The Impoverished, Cold-Faced Top Student Dominates the Academy

[An icy-faced, top student with an exceptionally high sense of self-worth, adored by everyone, 1v1]

Welcome to Roland Private School, home to three famous attractions:

The repeatedly locked gym, the security cameras that often malfunction, and someone even more terrifying than either of those: a certain scholarship student.

That would be Yan Qing, class monitor and teaching assistant of Class D.

He tops the rankings year after year in the bottom-of-the-barrel class of slackers. Good grades are one thing, but his manners are...

Never mind.

He has a model's build and a powerful grip. He once made Class D's toughest troublemaker recite the school rules while spinning around. Pale skin, a high nose bridge, long outer eye corners. When he looks at people without expression, twenty young masters from wealthy families sit up straight as if they're in military training.

Yan Qing took the school's money, so he does a proper job of after-school tutoring.

Five hundred per person per lesson. He deserves it.

Who else could keep this bunch of losers in line?

During break, with Yan Qing gone, the losers erupt into a racket.

The school soccer team captain pouts. "Yan Qing's got bad eyesight, doesn't he? These shoes of mine are so ugly, and he still said they looked good."

The school board chairwoman's daughter pushes up her glasses and rolls her eyes discreetly. "What he actually said was, 'Move your shoes. Watch where you're going, and don't block the way.'"

"The class monitor's got such a temper... mean and weird."

"Tell me about it. When he's grading homework and finds a good answer, he even draws a smiley face beside it to cheer the kid up."

A young master nearby sees right through them. "You're all a bunch of masochists. The Grim Reaper calls the roll, and you think you're getting a like. I would never be like..."

"Isn't your WeChat profile picture the class monitor's hand?"

The young master stammers.

Ji Huai, the scholarship student who witnessed everything through the window: "..."

It was his first day transferring to Roland Academy.

He had been reborn.

In his previous life, he offended the school's big shots and was bullied. The night before the college entrance exam, they beat him up again, shattering the bones in his fingers.

He could have gone to a top university.

He spent three years lying low, killing his bullies one by one, then shot himself before the police arrived.

...He was reborn. What a pain.

He had to kill them all over again.

Who knew that most of the names on his revenge list had already been expelled for "poor character" or "bad grades." Yan Qing had been behind all of it.

The nobody who had envied Ji Huai's grades and enabled his bullies in his previous life had become a class monitor who punished evil and upheld justice in this one.

Ji Huai was surprised.

Ji Huai was excited.

Ji Huai hid his homemade bullets and knocked on the door to Class D once more...

Reader's guide:

1. Beloved-by-everyone, hugely popular bottom. His personality is awful and he's gorgeous, so he gets pursued relentlessly. Read with caution.

2. Ji Huai is the top. The main couple's dynamic is roughly: sour face × shameless flirt.
