After the Yandere Villain Redeems Himself, the Male Lead Turns Dark

The novel Wei Qing has been a massive hit recently — it started off explosively popular but ended up getting flooded with negative reviews. And there’s only one reason: the evil author treats the male lead, Wei Qing, worse than a dog, torturing him mercilessly from start to finish. The true culprit behind Wei Qing’s tragic life? None other than the knife-worthy, yandere villain in the story. Nian Xia never dreamed that one day, the heavy task of saving the novel’s male lead would fall on his shoulders. Worse yet, he didn’t just transmigrate into the novel — he landed right in the body of that very yandere villain. When the system kindly explained the importance and necessity of saving the male lead, Nian Xia raised his hand, politely interrupting: “You make a good point, but I have a question: What exactly do you think the first step should be, right at this moment?” On the bed lay a mess of blankets. Under his hand was the school uniform Wei Qing had just been pulled into his arms with. Nian Xia dragged his gaze away from that pale, slender waist and clenched his fists expressionlessly. “Hello, dear system? Are you still there?” The system silently pulled the plug and vanished without a trace. Nian Xia: “…” Crap. Time to delete this account and start over. Because he couldn’t break character, Nian Xia was forced to live the life of a yandere with latent psychopathic tendencies. One second, he’d be locking someone in a dark room, coldly sneering that no one would come to save them; the next second, he’d be rolling up his sleeves to study the nutritional balance of their dinner. One moment, he’d be threatening Wei Qing that if he dared to make other friends, he’d have people beat them up; the next, he’d be pulling every string to get the teachers to assign Wei Qing a well-mannered, top-performing deskmate. By the time Wei Qing finally got into university and went abroad for further study, Nian Xia let out a long sigh of relief. Wiping away his tears, he turned around and happily washed his hands of the past, ready to become a model citizen again. Years later, at a school reunion, Nian Xia patted the shoulder of a certain now-famous rising business star and beamed, “Wei Qing, my good buddy! We were just young and foolish back then, don’t take it to heart, brother.” But before the night was over, he was cornered in the bathroom by that same “good buddy,” who now carried an icy, ascetic aura. “Young and foolish, huh?” With eyes darkened under the influence of alcohol, Wei Qing pinned Nian Xia’s wrists behind his back, leaning close to his ear with a soft laugh: “Nian Xia, this time, you’re not getting away from me — unless I’m dead.” Hearing the exact same threatening tone he himself used to throw around in the past, Nian Xia’s hair stood on end in an instant. Nian Xia: “?!!” What the hell — who’s the real yandere here?! #WhenAFakeYandereMeetsARealYandere #HeReallyScaredTheCrapOutOfMe Pairing: Wei Qing (Gong / Top) × Nian Xia (Shou / Bottom)
