Why Are Two Guys Talking About Pledging Their Lives to Each Other?

Sunny and upright & dark-hearted and cold

Nie Pingyu and Rong Zheng were taken by adults to a banquet when they were fifteen or sixteen. They hit it off at first sight and felt as if they had known each other forever, but the very next moment, a misunderstanding led to a huge fight. They did not see each other again for two years.

Nie Pingyu did everything he could to meet him again. After they cleared up the misunderstanding, a year of spending time together convinced Rong Zheng that he had found the best brother he could ever ask for.

But on the night after the deadline for submitting their college applications, Nie Pingyu confessed his love to him.

And as it happened, they had both applied to the same university!

Rong Zheng: When did you realize you liked… the same sex?

Nie Pingyu: I liked you first, and only then did I realize I liked someone of the same sex.
