Two actors + angsty top + sickly top + ten-year age gap
Gentle and easygoing on the surface, but secretly dark top × sharp-tongued, secretly soft-hearted bottom
Fu Zhitong × Song Zhisheng
Top's perspective
“Cough, cough, cough...” Bright red blood stained the sink. Fu Luotong clutched his stomach with one hand. At his most wretched, he looked up and saw someone unexpected in the mirror.
The words “Serves you right” slipped from the other person's lips. His heart seized with pain. Yes, he had brought it all on himself. One piece of candy Song Zhisheng had casually offered him years ago had kept him tangled up with the other man for a whole decade.
They had kissed and held each other, but none of it had been for love. It was all false affection put on for the cameras. Fu Zhitong had been such a lovable fool.
This outcome was nothing more than a trap of his own making...
Bottom's perspective
Song Zhisheng spotted the candy wrapper tucked inside Fu Zhitong's diary. It was from Baihe, a brand that had long since been discontinued. The diary had three hundred pages. Every one of the first 299 pages spoke of his love.
The final page held only two simple words: I'm sorry.
Tears blurred the writing, but made the love behind it unmistakably clear.
Fu Zhitong really was a complete fool. He had stomach problems, yet still shielded Song Zhisheng from glass after glass of hard liquor. Song Zhisheng had treated him so badly, and still Fu Zhitong had fallen for him for ten whole years, all because of one piece of candy.
