Sharing a rental with him satisfies a greed he cannot confess. Sometimes, he thinks it would be nice if they could just keep living together like this. After all, he has always been good at fooling himself. But indulged desire spreads out of control, like a wildfire. When he sees Shen Mu on a date with a girl who seems perfect for him, Xiao Xin cannot help himself after Shen Mu gets drunk. He cries as he makes a move on him, then bitterly regrets the wet streaks he left all over his own face. In the end, he has made the person he loves dirty. Shen Mu wakes up without remembering a thing and is still just as good to Xiao Xin. But that kindness only makes Xiao Xin feel more keenly how despicable he is. He asks Shen Mu if he can move out and begins the painful process of breaking his addiction. Drunk again, Xiao Xin leans against the cold wall and looks at his own wretched reflection in the mirror, a self-mocking smile tugging at his lips. Feel awful? You deserve it! A toad dreaming of eating swan meat? Know your place. * When Shen Mu returns from a business trip, he cannot stand coming home to an empty apartment without Xiao Xin. Sure, Xiao Xin is moving out, but did he really have to rush off like that? Could he really be that unbearable? Watching yet another home-cooked dinner go cold, Shen Mu finally loses patience. He speeds to a gay bar to drag Xiao Xin home. With a handsome, frosty expression, he pulls away the twink dancing beside the thoroughly drunk man, carries Xiao Xin home, and tucks him into bed before he can relax. After that, it happens every day. At last, Xiao Xin cannot take it anymore. He slams his chopsticks down on the table and points at Shen Mu. “What the hell do you want from me?” Shen Mu leans back in his chair, cigarette between his lips. After a long look, he says, “Xiao Xin, I want us to have a home.” At a time like this, does he still have to make Xiao Xin play that damn happy-family game with him? You want this, you want that, it’s all about what you want. What about him? Xiao Xin grabs him by the collar and asks in bitter resignation, “I want to rip your clothes off every second of the day, climb on top of you, and fuck you. Is that the kind of family you want?” The punch he expects never comes. Instead, Shen Mu gives him a feather-light kiss by the ear. “Yeah.” “I want that.” * Shen Mu wants Xiao Xin and himself to make a home together. Xiao Xin wants Shen Mu to think of him whenever he thinks of Shen Mu. * 【Bonus Scene】 One night, Lawyer Shen and Boss Xiao disagree over who gets to take which position. Pushing the man off him, Boss Xiao gasps, “Wait… I demand a review of that spreadsheet.” Lawyer Shen is busy battling the buttons on his husband’s shirt and gives a distracted reply. “Mm… what spreadsheet?” Xiao Xin is stunned. “Don’t you have a spreadsheet where you record how many times we do it?” Shen Mu looks innocent. “I made that up.” He grins and kisses him again. “But I remember very clearly. It’s my turn this time.” Also known as: “Be Careful When Sharing a Rental, or You Might End Up as Your Roommate’s Husband or Wife” and “The Black Box Preserving a Story of a Secret Crush Finally Coming True” Upcoming dual-top novel in the same genre 1: “When My Straight Crush Went Bankrupt” #After sleeping with my best friend, I realized he might… have a crush on me?!# 【Straight-talking agency boss who built his company from scratch and has guts X hardworking, gorgeous top actor with incredible acting skills】 Blurb: The day Bai Yao goes bankrupt, his fiancee breaks off their engagement, his fair-weather friends all abandon him, and everyone else avoids him like the plague.

Through the receiver, he hears someone flick a lighter and light a cigarette. “…A Yao?” Liu Yu’s palms are clammy with nerves. “A Yu,” Bai Yao says, his hoarse voice trembling. The sound travels through Liu Yu’s ear and straight into his heart. “Will you give us a try?” Liu Yu thinks of the letter he sent thirteen years ago and waited all this time to hear back about.
