[Cold-blooded, career-minded expedition scientist who puts profit first × kind-hearted otherworldly flower picker, to the point of foolishness]
A hurricane sweeps Ruiti into a strange, isolated town.
She is badly injured, and a golden-haired flower picker rescues her.
He tells her the town is called Aixinweier. The seasons only change when the town bell rings. He belongs to spring. Everyone works only during their own season and sleeps through the others.
Ruiti immediately starts scheming. This kind fool is just a stepping-stone on her road to success.

Ruiti is the youngest expedition scientist at the Langpei Institute, and, like most people in the New District, she has eyes only for fame and fortune.
If she can take the town's exotic flowers and plants back with her, won't she become one of the New District's elite? She'll have fame and fortune!
Just as she's about to get what she wants,
She says she's a liar. The man doesn't believe her.
She says she'll raze his hometown. The man hands her a pickaxe.
She says she'll tie him up and take him to a lab for research. The man just grins foolishly.
She says she'll use the fortune she's about to make to find a handsome young man. The man cries.
“Do you really think my pig brain is joking?” Ruiti grabs the man's golden hair.
“God... God doesn't allow you to do that.”
“Don't bring up worthless things like that.”
*
The plan is in ruins! She's lost all contact with the outside world, and now the townspeople are ready to take revenge on her. She's become the town's villain.
The town is in chaos, too! Everyone is trapped in an endless winter!
At the edge of life and death, when that fool still rushes toward her through the blizzard without hesitation, Ruiti's frozen heart is almost melted in an instant by his golden kindness.
This time, I'll take you and break through the cycle of the seasons.

Reading guide:
1. Gender-bender romance. The female lead is not a virgin; the male lead is. Both have ordinary human anatomy.
1. The heroine starts out morally depraved, then turns from dark to good.
2. The male lead is incomparably kind, to the point of foolishness. He'd count out the money for someone after being sold.
3. The otherworld is original worldbuilding: a Nordic-inspired town.
Upcoming novel Winning the Death Game with My Saintly Heart, blurb:
Outsmarting | Mind Games | Death Game | Survival | Infinite-Loop Fiction
Naili has been a well-behaved girl for over a decade. After the college entrance exams, she was ready to follow the plan and attend the teacher's college her parents had chosen for her. But a terrifying tabletop game at a class reunion pulls her into a deadly game called “Eden.”
[Eden Game Rules]
[Failure or breaking the rules will result in immediate death]
At first, Naili thinks it's just a prank, until she witnesses a rule-breaker fall into an abyss.
She realizes it's all real.
[Extracting skill...]
[Your personal skill is “White Knight.” Once during a game, you can save any one player sentenced to execution. The player you save cannot lie to you again during that game, or they will be executed.]
She can save people! Naili seizes on a glimmer of hope.
But when she thinks about it calmly, this skill isn't all that great. Saving someone else is basically a blank skill for her, isn't it?
[The game is about to begin. This round's game: “Rustcore Impostor.” Number of players to be executed: 5-7]
Everything around her begins to collapse. She sees seven other players, all just as panicked as she is. The first game begins...
At first, Naili seems like a crybaby and a pretty face, someone who wins by latching onto powerful players. She's also a little too saintly, unable to bear watching players kill each other and wanting to help everyone.
It isn't until the powerful players who have tangled with her die one after another that the others realize something is wrong.
Months later, Naili skillfully uses her power to save the so-called top players, gaining partners who will remain loyal to her throughout the game. Then, numb and detached, she pushes them into the execution arena, saying softly through tears,
“I'm sorry. I never meant to hurt anyone. This game forced me to do it.”
Then she wipes the blood from herself and enters the next game.
No one could have imagined that the gaming novice, the pretty face entangled with all those men, the coward with a universally acknowledged useless skill and an overabundance of saintly compassion, would defeat all those powerful players and become the final winner.
In this Eden, full of schemes, slaughter, and betrayal, she must bravely take up a knife, win the games, and survive through her own strength.
Then escape.
[Healer skill, played like an assassin]
[The rules never said the people you save have to stay alive, did they?]
Theme: The goodness and beauty of humanity
That thin lady is quite interesting. She is thin and dressed in ordinary clothes, but she has no stage fright and is very determined. She can be regarded as a kind of heroic hero to Yuli.
It was so beautiful that I finished reading it in one go 😭
Author, you chose the title of this novel so well. It feels like a Western fantasy fairy tale.
The teacher updated four chapters in one day 🙏 🙏 so powerful
I always thought that the deceased bell watcher was also an outsider, so I thought that the heroine no longer had bad intentions! Let me just say it quietly, I feel that even if the outside child adopted by Allen is not the mastermind behind the scenes, it is at least related to the Black Bear Project (either an adult turned into a child through means, or a dwarf in disguise? When I was a child, I read novels about adult dwarfs pretending to be orphans and stealing property from the adoptive family, hahaha)
I think it's the letter sent by the male protagonist [Cai Dog]
Write quickly, this setting is so delicious
Do you think the author's writing is smooth and natural? Reading very smoothly
"Maita is not that simple. She knows that to capture a woman's heart, you must first capture her stomach." This is a big bug for the author~ It's Maita
Ruiti, are you obsessed with money? The cute little boy just wants to dance with you
