After Faking My Death, My Playboy Childhood Sweetheart Went Yandere

Xie Xuanyi’s first fast-travel system mission was to transmigrate and become the childhood sweetheart of his target, Shen Shixin. His mission was very simple: protect the other party so he could survive a palace coup. Based on Xie Xuanyi’s high physical stats, the system advised him to provide close-body protection. Therefore, ever since crossing over, Xie Xuanyi had stuck to Shen Shixin’s side like a tail. As the legitimate son of the Prime Minister, Shen Shixin possessed a natural talent for being a playboy even at a young age. He would take Xie Xuanyi to browse the best jewelry shops in the capital, climb to the highest peak of the Wild Goose Pagoda to gaze at a sky full of stars, and secretly drink clear, refreshing peach blossom wine… He also effortlessly used hazy, murmured words to trick Xie Xuanyi out of his sincere heart. When Shen Shixin wanted pastries, Xie Xuanyi spent several all-nighters learning how to make them, causing his maximum physical stat limit to drop to a critical condition. When Shen Shixin celebrated his birthday, Xie Xuanyi carved a jade pendant by hand, his hands covered in scars, only to be blocked outside the Prime Minister manor’s gates by the servants. Inside the gates, Shen Shixin’s words merged seamlessly with the servant’s relay: “Is he even worthy of celebrating my birthday?” “What liking, what caring it was all just to trick him into working his life away for me. Look, isn’t he the only one who actually believed it?” Xie Xuanyi felt his heart ache as if pierced by knives, his inner passion fading inch by inch. Yet, just then, fires broke out inside the walls. Amidst the crisis, he rushed into the manor to block a fatal arrow for Shen Shixin. However, he had forgotten that he no longer possessed his former top-tier physical stats. Dying right in front of Shen Shixin, using his life as the price this was the most bedraggled mission he had ever completed. In every mission thereafter, Xie Xuanyi intentionally avoided cultivating romantic feelings with NPCs, as if having found the trick to it, and he briefly became the employee with the highest completion rate. Until one day, when he was forced by the system to execute a repair job and laid eyes on Shen Shixin once more. The former playboy youth was now dressed in profound black robes, cold as frost, the longsword in his hand stained with un dried blood. Only the dim, dangerous light in his eyes was veiled by a grayish, decadent undertone. He had already become a hot-property, heavily influential powerful minister of the current court, reaching the heavens with his iron grip. Only when Xie Xuanyi fled in panic did he catch a glimpse of the powerful minister’s cold light dropping to the ground, tears wetting the collar of his robes. How could he possibly not love him? How could he possibly not care? Shen Shixin locked him within the manor, the edge of his sword resting against his slender shoulders, forcing him to admit his identity. Xie Xuanyi leaned his body slightly forward, drawing closer to the razor-sharp sword, revealing a smile that was both pitiful and sweet a look Shen Shixin had never seen before. “The dead cannot return to life, Lord Shen. Please accept my condolences.” — Description from novelcodex.orgFull novel: After Faking My Death, My Playboy Childhood Sweetheart Went Yandere — read the rest free on N​o⁠v​e⁠l​C⁠o​d⁠e​x⁠.​o⁠r​g⁠
