The domineering CEO Jiang Ling woke up to discover she had transmigrated into an otome dating game.
Players could choose from four different heroines to unlock four romance routes:
1. The neglected princess of a fallen kingdom: She once saved the enemy emperor as a child, unlocking a tragic romance route.
2. The sheltered young lady of a prestigious family: Childhood friends with the young master of the Prime Minister's residence, unlocking a childhood-sweethearts route.
3. The renowned top scholar: She falls in love with and fights with a playboy prince, unlocking a bickering-lovers route.
4. The courtesan who was forced into the pleasure quarters: She once shared a meal with a great general, unlocking a steadfast-love route.
Unfortunately, Jiang Ling transmigrated as a cannon-fodder NPC in the game, a background character who died right at the beginning of every route. She was the most doted-on princess of the fallen kingdom, and her emperor father feared she would be humiliated, so he jumped off the city wall with her before the enemy army stormed the capital.
Worse, she arrived just as her emperor father was about to drag her over the wall...
The one weakness of domineering CEO Jiang Ling's character setting was her fear of heights: ...
To make matters worse, the four official heroines in the game also had players, in addition to her, the cannon-fodder NPC...
System: Stop the four players from progressing through their romance routes, while also winning over the enemy emperor, the Prime Minister's young master, the playboy prince, and the great general!
Jiang Ling: ...
The System watched in astonishment as Jiang Ling plotted to seize the throne, using the banner of restoring the former dynasty to rebuild her homeland and become its empress...
System: Impressive, Host... But wait! (;′⌒`) Host, this is a dating game! I didn't tell you to turn it into a strategy and management game!!!
%￥#@&*... Huh? Why did the romance quests complete automatically, too?
The System watched the enemy emperor, who wanted nothing more than to marry into the Host's family, the playboy prince, who couldn't wait to change his citizenship, the Prime Minister's young master, who had packed up all his belongings, and the great general, who had brought his army to surrender, and fell into deep thought.
Ending: One-on-one romance
Theme: Even after hitting rock bottom, rise back up
