When Bai Xun was bored, she downloaded a dating game recommended by a friend.

Then… excuse me, was there such a function?

She was thrown into the game and the only way to return home was to maintain ambiguous relationships with seven different types of men.

So the only way to clear this mission was to gain the hearts of all seven men?

After countless deaths, Bai Xun finally realized that the only way to survive was for her to play an innocent and naive girl in front of the capture targets…

10/10. My fav novel. It was so fun to read. I got excited and almost cried. All the MLs were great. When they were sad, my heart ached for them. I couldn't get it out of my mind when I stared reading this novel. FL is a white lotus... and I love it. She's so clever, cunning, and scheming. One of the best FLs I've read. The beginning got me hooked immediately. The first arc was a little boring but after going through half of the first arc, I was... more>> just addicted. This was so fun to read. <<less

Not gonna lie I skipped a little on one of the arcs because I wasn't too fond of it but her final act at the last arc made me cry lol she really is an amazing actress, no wonder she could step on 7 boats ... more>>
Spoiler

well 8 actually, I don't know why they forgot the female capture target at the end🤷‍♀️

[collapse]
. I enjoyed it and I personally do believe it was a HE but I'm not sure if everyone will think so since it not your typical HE.

But I understand why it wouldn't be your typical HE because she was has been tortured by the MLs 999 times before this so I was prepared for a unconventional ending.

Spoiler

any sympathy or feelings she may have developed when she first started the game are gone. She herself has mentioned in passing that she has hardened her heart and is no longer affected by some of their actions since she's been tortured by them all before. Which is to say that in the beginning she was affected and it probably caused her death

[collapse]

Poor girl at this time was probably just done and not interested in being too kind and forgetting how easily they hurt her for revenge. In a way what she did in the end was nicer. Because she had other option to clear the game.
Spoiler

she forgave them all and asked them to live well even if it was for the sake of losing the blackening value and you gotta admit-girl committed 100%.

[collapse]

I definitely recommend it. I laughed so much because of her inner monologue lol calling herself a b*, etc. Her schemes were on point too 💯💯 <<less

Ugh, this novel is very *chef's kiss* SO good. Well maybe because I just finished it today. I love the MlLs/FL and their arcs, but I really wanted more interaction between the last ML and the MC. And of course our lovely MC, I love how she's a two-faced black lotus.

Some similar pseudo-lotuses are Yu Qingyao from Kill that Man and Bai Weiwei from Quick Transmigration: Male God, Come Over (well kinda)

First of all, Thank you to the translator! ❤❤ I loved this story so much! The Drama. The MLs and specially our FL!

Honestly if this wasn't a Game setting novel, with our FL mostly several steps ahead of MLs and having complete control of her emotions, I wouldn't be able to handle it. It would be too much drama and angst for me. So it made me appreciate our FL even more.

She was just Amazing! There were so many times I was yelling "White Lotus b*tch" at my mobile screen with... more>> excitement! Confusing the people around me who didn't know why I was cussing and what White Lotus even meant ??

I liked the ending too. I feel like it was good considering the world she went was never real and neither were the MLs. So the way author gave this a happy ending with MLs yet keeping our FL happy who wanted to go back to the real world was really nice

So 5/5 from me ❤❤

I hope I can find more novels similar to this! ?❤? <<less

If you view this novel as a parody of the all usual cliches present in a mix of Asian dog's blood melodramas aimed at female audiences, it basically becomes the funniest story in the whole wide world. Bai Xiao Xun, our intrepid and cunning minx of a heroine, does an amazing job of exploit her White Lotus purer-than-pure heroine aura in her attempt to capture 7 male leads (and 1 bonus female rival!) who are each patterned after all the familiar hunky male hero stereotypes. And the author has a... more>> hilarious way of exploiting ridiculous cliches (like the suddenly-got-amnesia-after-trauma and constantly-under-assault cliches) throughout the whole series, making it an absolutely scream.

Bai Xiao Xun is an absolutely awesome, genre-savvy, and quick-witted heroine I couldn't help but love... and even though a lot of her male leads were seriously crazy yanderes, it was a never-ending joy to see them get manipulated by her canny hands. Plus, since the series is fully completed at 96 chapters, it doesn't have a chance to wear out its welcome. It has a nice, definite ending to look forward to!

