Tao Jiaxu believes in living for the moment.
His comeuppance arrives just before graduation: his thesis is unfinished, his job prospects are uncertain, he hasn't found love, and a pile of other problems is driving him crazy.
The one thing going right is that he managed to rent a pretty nice place in Jiang City, where every inch of land costs a fortune.
If you overlook the fact that his roommate is the former fuck buddy who rejected his confession a month ago.
At dawn on the second day of living together, Tao Jiaxu wakes up in his roommate's bedroom.
He glances at Liang Cheng, fast asleep, and thinks spitefully: Whatever. Free sex. Might as well make use of it.
Gritting his teeth and enduring his aching back, he tries to crawl back to his own room.
Half-asleep, Liang Cheng feels the person in his arms wriggling. The instant Tao Jiaxu crawls a centimeter away, Liang Cheng pulls him back and holds him tight.
"Get off me."
Tao Jiaxu presses a hand against Liang Cheng's chest, his voice hoarse and cold.
Now mostly awake, Liang Cheng irritably turns Tao Jiaxu's face toward him and seals his mouth with a kiss.
