Lin Xinlan didn’t want to waste words with him and turned to leave.
"If you manage to beat the game, I can agree to one thing for you," Rong Shaoze suddenly threw out a bait.
Lin Xinlan’s steps faltered, tempted.
She turned back and asked uncertainly, "Can you agree to anything?"
"You’re thinking too beautifully. I will only agree to things that I permit you to do."
"Could I go out alone for a few days to clear my mind?"
Stroking his chin, Rong Shaoze thought for a moment and then nodded, "This can be agreed to, but it must not exceed four days."
"Fine, I’ll play," Lin Xinlan said, taking her computer upstairs.
She indeed rarely played games and didn’t know how to play.
But this game didn’t look very difficult.
The screen opened up to a beautiful, dreamy starlight scene.
Following the prompts and walkthrough, Lin Xinlan discovered that this was a game where the female protagonist chooses her own Prince Charming.
Every day, the protagonist’s task was to decide how to dress and apply makeup, go shopping, and then date different types of men designed in the game.
She would dine with them, chat, and participate in entertainment activities.
In the process of dating, different men would say different things and do different things.
Some actions were romantic, some were heartwarming, some were touching, and some were annoying.
It was up to the protagonist to choose; if she liked him, she would continue the relationship, if not, she would move on to the next man.
The walkthrough stated that you could only beat the game by finding your ideal person.
Lin Xinlan, wanting to beat the game, randomly chose a man to date.
No matter what the man said or did, she chose to like it.
Soon, the game ended, and the pre-set dialogues between them ceased.
Lin Xinlan thought she had beaten the game, but then several flashing lines of text appeared on the screen.
’Your criteria for choosing a partner are too simple and he is not the Prince Charming of your dreams. Please replay.’
She froze for a moment, speechless.
With no other choice, she played again. This time, she tried dating a few men before selecting a gentle and steady man as her Prince Charming.
The game ended, and as she waited to beat it, several flashing lines of text appeared on the screen again.
’This man lacks courage and is unworthy of a beautiful princess like you. Please restart.’
Lin Xinlan was so angry she felt like smashing the computer. This approach didn’t work, that approach didn’t work, what exactly was needed to beat the game!
If it weren’t for the chance to go out a few days, she wouldn’t have bothered to play.
Lin Xinlan suppressed her anger and decided to try once more.
Learning from her previous attempts, she played carefully this time, discarding any man who showed the slightest bit of unreasonableness.
With her stringent requirements, she selected the most perfect man to be her Prince Charming and waited happily to beat the game.
But the result was disappointing. The screen displayed a few lines of text once more, with even more infuriating content.
’The perfect man exists only in your fantasies, your choice is unrealistic. Seeing as you’ve played three times without beating the game, it is necessary to remind you that your taste needs improvement. Please self-improve for three days, and then replay.’
Then, the game automatically exited. Lin Xinlan was stunned, her irritation so severe she could feel her nose becoming crooked.
When she tried to open the game again, the prompt still read that she could play after three days.
Heavens, she really had to wait three days to play again!
