[Two male leads + childhood friends + turning a straight man gay + mutual firsts + secret crush + reunion after years apart + romantic tension + older love interest + bittersweet romance]
[Arrogant, hard-to-placate, universally adored straight artist receiving × AI tycoon top who goes mad with love and has a possessive streak, like a loyal puppy]
[Lu Yanning regrets two things more than anything: first, becoming Jiang Ye's sworn rival; second, never becoming his lover.]
All his life, he's learned just one thing: how to coax Jiang Ye.
Even after four years of estrangement, even though he is now a Silicon Valley mogul in control of an AI empire while Jiang Ye has fallen from grace and lost everything. An accident resets his memories to before he fell in love with Jiang Ye.
The world waits for him to take revenge on his sworn rival, but instead he clutches Jiang Ye's fingertips and begs in a low voice: “You said... a good puppy stays obedient and waits by the door.”
Jiang Ye's eyes redden as he jabs a finger hard against Lu Yanning's chest. “Lu Yanning, when you get your memories back, you'll wish you could strangle the version of yourself that's clinging to me now!”
But Lu Yanning leans into the push, his fingertip brushing the corner of Jiang Ye's eye.
“Xiao Ye...”
“Why are you so hard to win over now?”
