New PUBG streamer Lu Cong once went live during a tournament and berated a professional player, saying he was worthless.

Lu Cong: "My nephew, who's only just started elementary school, plays better than you. I suggest you buy a cheat."

His comments sparked heated discussion, and Lu Cong became infamous across the internet.

A few days later, during a livestream, Lu Cong ran into that professional player in-game. Everyone waited for the drama to unfold.

Unexpectedly, the red-haired boy calmly took him out. His skills and looks both went viral, and his performance proved his critics wrong.

Lu Cong declared, "Being bad at the game is a sin. The only one in this scene I recognize is Tenet."

The top player on the Asian server was openly confessed to by name, and the CP 'Knowing the Route' appeared out of nowhere.

Until Lu Cong announced that he was in an online relationship. Supposedly, his girlfriend was a hopeless noob who could barely hold a gun.

Taking on snipers and rushing in close;

Grenades taking out his teammates;

Turning a gunfight into a costume change...

Everyone who had watched Lu Cong's streams said the relationship wouldn't last the night, but rumors claimed Lu Cong was hopelessly devoted.

Viewers: No way.

But the foul-mouthed, arrogant, hot-tempered streamer was unmoved. The corners of his tightly pressed lips seemed to curve upward.

"They're so cute."

Viewers: What happened to being bad at the game is a sin?

No one knew what Lu Cong was really thinking.

His online partner liked obedient types, so he had to act innocent.

But after spending some time together, Lu Cong gradually realized... his partner might be a man?

.

A few months later, the ZG Club announced a player transfer.

Grove, wearing a ZG jersey, won the league championship. His striking, unruly red hair drew attention, and people noticed that Lu Cong and God Shi seemed suspiciously close.

At a post-match interview, Lu Cong was asked how he had risen to prominence in such a short time.

His response was almost indifferent: "I have Tenet to thank for coaching me one-on-one."

The rumors about the two of them fell apart.

That night, back at the team base, Xue Jingshi, the player who had been named, privately sought Lu Cong out for a one-on-one lesson. Lu Cong, usually quick with his words, could only stammer.

Xue Jingshi switched to his gaming alt in front of him. "How does it feel to meet your online date in person?"

Face-to-face with his online partner, Lu Cong blushed scarlet and confessed what he really thought: "...Fuck."

He couldn't keep up the obedient act for another second.

A skilled gaming streamer, foul-mouthed and hot-tempered, bottom x A shameless flirt who talks dirty, pretends to be bad at the game behind a screen, top

Two powerhouses pretending to be someone they're not.

Yuan Song had looked after his younger boyfriend for three years, only for the other man to cheat on him.

One weekend, while trying to drown his sorrows in work, a wild-looking customer with a buzz cut walked into the shop.

No need to say more. He was just plain hot, and he hit every one of Yuan Song's aesthetic preferences, making his heart do a happy dance. Maybe a second spring was coming.

Yuan Song: "Would you like a gray cigar?"

"No," Zhou Shujing said. "Smoking cigars is bad for your health."

Yuan Song smiled. "But this is a shop that specializes in selling cigars."

Zhou Shujing nodded. "I'm looking for the owner. He's a relative of mine."

...Did people come to pick fights and claim to be relatives these days?

.

As Yuan Song and Zhou Shujing got closer, Yuan Song started making more trips to the hospital.

"My tooth has been bothering me since this morning," Yuan Song said, pretending to be sick. "Dr. Zhou, help me out."

Zhou Shujing pinched Yuan Song's cheek and examined his teeth with great professionalism, but the look in his eyes seemed a little off.

"It's not convenient right now. Come to my place tonight and I'll take a look."

Later, his ex suddenly regretted the breakup and came back, begging to get back together at Yuan Song's door.

But Yuan Song had long since decided he wanted nothing to do with his ex, not even with his ex's mother, father, or siblings.

Then his ex saw Zhou Shujing and said the first thing that came to mind: "Big brother?"

Yuan Song: Don't act so familiar! /despairingly lights a cigarette.jpg

.

After that, Boss Yuan went away on a business trip. Not only could Zhou Shujing not see him, Yuan Song also went completely off the grid.

Zhou Shujing booked the earliest flight and chased him to another city.

When Zhou Shujing finally caught up with him, the first thing he said was, "Open your mouth."

Yuan Song was still grappling with the complicated feelings that came from liking his ex's older brother, when Zhou Shujing had already taken the lollipop out of his mouth.

"Don't eat too much candy. It's bad for your teeth." Zhou Shujing kissed him. "Can you stop avoiding me now, Boss Yuan?"

Yuan Song closed his eyes and thought: This is so good.
