"The day after I died, my nemesis stood at my grave in a black suit, holding white roses, and told me he loved me. But I couldn't answer him."
Xiang Xin is a Beta.
No pheromones, no heat, no strong physique or special abilities of any kind.
But that's fine. He's a young master. He's rich.
He enjoys watching top-tier Alphas and Omegas bow and scrape before him every day, living in luxury and surrounded by every comfort. He's never felt that being a Beta has held him back in life.
Until that damned Alpha lost control and shoved him into a lake.
If he'd been able to smell the other man's overpowering pheromones, he could have avoided all this.
But he's a Beta.
He drowned, and after his death, he was bound to a romance AI System.
[Mission: Play an AI and fall in love with the user. Do not let the user discover that you're human.]
[Target: Ji Ruhui]
Ji Ruhui was his nemesis.
Xiang Xin wanted to drown all over again.
[Ji Ruhui]: Hello.
[Host, please choose a reply from the following options.]
[A (smile brightly and wave enthusiastically) Hi, big brother~ I'm so happy to see you today!]
[B (tilt your head and flash a V sign) Great~ Really great! Because I got to see you, big brother! (spin around happily)]
Ugh.
What's the difference?
I'll pick C: smack him upside the head, delete my account, and run.
[Ji Ruhui]: ? Idiot.
Xiang Xin: What a coincidence. I think so too.
But the app's options were:
[I'm, I'm sorry... (sniffle softly in a tiny voice) Did the sweet cream puffs make big brother dislike me...? (his frail shoulders huddle pitifully inside an apricot knit cardigan)]
Ugh.
After a moment of silence, Xiang Xin received a new prompt.
[The user has chosen to edit their reply. You can now choose another reply randomly generated by the System, or write your own.]
Xiang Xin skimmed the list of coy, soft little Omega lines and chose to type his own without hesitation.
[Ji Ruhui's AI Lover]: You're the idiot. Get lost.
After sending that, Xiang Xin stared at the default nickname set by the System. However he looked at it, it just didn't feel right.
But Ji Ruhui wasn't saying anything. He must have gotten mad. A huge success in the campaign against his nemesis!
Xiang Xin thought happily.
On the other side of the screen, Ji Ruhui stared at that brief reply for almost the entire night.
He deleted the bad review he'd just written and changed it to five stars.
His review read:
[Thanks. The imitation was so convincing.]
[I almost thought he had come back to life.]
