My Crush Finally Broke Up

Jiang Ying and Du Qingyang had been together for years. Everyone around them thought they would get married and grow old together. Jiang Ying thought so too. He took time off and picked out a ring, only to discover that Du Qingyang had picked out a ring with another girl as well. Du Qingyang claimed his family had forced him into a blind date. They had a huge fight and stopped speaking. That night, some mutual friends got them together for dinner, discreetly trying to make peace between them. Du Qingyang tried to win Jiang Ying over, piling the dishes closest to him into his bowl. “Come on, don’t be mad, baby.” Jiang Ying stayed silent, and Du Qingyang grew anxious. “At least eat something?” As they sat in tense silence, a voice came from across the table. “He can’t eat that. He’s avoiding certain foods.” The man had striking, sharply defined features and raised an eyebrow. “You didn’t know?” Du Qingyang froze. It was Chen Yun Zhi, his former college roommate and now one of his closest friends. “Why are you looking at me?” Chen Yun Zhi said coolly. “Aren’t you his boyfriend?” – Jiang Ying didn’t know Chen Yun Zhi well. Their only connection was Du Qingyang. All he knew was that Chen Yun Zhi had excellent grades but came from a troubled family, and that he was aloof, taciturn, and indifferent to everything. After breaking up with Du Qingyang, Jiang Ying began noticing that Chen Yun Zhi was showing up in his life more and more. The project team he was leading happened to land a contract with Chen Yun Zhi’s company. He went on a business trip out of town and happened to end up at the same hotel as Chen Yun Zhi. He posted on Weibo about a show he wanted to see, and Chen Yun Zhi sent him tickets. Chen Yun Zhi edged closer without a word. Before Jiang Ying knew it, he had grown used to him. By the time he realized what was happening, Chen Yun Zhi had become an airtight net, enclosing him completely. – After the breakup, Du Qingyang couldn’t stop thinking about Jiang Ying. When he could no longer contain his longing, he went to see him. The man who opened the door wore a teddy-bear apron and an oven mitt. The room was filled with the aroma of freshly baked muffins. Du Qingyang immediately spotted the fine marks along his neck and roared in fury, “Where’s Jiang Ying? How could you, ” “Keep your voice down.” Chen Yun Zhi frowned and cut him off. “He’s asleep.” 【Note】 1. A cold, restrained, devoted husband-type gong x a gentle, mature, sweet-at-heart shou 2.
