Synopsis
【Ice-cold, oblivious seme who only loves animals x gorgeous, sharp-tongued, money-loving uke who thinks he’s straight】 Lu Weiqing opened a pet funeral studio next door to a veterinary clinic. Business was so slow that he had to hand out flyers at the clinic’s entrance. Without paying attention, he shoved one into the hand of a tall, long-legged, pale-skinned hunk. All he got in return was a frigid “How unlucky.” Hey, wasn’t this the clinic’s owner? So he was a walking iceberg. Big deal! He was the kind of person who responded to kindness but bristled at force, prickly as a hedgehog. All he could think about was making that obnoxious man apologize. So he found reasons to get close to him, showering him with affectionate “Brother Ji”s, thoughtful breakfasts, bright smiles, and playful comfort whenever he was down. He offered all of it without realizing that his own heart was quietly racing. Ji Hanzhang had loved animals since childhood and opened several veterinary clinics. He’d never had such an unlucky neighbor before. The man went against everything Ji believed in about saving lives, and he found him infuriating. Ji thought that after their argument they’d never meet again, but the man started following him around like a ghost, showing up wherever he went. In the end, that man left an indelible mark on Ji Hanzhang’s heart, like the plum-blossom pawprints a kitten left on a blank white canvas. Ji’s principles melted like cream, and the chill in his eyes turned to spring water. One night, at a little tavern lit by flickering candlelight, Lu Weiqing was tipsy and nestled against Ji Hanzhang’s chest. “I... I have to tell you... Ever since we first met, I... I’ve wanted you to...” His words faded between their lips, tempting Ji Hanzhang to lean closer. “Wanted me to what?” Their shadows overlapped on the wall. Ji’s tall frame enveloped the slender man, his large hand gripping that narrow waist. “To be with you forever. How about it?” The next morning, Lu Weiqing felt something rubbing back and forth over his lips as he slept. He woke with a start, aching all over. “Ji Hanzhang! I want you to apologize! What did you do to me?” The man’s eyes were dark as he held the back of Lu Weiqing’s neck. His voice was still hoarse with sleep. “Look at me.” Lu Weiqing’s eyes darted from side to side, unable to meet his gaze, and he couldn’t hide the flush on his cheeks. 【Bonus scene】 After they got together, Ji Hanzhang always wanted to wrap his arms around Lu Weiqing’s waist and hold him close. His eyes were full of gentle smiles. “Baby, today there’s something strawberry-flavored...” But this money-making little minx slipped out of his arms and counted on his fingers. “Oh, I have three appointments tomorrow. I’ll be busy, so go sleep in the spare room, okay? Be good~” Warning: Partially fictional setting. Same-sex marriage is legal. 【The following is a future book.

Thanks!】 Handsome, dashing nouveau riche uke who’s secretly a romantically fastidious, older virgin and a comical mess VS a seemingly innocent, easygoing fox spirit seme who’s actually scheming and fiercely possessive (in short, a fake innocent) Jiang Sinian came from a wealthy family and was good-looking, but at 29, he was still a virgin. After his friends got him drunk at his birthday party, he lost a game of dare and was forced to hit on a handsome college guy: “Hey, handsome, want a sugar daddy?” Unexpectedly, the guy thought about it for a moment, then nodded. Fueled by alcohol and tempted by the guy’s good looks, Jiang Sinian took him home. He thought he’d be the one on top, calling the shots. Instead, the college guy took off his pants and said, “Big brother, in a gay relationship, whoever’s bigger tops.” Jiang Sinian glanced down, eyes wide and lips trembling. “I-is that so?” The next morning, he awoke from a spring dream, thinking about the starry night they’d shared. Looking at the college guy’s chiseled physique, Jiang Sinian decided the experience had been pretty good and signed a sugar-baby agreement with him. He thought he’d simply taken in a poor little canary from a poor family. Then he noticed the guy wore brands that made Jiang Sinian wince whenever he bought them, and watched him move through all sorts of places with him as if he belonged there, never looking out of place. Jiang Sinian couldn’t help but wonder. The college guy just smiled. “The clothes are knockoffs from Putian. You think I can’t act the part?” As he spoke, he pulled Jiang Sinian into his arms and ran a finger over his lips. “Big brother, you’re not paying attention.” Jiang Sinian grew more and more confused as the college guy kissed him. Which of this guy’s words were true? * He Jinchao was the sole heir to one of the capital’s most prominent families. Having grown up watching his parents put on a show for each other, he never took romance seriously and only chased after endless fun. A junior in college, he was buying late-night snacks for his roommate outside the campus gates when a drunk asked if he wanted a sugar daddy. Looking at that clean, fair face and hearing the guy’s friends egg him on from behind, “Come on, old virgin!” Sure, the guy was clean and easy on the eyes, and it sounded like fun, so He Jinchao agreed. To hide his identity and make things even more fun, He Jinchao really did pass himself off as an innocent college student. “Big brother, I don’t know how. Teach me.” But after a few nights together, his sugar daddy turned out to be nothing like he’d expected. Jiang Sinian was ambitious and hardworking, not someone who wallowed in the joy of suddenly becoming rich through his family. The sugar baby had only been in it for the sex, and didn’t notice his own heart gradually falling for Jiang Sinian. Then he overheard Jiang Sinian’s parents arranging a blind date for him. Furious, He Jinchao restrained himself, changed into a custom-tailored suit, and strolled over to Jiang Sinian and his date. He glanced sidelong at the other man, gripped Jiang Sinian’s chin, and kissed him. “Sugar daddy, this contract is for life. Don’t tell me you’re going to play around and then abandon me?” Theme: Love life, love your work, and embrace love
