Bound to a Mad Villain After I Died, I Found Out He Had a Secret Crush on Me

[A novel world awakens + an obsessive, love-addled male lead + mutual secret crushes, both virgins + sweet romance]

Three months after dying in a car accident, Su Qingju woke up as a ghost bound to the side of the person she had a crush on.

After entering the room reserved for her in Lu Dong’s home, she learned that Lu Dong loved her, but she was already dead.

Just as she was relieved that Lu Dong didn’t know she loved him, he drew up a will naming her as his heir.

She thought Lu Dong had lost his mind.

When Lu Dong saw her, she promptly suggested they date. She wanted to make him hate her.

Lu Dong was steady and reserved, so she made him call her “Baby,” clung to him for kisses, touched his abs, and bit his Adam’s apple.

Lu Dong was a workaholic, so she deliberately disrupted his work.

But she waited and waited, and Lu Dong never came to hate her.

Only later did she learn that this was a world in a novel. She was the best friend who died early, and Lu Dong was the deranged villain.

At the moment she died, Lu Dong awakened to his own consciousness and struck a deal with the author: if he followed the plot to its conclusion, she could come back to life.

But Lu Dong would die at the end of the novel.

She didn’t want him to die...

She wanted to give up...

He loved Su Qingju, but he wanted her to hide away, wanted to be the only one in her eyes and heart, wanted her world to contain only him, wanted her to have no choice but to depend on him.

A despicable, dark-hearted man like him didn’t deserve Su Qingju, so he went to a psychiatrist and took medication. But before he could get better, Su Qingju died right in front of him.

He wouldn’t accept it. He wanted Su Qingju alive, even if it meant he had to die.
