In a Relationship With the Rugged Guy Next Door

[Complete! Thank you for your support!]

[Sturdy, brother-obsessed top x adorable crybaby bottom]

Chen Jingming was adopted when he was little and separated from his older brother, Chu Feng, the only family he had.

Years later, he returned to find that his brother had become the owner of a ranch and an orchard.

The cattle and sheep on the ranch were carefree, the orchard's fruit was sweet, and the food in the kitchen was delicious.

Chen Jingming gradually pulled himself out of a low point and returned to creating art.

But lately, he had a small problem.

Chu Feng was being far too good to him, and far too affectionate.

He called him “baby,” carried him whenever they went out, stayed with him when he slept, and even wanted to bathe with him.

Chu Feng was a rugged man with broad shoulders, long legs, and an eight-pack, radiating raw masculinity.

How could a gay guy like Chen Jingming not be tempted? He could only sneak around and avoid him.

Chu Feng's beloved younger brother, Chen Jingming, was finally home.

Love and guilt mingled in Chu Feng's heart. He doted on him and granted his every wish,

wishing he could keep Chen Jingming in his mouth and cherish him for the rest of his life.

But lately, his beloved little brother had been acting strangely, always avoiding him. He wouldn't let Chu Feng sleep while holding him or bathe with him anymore. Chu Feng's heart was shattered. After chasing him with questions for half a month, he finally got Chen Jingming to admit he was gay and couldn't keep acting this way.

Chu Feng thought for three seconds. “Give me some time.”

Chen Jingming: “Huh?”

Chu Feng: “Your big brother will turn gay.”

Reader's Guide:

1. The top and bottom are not related by blood or marriage. One-on-one, happy ending.

2. A straight guy turns gay. Six-year age gap, 18-centimeter height difference, opposites attract, and they're very clingy.

3. Slice of life.

4. Both the top and bottom are virgins.

Next up: My Crush Is Such a Show-Off

[Special effects artist Liang Youzhi x director Yan Qinghe]

Everyone was a little drunk during the second half of the production crew's get-together.

Yan Qinghe, raised in a strict household, stayed as composed and polite as always.

His assistant came over for a chat and mentioned a crush she'd run into on the subway.

She asked, “Director, do you have a crush? What are they like?”

Yan Qinghe: “You know how, when you were a student, there was always that sort of person? A group of friends with a leader, a loner, and a sharp-tongued one. Then there was someone who wasn't very good at school and wasn't especially handsome, but had a great sense of humor and a good personality. He was always fooling around to make everyone laugh. With him around, things never got awkward, even though he was always doing ridiculous, silly things.”

His assistant laughed. “So, a total show-off?”

Yan Qinghe smiled too, his gaze passing over the crowd before settling on Liang Youzhi.

Someone was egging on an intern to dance like a girl-group member. He announced that he was a muscular guy with a nice butt and told them to let him do it.

Yan Qinghe: “That's right. My crush is such a show-off.”

Back in school, when Yan Qinghe was quiet and withdrawn, he had looked at Liang Youzhi like that countless times.

He also remembered watching Star Wars together in a dark room.

Liang Youzhi: “I want to make movies like this someday.”

Yan Qinghe: “That's amazing.”

Liang Youzhi: “What about you? What do you want to do?”

Yan Qinghe said he didn't know. Liang Youzhi stuffed a chip into his mouth and said, “Then come with me!”

Reader's Guide:

1. Includes some school-days scenes. The career storyline involves filmmaking, and the entertainment industry is not portrayed in a conventional way.

2. Mutual unrequited love, two mature men dancing around each other.

3. Because of his upbringing, the bottom is very withdrawn. They lost touch after graduating high school and reunite years later on a film set.

Premise: When you don't know what to do, just live.
