[The Outcast] Still Striving to Win You Over Today

The female lead is absolutely a seductive, heartless schemer. No feelings, all theatrics. Be warned in advance.

Xia Tao is an ordinary person, but she has a special ability: she can only stay alive by winning other people's affection. There's an affection timer in her head, ticking up by one or two each day...

Every point she gains lets her live one more day.

One day, Xia Tao sets her sights on a seemingly honest young man named Zhang Chulan, thinking he's just an ordinary person.

Only later does Xia Tao realize that she's won over someone who simply can't be won over.

She wants to run! And only then does she realize she can never go back to her old life.

New story: [Tracking the English-Speaking Superheroes] Dancing in the Arena on Repeat

Warning: This is not a typical everyone-loves-the-heroine story. The heroine suffers early on, and the superheroes become hopeless romantics later.

Eve is an outstanding employee at a System-based romance mission company, with an impressive track record. But ever since she started going to the superhero worlds, she's been cheated on again and again, and every story has ended in tragedy.

The first: After a few years of marriage, she belatedly realizes she's Iron Man's substitute lover. Consumed by love and hatred, she nearly shoots his beloved dead several times. He pushes her off a balcony, and Eve is devastated. Bad ending.

The second: They've been childhood sweethearts for a century, and everything is fine. Then Thor descends to Earth and falls in love with a woman from Midgard, and Thor grows distant from her. After a great battle, Eve is gravely wounded and dies of depression. Bad ending.

The third: Bad ending. The fourth: Bad ending...

Eve gave them her whole heart and even took bullets and arrows for them when needed, but they still betrayed her, leaving her broken and hopeless.

Thankfully, all her missions have ended and she's earned enough points to return home. On the way, the worlds suddenly merge, and her former lovers come back to find her, bringing regret and love with them.

Eve gazes despairingly at the sky, her hand trembling unconsciously as she holds a cigarette.

Eve: This is so sudden. I really want to stab them one by one.

An unfeeling romance mission machine, always able to separate the mission from her own needs. You could say she's been cheated on so much that she wants nothing anymore!

A wish-fulfillment story! A wish-fulfillment story! The heroine is the prettiest, and there's no logic to speak of.

Theme: Mine, mine, it's all mine!
