Shocking! Whose Little Slave Is Spoiled Rotten?

(The main story is complete)

[Two male leads + 1v1 + equally matched leads + older man/younger man + mutual redemption + pretending together]

[High-ranking chancellor gong, gentle and refined on the surface but indifferent underneath, tender only to the one he loves x seemingly docile, actually formidable in battle, cool and aloof beauty with a tragic past]

Everyone says the chancellor is a refined, elegant gentleman, kind to all.

But that isn't true. Qi Xu discovers that the man is a master of disguise, the very picture of a smiling face and a scheming heart. Luckily, he's not as weak as he seems either. Pretending? That's his specialty.

Clutching his secret identity as He Cuo, Qi Xu keeps up with the other man's act, matching him move for move. You're gentle, I'll be frail. Give and take.

Gradually, he notices that the other man is treating him better and better, and it doesn't seem like an act at all. This was exactly what Qi Xu wanted, so why does it leave him feeling restless?

Until one day, Song Xunzhou calls him by his real name: “Qi Xu.”

Only then does Qi Xu realize that his secret identity has long been exposed, yet the other man has never let on.

Song Xunzhou first sees He Cuo on a rainy night. The boy's reckless, devil-may-care ferocity catches his attention. The second time is at Liuchun House, where the boy is pitifully close to death.

On impulse, he takes him home.

The boy is docile and gentle, though he has plenty of tricks up his sleeve. Before long, he climbs into Song Xunzhou's bed, draped in gauzy robes, eyes shimmering seductively, like a bewitching ghost.

He knows the boy is no ordinary person, but he falls for him anyway, laying down his arms completely.

-

Two actors with top-tier skills: you pretend, I'll pretend too. Let's see who cracks first.

In the end, the old tree blossoms, and there's no stopping what follows.

-

What do you do when you can't beat the one you love?

No problem.

Song Xunzhou says: I can drug him, and I can call in backup.

Qi Xu: Shameless.
