Darkness Under the Lamp

Character setup (on the surface): A timid, weak, pretty boy x a gloomy, selfish, dark-hearted man

Yan Changli x Yin Zeyu A gloomy, ghostly male lead

Yan Changli has recently become the target of a pervert.

It starts with mysterious harassment texts from unfamiliar numbers.

[Li Li, you're so pretty.]

[Li Li, why are you wearing shorts to class today, showing off your legs? Who are you trying to show them to? Do you know everyone's sneaking looks at you?]

[Why are you letting someone put an arm around your shoulders? So dirty, so dirty, so dirty, so dirty, so dirty, so dirty, so dirty.]

[Li Li, are you mad? Sorry, hubby shouldn't have called you dirty. Baby, hubby was wrong.]

[Li Li, why are you ignoring me? Do you want to meet hubby? Should hubby come find you?]

[*******]

He blocks countless numbers, but the next time, the sender just switches to a new one and keeps harassing Yan Changli.

He thinks it will stop after a while, but instead the harassment gets even worse.

Drinks left unfinished in the library. Underwear stolen from the school bathhouse. Worst of all, one night he falls asleep in his dorm and wakes to find the lower half of his body bare beneath the covers.

One night, Yan Changli is returning from the study room. With the dorm curfew approaching, he takes a path without streetlights. Halfway along, he hears soft footsteps behind him, following at a steady distance.

Panicking, Yan Changli runs forward and crashes straight into someone's arms.

"Li Li? What's wrong?"

"Senior?"

"I think someone's following me." Yan Changli clutches Yin Zeyu's sleeve. "Please help me, Senior."

The senior's narrow eyes curve into a smile as he holds Yan Changli half in his arms.

"Don't be afraid."

Reader Advisory: One-on-one romance, both leads are physically and emotionally devoted only to each other.
