After Transmigrating into a Novel with My Boyfriend, He Turned Out to Be a Native Villain-Chapter 4: What a Buff Stacking
When Yu Li returned to the dormitory, her roommates were already inside. At the sound of the door opening, a girl turned her head and looked over.
"Yu Li, you're back? Are you okay?"
The voice sounded a lot like the one who had called her for lunch earlier. A name immediately popped into Yu Li’s mind—Le Yi.
She responded with a soft "Mm" and smiled at Le Yi. "I feel much better after some sleep. The past few days have been exhausting."
The girl at the opposite desk made a knowing expression. "I knew it! Just look at all the work your department dumped on you. Why didn’t you delegate as a minister?"
"I agree with Xiao Jingqu," Le Yi chimed in. "You’re responsible for compiling the past two years’ data—how could you possibly finish that alone?"
Yu Li sat down and turned her head, her face showing an expression of agreement. "Now I think you guys are absolutely right."
The others were visibly surprised, as if shocked that Yu Li had suddenly come to her senses.
After all, she used to always say it was fine, that everyone else was busy too, and then she’d just take on all the work herself. They had tried persuading her multiple times to no avail.
As Yu Li spoke, her gaze subtly swept across the entire dorm. Two people were talking to her, while another was busy applying makeup and had no time to join the conversation.
It seemed… this dorm was relatively harmonious.
After quickly confirming her roommates’ identities, Yu Li propped her chin up and opened her laptop. Unfinished data files were still on the screen.
Flipping through them carefully, she realized that the previous Yu Li had already completed an entire year’s worth of data compilation.
So that's why she worked herself to exhaustion? No wonder she had woken up with such a terrible headache.
Yu Li curled her lips slightly and casually opened QQ. At the top of her chat list was a large group named [Student Council – News Department]. Below that, there was another group labeled [News Department Ministers].
After skimming through the messages, Yu Li finally understood what had happened.
It turned out that a teacher had requested online data from the past two years, and the task had been assigned to their department. Another minister was originally contacted for it, but they simply passed the responsibility to Yu Li, claiming they were "too busy."
The previous Yu Li had a soft and timid personality, too afraid to speak up. When she tried asking the department members for help, all she got in return was:
[Senior, I have class, I don’t have time.]
One person said it, and then everyone else started saying the same thing.
And in the group chat, the other minister remained silent from beginning to end.
Yu Li’s lips curled slightly, as if she had seen something amusing. However, there was no real laughter in her eyes—just a touch of indifference.
The system next to her huffed in outrage. "How can they be like this?!"
Yu Li shot it a calm glance. "Why are you so shocked? Isn’t this part of the character setting data you guys created?"
A coward facing a bunch of freeloaders—too scared to speak up, so she just let them walk all over her.
She spoke so quietly that her roommates didn’t hear.
The system instantly deflated like a punctured balloon, mumbling, "I didn't know about this…"
Ignoring its muttering, Yu Li picked up her phone and sent a message in the News Department’s group chat.
[@Everyone, if you have classes, send me your schedule along with your class name. 😊]
After sending the message, the group remained eerily silent, as if no one had noticed it.
Yu Li didn’t bother to check again. Instead, she opened a drama streaming site on her laptop and started watching a show.
"Sis, they’re ignoring you," the system fretted, watching her remain completely unfazed.
"It’s fine." Sooner or later, someone would panic.
Yu Li propped her chin up and picked a show, but after watching a few episodes, she lost interest.
She had thought that the entertainment industry in her previous world was doomed, but this world didn’t seem to be much better.
She switched to a freelance job app, intending to look for part-time work. Unfortunately, nothing seemed suitable. Taking a sip of water, she moistened her slightly dry lips.
Seeing her searching for jobs, the system suggested, "Sis, didn’t you already find Bo Jingmo? Why don’t you go to him? His family is loaded."

Yu Li raised an eyebrow. "Why are you so eager for me to find Bo Jingmo? You’re more anxious than a girlfriend."
Besides, all she knew about him were generic online facts—some provincial top scholar, a wealthy family’s young master.
And even if Bo Jingmo was rich, what did that have to do with her? Would he just hand her money?
The system went silent. From its previous observations, Yu Li and Bo Jingmo had an incredibly close relationship. But now, after losing her memory and being separated from him, Yu Li was acting remarkably indifferent—almost like she didn’t care.
It was strange.
Pondering this, the system eventually voiced its thoughts.
Yu Li narrowed her eyes. "You’ve observed us before?"
The system immediately clammed up and played dumb. "Uh—uhh! I—it was just because I detected danger! That way, I could conveniently collect your souls…"
The system had secrets. But Yu Li had no intention of prying—she wasn’t interested in them.
In truth, she was more curious about what Bo Jingmo had been hiding from her before the car accident.
Lowering her head, she glanced at her phone. The group chat was still devoid of replies.
Tapping her fingers on the desk, she thought for a moment before sending another message.
[Deadline: Tomorrow morning at 7 AM. If no one responds, I’ll assume everyone is free.]
With nothing better to do, she opened the Student Council’s group chat and looked at the owner’s name.
When she saw that familiar name, her previously idle gaze sharpened in an instant. After a long pause, she let out a quiet, meaningful laugh.
