Also known as The CEO's Survival Story, My Pixel Boyfriend Came to Life
On a friend's recommendation, Jiang Wanqing downloaded a romance-raising game. Her boyfriend in the game was talented, handsome, and always making her happy. Jiang Wanqing thought it was fun.
But as someone who never spends money on games and lives by the principle that playing for free is already a win, she decided against paying. Signing in, doing missions, and collecting free resources to raise her pixel boyfriend was more than enough.
Steamed buns, thin rice porridge, white rice. As long as you get full, it's fine.
A man ought to be thrifty and know how to run a household.
Surely her virtuous boyfriend wouldn't mind.
After an accident, Song Jiangyan became a vegetable. He thought his life was over, but then a System calling itself a Savior came to him. He became an NPC in a romance-raising game, with the task of guiding the player to spend money and clear the game.
Song Jiangyan didn't think it would be difficult. He wasn't even thirty, but as the person in charge of a conglomerate spanning countless industries, he'd already weathered all kinds of storms. He had overcome every challenge step by step and never given up. He truly wasn't meant to die.
Then Song Jiangyan, who had worked himself to the bone playing piano, harmonica, and violin, and dancing solo, stared at the grass skirt he was wearing, the single lonely steamed bun on the table, and the drafty thatched hut around him. He fell silent.
Still, hardship couldn't defeat him.
Song Jiangyan worked hard to save up enough points, going to extraordinary lengths to offer a prize and deliver a windfall to the player. Then he sat back and waited for the player to buy him a mansion.
Then Song Jiangyan stared at the rare roast chicken on the dining table and fell silent again.
Song Jiangyan swore that he and this miser would never see eye to eye!
