One-on-one romance, sweet relationship. The height of summer in sophomore year. An unwelcome guest arrives at home, cold and beautiful, with ice in his eyes. Tang Xingbei is told that this is Fang Lin, the son of his late father's first love, the woman he once adored. Motherless Tang Xingbei lets out a cold laugh and slams the door on his way out. But when the son of the moon transfers to his school, he not only takes Tang Xingbei's title of campus heartthrob, but also steals the top spot in the grade that Tang Xingbei has held for two years. Furious, Tang Xingbei bristles and vows to destroy him: From now on, anyone surnamed Fang is my sworn enemy! Until one day, in a dim, narrow alley, he suddenly sees Fang Lin curled up in a corner, gasping in a sorry state. Beneath the moonlight, the boy is no longer aloof. Fierce defiance radiates from him as he looks over with cold eyes and brows, his white shirt blotched with blood. Meeting his gaze, Tang Xingbei, who had just vowed to destroy him, feels his heart inexplicably soften... Fang Lin will never forget that night. The pampered young master, usually so spoiled and precious, stumbled as he carried him on his back, slowly walking through an empty alley in the dead of night.++ The night is cold and deep. The boy speaks with arrogant bravado, and a clean, warm scent of lemon lingers on him. Fang Lin hears his own heartbeat suddenly come alive. **-Coming Soon: Summer Out of Control-** [Unrestrained young master bottom +X+ a slightly aloof but actually innocent wolf-dog top] At the end of summer, Zhou Siyu heads off alone to a remote county in Z Province, forced to experience three months of small-town life. No one has ever seen a young master so spoiled, flamboyant, and dazzling in that run-down county. When he leans against an alley wall and squints as he mocks people, he is as elegant as a pampered fox. The moment Duan Yao lays eyes on him, a few words immediately come to mind: a devastating beauty. When he later learns that Zhou Siyu likes men, he avoids him even more. But Zhou Siyu seems to find him a novelty for a while, always taunting him whenever they meet. Eventually, he resorts to threats and bribes to move into Duan Yao's home. The young master has been pampered all his life and knows nothing about the ordinary necessities of life. He laughs, rages, and does as he pleases, picking faults every day and taking pleasure in making Duan Yao's life difficult. Unable to bear it any longer, Duan Yao finally resolves to tell him to stop pushing his luck. But then he sees Zhou Siyu, luggage packed, sitting in a silver-gray convertible. He flicks Duan Yao on the forehead and says with a smile, "I'm off. Maybe we'll meet again." Then he lazily pushes up his sunglasses, and the convertible speeds off in grand style. Duan Yao doesn't even have time to say anything. Holding breakfast for both of them in one hand, he stands there in silence, lips pressed together as he looks down the empty street. * Zhou Siyu never had any particular interest in strays, but when he sees Duan Yao dodging him, he finds it amusing and can't resist teasing him a few times. Unfortunately, their three months together are too short. Once his business is finished, Zhou Siyu turns his attention back home and forgets all about Duan Yao. He never expects they'll meet again. On a stormy night, Duan Yao stands drenched in front of Zhou Siyu's villa with his schoolbag on his back, quietly saying that he has come to return something Zhou Siyu left behind when he went away. Zhou Siyu isn't stupid. After a brief moment of surprise, he understands. He watches Duan Yao for a while with a cigarette between his teeth, then suddenly laughs. Theme: Similar souls are drawn to each other, and hardships help people grow.
