Rule Horror: The Lover in the Mirror Is the Boss

[Rules-based horror + infinite instances + obsessive BOSS romance + clever heroine] A flash of white streaked across a shattered mirror, and Lin Qingxi plunged from a psychiatric hospital into a rules-based horror game. Her first instance was “The Romance Observation Center.” A cold voice over the loudspeaker announced the rules: Never refuse your lover’s requests. Anyone who tries to escape will turn into scarlet fireworks. Everyone fought desperately to survive. Veteran players watched like tigers waiting to pounce, and danger lurked in every shadow. To avoid being manipulated by villains, she brought out an urn and cleverly defused the crisis. But she never imagined that the final BOSS of every instance would be the person online who had given her a name: her own boyfriend. Lu Zijin emerged from the shadows and held out his hand. “Qingxi, come dance with me.” Amid countless deadly rules and cages, a dangerous romance quietly takes root.
