[On indefinite hiatus. Read at your own risk.]
As a thoroughly mediocre student, Chen Jingxi hates aloof top students most of all.
That's because in middle school, he was badly fooled by a top student who seemed cold and aloof but was actually chuunibyou to the extreme.
In front of teachers and classmates, the top student acted like a model pupil. He represented the school in all kinds of competitions and won first prize, and stood on the podium to read speeches at morning assemblies, his school badges gleaming on his chest. Behind the scenes, though, he was hopelessly chuunibyou. He had made up an entire persona for himself and firmly believed he was Augustus Jin, the Lord of the Demon Realm, forced to wander the human world after being framed by evil conspirators. Chen Jingxi, meanwhile, was his queen, Valena.
Chen Jingxi: "...I'm a guy."
Top student: "Darling, that's just appearances. It's all the enemy's scheme. He deliberately reincarnated you as a stinky man to stop us from joining together again, but he underestimated the love between us. I love you for your soul, not your gender."
Chen Jingxi: "..."
Chen Jingxi had never met a real-life case of chuunibyou before, and found it interesting enough to play along, until one day the top student stopped coming to school.
His Majesty the Demon King had disappeared.
On his first day at his new school, Classmate A warns Chen Jingxi that the top student in their class is cold, arrogant, and sharp-tongued, and that he'd better not mess with him.
"Don't worry. The top student and I are sworn enemies," Chen Jingxi says.
At the opening ceremony.
Classmate A: "The one who just spoke at the podium is Lu Yaoye. He's handsome and his family is rich, but he's unbelievably aloof and doesn't think much of ordinary folks like us."
Chen Jingxi: Oh, an old friend. Lu Yaoye, his Majesty the Demon King!
He disappeared for so long and made me worry. Chen Jingxi decides to give him a hard time.
After the ceremony, Chen Jingxi hurries after him and grabs Lu Yaoye by the shoulder, performing the heartbreak of an abandoned demon queen on the spot. "Long time no see, Lu Yaoye. Looks like you've forgotten you're the Demon King stranded in the human world?"
"And you've forgotten that we were going to join forces to conquer the Demon Realm, then get married in front of countless gods and demons once we succeeded?"
"Lu Yaoye, you're unbelievable."
Lu Yaoye's eyes widen in shock: !!!
Why is he here?!
And why is he saying this to me?!
Could he have turned him gay back when he was chuunibyou?!
.
Lu Yaoye, the top student at First High, has a secret.
In middle school, he was deep in the throes of chuunibyou and truly believed he was the ruler of the Demon Realm, Lord of the Stars, incarnation of both chaos and order, and great judge of the gods: Augustus Jin. To make his persona and storyline complete, he even hypnotized himself into believing he had a queen, and fixed his wicked gaze on his cute, baby-faced desk mate.
His desk mate was sweet and adorable, with round puppy eyes. He was clearly the perfect choice for a demon queen.
Lu Yaoye did his best to win him over. Among other things, he tutored Chen Jingxi in foreign languages (the language of demons), geography (the geography of the Demon Realm), and history (an autobiography of a demon king). He also secretly topped up his meal card and paid for ten years of every premium QQ membership feature.
Then his father, who was rarely home, suddenly returned, sent him off to two months of military training, and transferred him to another school.
After that, Lu Yaoye outgrew his chuunibyou phase, became a completely different person, and swore to keep that dark chapter of his past hidden.
But he never imagined Chen Jingxi would show up again, apparently turned gay by him!
Feeling terribly guilty, Lu Yaoye starts tutoring Chen Jingxi again (in the subjects required by the new curriculum), buying him meals, and topping up his meal card, doing everything he can to make it up to him, until he turns himself gay, too.
Now everything is settled. They love each other and can be together.
Lu Yaoye excitedly takes Chen Jingxi's hand and confesses his love with all his heart.
Chen Jingxi: ...
Looking into Lu Yaoye's eyes, Chen Jingxi says innocently, "I was just teasing you. I'm not into you."
Lu Yaoye: ???
Chen Jingxi: "I'm straight. How did you end up gay?"
*There are no supernatural elements. The Demon King and Queen of the Demon Realm are products of the top's chuunibyou fantasies.
*The top and bottom's names come from Zhang Jiuling's poem Gazing at the Moon and Thinking of the Past: "Lovers lament the long night; all night, longing fills their hearts."
*Lu Yaoye is the top, Chen Jingxi is the bottom. The top really was chuunibyou when he was younger, and later really does mistake his own feelings for the bottom's. If that's not your thing, read with caution.
*This is a reunion after a long separation, not a second-chance romance. No melodrama or groveling-for-forgiveness arc. A sweet school story.
*More details to come if I think of any.
