In his second year studying abroad in Britain, Yu Qinzhi was suddenly told that he was the fake young master who had been switched at birth with the heir of a wealthy family.
His biological parents could no longer afford his exorbitant tuition, and his funding for studying abroad was about to dry up completely. Yu Qinzhi had no choice but to pack his bags and prepare to return home. But just then, his sharp-tongued childhood rival, who had a severe case of chuunibyou, suddenly refused to let him go.
Shao Zheye: "So what if your funding got cut? I'll keep you."
Yu Qinzhi: "Thanks, but absolutely not."
Shao Zheye: "..."
Shao Zheye: "No, wait. Have you forgotten? We were promised to each other as babies, grew up together, and were even engaged. You're just going to abandon me like this? How cruel, Xiao Yu."
Yu Qinzhi: "? What is wrong with you? You know that was just a joke between our parents. Besides, I'm not their son anymore."
Shao Zheye stepped forward and hugged him, refusing to let him leave. Taking advantage of being half a head taller, he pulled Yu Qinzhi into his arms with absolutely no regard for his protests. "I don't care. You're not allowed to go back. And you kissed me when you were drunk last time, so now I'm asking you to take responsibility for me, wife."
Yu Qinzhi's ears went red, and he flew into an embarrassed rage. "...Get lost! Who said you could call me that?"
"Now you're embarrassed?" Shao Zheye said, perfectly self-assured. "Then let me kiss you back, and we'll be even."
Yu Qinzhi: "Shut up!"
In the end, somehow they wound up kissing and hooking up with each other. How did things turn out like this?
The truth was, ever since they had come to Britain to study together, Yu Qinzhi had felt that Shao Zheye was acting strange. His childhood rival, who had always competed with him over their studies, had disappeared. Now Shao Zheye did practically nothing except hover around him all day, even tagging along whenever he met someone else. And when Yu Qinzhi's funding was cut, Shao Zheye clung to him relentlessly, even moving into his place to keep a close eye on him and make sure he didn't leave.
"Is there something in the water in Britain?" or "Could Shao Zheye have turned gay?" These thoughts kept circling in Yu Qinzhi's mind. At last, he stared at Shao Zheye and asked, expressionless, the question that cut to the heart of the matter: "You don't suppose... there's something wrong with your head, do you?"
Shao Zheye stared at him and practically laughed in exasperation. "Yeah. I think I've grown a lovesick brain. And that's not all. I think I have 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 closer, pinning Yu Qinzhi around the waist from behind and kissing him on the lips.
