Gentle, scheming older top (Gu) × cool, resolute, taciturn bottom (Shen)
Shen Zhaoran spent eighteen years wandering before his biological parents finally found him. But after returning to the Shen family, he discovered that
His parents each did their own thing. Neither had made a serious effort to find him in eighteen years, and they had even adopted another child.
But
His older brother did everything he could to make it up to him. “You must have had a hard time all these years.” He took on the roles of both father and mother, shielding Shen Zhaoran from harm.
The fake young master said with red-rimmed eyes, “I was just afraid you'd make me leave.” He had never truly wanted to hurt Shen Zhaoran, and even went out of his way to protect him.
And then there was the man who held power in the Gu family, who couldn't stop staring at him from the moment they met.
Shen Zhaoran, who'd planned to leave immediately: ? This isn't going the way I expected.
Later, Gu Yanzhi cornered him against a wall. “My whole family likes you. What about you?”
Shen Zhaoran looked at him, then suddenly smiled.
“Gu Yanzhi, do you know how hard it is to win someone like me over?”
Young Master Gu raised an eyebrow. “I do.”
“Then why are you still trying?”
“Because, ” He leaned down and whispered in Shen Zhaoran's ear, “You deserve the best.”
