[A scheming, possessive, affectionate top × a cool, softhearted, jealous bottom]
Top (Fu Zhixing): He grew up without his family's care. He has a privileged life, but is starved for affection.
Bottom (Chen Xing): He comes from a warm family, but isn't good at expressing himself. He seems cold on the outside, but is incredibly softhearted.
Fu Zhixing is the one who takes the initiative in their relationship from the start, deliberately pursuing Chen Xing. Only later does Chen Xing gradually realize that Fu Zhixing doesn't see him as just an ordinary friend, and has other feelings for him.

Chen Xing points at the video, not daring to look at the screen again. “You, ”
Fu Zhixing: “I really do want to be ‘friends’ with you.”
Chen Xing: “…” Do you think I believe that?
