After the Tyrant and His Treacherous Minister Shared Sensations

The instant a blade touched his throat, Wen Zhike transmigrated.

He became a notorious treacherous official, standing trial before the emperor.

The young emperor looked down at him, his voice cold. "Take him out and execute him."

Wen Zhike: ...Is it too late to delete my account and start over?

Seeing the guards already approaching, he steeled himself, slammed his forehead to the ground, and put every ounce of sincerity into it.

Then a muffled groan came from above him.

Wen Zhike looked up in confusion. The emperor, who had just been brimming with murderous intent, was clutching his forehead, glaring at him with a mixture of fury and shock.

The emperor laughed in sheer rage, gritting his teeth as he spoke each word. "...Demon, what sort of sorcery have you used?"

Only then did Wen Zhike realize: was he sharing sensations with this tyrant?

*

The new emperor, Zhou Jingqi, had ascended the throne at a young age and was inscrutable. On the very day of his coronation, he intended to execute a treacherous official and restore order to the court.

But before the blade could fall, he became bound to the official through their shared senses.

He couldn't kill him or exile him, so he had no choice but to keep the man close and watch him day and night, scowling all the while.

The court was in an uproar: Lord Wen truly enjoys the emperor's favor!

Wen Zhike, meanwhile, was suddenly full of energy. He played the reformed "loyal official" while exploiting their shared senses to dance along the edge of propriety, testing just how far he could go.

Zhou Jingqi's expression was stern as he demanded, "What are you scheming to gain my trust for?"

Wen Zhike pondered for a moment. "Because... my company hired me?"

Zhou Jingqi: ...

As time passed, Wen Zhike's performance grew ever more convincing. The entire court praised Lord Wen for turning over a new leaf and said the emperor and his minister worked in perfect harmony.

No one knew that the young emperor was being driven to distraction, restless day and night by their endless entanglement of the senses.

Until one night, Zhou Jingqi finally lost his patience and pinned Wen Zhike to the bed. His fingertips brushed Wen Zhike's eyes, his voice low and dangerous:

"Behave yourself, Lord Wen."

"Otherwise... I might find another use for this shared sensation."

Wen Zhike: ...Wait, is that kind of use appropriate?!

Reading guide:

1. Both leads are pure in body and heart, each other's first love, and their feelings are mutual.

3. Their shared sensations will end before things become physically intimate. No role-reversal preferences.

4. The dynasty and setting are fictional. Some aspects of the official system are based on the Tang dynasty, so please don't get hung up on the details.

[Coming soon in my collection] "You Said You Had a Crush on Me?! [Turning a Straight Guy Gay]"

Good student Wei Jixing always followed the rules, but the first time he stepped out of line, he went all in.

He fell for his best friend, Wen Tianxiao.

Wen Tianxiao came from a well-off family and had a naturally charming face that drew admirers wherever he went. Most importantly, he was completely straight.

Knowing he had no chance, Wei Jixing resolved to bury his hopeless feelings deep in his heart and never let them show.

Then he discovered he was cursed: whenever he spoke to the person he liked, he could only say the opposite of what he meant. Every attempt to draw a line came out sounding like flirtation.

"I brought this just for you."

"You're perfect just the way you are."

"You're too far away. Could you come a little closer?"

Wei Jixing: ...

Please, no more! This is going to give everything away!

Young Master Wen had always lived carefree and had everything go his way. Then one day, to his great surprise, something began to bother him:

Why had his best friend suddenly started acting hot and cold? Sometimes he was so distant he wouldn't even let Wen touch him. Other times he was so affectionate, showering him with sweet words as if they cost nothing.

Then one day, inspiration struck, and he suddenly understood: Could Wei Jixing have a crush on me?

Wen Tianxiao, who considered himself a straight guy, was overcome by the sweet dilemma. He decided to gently hint that he couldn't return Wei's feelings, while preserving their precious friendship.

But as time went on...

Wei Jixing is wonderful, but I don't like men. How can I turn him down gracefully?

He's so proud. He'll be heartbroken if I reject him. How should I comfort him?

...Well, it's not as if I couldn't say yes.

He thought he had everything under control. He planned to wait until after the college entrance exams to break the ice, confidently preparing himself to be confessed to. He even worked out how to accept without seeming too eager.

Then the exams ended. Instead of hearing Wei say he liked him, he learned that Wei had quietly applied to a university thousands of miles away, and received a screenshot of his choices scattered across the country.

Wen Tianxiao, who may have been completely making this up in his own head: ???

You said you had a crush on me?!
