The cheerful, fan-service-loving cosplayer Xia Fanxing (bottom) × the legendary young racing champion Jiang Chu (top)
“Xia Fanxing? You really are just like your name: such a cute girl.”
Jiang Chu would remember for the rest of his life the moment those words slipped out the first time he saw Xia Fanxing working the crowd at an anime convention.
Cute? A girl?
That day, Xia Fanxing was cosplaying an adorably cute female character. He was a man in a dress, and a well-known cosplayer to boot. Jiang Chu was the first person ever to open his mouth and call him a girl.
Jiang Chu stepped forward and tried out a line he hadn't quite gotten the hang of: “May I... collect a photo? Is that what you call it?”
Wearing cute doll-like makeup, Xia Fanxing leaned closer and replied softly and politely, “I'm a boy...”
At their first meeting, one was astonished, while the other found the whole thing immensely amusing...
An unexpected photo opportunity linked the famous cosplayer Xia Fanxing with this handsome, naive young man who was attending an anime convention for the first time.
Until one day, Jiang Mo, Xia Fanxing's number-one fan and Jiang Chu's younger sister, shoved an intimate photo in front of Jiang Chu. “Tell me, when did you start dating Teacher Xia behind my back? Confess and I'll go easy on you!”
Jiang Chu looked completely bewildered. “Dating? Who am I dating?”
Jiang Mo lost it. “Jiang Chu! Aaaaaah! You blockhead! How could you possibly deserve my Teacher Xia?”
Jiang Chu sneered. He still had no idea who she was talking about. “Your brother is a world champion racer. How exactly am I not good enough for this so-called Teacher Xia of yours?”
She was losing it! How could anyone fall for a blockhead like her brother?
“Hmph! You're just not good enough. Teacher Xia Fanxing is so lovely and gentle. You don't deserve him one bit.” Jiang Mo, his number-one fan, fiercely defended her favorite.
“Xia Fanxing?” Jiang Chu finally understood. “That cute boy?”
“Damn it!” Jiang Mo rolled her eyes at him. “He's just good-looking! Don't call him cute. If you don't know what to say, then don't say anything.”
She paused, confused. “Aren't you two dating? You shamelessly pursued him until he agreed, then turned around and pretended not to know him?”
Jiang Chu realized things were heading in an uncontrollable direction, but it was already too late. Among the circles he and Xia Fanxing knew, rumors that they were dating had spread everywhere. Everyone knew.
