Who Taught You to Be a Brother Like That?

Sheng Zhili x Lin Zhang

Gentle, sophisticated celebrity beauty, the bottom x unruly, domineering Hong Kong entertainment heir, the top

Clingy, docile cat x rebellious dog

Straight man x straight man

One realizes it later x one realizes it first

Sheng Zhili and Lin Zhang have known each other for ten years. Sheng went from an obscure, blacklisted actor to a superstar at the very top of the industry. Everyone knows Lin Zhang helped him rise, but no one suspects that there is anything improper between them.

The entire Hong Kong social circle knows that Sheng Zhili and the heir to the top-tier Lin family have been friends for ten years, and that their relationship is purer than a blank sheet of paper.

While other people avoid each other in public so thoroughly they might as well be separated by two oceans, Lin Zhang and Sheng Zhili put their arms around each other's waists and press their faces together, not caring at all when cameras are shoved in their faces.

A paparazzo breaks the story: #ShengZhiliSpendsNightWithFinanceTycoon,SeenKissingInLuxuryCar,MayHaveBeenKept

Young Master Lin reposts it with a comment: "Yes, Shengsheng is my wife."

Fans: If you can't dig up anything, stop digging. Why report something everyone already knows?

Paparazzo (eyes shaking, looking over the photos again and again): "What the hell? Do all you brothers act like this?"

Sheng Zhili and Lin Zhang are close enough to share pants and sleep in the same bed.

Fan A: If those two are more than friends, I'll eat a steel bar.

Fan B: They're obviously straight. What gay man puts his arm around another man's waist in public?

Sheng Zhili had never imagined that he and Lin Zhang might have anything beyond brotherly affection either. Then, as luck would have it, something unexpected happened.

At a party, Sheng Zhili drank something that had been tampered with and was cornered by reporters at a hotel.

The young man's face was flushed, his eyes misty with tears.

Lin Zhang: "I'll help you."

Sheng Zhili agreed in a daze. The next day, the room was a complete mess.

Lin Zhang looked awkward.

Sheng Zhili (waving a hand): "It's fine! Good friends help each other out. I'll treat you to dinner later."

Sheng Zhili signed on for a livestreamed dating show, where he was supposed to play up a couple pairing with an award-winning actor to promote their new drama.

The show became a huge hit, drawing enormous attention. People went wild over Sheng Zhili's interactions with the actor, and his fans cheered that their Shengsheng had finally found love.

On the final night, the guests were set to choose their mutual crushes, and a million viewers were waiting for the most dramatic moment.

But Sheng Zhili's individual livestream forgot to turn off its camera.

In the room,

A man pinned the beautiful, bewildered celebrity against the wall, gritting his teeth in anger. "Sheng Zhili, just try choosing him!"

The beauty looked confused. "Why..."

Lin Zhang gripped his chin and kissed him hard. "Because I'm fucking in love with you."
