My Rival in Love, My Roommate, Wants to Be My Boyfriend

[The story is complete!] [Please read the guide below before starting. Thank you.] My next story, "I'm Actually the Obsessive Puppy?", is open for pre-orders. The blurb is below. Please take me in! [Story blurb]: The story of two chemistry prodigies from vastly different backgrounds. One was born into privilege, raised in the spotlight, and is confident, elegant, and a little arrogant. The other has struggled through the mud, with his only family member bedridden with a serious illness and seemingly no light ahead. When they finally end up back at the same starting line in college, they can't resist being drawn to each other, and grow together hand in hand. Even if you're surrounded by darkness, you were born to shine in my world. [Reading guide]: 1. There are many antagonists and supporting characters before the story goes VIP. They don't get dealt with until after. Please don't read if that bothers you. 2. They pursue each other mutually and grow together. The top doesn't instantly pamper the bottom the moment they meet. Readers who only want the bottom to be doted on, take note. 3. A college campus story. The leads are roommates. Romance is the main focus, with some PUBG content. 4. Please don't attribute the characters' actions to the author. Thank you for supporting the official release! 5. Personal attacks will be reflected right back. 6. The original blurb differed quite a bit from the story, so it has been revised. Major revision: 2021.1.6 [Blurb for the upcoming story "I'm Actually the Obsessive Puppy?"]: [Selfcest] Xie Anheng, the youngest self-made billionaire in Manbei City, dies. When he opens his eyes again, he discovers he's returned to ten years earlier. And here, there's another thirteen-year-old Xie Anheng: young and fragile, living in the squalid neighborhood from his memories, enduring beatings and abuse from his drunken father day after day. So Xie Anheng takes the name Xie Xingzhi and claims that his older brother is secretly supporting the boy. But the child is still beaten half to death by his drunken father, left to sit in a corner of the yard in the rain, and nearly dies from a high fever. Xie Xingzhi immediately takes little Xie Anheng home. From then on, he personally takes care of everything, from food, clothing, and shelter to his studies, giving the boy anything he wants. The child grows up to excel at everything, but he's too clingy. Even in high school, he insists on sleeping in the same bed. Xie Xingzhi decides this can't go on. Little Xie Anheng needs to grow up. Once the boy can stand on his own, Xie Xingzhi steels himself to let go. He goes overseas to treat the illness left behind by his rebirth, cutting off contact with the child completely. Little Xie Anheng rushes to the airport, but all he can do is watch the plane take off. He doesn't know that from that moment on, his world falls into endless darkness once more. - A year later, Xie Xingzhi returns home and learns that the boy has become a major figure in Manbei City. They meet again at a banquet. Xie Anheng is surrounded by admirers, smiling and laughing. He glances at Xie Xingzhi from across the crowd, his gaze distant and indifferent. The clingy little boy who used to wrap himself around Xie Xingzhi's leg and beg for bedtime stories has truly grown up. For some reason, Xie Xingzhi feels a pang of sadness. He no longer wants to stay at the banquet, and makes an excuse to leave. The moment he opens the door, a tall figure blocks his way. Xie Anheng stands in the doorway, with a pitch-black corridor behind him. He is clearly smiling, yet his eyes are dark and cold. His eyes curve gently as he asks in a soft voice, "Brother, where are you trying to run off to this time?" Theme: It's rare for two people to love each other. When you meet the right person, be brave and seize the chance.
