Surprise! My Gentle Childhood Friend Is Actually a Devoted Puppy!!!

【Dual Male Leads / Transmigrate into a Book / School Life / Sweet Romance / Childhood Friends】 Sunny, sweet-natured bottom × devoted top with a hidden dark side A gentle, slow-burn bedtime treat, with a faithful couple and a happy ending. After transmigrating into a book, Tang Ci learns he has become the childhood-friend side character in a novel called The Childhood Friend Can't Beat the Newcomer. To break up the main couple, he resorts to all kinds of cruel schemes. Once exposed, he is personally sent to prison by the male lead and dies there in despair. With that in mind, Tang Ci decides to treasure his life and stay away from the main characters. But the next second, the male lead, Shen Mian, still just a little kid, gazes at him with big, pleading eyes, begging for attention. Tang Ci's resolve melts in an instant, crumbling under the force of that cuteness. In the novel, the male lead was as straight as they come before meeting the other lead. Tang Ci is straight too, so surely there’s nothing wrong with being friends! Having made up his mind, Tang Ci pats Shen Mian's fluffy little head, feeling quite pleased with himself. Time flies, and their friendship grows deeper with every passing year. Tang Ci never notices that the gaze of the “best friend” he talks about is growing more and more intense, as if Shen Mian might devour him whole at any moment. In short: a love that spans time.
