I Married My Childhood Friend After Entering a Game

Also known as "One Hour of Limited-Time Romance"

-

After dragging her nemesis down a flight of stairs, Lin Qingyue opened her eyes to find herself trapped in a dark room.

Before long, she discovered two shocking things through a screen in the room that kept malfunctioning.

First, in the real world, she had become "mentally disabled."

Second, her childhood friend Fang Chiyang had taken her mentally disabled self to the marriage registry, to their new home, and even into the master bedroom decorated with wedding characters.

It took her a long time to finally accept that she had entered a game designed by her childhood friend, her real-world self had become mentally disabled, her soul was being held captive by him, and he had tricked her into marriage!

Ever since Lin Qingyue entered the game, its NPCs started mysteriously appearing with black eyes and bruises, missing limbs, and even trying to escape the game.

Without exception, these pitiful NPCs had to drag their injured bodies to Lin Qingyue's barbecue shop to skewer food, get massages at the bathhouse, harvest cabbages in the fields, or even become the bones simmered for broth at a tonkotsu ramen shop or the giant fried squid at a barbecue stall...

Fang Chiyang was helpless to do anything about it. He couldn't modify the code and had no idea how to rescue Lin Qingyue.

The only thing he could do was braid Lin Qingyue's hair, dress her in floral skirts, and play house with her every day. Then, when the midnight bells rang and Lin Qingyue returned to her body for an hour, they would have an intense game debrief and plan their divorce and division of assets.

Reader's guide:

The game and story were inspired by It Takes Two, Farm Together, and Animal Crossing.

A silly, amateurish story with a completely wild imagination. Please don't scrutinize any bugs in the setting.

Theme: It's just a game.
