I'm So Socially Anxious, I Can Only Date Online

[Chapters 64 through 73 have been extensively revised, with over 30,000 characters added. The ending differs from pirated versions.] Tang Yumian is socially anxious. A typical otaku: all confidence online, a shrinking violet in real life. Brave enough to have a crush, but not brave enough to confess. Only after learning that his crush had gotten a partner did he do the most daring thing of his life: start an online relationship. * His online partner was thoughtful and gentle, and even played games with him. But just as Tang Yumian was getting completely carried away and falling for his online partner... His roommate asked him, "Why haven't you added them as a friend?" Tang Yumian said, "I did." His roommate sent him the contact details again. After comparing them, Tang Yumian was stunned. Good heavens! Who had I been talking to all this time?! * Much later, Tang Yumian saw their chat window in his crush's friend list. "…" That night, he bought a standing-room train ticket. When the truth finally came out, Tang Yumian glared at the tall young man in front of him, his lips turned down in a pout, looking both aggrieved and flustered at having been kept in the dark. "I know what I did was wrong, and shameless and despicable." Sui Rang gazed at him. Beneath his lashes, his dark eyes held a quiet tenderness and deep affection. "But I don't want to be decent. I want you." * The top doesn't have a girlfriend. It was a misunderstanding. There are gaming scenes and cross-dressing. A preview of "My Rival Is Actually Deeply in Love with Me" The bottom and the top are sworn rivals. Everyone who knows them knows they're total opposites. One is a volcano, the other an iceberg. They were destined to clash. They competed all through high school and university, then carried on through their master's and doctoral degrees. After taking over their family businesses, they started competing over company profits, product development, and everything else, even driving up the GDP of the entire city. They even competed over charity work, trying to see who could donate more and build more Hope Primary Schools, until they turned some remote mountain village into a tourist attraction. * One day, the mole the bottom had planted in the top's company sent word that the top was negotiating a new project with a certain company and was about to sign a contract. The bottom was furious when he heard. His own company was negotiating for the same project. The signing had been put on hold because the company's shareholders were divided. How could he let someone else take the prize right from under his nose, especially when that someone was the top? So the bottom had a sudden inspiration. The day before the top was due to sign the contract, he arranged a banquet and invited him under the pretext of "cooperation for mutual success." Everyone knew the top had no tolerance for alcohol and got drunk after one drink. If the bottom could get him drunk, tomorrow's contract signing would surely fall through. The top showed up as promised on the night of the banquet. So the bottom pulled out all the stops and kept pouring drinks for him. Just as the bottom was about to tentatively ask about the top's plans for the company's future and its development strategy, the sworn rival suddenly sat up straight, took off his glasses, and brought up the fact that he had been secretly in love with someone for years. The bottom uncrossed his legs. Uh... Is this something I'm allowed to hear? He quietly took out his phone and started recording. Then the man who usually competed against him at every turn confessed his feelings to him. The bottom: Cat with a shocked face.jpg He really can't hold his liquor, huh? Their friends stared with their mouths hanging open. Wow, I think we just learned some earth-shattering secret! Half an hour later. The bottom's face was flushed. He clamped one hand around the man's neck and covered his mouth with the other. "Okay, stop talking. I get it. Keep going and I'll have to silence you." The man struggled. "No, honey, listen to me. Remember when I said you looked like an insurance salesman in a suit? I'm sorry, honey, I lied. You have no idea how hard it was to hold back from tying you up with my tie and taking you home. I even know you've got a really sexy mole on your butt. Mmmph..." Their friends' eyes widened like saucers. He is so in love. That night, security carried the top out horizontally. * Theme: Study hard and keep improving every day.
