After Mistaking the Brooding Male Side Character for the System

Lin Qinghuan's System glitched and vanished.

Fortunately, Lin Qinghuan was clever. Using the clues left behind by the System, a vision impairment and a jade pendant, she "perfectly matched" them to her junior fellow disciple, an unnamed supporting male character. She never doubted her intuition, firmly believing that her junior fellow disciple was the System.

Lin Qinghuan spent her days with him, looking after him in every way. She did everything she could to cure his vision impairment and worked hard to find the other half of the jade pendant.

Lin Qinghuan thought she could finally start her mission to win over the male lead.

Just then, the System suddenly appeared. Only then did Lin Qinghuan belatedly realize that she'd mistaken her junior fellow disciple for the System all this time.

Lin Qinghuan's mouth twitched. It's fine, it's fine. He's just an unnamed supporting character. She could run away now and everything would be fine.

The night Lin Qinghuan ran away, her junior fellow disciple descended from the sky, something in his hand. His gaze was icy, brimming with murderous intent. "Qingqing, you said before that you wanted to win someone over. Was it him?"

She looked closely and saw that what he held was the male lead's bloodied head.

Lin Qinghuan screamed. Help! What kind of person had she gotten involved with?

Only later did Lin Qinghuan learn that her junior fellow disciple was no unnamed supporting character. On the surface, he was a gentleman, but in reality, he was Jiang Huai'an, the sinister, unhinged villain from the original story, a man whose name struck terror into everyone's hearts.

Lin Qinghuan felt so capable, never realizing that from the moment she took him on the journey to find the jade pendant, he had followed behind her like a shadowy ghost, staying by her side and killing one after another of the people who tried to approach her.

By the time Lin Qinghuan realized how serious things were, Jiang Huai'an had already locked her in an underground chamber.

"You were the one who started this, Qingqing. You slept with me, and now you're running away without taking responsibility?"

Heavens above, she hadn't slept with him. It was all a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding!

Jiang Huai'an gave her no chance to explain. He advanced step by step. "Do you really think you can get away, Qingqing?"

--

From the day he was born, Jiang Huai'an was a half-demon of low status.

His terrifying appearance made people despise him. Wherever he went, everyone spat at him and shouted for him to be beaten.

As a child, Jiang Huai'an had already been plotting how to destroy the world.

But when the day came to destroy it, a girl fell from the sky and blocked all the demonic energy he unleashed, sending it back at him. She also carried the only piece of his broken scale armor.

Interesting.

At first, Jiang Huai'an was merely curious about the secrets she was hiding, so he pretended to be kind and stayed by her side. Once he figured it out, he would kill her and continue destroying the world.

Jiang Huai'an never expected that later, he would give up the plan he'd cherished since childhood to destroy the world, all because the girl called him "junior fellow disciple."

In its place came a new plan: to use every means possible to keep her by his side, so he could watch over her every day and stay close to her without ever leaving.

Even if it cost him his life, Jiang Huai'an would gladly offer it with both hands, and consider it a delight.

A sweet, puppy-like green tea boy on the surface, a sinister, rabid dog in private x a clueless, precious girl

P.S. Please don't apply this sort of male lead to real life!
