NPC Awakening? Don't Panic, Draw a Card First!

Blurb:

Mu Qiancheng is an utterly ordinary novel NPC, a part-time cashier at a convenience store. Her standard line is: Welcome! What can I get for you?

Until one day,

she discovers she has no home, and nowhere to go except school and the convenience store.

She discovers a child with a tree growing from the top of their head.

She discovers a woman with supernatural abilities.

She discovers that the store manager is actually the convenience store itself.

The Social Supernatural Affairs Bureau specializes in handling supernatural incidents in society.

Its agents walk into the convenience store as usual, only to find the NPC who always says Welcome! holding a stack of cards and asking, "Want to draw a card?"

The convenience store owner realizes that something is off about his NPC employee. Aside from her work lines, she now has other things to say.

Mu Qiancheng says to the owner, "Boss, draw a card. It could affect your store's fortunes."

The owner wants to stay silent and refuse, but finds himself answering against his will: "Okay."

After that, Mu Qiancheng squeezes her way into the "protagonist's workplace."

New identity: Temporary employee at the Social Supernatural Affairs Bureau, Mu Qiancheng

Skill: Card Draw (forcibly controls the target for 1-3 minutes; other functions are currently unknown)

The stiff NPC has more lines now: "Don't panic when something happens. Draw a card to calm your nerves."

As her identity changes, a new volume of the novel is released: The NPC Who Gets Courted: Mu Qiancheng.

A sunny, upbeat intern asks her to go to an amusement park.

A gentle, considerate new colleague invites her to a movie.

A handsome, combat-proficient guy from the neighboring team asks her out to dinner.

A gorgeous up-and-coming singer-dancer invites her to a concert.

Whose invitation should she accept?

Mu Qiancheng looks at them, quietly puts away her cards, and gives a shy smile. "Sure!"

Of course, she'll go with all of them.

[The card reads: Since your share of the story has exceeded 70%, new settings have been added for you. Your excellence has attracted the attention of many men. They are suitors trying to win your favor. When you drive a suitor to madness, you will receive a random cash prize worth at least one million yuan.]

No one can turn down a chance to get rich.

The bureau chief frets: They were already short-staffed, and people keep quitting.

Mu Qiancheng draws a card.

The card tells her that someone is outside, kneeling and begging her to look back at him.

Reader's Guide:

1. There are many original setting details, all in service of the plot. The job is the main storyline, and the courtship is a subplot.

2. The heroine is an NPC on the sidelines who enjoys flirting. All the male supporting characters go crazy over her.

3. The male lead is not one of the suitors.
