Shen Shiqing remembered having a boyfriend, someone he was supposed to go register his marriage with.
But whenever he mentioned this person, everyone reacted with surprise.
The gray-haired butler said, "Young master, I've told you that staying single too long can mess with your head."
The sharp, capable secretary said, "Boss, why don't you take a couple of days off?"
The admirers swarming around him said, "Did you make up a partner just to turn me down?"
Little by little, Shen Shiqing stopped mentioning this person, but he didn't think there was anything wrong with his memory.
Since this boyfriend hadn't shown up in ages, Shen Shiqing automatically turned him into an ex-boyfriend.
Shen Shiqing clocked out as usual and ran into a criminal attacking someone in the parking lot. He rescued the victim, then stepped into another world.
It was dark, terrifying, and oppressive, yet Shen Shiqing laughed aloud among the crowd.
The person crying beside him paused, then hurried away in panic, crying even louder.
Shen Shiqing: "..."
Someone asked him what he was laughing about.
What was he laughing about? Even he didn't know.
His instincts told him that he could find the answers to the problems he'd been having lately here.

The veteran players in the game heard that an ordinary C-rank instance had suddenly become much harder, with a hidden storyline added. The boss seemed different from before, and wore a mask wherever he went.
The instance's survival rate had plummeted. Any newbie randomly assigned to it was simply out of luck.
The first time unlucky Shen Shiqing saw the boss, his hands started itching. He wanted to lift the mask and take a look.
The others thought his behavior was a textbook case of playing with fire.
Later.
Bystanders A, B, C, and D: "Is it just us, or is this boss particularly... tolerant of Shen Shiqing?"
P.S. I'm just leaving an idea here for now (I already posted a screenshot of the blurb on Weibo).
This isn't a complicated story, just a simple one. After all, the author's intelligence has its limits, so...
Theme: I won't start it if no one seems interested
