Just a Little Couple's Game

[Coming soon: But He Calls Me "Hubby" [Campus] and But He Calls Me "Baby" [Book Transmigration]. Their blurbs are below. The blurb for this novel is right here↓↓↓] Lu Yaoge and Yan Bozui had been inseparable childhood friends since they were little. They held hands when they walked and slept with their heads touching. After bathing, they helped each other dry their hair, clean their ears, and trim their nails. At meals, they served each other food, picked out bites, and fed each other, then wiped each other's mouths and hands. But they knew they were just friends. * While they were hiking, a girl asked Yan Bozui to carry her things. Yan Bozui: "It's light. You can carry it yourself. You have to be independent and self-reliant. Don't always depend on other people." After saying that, he looked at Lu Yaoge with concern. "Is your backpack heavy? Do your feet hurt? Never mind, I'll carry you instead." The girl: So much for being independent and not relying on others? * Lu Yaoge wanted to pursue the campus belle, so of course Yan Bozui, his best friend, had to help him come up with a plan. Yan Bozui: "The campus belle forgot her umbrella today. Lend her yours. She'll be touched." Lu Yaoge gave his umbrella to the campus belle, then tugged at Yan Bozui's coat. Yan Bozui understood at once. He spread the coat over their heads, shielding himself and Lu Yaoge, and walked past the campus belle in the rain. The campus belle: "..." * Everyone knew Lu Yaoge and Yan Bozui were an unbearably clingy, doting couple. Only those two idiots kept insisting they were friends. Their rivals: "Damn clingy couple. If I go near you two again, I'm an idiot." Their friends: "Ha, just a couple's little game. Trying to lure us in and kill us? Not falling for it!" * After getting his heart broken several times, Lu Yaoge got drunk. Yan Bozui comforted him. "Their looks, personalities, talents, and figures were only so-so. You deserve someone better." Lu Yaoge: "Is there really someone that great?" Yan Bozui searched through his memories and realized that, apart from himself, there was no one worthy of Lu Yaoge. He hesitated. "What do you think of me?" Lu Yaoge froze. He met Yan Bozui's deep gaze for two seconds, then slowly blushed. "I think that could work." * A perpetually lovelorn, brave yet timid, bad-at-it-but-always-flirting, clingy and affectionate puppy bottom x a celibate, double-standard, fiercely protective, daddy-type, beautiful and indulgent cat top One-on-one, both are each other's first and only, sweet romance with a happy ending [Note] The bottom never liked any of the girls and never led them on. In the blurb, the "pursuing girls" part comes about because a girl confessed to him, he told her honestly that he didn't like her, and she said they could get to know each other first. His roommate said, "You're a guy. How can you make the girl take the initiative? You should make the first move." That's how the scene in the blurb came about. The girl from the blurb appears in Chapter 4. You can read it first, dear readers. I promise the top and bottom only have eyes for each other from beginning to end. [But He Calls Me "Hubby" [Campus], a sweet, silly campus romance told from the bottom's perspective↓↓↓] Everyone at Nancheng No. 1 High School knew that the aloof beauty Gu Xuemian couldn't stand the unruly school bully Lu Xingye. Lu Xingye thought so too. When Lu Xingye was getting food in the cafeteria, Gu Xuemian deliberately ordered the same thing. Lu Xingye: He's provoking me. When Lu Xingye was kicked out of class, Gu Xuemian watched him leave with concern. Lu Xingye: He's gloating. When Lu Xingye played basketball, Gu Xuemian sat under a nearby tree and pretended to study, but was really sneaking glances at him. Lu Xingye: He's mocking me for being all brawn and no brains. Damn it, how can I put up with that? So Lu Xingye left the court, stood right in front of Gu Xuemian, took off his sweat-soaked shirt, and threw it in his face. He braced an arm against the tree behind him and threatened him fiercely, "If you look at me again, I'll make sure you can't get out of bed for a month." (He meant he'd break his legs.) Gu Xuemian looked at Lu Xingye's chest, right in front of him, and blushed slowly, thinking of something. * Gu Xuemian had been secretly in love with Lu Xingye for two years. He had thought it would stay that way until graduation, but then he hit his head and came to believe his family had abandoned him and sold him