I Woke Up as the Game NPC's Beloved

Sharp-tongued, laid-back worker x tea-flavored Oscar-winning actor

When Xia Xiyu woke up, she found herself in the water, being pulled out by someone. The man beside her held her hand with tender affection and confessed his love, saying she was the one he'd always cherished.

Man: I won't leave you alone again.

Xia Xiyu: A ghost!

To keep her body and the hard-won job she'd finally landed, Xia Xiyu had no choice but to submit to the System and enter its worlds, completing missions to earn points and go home.

She had planned to work hard to clear each world, but along the way she ran into one bizarre person after another, as well as a fixed NPC who wouldn't leave her alone. Xia Xiyu was at her wits' end.

When she ran into a mad village chief, couldn't she just run away?

When she ran into an alpha who'd gone crazy and set his own house on fire, run again!

When a gang surrounded her, run, fast! Wait, why is a ghost following me too?

Xia Xiyu was so scared she nearly fell to her knees and kowtowed to the ghost, but the other person looked at her sadly. "You don't recognize me anymore?"

Xia Xiyu: If you had a better-looking face, I might recognize you.

At first, Xia Xiyu was anxious about her missions, afraid she wouldn't be able to finish them and get home. Then she gradually lost sight of the point.

Xia Xiyu: "Why does this person always stick so close to me? And he's a fixed NPC, too. Doesn't he have any professionalism? Is this even a proper game?"

929: "How is it not proper?"

Xia Xiyu: "This NPC says I'm the one he's always cherished, but I don't know him. Did this really happen?"

929: "Probably."

Gradually, Xia Xiyu relaxed. If she couldn't finish the missions, she could always lie flat. After all, she was the NPC's beloved.

The first time Xia Xiyu met Nie Fuxi, she asked 929, "How strange. Can there be a fixed NPC across multiple worlds?"

929: "...Probably not, hahaha..."

The nth time Xia Xiyu met Nie Fuxi, she asked 929, "What do I do? I think I'm starting to like this fixed NPC."

929: "That's wonderful!"

One-on-one pairing, both leads are chaste

A long, long journey of chasing his wife and going home. Beware of melodrama.

Before we met,

our connection was a fated cycle of reincarnation.

After I met you,

I realized our connection began with you, and we were destined to meet.

Theme: You chase, I run
