Neighbor, Your Secret Identity Is Showing

“Gentle, mature, fatherly top × adorable, sweetly clueless bottom”

“Mature top + both pure-hearted + sweet romance + modern urban setting + cute, clueless bottom + dark-hearted top + possessive on both sides + powerful family”

Rong Er’s life at A University, one of the country’s top schools, had been quiet and uneventful. Then one day, he unexpectedly reunites with the gentle older boy who lived next door when he was a child: the one who left without a word and made him secretly swear he never wanted to see him again.

But the older boy before him is no longer the way he remembers. Beneath that still-handsome face, which inexplicably annoys Rong Er, lies an unfathomable depth. What unsettles Rong Er even more is the possessiveness in the other man’s gaze, as if he’s already claimed him. It’s like a gentle net, quietly drawing tighter around him.

The tenderness of childhood has given way to mature, dark-hearted advances that leave him nowhere to turn. Rong Er resists this sudden closeness, yet can’t help sinking into the other man’s uniquely indulgent affection. As their mutual possessiveness quietly grows, how will these childhood friends, reunited at last, continue their story amid the bustle of the city?

(Both are pure-hearted, and their parents are open-minded. Little Er, your world may be quiet, but I want to give you a love so powerful you can feel it even with your ears covered.)
