[Transmigration] [Childhood Friends] [Secret Crush] [System] [A Story Within a Story] [Dotingly Protective Daddy Type]
Yu Qiu and Ye Qinze grew up together, closer than brothers. Whenever Yu Qiu was hungry or tired, Ye Qinze would already have exactly what he wanted in front of him before he even had to ask.
Their friends often sighed, “Why don't you two just get together?”
Whenever that happened, Yu Qiu would brush it off, while Ye Qinze silently watched him.
They thought their feelings would ultimately come to nothing, but unexpectedly, the two of them transmigrated into a novel about an elite academy.
Yu Qiu became a minor character bullied by the F4, while Ye Qinze was the leader of the F4.
If they went out of character, they would be punished with an electric shock.
Yu Qiu tried to fight back, but got shocked until he was battered and bruised. In the end, he could only accept his fate.
During the day, to attract the protagonist's attention, Ye Qinze had someone pour water on him.
Yu Qiu crouched on the floor, shoulders hunched, tears streaming down his face. Even his fingers trembled as he wiped the floor.
No one saw Ye Qinze turn away, his fingertips clenched so tightly they had gone white.
At night, with the door shut, Ye Qinze would sneak into his room and pull him into his arms, gently brushing Yu Qiu's tear-stained cheek with his thumb as he whispered, “Does it hurt?”
Yu Qiu glared at him with red-rimmed eyes. “You poured cold water on me, and you're asking if it hurts?”
Ye Qinze lowered his gaze to the red marks on Yu Qiu's knees, his voice very quiet. “I'll have them use warm water tomorrow. Just hold on for a few more days.”
Yu Qiu sniffled and muttered, “...Fine. It's too cold.”
Ye Qinze's hand paused.
Without looking up, he continued applying ointment, his voice muffled. “It'll be over soon.”
Yu Qiu said nothing more. He curled up in Ye Qinze's arms to keep warm, drowsy and half-asleep as he mumbled, “That damn System...”
Ye Qinze looked down at the person in his arms.
Yu Qiu's eyelashes were still damp, his cheeks flushed. He slept like a soft, sweet little cake, completely unguarded.
Ye Qinze watched him for a long time, then let out a quiet sigh.
“Just hold on a little longer.”
They spent their days acting and their nights together. Yu Qiu grew more and more dependent on Ye Qinze, and Ye Qinze's gaze grew deeper and deeper.
The day the System disappeared, Ye Qinze bent down in front of everyone and lifted Yu Qiu off the floor.
“Anyone who lays a hand on him will answer for it.”
After that, Yu Qiu never had to wipe the floor again.
He sat on Ye Qinze's lap and ate strawberries, which Ye Qinze had washed himself and fed to him by hand.
The whole school knew that the little punching-bag who got water thrown on him had been doted on by Ye Qinze beyond all reason.
Only Ye Qinze knew how long he had held back.
#My childhood friend has a crush on me, but I don't know itヽ(*≧ω≦)ノ#
#I'm finally done playing an actor!!!#
#Is Daddy doting on me again today?#
P.S. The System only appears in a small part of the story, so you can ignore it.
