Air Plants

Older man / pseudo-incest

[Composed, self-disciplined model A × bright, boisterous O pretending to be an A]

Shen Wujiu is bright and boisterous, burning with an unrestrained warmth. Anyone who knows him can't help describing him as "larger than life." Even as a teenager, he lived with wild abandon, becoming the brightest person in everyone else's eyes.

The one thing that doesn't match his personality is his pheromone scent: air plants, so faint it's almost impossible to detect. Only his older brother, Yu Jian, has ever seen it at its most intense.

Yu Jian lives by three principles:

First, never lower your standards for any reason.

Second, never change your standards because of who someone is.

Third, be fair and honest, even when no one is watching.

Oh, right. His friends all agree that there should be a fourth: his younger brother Shen Wujiu is the exception.

Yu Jian has always tried to be a good older brother to Shen Wujiu.

So when he first noticed Shen Wujiu's feelings, he couldn't understand them at all. He was certain he'd never crossed a line.

But he forgot that before a qualitative change takes place, there must first be countless small changes.

On windy winter nights, Shen Wujiu would unwind his own scarf and wrap it around Yu Jian's neck, one loop at a time.

When Shen Wujiu had something on his mind, Yu Jian would patiently ask him about it, telling him he never had to hide anything from his brother, because his brother would always be on his side.

He remembered every little thing Shen Wujiu couldn't eat: no scallions, and hawthorn couldn't be too sour. Shen Wujiu would always wait up for him when his evening study sessions ran late, as usual, and go to sleep only after they'd talked about everything that had happened that day...

Wearing the guise of a "good older brother," he taught Shen Wujiu everything he should and shouldn't know.

Shen Wujiu showed him all his love. Holding that love like a trump card, Yu Jian stood safely and confidently above it, savoring and condemning this forbidden affection.

Until one day, he suddenly couldn't get in touch with Shen Wujiu.
