The adults in both families think it's just a joke, but when Xiao Ke grows up, he learns that boys can't be anyone's wife. * In their senior year of high school, a boy in their class can't hold back any longer and says he's going to confess to Ye Cheng. When Xiao Ke hears the news, he panics and decides to get there first. Under a sky full of fireworks, Xiao Ke lowers his eyes. "Orange, there's something I need to tell you." Ye Cheng smiles. "Why so serious? You sound like you're about to confess." After gazing at each other for a long time, Ye Cheng's smile fades. He says uncertainly, "You don't... really mean that, do you? But I don't like boys." Xiao Ke, who hasn't even had the chance to confess: "..." He can only force himself to make something up. "I'm not confessing. I think I have touch starvation." Ye Cheng: "?" Xiao Ke looks up. "Can I hug you?" Ye Cheng: "But you already hug me all the time." Xiao Ke: "I want the kind where I squeeze you tighter." * Later, the two of them get into the same university. At 190 centimeters tall, with broad shoulders and long legs, Xiao Ke is a walking hormone bomb, adored by men and women alike. On his first day, he is crowned Huaqing University's campus heartthrob. He is endlessly pestered by admirers. He turns to Ye Cheng. "Childhood friend, could you pretend to be my boyfriend?" * As Xiao Ke's best friend, Ye Cheng agrees without a second thought. They hold hands and hug in front of other people, and sleep in the same bed... Kiss?!!! Everything is just like before, yet Ye Cheng realizes something is wrong with him. Because he's reacting to Xiao Ke in ways he shouldn't. Whenever Xiao Ke hugs him, their skin touches, and Ye Cheng's face turns redder and redder. Late at night, he opens a forum and posts for help: [Sob, what do I do if I've fallen for my bro? Help, online now!!] He posts about his interactions with Xiao Ke.

Following the rules, he stops Feng Ye, an Alpha who has done everything high schoolers shouldn't do except date. He takes out his pen and asks coolly, "Name and class."