My only quibble is that the very first arc -- the school arc -- is kinda slow and almost lost my interest. Bai Xiao Xun doesn't do much besides act like a fragile wilting flower in that arc, which isn't all that interesting. But if you can just hold on until that arc finishes and she enters the "real world, " things heat up remarkably fast. So keep reading, even if the series has a rather slow start! <<less

This is really one of the best novel I read. Quite different from the other game setting / migration type of plots. You can’t help to sometime feel sorry for the ML but you can’t help to cheer on FL as she steps on ruthlessly to the ML hearts. (Can’t blame her, she died so many times, I just wondered how strong her mentality are to keep herself intact from all those psychological and psychical pain) I laugh and I cried while reading this. You cannot help to sympathise... more>> with all the characters. The writing style also quite fascinating. There is a inner dialogue as well as the character dialogue which confused at 1st but then it’s make sense. The translator is 100% awesome. Thank you so much. I have enjoyed this story immensely. <<less

Bai Xun is such a refreshing character and brings quite some laughs to the whole story. I’m not a big fan of the ending to be honest, but it’s a good short read. Novi has done a great job with the TLs~

This is a really interesting read! Intelligent, ruthless, beautiful FL whose sole mission is to complete the mission by capturing all the ML targets and get home! She knows all the tips and tricks around all the ML scenarios already from the 100s of trials and errors in the past where she ended up getting killed by blackened MLs (not spoiler since this gets covered within the first chapters).

Warning! This is not a romance novel!

Recommend!

This type of FL is my favourite. Cunning sly manipulative character who knows how to play a role to get what she wants. At times it seems she is a bit too cruel, however it’s justified when you realise those characters have mu*dered her 999 times in the past (I would’ve definitely gone insane by then). I loved the character arcs, they were very interesting and other times hilarious. The ending was also decently wrapped up, although I wish there was more chapters on her life with them since author... more>> left the ending a bit open ended. Otherwise, this is one of the better reverse harem series I’ve read :) <<less

It's a quick and light-hearted read. Even though the MC is a white lotus I loved her so much lol.

She is so funny and I especially adored her quick wits and acting skills. And I liked the fact that she's not emotionally attached to the male leads.

There's not really much to say about the male leads, I don't dislike them but I'm not particularly fond of any of them either.

The arcs in the story was good, and the story itself compressed of a few cliche troupes that was made enjoyable... more>> to read because of the MC. It was so funny seeing her acting in front of the male leads when her thoughts differed from what she said or do.

All in all, this is a good novel to pass the time. <<less

Awesome story, laughed, cried and cheared. Great protagonist and very coherent when you remember that for her it's all a game she is desperately trying to beat after 999 defeats.

Truly don't know how to rate it 😭 Just finished it and it was incredible but completely different from any reverse harem I every saw.

I mean don't expect ... more>>
Spoiler

a polygamy routine, except from the end.

[collapse]
a sweet novel with true romance.

She's cunning, truly smart, crazy... And even though they were some plot holes
Spoiler

like the fact we don't know what happened in her 100 previous games and the fact she never lost her mind or we don't know why she couldn't just be happy in that world with one guy

It was Okay but unfortunately less interesting that I would Thought. The MC is ruthless and clever but the fact that she play innocent 24/7 was a bit boring. She was like the antagoniste in QT, the innocent girl that everyone liked without reason

This story was ridiculous. She finished the book well. Although, the story was quite dramatic, it was one hell of a roller coaster ride. It was very unique since she had a female capture target. It's been fun and now the story has ended.

This is one of the best QT novels I've read. MC is really smart, correctly assesses the situation and makes reasonable choices.

Spoiler

MC will choose to return to the real world with money, instead of acting like other girls and staying with these crazy guys. I love her for that. For the first time I meet an MC who is so reasonable. For me, it was the best ending possible.

I love it! Always have loved a scheming protagonist and she really did work hard until the end, honestly I would have given up before 100 attempts were even reached, I really applaud her.

