My Dead Ex-Boyfriend Suddenly Attacked Me

Scheming fox childhood-friend male lead x silly, beautiful, laid-back female lead (Chu Yue x Xia Lu)

Chu Yue, Xia Lu's fake boyfriend, said he had to go out for a while to take care of something, and then he stopped responding.

At first, Xia Lu didn't think much of it. Great, she could relax and stop pretending to be his girlfriend!

Neighbor A: Where's your boyfriend? I haven't seen him around in ages.

Xia Lu, offhandedly: If your boyfriend never comes home, either he's cheating or he's dead in a ditch.

Her words came true.

Strange things started happening around Xia Lu.

The air conditioner was broken, but the room always stayed at 22 degrees.

She never ordered takeout, but three meals a day appeared on her dining table.

The useless Xia Lu happily invited her friends over for dinner.

Friend B was inexplicably hit on the head by a falling chandelier, then tripped on flat ground and broke a bone. "Xia Lu, I think you should get a Taoist priest to chase away a ghost. What handsome house spirit? This is definitely a haunting."

Friend B called a Taoist priest over in the middle of the night.

Xia Lu, a devout atheist: "Impossible. I believe in science."

Until that night, when the temperature under her covers plummeted and a cold body pressed against her back. A familiar voice hissed in her ear: "Who was that guy you kept looking at today? Why did you let him into our home?"

[Reading note]

There's no horror. It's just a couple in love, a short, sweet story.

The Beloved Protagonist's Chaotic Love-Rival Routes in an Otome Game

Romance-obsessed, jealous, unhinged male leads in multiple pieces x a flirtatious, oblivious, carefree, universally adored female lead

After breaking up with her ex-boyfriend, Ning Fu somehow transmigrated into the game he designed.

It's just a matter of clearing the game. Easy.

She's an expert player.

System: Then do a good job winning over those male leads. Show me what you can do.

System: I forgot to mention: failing a mission or failing to win a target over will make the male lead go dark.

Ning Fu: What happens if they go dark? I can just reload my save.

System: Take a guess.

1. A seemingly gentle but secretly twisted, clear-headed madman and marine biologist: "I've lost interest in every marine creature. From now on, you are my only siren. The only one I want to study, thoroughly, inside and out."

[Mission: Make him give up all the marine specimens he studies and steal his research data. Make him love you most and hate you most.]

2. A gentle, older, rational CEO who breaks the rules for her: "I think I've developed a need for skin-to-skin contact. You're the only one I react to. Could you come a little closer?"

[Mission: When his touch-starvation acts up, keep edging closer and testing his limits, but don't let him actually touch you.]

3. A devoted, romance-obsessed childhood friend, a wolfish young racing driver: "Want to hop in? I'll take you for a drive by the sea. I've got a surprise for you."

[Mission: Kiss him in the sea breeze for 10 minutes, accept his confession, then dump him.]

4. A genius horror novelist, a self-deluding master of denial with a soft heart: "Don't get the wrong idea. You're just material for my writing. It's not like I care about you or anything. Wait, who are you talking to? Are you going to meet some other guy? I won't allow it!"

[Mission: Flirt with another male lead over the phone in front of him. Make him jealous, then get him to honestly say, "I love you. Don't leave me."]

Ning Fu: So e... Uh. Is this even a job a person can do?!

Ning Fu tried her best to become a master of time management. Halfway through her missions, the male leads suddenly discovered one another.

The most ridiculous part was that every one of them thought the others had stolen Ning Fu's at-ten-tion!

When Ning Fu found herself surrounded by a bunch of naturally unhinged targets...

Reload! Reload!

Aah! Why is the reload button grayed out?!

All the male leads: "Fu-fu, didn't you promise to be with me? Who's that guy beside you?"

[Congratulations, player! You've won the male leads' hearts. Affection: 999999]

[Congratulations, player! You've unlocked the darkened routes for all male leads. Loading the confinement room...]

[Congratulations, player...]

Ning Fu: I'm exhausted. The routes are getting more and more off track.

Wait, this isn't right. Wasn't the game her ex-boyfriend designed an otome game?

Why does the ending screen show a card of her ex-boyfriend coldly washing underwear?!

Ex-boyfriend: What more do you want? Every time you reload, I have to wash a hundred pairs of underwear.

Ex-boyfriend: They're all me. You still love me, right?

Ex-boyfriend, awkwardly: So... will you get back together with me?

Ning Fu: I was just casually pursuing them. Why are you and your other pieces taking it seriously?!
