Qi Ze was a straight man with an extreme fear of homosexuality. When he learned that a rich playboy in the capital had spread a rumor that he was gay, he found it “as disgusting as swallowing a cockroach” and went straight to beat the playboy up.
Later...
Ling Yu finally couldn't take it anymore.
“Weren't you a hopeless straight man? How come you know so many tricks?!”
“Don't... ah... stop...”
“Ling Yu, hug me.”
