The Thug Reform Plan

[Cool and gentle VS Gloomy, unhinged]

Redemption | Taming a dog | A self-loathing male lead with a painful, secret crush

1.

A horrific tragedy occurred in 2024:

S City's water supply was severely contaminated. A new substance was suspected of having entered the water, leaving a million people with paralyzed nerves and impaired limbs.

There was only one suspect: Qi Che.

A biochemical genius with countless patents, he had driven progress in chemical technology. He was both a benefactor and a blight upon humanity.

A crippled madman, taking revenge on society and dragging others down into the hell he lived in.

News reports about Qi Che were always text and voice recordings altered to disguise his voice. He never showed his real face.

As a result, Sang Yubei's memories of Qi Che remained fixed ten years in the past.

A thin, pale boy curled up in a battered wheelchair, hiding behind a curtain. He would lift it just a finger's width and sneak a glance at her.

2.

Sang Yubei was an operative at the Time Administration and a perennial recipient of the Outstanding Employee award.

A new assignment landed in her hands:

Target: Qi Che

Time to revisit: Ten years ago

Objective: Guide Qi Che back to the right path and get him to serve his country. If the situation becomes critical and the target proves incorrigible, the operative may eliminate him at her discretion to prevent a future disaster.

Sang Yubei returned to ten years earlier.

She was fifteen, in the summer after eighth grade, the cherished daughter of the Sang family, surrounded by adoring admirers.

Qi Che was a wild dog with its fangs broken. Anyone could kick him around, and he was covered in spikes, his eyes holding the cold stillness of a world gone silent.

She and Qi Che had once been two parallel lines, one high and one low.

3.

[He isn't as bad as the news reports make him out to be.

I won't give up on reforming him. I hope he won't give up on himself either.

I hope he learns how to love others, and how to love himself.]

Sang Yubei wrote in her work journal.

Those who have suffered for too long find even the smallest kindness sweet.

In the damp rainy season, Qi Che's eyelashes were heavy with mist. He never once lifted them in front of Sang Yubei.

Few people had ever heard him speak. When he finally did, his voice was hoarse and halting. "No one has ever loved me."

"Can you teach me how to love?"

Consumed by longing, Qi Che carved these words into the wall every day: [A wild dog shouldn't covet the moon.]

[You're the moon reflected in the water. How could I dare touch you?]

TIPS:

1. Both leads are virgins.

2. The male lead is a violent criminal, strong, beautiful, and tragic. He does bad things, so readers with high moral standards for male leads should avoid this story. In truth, he mostly resists or protects himself. The characters can be bad, but they must never be pathetic.

3. The male lead has a spinal cord injury. He won't recover, but with the help of technology, he can walk.

4. Please add it to your library, leave a comment, and send a gift~
