[My writing is admittedly lacking. Thank you all for being patient, and thank you for enjoying the story.]
A sweet, devoted 1v1 romance that will spoil you rotten
[A boy with a clear agenda, and straight-laced Chen who takes a while to warm up]
Tsundere Zhong Linian, who puts in the work to be the bottom when flirting with his sweetheart, vs. Xichen, an innocent, milky-sweet (not really) straight top who keeps getting flirted with until he’s in way too deep
Silly version:
Reader A: They’re officially a couple, I swallowed the key and jumped into the sea. If you disagree, come and get me!
Xichen: No, we’re not. Brother Nian is just a senior. We’re not together.
Zhong Linian: This reader has such a sweet mouth. It’s like they’ve coated it in honey.
Reader B: What kind of heavenly romance is this?! If you’re not in love, I’ll livestream myself swallowing a whole skyscraper!
Xichen: Bro, clear this up quickly! Someone’s going to die!
Zhong Linian: Tsk, I hardly deserve to be called heavenly.
Reader C: Stop right there! Zhong Linian, this road leads to Xichen’s brand of silliness! Don’t go down the wrong path!
Zhong Linian: Off I go, off I go, chasing my sweetheart~
After they’re caught dating, everyone warns Zhong Linian: Xichen is delicate and breaks at a touch. That milky-sweet boy cries easily, and he’s hard to comfort.
Xichen: (fuming) I’m a manly top! I’ve got abs, leg hair, and plenty of strength! Zhong Linian’s the one who cries!
Literary version:
Reporter: “How did your love story begin?”
Zhong Linian: “Xichen fell in love with me at first sight and wouldn’t leave me alone.”
Xichen: (slowly types a question mark)
You know perfectly well who fell in love at first sight, don’t you?
