! But wait, why is the male lead in my game so unconventional? What happened to the wicked, charismatic, cool, domineering heartthrob I was promised?! Dear System, please let me off the hook! His Majesty, the Emperor of Daqi: "Heh. Changing identities and playing me for a fool is fun, is it?" Unconventional male lead vs. goofy female lead [In a nutshell: Finding all sorts of ways to tease you]
