Why Is My Ex-Boyfriend's Brother Like This?

Bai Jianwei is the campus heartthrob at a prestigious university, with outstanding grades and countless awards.

But because he comes from a poor family and is beautiful, he'll take money to play the boyfriend or lover of rich heirs, helping them deal with their romantic entanglements or appease their elders.

After entering and leaving wealthy households many times, Bai Jianwei has learned to behave with poise and never feels out of place.

Yet he can't help feeling nervous whenever he sees Lu Ling.

At a young age, Lu Ling took charge of a powerful enterprise and became a legend in their circle.

But he has an extreme, almost obsessive aversion to anything he considers unclean.

The first time they meet, his gaze settles heavily on Bai Jianwei. Cold and barely restraining his disgust, he asks, "You're my younger brother's new boyfriend?"

Bai Jianwei assumes he'll be thrown out immediately.

But Lu Ling's Adam's apple bobs slightly, and in the end, he says, "If that's the case, then you should listen to me, too."

Bai Jianwei: ?

Bai Jianwei is intimidated and confused.

From then on, he's forbidden from going out alone late at night.

He's not allowed any intimate contact with his other clients.

All in the name of family harmony...

At a party, Bai Jianwei finally finds a chance to announce, in a roundabout way, that he's "broken up."

All his clients pop champagne to celebrate, surrounding him like a swarm of admirers.

But his announcement provokes Lu Ling, who came there for him. Lu Ling angrily grabs him. "Looking for a new boyfriend to play with again?"

"Why not play with me instead?"

No one could have imagined that Lu Ling, whose aversion to anything unclean was so extreme that he couldn't stand being near anyone with improper manners, would abandon his principles for someone else.

Until the day he saw Bai Jianwei come to his house.

Bai Jianwei stood there, delicate and lovely, with what looked like a faint red mark still on his neck.

Suddenly, all Lu Ling's strict rules became a form of self-torment.

All that remained was a desire that drove him mad in the dead of night.
