Sweet and well-behaved in public but secretly offbeat × aloof in public but secretly a lovesick romantic
In short: Offbeat guy × aloof guy
1v1, happy ending
Wei Qinyang’s family moved to Binjiang City for family reasons, and Wei Qinyang transferred to Binjiang No. 1 High School. The day before school started, after awkwardly buying some snacks, he was already in a bad mood because he’d gone out without his phone and lost some money. Then, to make matters worse, he got caught in the crossfire when a group of people started fighting in the street. That was the last straw for Wei Qinyang.
He went straight at them, snacks in hand, and got into a fight with the whole group. By the time it was over, he had no idea where his snacks had gone.
Wei Qinyang: C! There goes another hundred yuan on snacks. What kind of day is this?! [-_-#]
The next day, Wei Qinyang went to school. On the first day of term, his deskmate was nowhere to be seen. His impression of his new deskmate was simple: a slob!
When he got back to the dorm, he discovered that one of his roommates was among the people he’d fought the day before. Wei Qinyang felt as if the sky had fallen. And then, as if fate were playing a joke on him, came the second day of class: good news, his deskmate had finally shown up. Bad news, it was his roommate!
Wei Qinyang: What the hell is this?! Heaven, is this how you treat people?
Heaven: I don’t know what you’re talking about.
At first, the two deskmates barely spoke. But later, they became... inseparable, or so everyone else said.
Before long, a post appeared on Binjiang No. 1 High School’s forum: #Shocking! The two school heartthrobs and top dogs at Binjiang No. 1 High School are actually a gay couple!#
In an instant, the post blew up at their school and even at the schools nearby, with the replies piling up sky-high.
Wei Qinyang was the first to respond: WTF, who started this ridiculous rumor?! Get out here!
Forum moderator: I’m scared now.
Jiang Sui, however, never responded. Before long, the whole thing quietly died down.
Then, during the second semester of their second year, the same “ridiculous rumor” started making the rounds again.
The replies piled up just as high as before:
“This rumor is hundreds of years old. How does anyone still believe it?”
“So... is it true?!”
“Why isn’t that top dog responding this time?”
“Just here for the gossip.”
But neither of the two top dogs responded. In the end, all the forum users could do was talk big online, while the people in the know confronted them to their faces:
“Why aren’t you responding?”
“Feeling guilty?!”
Wei Qinyang: ...Didn’t you already know?
