Cheerful, optimistic, sweet bottom vs. cool guy top who's not what he seems
[He would drown in Xia Zhichan's sweet web, and welcome it gladly.], Xu Zhou
Xu Zhou thought back more than once to the first time he met Xia Zhichan.
He was wearing orange-yellow overalls, his fluffy hair lit by the sunlight. When he looked up at Xu Zhou, he reminded him so much of his dead golden retriever, Andy. Xu Zhou mischievously passed by him and stuffed a handful of dirt into his clothes.
He was certain he would never see this pitiful little idiot again. But then the pretty darling showed up at his doorstep, accusing him of something he hadn't done.
Holding a glass bowl, he had been sent by his unsuspecting mother to deliver a gift to the new neighbors.
The little tomatoes in the glass bowl were bright red, and so were Xia Zhichan's eyes.
From then on, Xu Zhou was convinced Xia Zhichan was another Andy sent to him by his mother in heaven. No matter how badly Xu Zhou treated him, Xia Zhichan would look at him pitifully and wag his tail.
Until one day, Xia Zhichan was trembling as he cried, biting his finger and licking his wounds, his miserable eyes brimming with tears.
He asked Xu Zhou why he would treat himself that way.
Xu Zhou wiped away Xia Zhichan's tears and, with an air of absolute certainty, told him, "Xia Zhichan, you're mine."
"No one can ever take Xia Zhichan away from me."

New story: The Love Liar Turns Over a New Leaf (complete draft):
Aloof, striking, ruthless top who fights fire with fire vs. gorgeous, irresistible scum bottom who gets away with murder
How would you describe Xie Shu?
His fans say: "A drunkard's grace, a fleeting beauty like a pearl in the foam."
If you asked Pei Yanchuan, he'd say: "A liar who plays favorites, the biggest scumbag of all."
At sixteen, Xie Shu knelt on one knee and spoke sweetly. "I'll love only you, Fawn, for the rest of my life. When I become a superstar one day, I'll propose to you under the spotlight." Eighteen-year-old Pei Yanchuan was bewitched by that pretty face that belonged in hell. He gave Xie Shu money, his heart, and every resource he could. But when Xie Shu shot to fame, Pei Yanchuan discovered that behind the scenes, Xie Shu had already sworn to share his life and death with many others. Only after the lies were exposed did Pei Yanchuan realize he was nothing but a clown playing second fiddle.
He went mad with rage, but Xie Shu slipped away without a trace. Pei Yanchuan heard nothing from him for six years.
Then, years later, the phone whose bill he had continued paying all that time rang, and he heard that familiar voice again. Xie Shu said he was back. He said that this time, he would love and cherish him properly.
By then, Pei Yanchuan had already founded a leading film and entertainment company. He no longer believed Xie Shu's promises. They were as fragile as bubbles, ready to burst at a touch.
He hated Xie Shu. He wanted to weave a dream for him, lift him up to the heavens, then drag him off his pedestal in front of the feverish crowd and thundering applause, so the world could see him for who he really was.
Yes, that was what he intended to do.
But in his diary, in the underground bar when a battered old guitar began to play, and under the spotlight at the awards ceremony, he sang that old song by Li Zongsheng again, "Spellbound":
[Someone asked me what it is about you that keeps me from forgetting you after all these years. Not even the loveliest spring breeze can compare to your smile. Those who have never met you could never understand.]
When the song ended,
Before the eyes of the crowd, he called Xie Shu by name, his voice teasing yet tender: "Heaven or hell, through every blade-strewn mountain and sea of fire, Pei Yanchuan, I'll go with you."
"I will love you, be faithful to you, and promise you forever."
He had a way of enchanting people. He made Pei Yanchuan's heart, already shattered into eight pieces, beat again, fiercely and painfully. Pei Yanchuan could do nothing but surrender to him all over again.
Content warnings: Neither the top nor the bottom is a good person. Both are sexually inexperienced.
The bottom's childhood trauma is what leads to his flirtatious, carefree personality later on.
The top is a complete mad dog who simply loves him, loves him like crazy. If that's not your thing, run.

Gong is so paranoid, he is a cruel person!
I spent an hour reading a piece of shit. Writing so badly is a talent, right?
It was still uncomfortable to read it again after an hour. After reading the catalog, it was even more uncomfortable. There were two little bitter gourds, one had not finished school and had to work to pay off debts and shoulder family responsibilities, and the other was "stabbed in the back by the person he liked" and suffered from mental illness and pressure from his father. Xiaozhou is also a mouthless person. He doesn't say how much he misses him when they meet. He has forgotten all the weakness he showed in his school days. He only knows how to take things by force. There are still misunderstandings when looking at the catalog. He also threatens Xiaochan. He is a worthless man [turned into]. Xiaochan has experienced such a big blow, the "force" of his friends, his mother's serious illness and huge debts, and his sunny and cheerful turned into a cowardly child. So pitiful 🙏
I need to slow down, this guy is so annoying
", Find one around your waist" to catch a big bug for the author~ want
Ahhhh, what a disgusting man! We, Xiaochan, are obviously going to live a good life and have our own shop. Why do you still bother us, Xiaochan? Do things, do things, you know those things all day long, it's a good end
Ah ah ah, if you can't say anything nice, sell it, Xuzhou
Ah, ah, you didn't take the college entrance examination. Xu Wei, you deserve death. Did Xiaochan get her high school diploma? Isn't it possible that she will all have a junior high school diploma in the future?
I'm glad that Xiaochan will leave later, otherwise Xiaochan will definitely start to hate Zhou with this way of getting along, and the bloody plot will break out, and the drama of "I love you but you don't love me" will begin. It's better to leave. Time will put a veil on the old friend again, allowing people to recall the good past instead of pain.
So annoying, so annoying, both Gong and his dad are so annoying. Is Xia Zhichan an adult? She was forced to do it and then had to go to the hospital the next day. It must be very uncomfortable. What a pitiful cicada.
