One Scumbag Deserves Another

Li Yu discovers that his boyfriend, Ji Mingze, is a scumbag. He acts like he loves Li Yu more than anyone, but in truth, he only sees him as an unsuitable stand-in.

Li Yu gives a cold laugh. "Good thing I found out early. Otherwise, if Ji Mingze discovered that I only saw him as a stand-in too, I'd be at a disadvantage if he tried to hold me accountable."

Everyone says Ji Mingze is deeply in love with Li Yu, but Ji Mingze knows it's all an act. The truth is, he doesn't love Li Yu at all.

To him, Li Yu is merely a cheap replacement for his unattainable first love. Even though he knows Li Yu would give up his life for him, he has never considered loving him. After all...

"A replacement is a replacement. It can never take the place of the real thing. If I want to, I can throw Li Yu away like garbage whenever I please." That's what Ji Mingze tells his friends.

His friends rub their hands together, eager to watch the show and see Li Yu get dumped by Ji Mingze.

They wait and wait, but the person who gets dumped isn't Li Yu. It's Ji Mingze!

Even more shocking, Ji Mingze doesn't fly into a rage after being dumped. Instead, he shows up every day, red-eyed and haggard, begging Li Yu to take him back!

His friends: ???
