Grand Tutor Mo Says He Won’t Agree

Mo Jingchun spent his whole life cautious and upright, keeping his head down and following the rules. The one thing he never should have done was answer when that strange creature (System) appeared, letting it latch onto him. Strange creature (System): Please complete the task! Mo Jingchun: No, thank you. Whatever occult nonsense this is, get away from me! Strange creature (System): Task failed. Sending punishment Please remember to receive Task Two in time Mo Jingchun: ... He looked down at his soaked chest and said expressionlessly, “I refuse.” Damn it, this is an insult to propriety! The next day, the Crown Prince stepped into the hall and sensed something amiss. How had the usually dignified, solemn, proper tutor acquired such a sweet, milky scent? Mo Jingchun glanced at the Crown Prince. Mo Jingchun glanced at the Crown Prince, who was unruly and acted without restraint. Mo Jingchun glanced again at the unruly, reckless Crown Prince, who seemed to be watching him with an inscrutable expression. Mo Jingchun: “...I agree.” ...He regretted underestimating how many tricks that strange creature had up its sleeve! [Reader advisory: Both leads are non-binary.

Hantan Academy was the dream school of scholars throughout the dynasties. Its students were all from wealthy or powerful families, except Yang Yan, who got in because his legitimate older brother had gone mad. Now Yang Yan understood why this opportunity had landed in his lap. Luckily, the story had only just begun. He still had plenty of time to avoid the plot. After all, just looking at the original story was enough to make him faint... The other protagonist, the one who gives love, was a deranged monster who did every evil imaginable. Nalan Jin, the protagonist who gives love. The current emperor's youngest brother, sent by the emperor to Hantan Academy to teach him some discipline. Instead, everyone there became his playthings. As the protagonist who receives love, Yang Yan would be the toy he cherished most. Yang Yan: He's too dangerous. I'll just stay out of his way. 02 Nalan Jin had known since childhood that this world was no more than the world of a book, and that he was its protagonist. After all, there had been so many people trying to kill him since he was little that even his emperor of a brother couldn't take it anymore and sent him off to Hantan Academy. Those people who claimed to have transmigrated into a book were disgusting and cowardly. They were easy to destroy and not much fun. Nalan Jin was tired of killing them, until one day a transmigrator couldn't take his torment any longer and spilled a tremendous secret. There were two protagonists in this book. Besides Nalan Jin, there was another protagonist who was supposed to be entangled with him until death. Heh. Interesting. Nalan Jin gave a vicious, cruel smile. So there was another precious little treasure? But how had someone so interesting failed to appear even once in all the years since the story began? 03 Yang Yan had planned for every possibility, but he never imagined that, on top of the terrifying fact that the world was a novel, such frightening things as transmigrators would exist too. When Nalan Jin found him, only a few words remained in Yang Yan's mind: I'm! Doomed! Nalan Jin named him as his study companion. The protagonist who gives love was terrifying in the book, but in front of Yang Yan, though he was ill-tempered, he wasn't quite so extreme. Sometimes, he could even be a little cute. But it turned out that one moment of carelessness could cost him everything. When Yang Yan saw the transmigrators die one after another before his eyes, his face turned deathly pale. Nalan Jin tilted his head in confusion, cupped his face, and smiled. “Shouldn't you be standing by my side, darling?” After all, you and I are the only ones like each other in this world. 04 It was winter when Yang Yan faked his death and ran away. It was bitterly cold. Lying quietly in his coffin, he listened to the man raging and losing his temper, and yet he was soon filled with relief. At last, he would be free. Wait until he was buried, until he found a way to get away, until Yang Yan finally settled down and started a new life. Even then, those days continued to give him nightmares. He would wake in the middle of the night drenched in sweat. With the help of a friend, he hid in a small town, bought a home, and acquired a few acres of farmland. As he recovered and rebuilt his life, he slowly left that terror behind. Then one day, Yang Yan went out to the fields to weed, which he rarely did, and worked until a dizzy spell came over him. A hand reached out and steadied him. Suddenly, a terror he hadn't felt in a long time gripped Yang Yan's heart, making it pound wildly. No. The black spots in front of Yang Yan's eyes slowly, slowly faded. This couldn't be! He gradually made out the person in front of him, and at the same time, he heard his voice. “Yang Yan.” Just two words. Yang Yan felt as though every drop of blood in his body had frozen. All his nightmares, Nalan Jin, stood right in front of him. The demon slowly smiled at him, a frenzied, excited expression spreading across his pale face as he whispered like a ghost. “I found you.” His precious treasure. Note: The title and blurb may change. This is a melodramatic, coercive romance, with an extremely clichéd forced pursuit and possessive love! Theme: Face difficulties with courage, strive to improve yourself through danger, and save yourself!
