Life as the Most Popular Person at the Sentinel Outpost

Yin Jiang is a humble A-rank guide. Every day, she diligently and dutifully purifies sentinels.

Her supervisor appreciates her work, and one day takes her out to broaden her horizons.

It's supposedly a very important meeting, attended by nothing but big shots.

Yin Jiang stands there dumbfounded, hands in her pockets, looking like a nobody.

One big shot after another makes an appearance.

Yin Jiang stands behind her supervisor, breaking out in a cold sweat.

That one is the sentinel she abandoned.

That one is the teacher she betrayed.

And there's the best friend she fell out with.

Wow, you all did so well after I left.

Yin Jiang knows four of the six legion commanders, not to mention their adjutants.

She has enough romantic entanglements to fill two mahjong tables.

Yin Jiang stands behind her supervisor, trying to make herself small and hoping they won't see her.

Maybe they really don't see her, but her supervisor still remembers that he brought her along to broaden her horizons.

He taps the table to draw everyone's attention, then pulls Yin Jiang forward and introduces her. "This is the star guide at our outpost. She's very promising. Her name is..."

"Yin Jiang," the big shots answer in unison.

Supervisor: ?

Yin Jiang wipes the sweat from her brow and puts on an innocent expression.

Because of her past experiences, Yin Jiang is sent to compete in the Clash of the Strongest.

At the opening ceremony, the team leaders from the other schools are all tall, burly S-rank sentinels. Standing among them, Yin Jiang, an I-rank guide, really stands out. She meets the empire marshal's dark, brooding gaze from the stands and smiles silently.

See? I made it all the way to stand before you.

Fair and square.

The scene at the time:

||| I |||

(Something like that)

To put it more directly:

A fluffy, self-loathing, dark-skinned, white-haired lamb, get!

A gorgeous little spider who's insecure about his spirit form, get!

A cold fox in public, a perfect homemaker in private, get!

A childhood friend with abandonment issues after being left behind, get!

A voyeuristic, gloomy man who can conceive on his own, get!

A disabled elder with unshakable resolve, get!

A story tailored to my tastes.

All the male characters are virgins. Every living male is a virgin.

[Important Content Warning]: A male character deliberately injures himself to compete for favor. If you can't handle scenes involving self-harm, or aren't interested in this kind of content, please read with caution.

A gentle woman who transmigrated into another world x a variety of sentinels.

If you like healing and redemption, the heroine has a slight white-knight streak.

I'm open to writing advice. My tastes are too broad for me to be sure what might be a deal-breaker, so I'll add any warnings I receive to the blurb.

After the completed-story ranking event ends, I'll revise the story. The content won't change; I'll mainly improve the wording and fix typos.

The bonus chapters will cover each love interest and foreshadowing that didn't come up in the main story. They're all free bonus chapters, no need to pay ovo.

Here's another upcoming story: You Should've Told Me, I'd Have Done It Sooner

Fei Nan decides to kill himself.

He's already climbed over the highway overpass, ready to leap and leave the world with one last thing to talk about.

Unexpectedly, a brash, streetwise woman drags him back down.

She hugs him and tries to comfort him, squeezing so tightly that Fei Nan can barely breathe.

Too tight. He even starts crying.

The two sit on the curb and talk about everything under the sun.

The woman does all the talking, while Fei Nan stares at the ground.

What could he say...

Talk about his dysfunctional family, school bullying, and academic pressure?

"That's it?" the woman says with a grin.

Only then does Fei Nan realize he's accidentally said what was on his mind.

The woman takes him to her internet cafe, where he spends the night.

The next day, the people who bullied him get beaten up.

Then his gambling-addicted father gets a sack thrown over his head.

After that, a nervous tutoring instructor adjusts his glasses and starts teaching Fei Nan the key points for civil service interviews.

Who knows where Xie Xiaoye dug up that guy.

Oh, Xie Xiaoye is the woman who saved Fei Nan.

She dropped out of high school, has no proper job, and spends all day shuffling around in flip-flops, teasing cats and dogs.

She speaks crudely, has messy blond hair, and gets along great with a bunch of hooligans.

She embodies every flaw society looks down on.

But Fei Nan loves her.

A sweet modern-day romance: a carefree but clever and reliable heroine x a hero whose "dad gambles, mom ran away, home is broken, and he's pitiful"

Theme: Society can't function without every single cog.
