[Two Male Leads] + [Mind Reading] + [Childhood Friends] + [Brothers on the Outside, Secret Stalker on the Inside] + [Hilarious, Sweet Romance] + [One-on-One, Both Pure]
Jiang Le has always thought that Xie Sui is the closest friend he'll ever have.
Sure, young master Xie is a germaphobe, sharp-tongued, and has a terrible personality. But he's been helping Jiang Le fight, helping him study, and scaring off his admirers since they were kids. He's the perfect example of a "best childhood friend in China."
Jiang Le has always believed this, even patting Xie Sui on the shoulder and saying, "Let's be brothers for life!"
Then a concussion awakens Jiang Le's ability to read minds, shattering his worldview.
Scene One: Dorm Room Inspection
Jiang Le is playing video games with his arm around his roommate.
Xie Sui (expressionless, eyes icy): "Get your hand off him. That's disgusting. Jiang Le, go back to your own bed."
Jiang Le (thinking): Aw, his germophobia is acting up again. I'm used to it.
Xie Sui (screaming internally): "Where does that filthy hand think it's going?! Cut it off! It has to go! Jiang Le is mine! If anyone dares touch him, I'll turn them into a specimen! I want to carry Jiang Le away right now and lock him in my bed, so he can only smile at me!"
Jiang Le: ??? (His hand shakes, and he loses the game.)
Scene Two: Taking Care of Him While He's Sick
Jiang Le has a fever, and Xie Sui brings him medicine.
Xie Sui (handing him water): "Drink it. Don't die in front of me. It's bad luck."
Jiang Le (thinking): A softie under all that bluster. Thanks, bro.
Xie Sui (heart fluttering): "His lips are so dry. I want to lick them. This medicine is so bitter. Should I feed it to him mouth to mouth? No, it's not time yet... Once I've tricked him into being mine, I'll lock him up and make sure I'm the only one who gets to kiss him every day."
