Also known as A Gentleman Loves a Scoundrel
Good news! After two years of exams, I finally got into the graduate program at my dream university!
Bad news! There are four people in my dorm, and I’m the only straight guy!
Xu Tuzhi comes from a scholarly family and is as straight as they come.
As for his looks, “beauty” is probably the right word. As for his brains, he’s a little slow when it comes to studying. But he’s good at calligraphy and plays the erhu well. Influenced by his grandfather, he also enjoys listening to Peking opera.
After finally getting into a master’s program in International Chinese Language Education, he turns out to be the only man in the program. There’s nothing for it but to share a dorm with graduate students from other departments in the same school.
One roommate is studying for a master’s in Japanese, another is studying for a master’s in English, and the last one... is said to be a genius doctoral student from their school, fluent in six languages, a rich second-generation heir, and incredibly handsome. Of course, someone like that would never live in a student dorm. And yet...
This brilliant doctoral student senior actually moves in!
From then on, every morning when Xu Tuzhi opens his eyes, the first thing he sees is that breathtakingly beautiful face.
He discovers that this senior is not only handsome and brilliant, but also incredibly good-natured. He pays special attention to Xu Tuzhi, always looking out for him.
Xu Tuzhi admires him more than words can say!
But gradually, some things, or rather, some feelings, seem to change...
A little scene:
“Um... I-I’m straight...” (I hope you don’t get the wrong idea.)
“I know.”
“Last night, I might’ve, might’ve had too much to drink...” (So I kissed you.)
“I understand.”
“So, from now on...” (Can we keep being good roommates?)
“I get it.”
Later...
No, I don’t think you get it!

(PS: Inspired by a friend.)
(Note: Foreign language schools tend to have far more women than men. It’s perfectly normal for some majors to have only one male student, or none at all. International Chinese Language Education trains people to teach Chinese to foreigners.)
