Synopsis
Lu Xing treats romantic devotion as a business transaction, masquerading as a devoted pursuer to various high-status women to accumulate wealth. His goal is purely financial, intending to abandon his professional simping once he reaches his target. This reads like a satirical take on the urban harem trope, blending elements of social manipulation with comedic irony. It is specifically for readers who enjoy cynical protagonists and the satisfaction of a role-reversal where the hunter becomes the hunted. Conversely, those seeking sincere emotional growth or a traditional romance should skip this title. The pacing is brisk, cycling through a diverse cast of female archetypes—from the cold professor to the fiery school bully—to keep the plot moving. The standout quality is the protagonist's unapologetic mercenary nature, which flips the typical devotion narrative on its head.

Editorial Review
As an editor, I find the premise refreshing. Turning the simp trope into a professional hustle provides a strong comedic hook that differentiates it from standard urban fantasies. The character archetypes are clear and provide a predictable but functional structure for the plot. However, the novel suffers from a lack of momentum and visibility. With only 90 chapters and almost no traction in views, it is difficult to determine if the execution lives up to the concept. The generic genre classification also suggests a lack of clear identity in the library. While the irony of the plot is a strength, the narrative feels like it might struggle to sustain its gimmick over a long run without deeper character development. It currently functions as a light, superficial read rather than a substantial story.
