In the year 3124 on the Yuan Shui Star calendar, the first immersive full-dive romance game, Love at One Hundred Percent, is released.
-
Su Xiyan is hailed as the perfect romance-game heroine. Her appearance is almost universally adored on Yuan Shui Star, and a single still image is enough to take the internet by storm.
She is gentle by nature, making every player who fails to win her over fall for her even as they cry.
Yes, fail.
Not one game streamer has managed to get a happy ending.
Even so, Love at One Hundred Percent draws huge numbers of players willing to spend money after its public beta launches, making the game company a fortune.
-
Following market research, the company releases a separate gender-swapped version set in City B.
The male lead, Su Xihe, is carefully designed, with a coming-of-age journey similar to but distinct from Su Xiyan’s.
Note: Before the target reaches adulthood, players can only pursue familial or platonic routes. Once the target is an adult, players of the opposite sex can pursue a romantic route.
Su Xihe’s routes are just as difficult, at the level of hell. Aside from friendship and family routes, nobody has managed to get a happy ending on the romance route.
-
Su Xiyan lives in an almost fairytale world, surrounded by love and kindness. Everyone around her is utterly devoted to her.
“What will it take... for you to love me?”
They desperately show her their talents, wealth, and power, then offer up their hearts, madly in love with her.
She remains unmoved.
Childhood friend, handsome hero who saves her, wealthy CEO, charming celebrity, devoted butler, gentle shopkeeper...
Whether players or NPCs, they take on all kinds of identities and appear in her life at every stage of her growth.
They watch her grow more beautiful, intelligent, and dazzling with every passing year.
They know it’s a game, but everyone goes crazy for her.
-
On the day she turns eighteen, Su Xiyan wakes up to find herself with two bodies.
At the same time, Su Xiyan and Su Xihe draw back their curtains. The scenery of City A and City B is different. She stands before a mirror and looks at this male body, receiving Su Xihe’s memories from the past eighteen years. She now has two lives.
The two lives share one thing: whether as the female lead, her, or the male lead, him, both are surrounded by countless admirers.
-
Shenghua Technology receives a flood of player complaints: the game has developed an unprecedented bug.
Because the versions are different, City A and City B were never meant to connect. But now the two cities from Versions A and B have suddenly merged into one.
The two romance targets appear in the same scene.
That scene is the wedding of Su Xiyan and Su Xihe.
-
The two romance targets got married!
SOS! What kind of earth-shattering bug is this?!
#Got it, this game company is doing something really new#

-Reader Notice-
1. From the perspective of the in-game world, Su Xiyan and Su Xihe are two immensely popular people getting together.
2. This is a secret-identity gender-swapped story in which the heroine is the only one who knows the two bodies share the same consciousness. Not even the game company knows!
3. The heroine’s awakening will be explained near the end.
4. Due to circumstances beyond anyone’s control, the game only allows opposite-sex romance routes. However, characters of the same sex as the protagonist may still feel affection and admiration for them, but nothing related to sexual orientation is involved.
Theme: If you want to love someone, you can start by loving yourself.
