A Handsome Asian Man Is Coveted by Horror Characters

Gifted horror novelist Lu Zhen is an inconspicuous nobody at an American high school.

West Virginia is isolated and rife with racial discrimination. Violent crimes happen all the time.

The only Asian student in the school, Lu Zhen is cautious and reserved. He spends every day wearing black-rimmed glasses and a baseball cap, doing his best to avoid trouble.

But his beautiful face and distinctive East Asian features are impossible to hide. The students who covet him are itching to make a move, constantly targeting and bullying him with cruel tactics.

Until the horror story he wrote comes true.

Novel One: The Chainsaw Killer in the Cabin in the Woods

Deep in the Appalachian Mountains lies a mysterious forest. Seeking a thrill, the popular captain of the school football team drives into the woods with several friends to explore.

The nasty boys have ulterior motives. They shove Lu Zhen along with them, knowing he doesn't dare refuse, all the while ignoring the huge shadow following close behind.

Then the furious killer appears, chainsaw in hand, dragging them into a cabin in the woods and picking them off one by one.

The survivors struggle desperately, covered in blood. On instinct, they shove the inconspicuous Lu Zhen forward to take the hit.

Pale and stiff with terror, Lu Zhen stumbles straight into the killer's arms.

An arm wraps around his waist and slowly tightens. He is pressed onto the killer's thigh, the enormous difference in their size making him look like a pretty doll.

The killer removes his mask, revealing a handsome face with blond hair and blue eyes.

He tilts his head, pinches Lu Zhen's cheek, then leans in and takes a deep sniff. His voice is hoarse with fervor:

"Master?"

Lu Zhen: ...?

.

Lu Zhen gave them life and intelligence. He is their creator, their maker, their god, their... master.

They are grateful to their master, yet trapped in his novels, unable to leave.

As the days pass and longing takes hold, they begin to hate him, even as greedy desires slowly grow within them.

Until the world of the novels connects to reality.

"Master, we've come to find you."

Reading Guide:

1. A genius bottom who seems adorable and easy to bully, but is actually levelheaded and scheming × a nonhuman top who seems like a pervert but is actually even more of one

2. The novels and reality intersect, with forum-style sections

3. Not a BDSM novel

4. The author hasn't deleted any comments. If yours disappeared, it was probably swallowed by Jinjiang, so please don't blame the author (poor thing)

Check out the author's similar upcoming novel, After Playing the Killer, I Was Mistaken for the Mastermind:

A top movie star dies and unexpectedly transmigrates into Bai Fei, a washed-up young actor plagued by scandals.

To make matters worse, he gets bound to a system:

Only by continually killing people can he extend his life.

Bai Fei, a law-abiding citizen of the 21st century, says: Thanks, but no thanks. Killing is a hard no.

Until an audition calls for him to play a serial killer in a minor role.

Wearing a polite smile, he raises a chainsaw high, splatters blood everywhere, and charges toward the director.

The crew behind the camera go weak in the knees and collapse into a pale, terrified heap.

The director is scared out of his wits and cries, "Sir, please don't kill me!"

[Ding! Criminal mission complete. Successful kill. Life increased by 3 days.]

Bai Fei: ? You can trick it like this?

.

After discovering that his superb acting can fool the system, Bai Fei takes every killer role he can get to rack up more life.

A chainsaw-wielding serial killer, a killer with multiple personalities and a tragic past, a refined and depraved high-IQ serial murderer...

Armed with video footage of the killers' crimes provided by the system, his acting grows more and more convincing, and he becomes the first Asian actor to win multiple major international awards.

Passersby: "That didn't look like acting. Can someone investigate this properly?"

Fans: "Please, bro, play a good guy for once. You're practically marinated in villain roles!"

His methods are so realistic that the police keep taking Bai Fei in for questioning as the mastermind behind various murders.

Before long, even the mad, cruel killers lurking in the shadows begin watching him.

They are obsessed with Bai Fei's acting and try to drag him into their criminal mire, tainting him with their evil intentions.

Until one rainy night.

A notorious wanted criminal bursts into his bedroom, wild-eyed, and enthusiastically invites Bai Fei to join their criminal organization.

Bai Fei, already under close police scrutiny, wears a cool expression, takes off his glasses, and suddenly smiles.

"Sure."

Only now does the true test of his acting begin.

Reading Guide:

1. An award-winning actor bottom who loves slacking off but keeps showing off without meaning to, and is occasionally sickly × a daddy-type police ace top, suspicious and paranoid at first, then utterly devoted to his husband

2. A brainless wish-fulfillment story with simple mysteries. Readers looking for hard-core crime-solving should proceed with caution

3. Entirely fictional. No characters are based on real people

Theme: Good is rewarded, and evil is punished.