So that's where he was.
The dim light from the desk lamp cast a soft glow on the girl’s face, highlighting her delicate skin. She let out a faint smile, her charming fox-like eyes narrowing slightly, exuding a sense of casual indifference.
Lowering her gaze, her long lashes cast shadows over her eyes. Her fingertips hovered over that name for a second before she tapped on it lightly. She then turned to the system with a smirk.
"See? What’s the rush? Found him."
Displayed clearly under the group owner’s name:
[Student Council President – Bo Jingmo]
—
It wasn’t until nighttime that people finally started submitting their schedules in the group chat. They did have classes—but at most, only one or two sessions.
As for that ignored friend request? Predictably, it remained sitting in the pending list.
Yu Li glanced at it briefly before shutting off her phone. Closing her eyes, she prepared to sleep.
But just as she was about to drift off, the system suddenly shrieked.
"We’re doomed! No time to explain!"
Doomed?
Yu Li frowned. Just as she was about to open her eyes, a wave of dizziness suddenly hit her. The sensation was overwhelming, giving her no time to react.
When she opened her eyes again, she found herself standing in an unfamiliar kitchen, holding a kitchen knife in her hand. A pot beside her was bubbling with steam.
Yu Li: "…"
For a brief moment, she wondered if she had transmigrated again.
Setting down the knife, she looked around.
She was inside a villa. Through the front window, she could even see a garden and a surrounding wall.
The villa had a classic European-style interior—lace tablecloths, intricately carved chairs—each detail exuding an air of luxury. The golden sunlight streamed in, making the elegant home feel incredibly warm.
Yet beneath that surface of perfection, there was something eerily unnatural.
Yu Li set the knife down and turned her gaze to the bubbling pot beside her. After a moment of thought, she suddenly reached out and lifted the lid, lowering her eyes to check the contents inside.
—Everything looked like normal food.
She straightened up and calmly called out, "System."
As soon as she spoke, the glowing orb floated in through the window, sounding a little guilty. "Sister..."
Yu Li frowned. "Where is this? Did I transmigrate again?"
The system quickly responded, "No, no, this is still the same world—just a different setting. I only just found out myself!"
Its form shifted back into a strip-like shape and stretched out into a screen in front of Yu Li. "Look, Sister! It's because these new plotlines suddenly appeared."
Displayed on the screen was a series of rule explanations.
[Dear actors, welcome to the horror film set! Please perform your roles seriously and follow through with all the scenes. Our audience will be watching you at all times!]
[Be careful not to let the NPCs discover that you’re a player, or bad things might happen. A little secret—following the script might be the safest option! Sometimes, ghosts aren’t necessarily NPCs.]
[Once your performance is over, the audience will rate your acting. Your score will affect your ranking! Bad reviews won’t make you a good actor, so win the audience’s love to your heart’s content—by any means necessary~]
[After each performance, your ranking determines your points. The higher the points, the better the rewards! Actors at the bottom of the ranking will be considered as ‘not putting in enough effort.’ And if you don’t work hard, we’ll deduct your money! What? You’re broke? No worries—you can pay with your life! Come work for us~]
[Friendly reminder: If you die in here, we take no responsibility! Of course, you can use points for an instant revival—points are all-powerful! They’re just a bit pricey, hehe!]
[Now, please begin your role-playing in earnest!]
Yu Li: "…"
So, what now?
First, she lost her memory and transmigrated into a novel. And now, they were stacking on another infinite horror film set?
What a ridiculous buff stack.
No wonder that novel plot she had read earlier felt strange. Looks like it came from a review related to this.
Yu Li lowered her gaze, tracing her fingers over the text on the screen. She noticed that these words were darker than the previous novel script—almost like they had been freshly printed on top, even covering up the earlier text.
Unconsciously, she furrowed her brows. "Every time a new message appears, does it overwrite the original novel plot?"
The system suddenly sounded bashful. "No, no! The original didn’t have this much content—I stole this newbie guide from the protagonist’s system!"
It even waited expectantly for Yu Li to praise it. "How is it? Sister, aren’t I amazing? They have a film set system, but it doesn’t matter—you have me!"
Yu Li’s lips twitched. "…Very impressive."
She lowered her head and glanced at her outfit. "So, what’s my role? Am I a character too?"
The system chirped innocently, "Nope! Sister, you’re an NPC! You don’t have the film set system, so you can’t have a role! I secretly sent you in, hehehe."
"…"
Yu Li was silent for a few seconds before suddenly bending down and patting its head. She blinked, her voice carrying a mix of praise and expectation.
"Little Treasure, you’re amazing. Can you help Sister steal a bit more? Sister can only rely on you now."
Normally, she just called it "System." But whenever she needed something, Yu Li’s words became especially sweet.
Little Treasure, Darling—she could say them so naturally.
After years of coaxing Bo Jingmo, she had long lost any embarrassment over using affectionate nicknames. She could say them effortlessly, without a second thought.
The system, completely unaware that it was being used, swelled with pride at the praise. "Sister, just say the word! Their system isn’t as smart as me—I can steal anything!"
Yu Li’s smile deepened with satisfaction. "Really? Little Treasure, you’re amazing."
This system… so easy to fool.
