#After three years, my secretly loved, homophobic straight friend has finally come around!#

[A sunny, kindhearted deaf tattoo artist, handsome top x a pretty, grateful, homophobic straight singer who needs saving]

Synopsis:

When Qiao Sang jumped from that bridge, Fang Shan, who happened to be passing by, desperately grabbed his hand. After pulling him to safety, Fang Shan urged him not to do anything foolish again.

Fang Shan took him home, made him hot ginger tea, and gave him a soft blanket and a sofa.

Qiao Sang thought he was such a good person. Being with him felt so comfortable.

He liked being with Fang Shan, and eventually they became good friends.

Friendship isn't exclusive. In the third year of knowing Fang Shan, Qiao Sang seemed to have fallen in love.

Qiao Sang hated gay people more than anything. He had once thought that any intimate behavior between men would disgust him, but when that refined-looking boy nestled in Fang Shan's arms, the sight didn't make him want to throw up.

He had only one thought: he wanted to pull that person out of Fang Shan's arms!

And then...?

Qiao Sang suddenly understood. If he wanted Fang Shan for himself, this was how he should repay him: cling to him, possess him, and give himself to him. That was only right!

That man had everything he had, too. He was pretty, and he could treat Fang Shan well.

Fang Shan knew just how deep Qiao Sang's psychological scars ran, so he kept his love buried and never dared to bring it up. He could be Qiao Sang's older brother, friend, and best buddy, but never his lover.

He thought he could wait, even if that wait seemed to have no end.

Fang Shan didn't know how long he could keep waiting, but whenever the person who depended on him came close and said he was tired, Fang Shan would still choose to hold him and gently stay by his side.

He had felt unwilling to give up, but when he saw the disgust in Qiao Sang's eyes after hearing his tentative words, Fang Shan let it go.

Forget it. Things weren't so bad this way.

But one day, when Fang Shan came home, Qiao Sang was squatting outside his door, with cigarette butts scattered at his feet.

He looked up. At last, as Fang Shan had prayed every night, Qiao Sang's beautiful eyes held only him.

"Fang Shan, don't choose him. Choose me, okay?"

Fang Shan thought that tonight, the gods really had shown him favor.

Three years ago, Fang Shan held Qiao Sang's hand and gave him a new life.

Three years later, Qiao Sang took Fang Shan's hand and shared his happiness with him.

[Bonus scene]

After they started dating, Teacher Qiao was always busy keeping both men and women away from Teacher Fang.

After dinner and a shower, Teacher Qiao put on Teacher Fang's white shirt, crawled into bed, straddled him, and reached up to undo the buttons.

Fang Shan was just about to speak when Qiao Sang covered his ears with his hands, leaned down, and whispered beside his left ear, "That new intern who started today brought you lunch and touched your hand, too."

Fang Shan hadn't heard everything clearly. He turned his head to look at him, asking with his eyes.

Qiao Sang lowered his head and kissed him slowly for a while before pulling away. Then, close to Fang Shan's ear, he said each word slowly: "I'm jealous."

Fang Shan's Adam's apple bobbed as he wrapped an arm around Qiao Sang's waist and spoke hoarsely. "I heard you."

Qiao Sang's eyes curved into a smile. He kissed Fang Shan's earlobe and murmured, "Then you'll have to make it up to me tonight."

Fang Shan didn't reply. He just kissed him and pressed him into the covers.

They fooled around for a long time that night.
