One day, Su Xue is chosen by a System and tasked with winning over three male leads from novels.
One is a male lead from a power-fantasy novel. He has a miserable start, with friends and family sacrificed, and claws his way up from the mud one step at a time. He is carefree and unruly, has friends everywhere and admirers in every corner, and crushes every enemy across the ages.
One is a male lead from a romance web novel. Born into a noble cultivation family, he has never fallen in love. He is an aloof, otherworldly Sword Venerable, far above the common crowd. One stroke of his sword can cleave the cosmos, and no one dares entertain thoughts about him.
One is a male lead from an erotic novel: an unfathomably sinister, two-tailed snake god who has been pent up for a thousand years.
After hearing all this, Su Xue rubs her hands together. "Sure, a dating sim? I'm great at those."
"Should I take them one at a time, or all at once?"
"Who am I supposed to be? The junior sister who starts with a great hand and then plays it terribly? The taciturn senior sister whose kindness is repaid with betrayal? Surely I'm not the female master with peak combat power? That's the ultimate trump card!" she squeals excitedly.
The System says softly, "Dear, none of those..."
Su Xue waves her hand grandly. "I get it. Then I'm the spoiled daughter of an elder, the jilted fiancee who gets face-slapped, or the overlooked branch of a prestigious family!"
She can be any of them!
She lets out a triumphant roar.
The System sums it up: "You're a miner."
Su Xue's smile slowly freezes. "...?" She thinks she must have heard something strange.
The System awkwardly adds in a quiet voice, "A poor female miner who has to mine for twenty hours a day and won't even get to see their faces."
"Your ninety-nine predecessors all died from working themselves to death in the mines."
"We could only exploit a loophole in the world to get this most inconspicuous identity. Sorry!"
