[Big-Chest-Loving Cat Bottom × Daddy-Type Devoted Dog Top]

On his birthday, Sheng Yi discovered that his scumbag boyfriend had conned him. Drunk and teary-eyed, he slapped the guy more than a dozen times, figuring they'd never see each other again. But that very night, he ended up sharing a passionate kiss with the guy's older brother, who was never home, and the two of them shot to the top of the trending charts.

The next day, Sheng Yi woke up in the Film Emperor's bed. "?"

Hello, Film Emperor. Goodbye, Film Emperor.

He pulled up his pants and made a hasty exit, expecting the Film Emperor's company to hunt him down. Instead, the man tossed him a contract and asked him to pretend to be the Film Emperor's first love?

All lodging, costumes, and makeup covered, plus boyfriend-level care?

All the emotional support he could ask for?

And he'd get to pursue him on a dating show?

Amazing! Who knew such a good deal existed?!

When the show began, netizens were buzzing with guesses about who Chen Wansheng had come on this unlucky dating show to pursue. Then, on the first night, when they were choosing roommates...

Chen Wansheng: I want to share a room with Sheng Yi.

Every night's secret crush mailbox...

Chen Wansheng: Sweetheart, sleep well. See you tomorrow [heart]

When the other contestants tried to fish for his type...

Chen Wansheng: I like him. Isn't it obvious? Am I being too subtle? Guess I'll have to be bolder.

When the two went on a hot-spring resort date and blatantly stayed out all night...

Chen Wansheng: I was the one who held on to him and didn't want to get up. Don't blame him.

In the end, he even went head-to-head in a heated battle for love with a puppyish rival ten years younger than him.

Netizens whipped out their microscopes in a fury: We can see you showing off your feathers all the way from Siberia!

Given all the above...

Sheng Yi, cheerful version: If I didn't know better, I'd think you were actually secretly in love with me. You're such a good actor!

Chen Wansheng, secretly in love for three years version: ...

In the post-show interview, Sheng Yi was asked: What's your favorite thing about him?

Sheng Yi: His big pecs!

The show crew asked Chen Wansheng: What do you think about that?

Chen Wansheng: I'll work on my pecs.

Netizens got to feast their eyes too, and couldn't stop praising the sister-in-law's greatness.

Sheng Yi went from being his ex-boyfriend to his scumbag ex's sister-in-law. He swaggered around Chen Wansheng's home in fuzzy slippers, and happened to run into his ex returning home. He greeted him with delight: "Oh, look who's here! Our little brother! It's been ages since you came home. What goodies did you bring this time? Oh, you silly boy, how could you come home empty-handed?"

Ex-boyfriend: ...

In a nutshell: Why be afraid of being gay? You love it!

Yu Chaoyu has two rules:

1. No one younger than him.

2. No virgins.

On the day he moved into a mansion, he kindly took in the former owner's eldest son. He'd expected a sweet, pretty high school boy who'd be easy on the eyes. Instead, the kid was a homophobe who responded to kindness with force.

Yu Chaoyu had always lived life on his own terms and never indulged anyone. During their time living together, he spent every day terrified that the other guy would annoy him to death.

Zhou Xiao: Can't you take your people back to your room to do that?

Yu Chaoyu, picking his ear: No.

Zhou Xiao: But the living room is shared!

Yu Chaoyu: No, the living room is mine. If you don't like it, get out.

Zhou Xiao: Then at least bring home someone you actually like!

Yu Chaoyu gave him a cold look and said, "What's so great about that disgusting thing called love?"

Zhou Xiao had never met anyone so bizarre. Yu Chaoyu had built a company from the ground up and taken it public, and was fabulously wealthy, yet he didn't care one bit what anyone thought of him.

He called himself sharp-tongued and ruthless, but was the kindest and most principled person in the world.

The person who treated him best, apart from his parents.

After returning from the hospital, Zhou Xiao wanted to properly thank Yu Chaoyu for all he'd done. He steeled himself, resolved not to argue with him again, and pushed open the door to the fourth-floor greenhouse.

But Yu Chaoyu was standing by the pool in nothing but swim trunks, holding a pitch-black, eight-inch-long contraption covered in bumps. He looked back at Zhou Xiao. "Hey, you're already out of the hospital?"

Zhou Xiao: "..."

His pupils shook violently × N.

"Why are you standing there looking at that thing in your hand?!"

Yu Chaoyu walked toward him and glanced at what he was holding. "Just checking it out. Unless you want to take responsibility for my ass if you get hurt later?"

Zhou Xiao covered his ears and frantically backed away. "I'm warning you, don't come any closer!"

Yu Chaoyu rolled his eyes and pulled his hands down. "We're adults. Don't make a fuss over an inanimate object."

But the thought of this man using those things to fuck him in the pool... He just couldn't...

"Isn't sleeping with real people enough for you?" Yu Chaoyu pinned both his wrists against the door. Zhou Xiao's mouth suddenly felt inexplicably dry.

"What real people?" Yu Chaoyu suddenly raised his eyes and stared into his, then asked, "You?"

Zhou Xiao shuddered all over.

Some unknown blood within him seemed to bubble and awaken, trembling with trepidation...
