In the heart of a rainy Chengdu, Yu Liang, a 21-year-old office worker, lives a quiet, lonely life—stuck between low pay, cold noodles, and nights filled with the distant sounds of intimacy he’s never tasted. A ghost in the crowd, forgotten by time, he moves through each day numb, invisible, and broke.
But one cold morning, everything shifts.
Without warning, a strange voice whispers in his mind:
> "DreamNode successfully installed."
What begins as a harmless system evolves into something far more complex—guiding Liang not with cheat codes or sudden riches, but through small, intimate missions that touch the deepest corners of human desire, emotion, and growth. Each task is subtle—smile, flirt, understand, feel—and each reward reveals another layer of himself.
As he navigates friendships, lust, temptation, jealousy, and financial pressure, Liang begins to unravel not only the mystery of the system but also the truth buried in his own heart.
This isn’t a story of instant success or fantasy romance.
It’s about slow burn seduction, daily struggles, complicated sexual entanglements, and the unpredictable rhythm of urban life.
Real. Raw. Romantic.
And maybe…
just maybe, DreamNode isn’t here to change his life.
Maybe it’s here to teach him how to live.
