Lying Flat in My First Year of High School: My Pen Name Shakes the Web-Novel World

[Reborn] [Copycat Author] [Campus] [Lighthearted Daily Life] [No System] [One Female Lead]

Who could have guessed that "Mozhou," the author behind the viral Battle Through the Heavens scene where "Xiao Yan divorces his wife," the writer whose Run Wild topped the youth fiction bestseller list, and the Hugo Award winner for The Three-Body Problem, was actually Lu Yan, a first-year student at Mingcheng No. 1 High School?

At first, all he wanted after being reborn was to quietly copy books and lie flat. Instead, the moment the third chapter of Battle Through the Heavens updated with "Xiao Yan divorces his wife," comments on the novel's review page topped a thousand in a single day.

Run Wild landed a 100,000-copy first printing as soon as he submitted it, and sold out instantly when presales opened. Then he started Lord of the Mysteries, and even a simple change to the "teahouse gathering" setup got science-fiction bloggers reposting it like crazy!

The only one who saw through his secret identity from the start was his deskmate, Su Qingran. When he accidentally sent his draft to the class group chat, she dug out five handwritten versions to explain, "This is original. I helped him revise it for half a month."

When Run Wild made her cry through half a pack of tissues, she said with red eyes, "You made Jiang Cheng and Gu Fei's happy ending feel so real."

She even secretly drew a cartoon force field and stuck it beside his computer when he stayed up late writing The Three-Body Problem, afraid of aliens.

Lu Yan looked at Su Qingran as she handed him her notebook of missed questions and decided to stop hiding it. "Since you already know, how about being the first person to read every book I write from now on?"
