[Powerful tycoon top × foolish, snobbish scumbag bottom] [Two male leads + romantic tension + wealthy urban life + angst before sweetness]
Every act of control is a form of reverse imprisonment. Every show of disdain conceals a secret longing.
According to the theory of Distinction, one's partner is the most important expression of personal taste. A typical elite, conditioned over the years to behave with “propriety,” may suppress a longing for what is “blunt and vulgar.” To a certain extent, a malicious and shallow man allowed Duan Xuanye to give vent to the dark side of his nature that he dared not express. By “loving him,” he indirectly indulged in the transgressive pleasure of it. At its core, this was a form of “narcissistic extension.” As a wealthy elite, he lived by the logic of “predictability.” From an elite perspective, shallowness and vanity were actually the safest traits in a partner. #KeptManToTrueLove #AngstBeforeSweetness #TopTierEliteTop
