"What you think is a coincidence is something I've been planning for a long time."
A childhood-friends-to-lovers story about secretly crushing on each other.
This is the story of a little country pig trying to get his snout into a cabbage patch.
After admiring himself in the mirror, the famously chuunibyou high schooler Qiao Yifeng shamelessly says to his buddy, "Man, this irresistible charm of mine is impossible to contain. Come on, tell me, are you secretly in love with me?"
The model student and everyone else's perfect kid, Xiao Ruichen: "Mm. For many years."
Qiao Yifeng: "I knew it... Wait, you're really in love with me?!"
What do you do when the buddy you've had for over ten years suddenly confesses to you? Help, I'm in a hurry!!
Bonus scene:
When they were friends:
Halfway up a mountain.
Qiao Yifeng: "I'm exhausted. Lao Xiao, come help your dad out."
Xiao Ruichen: "Sure. I'll break your legs and carry you up." He quietly picks up a stick.
Qiao Yifeng: "Have mercy, hero!!"
After they get together:
In the morning, Qiao Yifeng can't be woken up.
Qiao Yifeng: "I won't get up unless Lao Xiao gives me a kiss~"
The action-oriented Xiao Ruichen bends down and plants a loud kiss on his cheek.
Shameless Qiao Yifeng: "The other side! I need one on the other cheek too."
Cunning, reserved, gentle househusband gong x hilarious top-tier comedian shou who insists on being the gong
Side couple:
A seemingly aloof, secretly lovesick, romance-brained gong x a rebellious, prickly, chuunibyou shou
Reader's guide:
1. Both the main and side couples are each other's first. The author has a serious cleanliness obsession.
2. The shou is plain-looking and not especially smart, just an average high school boy.
3. It won't be very long. The author's writing is elementary-school level and makes no sense. There's no outline; I'm just winging it and writing wherever the mood takes me, so it may be completely over the top.
4. Qiao Yifeng and Qiao Yinan are fraternal twins and don't look alike.
5. There will be a child, adopted, who will appear later or in the extras.
The book was originally titled Bent Together, now retitled I've Been Longing for You for Ages.
