A collection of stories about sickly tops
Story One: A sickly top with severe allergies
At twenty-one, Yu Lian had the worst luck imaginable: a genetic mutation left him with severe allergies. His triggers were bizarre and countless, and they seemed to be everywhere.
His condition made it impossible for him to go out and work normally.
To survive, he found himself a rich boyfriend who would let him freeload on food and drink.
The good news: he no longer had to risk his life going out to work.
The bad news: he was allergic to his boyfriend's touch and scent.
He could look, but not partake.
After a while, his rich boyfriend grew dissatisfied and tried to force Yu Lian to consummate their relationship.
After a difficult escape, Yu Lian realized he couldn't stay here. He had to find another way out, which meant finding another boyfriend.
Having learned from experience, Yu Lian set extremely strict conditions for his next boyfriend.
Netizens said Yu Lian was dreaming. How could anyone expect to find an "ATM who would support him without complaint and accept a purely platonic relationship"?
His rich ex-boyfriend also declared that Yu Lian would be doomed without him.
But three months later, Yu Lian was not only still alive, he was thriving.
Guess what?
He really did find an ATM who would support him without complaint and accept a purely platonic relationship!
Story Two: A sickly, blind top from a fallen family, living under someone else's roof
After a sudden family crisis, no one was left to care for Yu Lian, who had unexpectedly gone blind. He was sent to stay with the family of his betrothed, whom he had been promised to since childhood.
The good news: his betrothed and his family were all kind to Yu Lian.
The bad news: Yu Lian couldn't tell who was who.
During his stay, he kept mistaking his betrothed's twin brother for his betrothed, or mistaking his betrothed's cold-faced older brother for him.
Story Three: A sickly, lame fake young master, starved of love and money
The day his identity as a fake young master was exposed, Yu Nuo limped back to the slums in disgrace and found a child in a trash can.
He knew he had no money, no life experience, and a bad leg. Supporting himself was already hard enough, let alone raising a child too.
To help himself and the child get by, he set his sights on Jing Xun, the top student in the apartment block, whom everyone praised.
If he couldn't raise the child on his own, then he would find someone to share the burden with.