to Lu Xingye as a child bride. In his hospital bed, Gu Xuemian looked around coldly. The moment he saw Lu Xingye, his eyes lit up, and he threw himself into his arms, teary-eyed. "Hubby, it hurts..." Lu Xingye stiffened. He swallowed the curse on the tip of his tongue, held the wife he had gotten for free, and awkwardly soothed him. "There, there. Don't cry." The whole class: ?????? Sorry, there was so much to take in that we were too shocked to react. * With his head messed up, Gu Xuemian faithfully followed the feudal idea that "a husband is heaven," intent on doing his duty as a wife. By day, he served tea, brought meals, and watched the teacher. At night, he helped with homework, did laundry, and warmed the bed. Every day, he chased after Lu Xingye, sweetly calling him hubby and obediently letting him kiss, hug, and lift him up high. His free wife was just too soft, so Lu Xingye quickly fell for him and spoiled him rotten. A husband is heaven? No. A wife is a fairy! Yes! Lu Xingye's friends: "? Didn't you hate men who act like women? What happened to your principles?" Lu Xingye: "But he calls me hubby, okay?/////" #In the face of a cute little wife, all principles are crap# * Later, Gu Xuemian returned to normal. Thinking back on how he'd let himself go in front of the person he loved, he felt too embarrassed to face Lu Xingye. Lu Xingye realized his little wife had been giving him the cold shoulder lately. No kisses, no hugs, and no more warming his bed at night. He couldn't even touch his little hand! Lu Xingye: (I want my wife) (screaming) (twisting) (crawling around in the dark) (growling ominously) Gu Xuemian was terribly guilty and resolved to talk things over with Lu Xingye. But Lu Xingye came to him first, crying like a tough guy. "Baby, what's wrong? Don't you love me anymore? Why don't you call me hubby now? QAQ" Gu Xuemian: "?" * A cool, aloof beauty bottom who's soft and adorable only with the top x a hot-tempered school bully top who's gentle only with the bottom One-on-one, both are each other's first and only, silly and sweet romance with a happy ending [But He Calls Me "Baby" [Book Transmigration], a sweet, silly campus romance told from the bottom's perspective↓↓↓] Gu Yanxi traveled to a parallel world every night, where he relived a certain period of his day. Gu Yanxi was delighted, because this meant he could have twice as much time as other people to study hard. He pulled out a test paper and started studying intensely, when Mu Zhuoqing suddenly offered him a packet of teddy bear cookies. The same thing had happened during the day, so Gu Yanxi didn't think much of it. Just as he was about to refuse coldly again, a line of text suddenly appeared above his head: [Gu Yanxi grabbed Mu Zhuoqing's sleeve, lifted his little red face, and coyly whined in a soft voice, "Hubby, feed me~"] Gu Yanxi: ????? The next moment, Gu Yanxi's body blushed and started calling him hubby against his will. Gu Yanxi thought he was done for and would get beaten up. But then Mu Zhuoqing, usually an expressionless iceberg, skillfully pulled him into his arms, picked up a cookie, and held it to his lips. In a gentle, low voice, he said, "Baby, open wide. Here comes the airplane." Gu Yanxi: ? Damn, is something wrong with the Mu Zhuoqing in this parallel world?! Still, I'm a cool guy. Cool guys don't eat teddy bear cookies. One second later Gu Yanxi: They're so good. Munch, munch. * Mu Zhuoqing had a secret. If he wrote a certain part of his day into a story according to his own wishes, he could enter the dream world built from that story at night and make up for the regrets of the day. But one day, Gu Yanxi gradually began looking at him strangely. Mu Zhuoqing felt incredibly guilty, suspecting that Gu Yanxi had discovered his filthy little secret. He finally resolved to confess, but accidentally overheard Gu Yanxi talking in his sleep: "Don't eat any more teddy bear cookies. I really can't fit any more, hubby..." Mu Zhuoqing: ?!?!?! * An interview with our former straight boy, Baby Yan: Gu Yanxi: "I didn't want to turn gay either, but he called me baby, so I had to call him hubby just to be polite, right? (*つ/////C)" * A soft and adorable bottom who thinks he's super cool x an outwardly expressionless iceberg but inwardly a perverted stalker top One-on-one, both are each other's first and only, sweet romance with a happy ending Theme: If you want something, you have to fight for it. Before you try, anything is possible. Never give up lightly.
