The Mute
When Ning Ji heard that the East Street thugs were going to cause trouble for Xuan Xiao, he didn't hesitate. He went straight to them first and punched them until they were all crawling on the ground.
When he turned around, covered in mud and blood, a figure bearing light pierced the gloomy, cramped alley.
Looking at Xuan Xiao standing in the light, Ning Ji's mind went blank.
Damn it, this was the first time he had appeared in front of him, and he had to be seen like this.

Ning Ji had liked Xuan Xiao for a long time.
He liked Xuan Xiao's handsome, refined features, his spirited manner, and everything about him that Ning Ji could see.
But he never dared appear in front of Xuan Xiao.
Because he was a mute who could neither hear nor speak, a thug who had clawed his way through the gutter, a handful of filthy mud unworthy of the shining stars.

Until one day, the light he had yearned for shone into his dark world. Standing before him, covered in mud, Xuan Xiao asked in fluent sign language:
"The sunset after school is beautiful. Would you like to watch it with me?"
#Gloomy, rough-around-the-edges mute bottom x green-tea campus heartthrob top#
A mutual-healing romance, HE.
The bottom became deaf and mute later in life, and can be cured.
