Guiding You Through the Height of Summer

[Two male leads + campus + healing + rekindled love + happy ending]

[Sensitive, short-tempered, prickly bottom × gentle, secretly seductive, scheming top]

They parted ways five years ago. Five years later, Gu Qi runs straight into Qin Mu.

Qin Mu freezes, forgetting even to pick up the exam papers he dropped. “Gu Qi?”

Gu Qi feels awkward all over and frowns. Five years apart have made them strangers.

“You… don't remember me?”

“No.”

Later, during their graduation break, the two boys curl up together on the sofa.

“Gu Qi, will you kiss me?” Qin Mu coaxes him, watching as Gu Qi lies in his arms, his ears red enough to drip blood.

“Mm…”

Who could have known that goodbyes always come in the height of summer

“Qin Mu! Answer your phone!!”

“You don't want me anymore. At least tell me. I won't keep pestering you…”

Gu Qi kneels alone on the airport floor, his face streaked with tears, and cries out.

Qin Mu, I hate you

Seven years pass in the blink of an eye. After graduating with his master's degree, Gu Qi joins his advisor on a domestic collaborative project. He glances casually at the contract and sees the name of the partner: Qin Mu.

“Are you leaving again this time?”

“I am, but I want you to come with me.” Gu Qi grabs Qin Mu by the collar and kisses the corner of his mouth.

This time, neither of them lets go.

Back then, I wanted you to come back here. I was waiting for you.

From now on, I'll cross mountains and seas with you. Wait for me.

(Qin Mu's inner monologue: I save all my little schemes for Gu, the kid.)
