After the Noble Academy's Beloved Returned Home

[Classic Mary Sue] [Everyone's Favorite] [Love-Rival Showdown] [Obsessive Voyeurism]

In the sixth year after He Baiyue transmigrated into a book, a System suddenly appeared and forcibly sent her back to her home country to follow the plot.

She exploited loopholes in the System to halfheartedly go through the motions, while secretly making plans to leave the country.

Everyone knew she wanted to go abroad again, but everyone believed she wouldn't be able to leave.

That is, until a sudden fire broke out at the academy. He Baiyue took part in the rescue, but never came back.

While everyone was consumed by grief and rage over her death, no one knew that He Baiyue had already changed her name and boarded a ship bound for another country.

Her plan had gone perfectly. Even the System had no idea.

And He Baiyue didn't know that her death had driven many people mad.

Including the System.

System: "You're the male leads of this world, blessed with its fortune."

System: "You have to... bring her back!"

System: "Take her by force, lock her up, keep her in a dark room, chain her to the bed... Anyone can do it, any method will do."

System: "As long as she stays alive."

The System had a secret, one even He Baiyue didn't know.

It was a good-deeds-bring-good-fortune System.

Its only mission was to keep its Host alive.

But good people never live long.

Even after it sealed its Host's memories of her previous life and started over three times,

its Host still died.

On the fourth restart,

it found the male-lead group who had secretly coveted its Host for ages and told them

Your chance to seize the moonlight... has arrived.

Later, a scene like this became a common sight at the aristocratic academy.

He Baiyue, the art department's newest teacher, often bore unmistakable traces of intimacy. A crowd of bodyguards and servants followed her wherever she went, and no one was allowed within three feet of her...

Coming soon: The Male Lead of the CEO Novel Set in the Eighties Goes Mad. Add it to your favorites if you like. Here's the blurb:

A major scandal has recently shaken the four great families of the capital.

He Yuqi moved into the Meng household by cashing in on a past favor. She stole her younger sister's fiance, pretended to be the long-lost heiress of the Yan family, and tried to have it all: stringing along her fiance while seducing and scheming against the head of the Meng family, hoping to secure her position through a child.

Most importantly, after her misdeeds were exposed, He Yuqi vanished.

As everyone gossiped, no one knew that He Yuqi, who should have fled abroad to live it up, had actually been kidnapped.

"There's one thing you got right, Qiqi."

Outside a gigantic gold-wire cage encrusted with crystal and gemstones, the impeccably dressed man leisurely loosened his tie, staring at her as madness gathered in his eyes.

"I'm petty, I'm not very forgiving, and I'm possessive."

"But don't forget."

"You're the one who came after me first, Qiqi."

He Yuqi: "...?"

The man was the ultimate cold, aloof male lead from a CEO novel set in the eighties: devastatingly handsome and all-powerful. With his gold-rimmed glasses on, he was the very picture of abstinence and heartlessness.

But wasn't he supposed to shut his heart away and live alone until the end? She'd cried and begged him before, but he'd never once softened. And besides

"Didn't you want to secure your place through a child?"

He removed his gold-rimmed glasses with his cool, pale fingers, then stepped into the golden cage like a predator stalking its prey, slowly baring his sharp fangs.

"I'll give you that now."

"All of it."

That day, muffled sobs could be heard from time to time inside the crystal cage.

Only when He Yuqi was exhausted in body and mind did she realize that this old geezer of a male lead had been eyeing her for a long time.

He had simply been patient and restrained, skilled at slowly wearing down her resistance.

But when he realized she wanted to run, all that restraint and patience instantly came back to haunt him, turning him into a cold, calculating madman on the hunt.

And by then, it was too late for her to escape.
