Scum Top Online is the first interactive game in the country whose NPCs have semi-independent consciousness. With its stunning art and beautiful characters, it went viral as soon as it was released.
But the plot in later updates was a complete mess:
The scum top was cold and heartless, seeing the protagonist only as a stand-in for his white moonlight;
The villainous ex-boyfriend lived off his lover, then dumped the protagonist and married his white moonlight;
The white moonlight was in love with the protagonist, but had no choice but to accept an arranged marriage for the sake of the family company;
The handsome childhood friend was gentle and devoted, but never said what he meant...
Players exploded over the direction of the game:
Everyone get #ThatDamnAnnDevTeamIsHeartless! trending!
Luckily, in the later episodes, the protagonist finally kicked those bastards to the curb and started a sweet relationship with the childhood friend, who had finally worked up the courage to confess.
Fans of happy endings were satisfied, but the head of the Ann development team spent the whole night agonizing over his rapidly dwindling hair...
A team member beside him added insult to injury, looking miserable:
"Team leader, the scum top's initial affection setting was 100%, but he couldn't get together with his white moonlight, and the protagonist ended up with the childhood friend. Now he gives money to NPCs every day, seriously disrupting the world's economy. The protagonist and his childhood friend are facing an economic crisis and almost got a bad ending. What do we do?"
The team leader slammed the table. "What else? Search through every NPC! Find him a partner!"
Three days later, a team member reported, "Team leader! The villain! The villain will work!"

"Want to become the richest person in the world? Bind yourself to me, and I'll make it happen!"
Ling He: "...?"
Suddenly, the handsome, gentle, wealthy man across from him didn't seem quite so appealing.
After confirming the System's money-making abilities, Ling He showed up beside the scum top's luxury car the very next day.
The scum top was sitting in the car, gazing sadly at his white moonlight walking away. Ling He reached out and took the cigarette from his hand.
Dressed in a white shirt, he smiled softly, like the moonlight, and said in a quiet voice, "Sir, I'm sorry, but smoking isn't allowed on campus."
Huo Chenshen looked up at the sound of his voice, his expression no longer tender but sharp. Yet when he saw who it was, he froze.
After a whirlwind of thoughts, he finally asked in a low voice, "What's your name?"

At heart, this is a sweet romance about two people falling for each other, a one-on-one happy ending.
