Synopsis

[Main story complete]

Xu Chigui's world was gray and small. For a long time, He Zheng was the only bright spot in it. Without realizing it, Xu Chigui secretly followed that light, walking and walking... as if there were no end in sight.

Then one day, He Zheng left the little town.

Xu Chigui didn't go to see him off. He curled back into his shell and hid away for years.

Xu Chigui thought: Goodbye, He Zheng. Thank you for staying with me until I was sixteen. If you ever come back, I only hope...

That you'll see me, get to know me, and call me by my name.

Mature, charismatic, controlling top x timid, lonely, socially anxious bottom

Living together, turning a straight guy gay (maybe he's not that straight), one-sided crush, bittersweet romance

Content warning: The top isn't a virgin. The bottom is a crybaby who bursts into tears at the drop of a hat. If you don't like that, run now.

Theme: Be brave enough to love
