Delicate and sickly young lady top x possessive, obsessive bottom
Lin Lang transmigrates into a girls' love novel as the unrequited love of Xie Yan, an obsessive high school girl.
In the book, Xie Yan builds a locked room and imprisons the original Lin Lang, brutally tormenting her until she wishes she were dead.
Lin Lang: This is supposed to be her unrequited love? Sounds more like her enemy.
She is the precious young lady of the Lin family, born into wealth and luxury, as beautiful as a goddess, delicate and frail enough to inspire pity. They call her the "Sickly Beauty," and she is also a famous top student at Lingyue High School in Tang City. How is it reasonable for her to suffer such abuse?
It isn't, but Lin Lang is genuinely afraid Xie Yan might snap, so she keeps her distance and tries to avoid running into her.
At school, Lin Lang hears Xie Yan won't be coming in that day, so she confidently heads to an empty music room to practice. Instead, she runs straight into Xie Yan's arms.
On the weekend, Lin Lang goes to a cafe and bumps into Xie Yan. Somehow, they end up having afternoon tea together.
Even while shopping at the mall, Lin Lang manages to run into Xie Yan.
Even Lin Lang's good temper has its limits. She snaps, "Could you stop following me?"
Xie Yan steps closer and asks politely, "Miss Lin, could it be that you're paying too much attention to me, so you see me everywhere you go?"

Xie Yan is an unwanted daughter of the Xie family. She's beautiful, rebellious, and solitary, often skipping class and getting into fights, with abysmal grades.
Though she speaks politely, no one at Lingyue High dares to mess with her.
When the second-year classes are reshuffled, Xie Yan and Lin Lang end up in the same class, seated in front of and behind each other.
The "Sickly Beauty" furrows her lovely brows, says nothing, and moves away, taking the seat diagonally farthest from Xie Yan.
Xie Yan looks furious.
The students in Class Six worry for their top student, afraid the frail "Sickly Beauty" will be bullied, but they don't dare step in to help.
Lin Lang, however, lifts her chin and dares her with a flushed face: "I only like sitting with people who are beautiful and kind."
Everyone expects Xie Yan to blow up, but they don't know that in the dead of night, she willingly carries Lin Lang when she has an episode, brings her water and medicine, and looks after her all night.
Even knowing Lin Lang is only pretending to be sick part of the time, Xie Yan is perfectly happy to play along.
After waking, Lin Lang presents Xie Yan with a token of thanks, then leaves gracefully, unwilling to spend another second with her.
Rejected, Xie Yan's gaze turns obsessive as she grabs the aloof, pampered young lady and says darkly, "Lin Lang, you aren't going to leave me, are you?"
