Can’t You Just Let Me Have My Way?

[Started on July 11, 2020, completed on October 5, 2020!!!]

My next book, Reborn as the Aloof School Hunk, I Tried to Win Myself Over. Please add it to your favorites! The blurb is at the very bottom.

I've also got some mutual top/bottom romance novels coming soon: Uncle, My Boyfriend Is Someone I Found and Spoiled, and I Only Like Your Face... They're so niche. This struggling author could use some warmth, mwa~

(Blurb for this novel)

Lin Qianxing is the terror of Danxia Alley. With earrings, tattoos, and a mohawk, he drove his stepfather out of the house with a stick when he was thirteen, and became a carefree little landlord.

Young Master Yuan Ze refuses to accept anything his parents arrange. The family business? No way. A business marriage? Are you crazy? Go home after graduation? Only if I'm dead. So his father cuts off his allowance.

*The young master is so broke he can hear the wind whistling through his pockets, yet he's ridiculously fussy. He knocks on the little landlord's door to rent a room, but owes the deposit, rent, utilities, and everything else. He wishes he could take eight showers a day, and his list of forbidden foods goes on and on... The little landlord furrows his thick brows and ponders life: "Where did this troublesome thing come from?"

*At Huada University's School of Design, the troublesome young master stands under the big red banner welcoming the freshmen. He strides into the crowd and grabs the little landlord's suitcase. A senior beside them pats the little landlord on the shoulder. "Well, well, the department's campus heartthrob and student union president is carrying your suitcase himself. What an honor."

The young master, who is busy twisting the cap off a bottle of mineral water for the little landlord, isn't happy. "Who said you could touch him? Nobody but me is allowed to touch him."

*[A short scene] "Who were you looking at just now?" Yuan Ze tilts his head and looks intently into Lin Qianxing's eyes. "Were you looking at me?"

Lin Qianxing goes stiff as the pile of lumber on the ground. He discreetly slows his breathing, hastily calms his pounding heart, and pulls himself together. Raising his voice, he says, "Yeah. You're so damn good-looking. What's wrong with taking a couple extra looks?"

Yuan Ze takes a bite of his popsicle. "You can look. I'll let you look for ten thousand years."

Lin Qianxing tosses the wooden kitten back to Yuan Ze and frowns at the pattern on the floor. "You talk too much. Looking for a beating?"

Yuan Ze looks at him and gives a mocking laugh. "It's just the two of us here. You tell me, which one of us is looking for a beating?"

Lin Qianxing: ...

Short-tempered little landlord vs. scheming young master

One-on-one, evenly matched, both virgins, happy ending.

Blurb for Reborn as the Aloof School Hunk, I Tried to Win Myself Over:

*

Ai Xingcheng has been in a terrible mood lately.

He's nothing but an utterly ordinary underachiever. He can't understand why the school hunk, who is always aloof and cold and can freeze a row of admirers with a single glance, has suddenly started paying so much attention to him.

Going to school together is one thing. Sharing a lunch table is something he can put up with. But the guy even applied to sit beside him for one-on-one tutoring?

Ai Xingcheng: Why not just say you want to sleep in the same bed as me?

Wei Ji: It's not like that wouldn't work.

Ai Xingcheng: ??? The hell with you, I'm homophobic!

He has no idea that although Wei Ji is wearing that body, someone else has long since taken over from within. That person is none other than Ai Xingcheng himself, eight years in the future, after a miserable death.

*

In his previous life, Ai Xingcheng lived like a joke. He got injured while young after stepping in to fight on someone else's behalf, achieved nothing by the age of twenty-five, and eventually died after a drunken episode made him sick, drowning in a puddle.

But when he opened his eyes, he wasn't dead. Instead, he had been reborn in the body of Wei Ji, his classmate from back then.

"Wei Ji" sat in his own seat, staring intently at Ai Xingcheng.

At the time, Ai Xingcheng was nothing but a rebellious youth. He was reckless and unruly, but his handsome features had yet to be marked by spite and despair.

Back then, no father had loved him and no mother had cared for him. He had lived an unremarkable life, and hardly anyone attended his funeral.

Since fate had given him another chance, he would watch over his younger self and keep him from going astray.

*

The students of Yucai No. 1 High School would never forget that day. In front of countless classmates, their school hunk, who never showed anyone an ounce of kindness, clasped Ai Xingcheng's hand tightly and confessed passionately: "From now on, you are me and I am you. We are inseparable. I will always take good care of you."

Onlookers: This is so sweet!

Ai Xingcheng: ???

And so, the sweetest couple in the whole school was born.

Ai Xingcheng (Everyone says I'm bad, so I'll be bad for them to see) * Wei Ji (Everyone says you're bad, but I'll show them just how good you can be)

Theme: Dust cannot hide a young man's light. No one can stop them from flying against the wind.
