In this world, there is a "condition" called "Love Disorder Syndrome."
How to put it? It can't exactly be called an illness, since more than a third of the people on Earth probably carry the gene. They're known as "Heart-Peach Carriers."
The symptoms are that whenever they feel their heart flutter, get happy, or see something cute, a tangible little peach heart, like a berry, pops out above their heads, then vanishes into thin air with a pop.
It's not an illness, but if it bothers you, you can develop Peach-Heart Distress.
"How to Control Your Heart," "100 Ways to Keep Love on the Inside," and peach-heart-blocking headbands are all bestsellers with rave reviews.
Shi Wei is a Heart-Peach Carrier.
He doesn't think he's sick. It's just kind of embarrassing sometimes.
But sometimes these unruly peach hearts can be a real boon, you know? Like when he meets the senior he likes. He doesn't even have to say a word, and the senior knows everything.
There's nothing wrong with being embarrassed. It's the senior who matters.
Hehe, the senior.
Theme: In praise of peach hearts.