Spoiler

I also love the fact that she stayed firm and went back to her real world, some MC would be soft hearted but I guess she had failed 999 attempts and I couldn't imagine what she had gone through

[collapse]

All in all, it's a good read, recommended!

i typically like reading about cunning green tea MCs, but the harem was a bit too much for my taste. Too shallow. And not realistic (how is everyone just so attracted to her innocent act? Seems like the protagonist halo). Maybe it's just a personal taste.

I just want to first say that if this novel didn't have the transmigration theme and the protagonist this would've been the most insufferable dog blooded novel I ever read. Thank god that it's not. There are plot twists every 2 seconds, and every annoying cliche you can think of (memory loss, father giving MC 5 mil so she can leave his son, etc.) can be found in this book. It's done very well though, but it will definitely give you a headache.

The MC carried this story. Her white lotus... more>> antics were hilarious, and her side comments about what was going on in the plot was so funny. I just wish her side comments appeared more frequently because it's easy to forget she's not actually the white lotus character she portrays herself as in the beginning arc, but it gets better as the story goes on. She's very smart and I enjoyed watching her execute her plan to capture all the MLs + FL.

By the way, all the MLs are tr*sh, excluding Su Shi (he didn't do anything wrong!). There's a lot of dubious consent in this novel, so content warning for that. It shows how tr*shy the MLs are. The FL lead was ok, but when she got close to the MC during the office arc there was a bit of dubious consent which definitely downgraded my opinion on her. I still enjoyed her character though. Also her arc was REALLY short. She's definitely not the worst of all the MLs, when they

Spoiler

broke her foot and killed her during their first meeting (Pei Yan), ruined her career by framing her (Lu Zhi Yao), got the MC fired from her job and made her homeless (Lu Zhi Yuan), extremely possessive and just used her as a toy (Qin Feng), gave the MC rabies by trapping her in a dog cage and the dog bit her (Feng Chi)

[collapse]

Poor MC. Even though she used all of the romance interests so she could leave to go back to her own world, she died 999 times before this to each of the MLs. I would have no love for them if I experienced the same thing. MC really has a strong mental backbone to not go insane from everything she went through in the book. Then again, she died 999 times before this so I think she isn't very strong in the mental department to begin with.

I feel like the final arc was very rushed though. The last 2 MLs are supposed to be hard to conquer and I felt like they fell in love with her too fast. I also wish Pei Yan got more screentime. Oh well, the novel was a satisfying read anyway. The ending is a real tragedy though, she

Spoiler

after the MC makes it to the real world, all the MLs commit su*cide in the house where she supposedly died in. Every time she dreams, she makes it back to the game world in an alternate reality where she got better and all the MLs + FLs get along. The world only moves when she's asleep, but the game characters still have consciousness when she is awake. It makes me shudder to think about.... Poor MC.

[collapse]

I will definitely reread this again. I definitely recommend reading this as a time waster, I finished it in 2 days. <<less

I remember picking up this novel about a year ago and dropped it because I didn't like the scheming MC... But a day ago I saw it again and had nothing better to read so I picked it up again.

And fml... Why haven't I read this till now?

Sigh... Everything in the story is satisfying... Although the yandere part didn't really satisfy my dark M heart... There wasn't enough deranged dog blood in it for me to be 100% satisfied.

There's also the issue of how MC can easily break off the... more>> relationship with people... I swear the capture targets IQ reduced the higher their love for her was...

Like for some parts I just didn't understand how no one questioned her about her actions... Maybe I'm half asleep when reading this and misunderstood some parts?

Anyways... Still I rather enjoy this... an easy read with no plot twists or saddening drama... Well apart from near the end... That was a lil sad...

Also I got a little confused at the ending...

I feel like it would've been better if
Spoiler

the author had transfered the capture targets into MCs real world with their memories intact and if they want to continue to pursue her they can or they can find new love...

I like reverse harem but thinking that these guys were probably influenced by the system to love the MC...

Sigh x10...

Just think that these guys probably could find someone better.

No I think it's even better if their memories were wiped and someone effing compensate all of them with someone who really cares and loves them...

But at the same time I get that MC lived so many lives and probably loved each one of them at some point...

But in the end she had a motive to approach them and the motive wasn't beneficial to the capture targets in the end...

F##& just give these guys real love!!!