Coming soon: Would You Teach Me How to Fall in Love? A sweet little story of around 100,000 characters. See the blurb:
Zhou Bai is like a cheerful puppy and a traveling frog. He loves documenting his life, and when he's happy, he posts several times a day on his social feed, chattering away as he shares everything he hears and sees. When he's unhappy... Zhou Bai is rarely unhappy.
Song Yuncheng is like a distant mountain or the sea at night. People look up to and praise him, and he's used to quietly observing other people's joys and sorrows, but rarely expresses his own feelings. He might not post more than a few times a year.
The underachiever Zhou Bai struggles desperately to make it through his research group and graduate, while the academic star Song Yuncheng has already quietly published several papers and is emerging as a rising star in the field.
Zhou Bai thinks that he and Song Yuncheng have incompatible personalities and move in completely different circles. They probably won't have any meaningful relationship in this lifetime. They'll just lie quietly in each other's contact lists, liking posts about weddings, children, moving house, and promotions.
Until one day, he jokingly posts an offer for a "boyfriend for a day" on his social feed, and Song Yuncheng likes and comments on it immediately.
Song Yuncheng messages him privately: Hello, Zhou Bai. I'd like to use this service.
Zhou Bai is baffled and shocked: ?
Song Yuncheng says politely: Please teach me how to date.
But what Song Yuncheng is really thinking is: Please date me.
Theme: Love life, work hard, and become a better person

If it wasn't me, why would it be like this after half a year of cultivation? I thought I would click on the meeting to get a big update, but it turned out. . .
I read the copy and saved it to read it again, but then I saw the news that it would no longer be written... I hadn't read the previous chapter, so I bought the last chapter to see why it was no longer written. In fact, I think the copy is very interesting and innovative. If there are no big problems, it should be possible to earn more than 10,000 yuan. , After all, it still has some potential. If you find it difficult to write, you can put it down and adjust it. It's okay to practice writing other novels, but I think it's better not to give up on this one. You can put it aside and wait until you feel OK to write again. Because the synopsis of the story is very interesting, there must be people like me who have the same expectations for the finished story, are willing to wait, and are willing to pay for it. I think I will unravel this article first and let some readers who are unwilling to wait go. Then you can pick it up again later, or you can write some when you want to write. If you have enough saved, you can post it here. Sooner or later, those of us who are willing to pay will read it. I still hope that I won't give up easily. Of course, if it's because of this article that I'm really in pain, then I'd better let myself go. I've unlocked the article and we'll see each other again [joined hands]
This book is really good, and it is also a book that I really want to follow. But as an author, if you can't even maintain the perseverance in writing, how can you talk about getting ahead and how can your articles become popular? Readers in the comment area are coaxing you, but if you still give up on yourself, no one can save you. Jie v refunds the money, leaving everyone with some dignity, and at least being responsible to the readers who sincerely follow the article.
I can't bear to part with it, here it comes again, I'll give it another try. The one I read on the list before only cost over 5,000, but now it's over 60,000. Write it well, and the numbers won't be bad as the number of words increases.
Ah ah ah ah ah, tonic, madam, you have just published this article. It is really well written. It is very cute and unique. The characters and plots are not cliché. It is a breath of fresh air in Jinjiang. Where will I find food if you don't update it? Madam, the data can be changed. Madam, you have to have faith in yourself. Heart, if the pressure is too great, we can update other articles by you. When we are free and in the mood, we will code about a thousand, just to coax me, but we can't stop updating. Madam, your outline should have been written. Such a lovely and healing article with such an interesting soul, are you really willing to give up, madam (I can't let you go anyway)
I'll wipe it! I'm convinced! Articles translated from the waiting collection! I only glanced at the copywriting, but I saw Chapter 30 yesterday and didn't realize it was a trap! I clicked in to look at the catalog today and discovered that I was in trouble! If you don't want to write it down, write it down on the copy. . . Obviously I have stepped into this pit before, but after the good times have passed, I don't remember the pain and stepped into it again. . . .
😭 😭 😭 The author is really cute. This article is really cute. Can it be used as a seasoning? When you open a new article, you can update this article when you feel inspired. The number of words can be smaller! I really like this setting. The campus life of Queen Snow Mastiff and His Majesty Augustus is so cute. We want to see more of it 😭 😭
The teacher can practice writing again and come back to writing when he feels satisfied. The subject matter is very interesting, but it's a pity that it was fooled like this 😚
Madam, it's normal for everyone to have bad moments. Sometimes when inspiration comes, things may get better again. Sometimes it's uncomfortable to write it down, but it's not meaningless because these spiritual words have existed. Hope it gets better~
Why did it stop? [Heartbroken] I also received a rebate today...
