Blurb:

The first time Jiang Zhiyu heard the name Wyatt Bertelli was shortly before he went abroad, in a PDF about the American West that had unexpectedly gone viral, even making waves on Chinese social media.

Wyatt Bertelli is a Chinese-Italian mixed-race model and the founder of a top Silicon Valley biotech company. His Chinese name is Duan He. A candid runway photo made him go viral a few years ago, and the editor-in-chief of Vogue called him “born with a luxury-brand face” and “the ultimate hot nerd for sapiosexuals.” He soon became the ideal man for millions of girls.

Wyatt always keeps his composure in public, wearing a gentlemanly smile and acting polite and low-key. Then a PDF set off a storm in the study-abroad groups, pushing his fame to new heights.

“Oh, Duan He? When the young master was in kindergarten in Beijing, he had four or five bodyguards escorting him. Of course he can do whatever he wants in the American West.”

Jiang Zhiyu never expected that the male model from the infamous PDF would become his roommate after he landed in California.

He also never expected Wyatt to be not merely different from the rumors, but completely unrelated to them.

The first time Wyatt came to Jiang Zhiyu's room to explain a problem, he held Jiang Zhiyu's hand and stared at him with lake-blue eyes. “Jiang, don't be nervous. I'm just showing you how it's done.”

The second time, Jiang Zhiyu got drunk, and Wyatt kissed him. Jiang Zhiyu felt there was something wrong with it, but Wyatt said, “This is just a way for friends to comfort each other. Trust me.”

The third time, Wyatt wore the gold-rimmed glasses Jiang Zhiyu liked best. His tall figure leaned over the bed, and his long fingers had already undone most of Jiang Zhiyu's shirt buttons.

Jiang Zhiyu suddenly snapped back to his senses. “No! Can we still call ourselves straight if we do this?”

Wyatt looked at him without answering.

Jiang Zhiyu frowned and called him by his Chinese name to show he was serious. “Duan He.”

Wyatt's eyes suddenly darkened. Fixing his gaze on Jiang Zhiyu, he coaxed him patiently, one step at a time. “Of course we can, baby. I promise.”

…

The next day, Jiang Zhiyu rubbed his aching waist. His lips were swollen and red. The more he thought about it, the angrier he got. “Damn it. How could I have believed that lunatic?”

Some time later:

Jiang Zhiyu: “…Do you have, um, some kind of addiction?”

Wyatt fell silent for a moment, then answered honestly. “Sorry. Does it bother you?”

Jiang Zhiyu froze and instinctively edged backward toward the sofa. “W-what does it have to do with me?”

Wyatt grabbed him by the ankle, his gaze deep and dark as he leaned closer. “How could it have nothing to do with you, baby?”

Reader's guide:

1. The college setting in the American West is for reference only. There are invented details, and the setting is fictional. Everything serves the plot, so please don't overanalyze it.

2. Both are each other's first love, and this is a sweet HE. The PDF rumors will be clarified.

CP: Duan He (Wyatt Bertelli) x Jiang Zhiyu

3. Basically: A seemingly gentlemanly rich kid at an American university uses all kinds of schemes to win over a pretty, slow-on-the-uptake kitten 💛 (refined scumbag x silly beauty)

4. Important: The gong isn't a gentleman. He often takes advantage of his boyfriend, and becomes possessive later on. He has very high moral standards. Please think carefully before reading if you can't accept this. If you find the free chapters aren't for you, you can leave at any time. No need to tell me you're dropping it. Writing advice is politely declined. There are countless good books out there, and I hope you find one to your taste.

Blurb:

In his second year studying in the UK, Yu Qinzhi was suddenly told that he was the fake heir who had been switched at birth in a wealthy family.

His biological parents could no longer afford his expensive tuition, and his study-abroad funding was about to be cut off completely. Yu Qinzhi had no choice but to pack his bags and prepare to return to China. But just then, his sharp-tongued childhood friend and sworn enemy, who had a severe case of chuunibyou, suddenly refused to let him go.

Shao Zheye: “So what if your funding's cut? I'll keep you.”

Yu Qinzhi: “Thanks, but absolutely not.”

Shao Zheye: “…”

Shao Zheye: “No way. Have you forgotten? We were betrothed as kids, we've been childhood friends forever, and we were engaged. You're just going to abandon me like this? That's so cruel, Xiao Yu.”

Yu Qinzhi: “What? What are you going on about? You know that was just a joke between our parents. Besides, I'm not their son anymore.”

Shao Zheye hugged him and wouldn't let him leave. Since he was half a head taller, he unfairly pinned Yu Qinzhi against his chest. “I don't care. You're not allowed to go back. And you kissed me when you were drunk last time, so now you have to take responsibility for me, wife.”

Yu Qinzhi's ears turned red with embarrassment and anger. “…Get lost! Who said you could call me that?”

“Now you're embarrassed?” Shao Zheye said, perfectly unashamed. “Then let me kiss you back, and we'll call it even.”

Yu Qinzhi: “Shut up!”

In truth, ever since the two of them came to the UK to study together, Yu Qinzhi had felt that Shao Zheye was acting strange. The childhood enemy he'd always competed with over their grades had disappeared. Shao Zheye did almost nothing all day except hang around him, and even followed him whenever he met other people. Now that Yu Qinzhi's funding had been cut, Shao Zheye was more persistent than ever, moving into his home and personally keeping an eye on him to make sure he didn't leave.

“Is there something in the British water?” or “Could Shao Zheye have turned gay?” The two thoughts kept going around in Yu Qinzhi's head. Finally, he stared at Shao Zheye and asked the question that cut to the heart of things, expressionless: “You don't have… something wrong with your head, do you?”

Shao Zheye stared at him and laughed in exasperation. “Yeah. I think I caught a case of lovesickness. And that's not all. I think I've also developed a condition where I get hard whenever I see you. What should I do? Want to help me treat it?”

As he spoke, Shao Zheye suddenly stepped forward, firmly held Yu Qinzhi around the waist from behind, and kissed him.
