**Blurb**
Hua Xiangrong transmigrated into a tragic romance novel...
(Hua Xiangrong: Isn't this just a novel where the heroine gets tortured?)
(Suspicious System: You see through it, but you don't say it...)
Suspicious System: Host, you need to play the frail heroine well and follow the entire plot. Be sweet and helpless while completing my tasks...
Hua Xiangrong suddenly had a bad feeling. If it was emphasizing this so much, it couldn't be anything good...
She asked: So what kind of System are you?
Face-Slapping System: Hello, Host. I'm the Face-Slapping System, a real face-slapping system.
Face-Slapping System: Daily task (face-slapping 0/100). Once you complete your daily task, you can change one attribute of anyone except yourself. Choose carefully. (Note: If you don't have enough quantity, quality can make up the difference.)
Hua Xiangrong: ...A real face-slapping system... And I get to do this? What a deal!
On Hua Xiangrong's first day at work, she walked right into the tragic-romance male lead beating up the heroine.
Her face paled. She didn't want to get beaten!
[Hua Xiangrong: System, how many slaps do I get for hitting the male lead once?]
[Face-Slapping System: 100.]
Without a second thought, Hua Xiangrong slapped him hard, remembering to act all weepy and frail along the way.
Mo Chengxuan: ?
Later, Hua Xiangrong discovered that this wasn't just a tragic romance novel. It had horror elements too, and was actually a small world within an infinite-flow story.
Hua Xiangrong: Huh?
[Face-Slapping System: Please select an attribute to change.]
[Hua Xiangrong: Set everyone's strength to a negative number. Negative one hundred!]
Just as she was on high alert, ready for anything, a player who had entered to complete a task grabbed her because she was the heroine and confessed his love.
Lu Huanong cornered her against the wall and was about to speak when the woman in his arms looked up at him with tearful eyes. Her trembling voice carried a note of anticipation. “Are you about to get all red-eyed and grab me by the waist, then... give me your life?”
Lu Huanong froze. Had he found the wrong person? Was she the world boss?
[Face-Slapping System: Host, hurry up. It's three minutes to midnight, and you're still ten slaps short of your task.]
Hua Xiangrong looked troubled. Sobbing, she accused him, “How could you do this? It's all your fault!” You dragged me to this secluded place in the middle of the night, so now I have to hit you. Sorry about that.
She raised her hand to slap him.
Who was Lu Huanong? As a top player in an infinite-flow world, would he really let a tragic-romance heroine slap him so easily?
“Smack!”
The crisp sound of a slap rang out. In that moment, Lu Huanong seemed like a weakling, staggering backward from a single slap.
[System: Oooooohhhhh, Host, you did it! 10,000 points!!!]
[Hua Xiangrong: Oooooohhhhh, yay! I'm incredible!]
“Waaah, you shameless jerk! You brought me to a place like this in the middle of the night!” Hua Xiangrong sobbed in a delicate voice as she turned and fled the scene, staggering like a willow in the wind but moving with determined, rapid steps.
Lu Huanong: ?!

This story is also known as: The Infinite-Flow Expert Fell in Love with Me After I Slapped Him; I Was Afraid of Getting Hurt, So I Set Everyone's Strength to a Negative Number; Infinite: The Real Face-Slapping System; [Infinite] Slapping Everyone; Even Passing Dogs Get Slapped by Me; The Tragic-Romance Heroine Doesn't Want to Hear You Talk and Gives You a Slap. The author adds to this story whenever they're in a particularly wonderful state of mind. (Progress: 6,000/100,000)
1. Mo Chengxuan, the first to get slapped, is the original tragic-romance male lead. Don't worry about him. He's just a brainless side character.
2. Lu Huanong is the male lead. (Thanks to my favorite, Li Bai, for writing so many poems and giving me names for both my male and female leads.)
3. The male lead is a pervert. The heroine slaps him, and he falls in love with her!!! Can you believe some people are like this? (All right, the author has already made fun of him first, so you can't say anything about it now.)
4. Everyone in this story, men and women alike, gets slapped. The male lead is no exception. Don't read if you can't handle that.
5. The early part takes place in a tragic-romance world, and the later part is infinite-flow. The story occasionally returns to the tragic-romance world during its various small worlds.
6. To the heroine, this is a feel-good, sweet little story (?)
7. [Important] The heroine really is a weakling, but her doting author gives her a cheat.
Everyone, including the male lead, has a strength score below negative one hundred after meeting the heroine. Even with a strength score of positive five, she can beat them up.
Their strength scores are below negative one hundred because if they hit the heroine, they heal her instead...
8. Forgive the author for being unrestrained and loving to write brainless, evil male characters...
9. If you're looking for logic in this story, you've hit the jackpot! Because the entire story is completely bonkers, bonkers, and more bonkers!
Theme: Even when backed into a corner, fight back!
