[Two male leads + esports + mutual pining + sweet romance + 1v1 + childhood friends + turning a straight man gay + devoted, restrained pursuer x bold, passionate pursued]
Shao Boxuan is the heir to a wealthy family and the world’s number-one jungler. He’s renowned in the esports scene as an untouchable heartthrob, with female fans making up half his following.
But he remains unmoved, secretly in love with his best friend.
The problem is, his friend is straight.
And he’s had a hugely popular on-screen pairing with someone else.
Sheng Ranxing comes from a family in the entertainment business. His father is a renowned director, his mother is a singing superstar, and he became a national sensation as a child actor.
As soon as he came of age, he reached number one among marksmen on the national server, and a top club came after him to play professionally.
The club owner is his childhood best friend.
Sheng Ranxing has a touch-starved streak and wants to cling to Shao Boxuan every second of the day. They both have each other’s location on their phones, and even when they don’t come home at night, they have to let each other know.
Their friends are stunned. “Is this normal for you two?”
Sheng Ranxing insists, “We’re best friends!”
On the night of the world championship finals, Sheng Ranxing suddenly discovers that Shao Boxuan is planning to leave him.
His world comes crashing down.
But no matter what he tries, he can’t make Shao Boxuan stay.
At a party, a friend gives him an idea. Sheng Ranxing never imagined he could do that, but he puts it into action at once.

Shao Boxuan kicks open the door and finds the two of them embracing.
Sheng Ranxing gazes at him hazily. “Big brother~”
Shao Boxuan pins him to the bed, his eyes dark. “You asked for this.”
The night passes.
Sheng Ranxing finally understands.
So it turns out you can date your best friend.
