Wen Shu is a famous beauty in the dance department at A University. He casually ties up his long hair, and has a slender waist, long legs, fair skin, and eyes so beautiful they look like a work of art. He has no idea how many straight men he's turned gay.

Lu Yanqing is a genius in the finance department, with the words "abstinent" written all over him. Thanks to his dominant aura, countless male students have confessed to him. He once declared in public that he was straight.

At the start of their sophomore year, Wen Shu had to move into Lu Yanqing's dorm. Lu Yanqing had heard all about the dance department's beauty, so on the first day, he asked, "I've heard of you. The art department's resident heartbreaker. So, are you..."

Wen Shu had a sudden flash of inspiration. Wanting to get along with his new roommate, he lied through his teeth: "Straight."

Having never been straight himself, Wen Shu had no idea how straight men were supposed to act, so he watched and learned from his roommate. In the end, he reached one conclusion: straight men have no sense of boundaries.

Seeing how straightforward his roommate was, Wen Shu became even more convinced that this was just how straight men behaved with each other. So he followed suit, though to outsiders, their behavior looked downright weird.

After class, Lu Yanqing crossed half the campus to pick Wen Shu up, bringing him some piping-hot chestnuts roasted in sugar.

When Lu Yanqing had finance class, Wen Shu couldn't understand a thing, but sat beside him anyway, fighting off sleep to keep him company.

When Wen Shu practiced dancing, Lu Yanqing read nearby and even booked a massage at a wellness center for him.

When Lu Yanqing went to the gym, Wen Shu didn't work out, but sat on his back and became his personal trainer.

Someone asked Wen Shu, "Are you two dating?"

Wen Shu denied it righteously: "How could we be? I'm straight, and so is my bro. This is how straight guys act!"

Lu Yanqing beside him: "Mm."

Still, sometimes Wen Shu wanted to say that straight guys were really scary QAQ.

The first time Lu Yanqing saw Wen Shu dance was at the freshman welcome party. The dancer on stage had his hair in a low ponytail, his supple body moving to the music. Lu Yanqing stood below the stage, momentarily lost in a daze.

When the dance ended, he keenly spotted a rose tattoo on the back of the dancer's neck.

He asked a friend, "Who was that dancer just now?"

His friend replied, "Wen Shu. You don't know him? He's the dance department's belle, and he's gorgeous."

Wen Shu.

"Wen Shu."

The person in his arms burrowed farther under the covers and mumbled sleepily that he'd get up in five more minutes.

Lu Yanqing watched him and gently kissed his forehead.

He would never tell him that every time they had met was carefully orchestrated by him.

[Hey! Look here!]

1. This is a getting-back-into-writing story, or more accurately, a let-loose-and-have-fun story. No logic, no plot, no writing skill. It's extremely cheesy, and anything could happen. The slow burn is insanely long, and it's basically just the two of them going back and forth. I'm writing purely to indulge my own tastes. Real life is beating me to death already, so what's wrong with writing something fun for myself?

2. Both are inexperienced, it's each other's first love, older-top-younger-bottom, one-on-one, happy ending. This couple is the best, and I will never break them up or switch their roles. They absolutely adore each other!!! I'm waving their flag!

3. A scheming, aloof, playboy top who's actually a bad dog x a clueless, naturally flirtatious, adorable beauty bottom. So later you might think, "Huh? What's with this top's character...?" Don't worry, he's normal. He was just putting on an act at first. After all, acting thirsty the first time you meet someone would be weird no matter how you look at it.

4. Comments are open everywhere. Come join the fun! More comments, please. I live on comments, so interact with me. I don't bite QAQ.

5. I hope you have fun reading! (If you aren't enjoying it, feel free to confidently click away at the top left. If you leave a nasty comment before going, I'll pretend not to see it and play dead orz.)

The next story, "My Ex Says I Cheated and Dumped Him After I Lost My Memory," is looking for favorites!

After a car accident leaves Chi Yi with partial memory loss and no sense of taste or smell, he meets a man one day.

He discovers that he can smell the faint sandalwood scent on the man, and that spending time with him slowly restores his sense of taste and smell. So he gathers his courage and asks for the man's WeChat.

Then he learns that the man is his ex-boyfriend, the very ex he "cheated on and dumped."

Chi Yi: c( O.O )ɔ

Good heavens, what did he do before he lost his memory?!

His guilt reaches its peak when his ex says he can try to help him recover. Like two good buddies, he throws an arm around Pei Huaiyan's shoulder and tells him through tears and a runny nose:

"You're such a good person. If there's ever anything you need help with, just tell me. I'll help however I can."

Pei Huaiyan looks at him, lowering his eyes to hide his emotions. "I do have a little problem lately..."

The little problem is skin hunger, brought on by the sudden way Chi Yi broke up with him.

Chi Yi slaps his thigh. Well, then, what's there to discuss? Pei Huaiyan is willing to help him despite everything, so what's wrong with letting him hold him?

Hug him! Touch him! Wear the cute underwear he wants to see! Put on the thigh garters he likes! If he's angry and won't say why, no problem, Chi Yi can smell it and soothe him!

As for how to soothe him...

Chi Yi thinks of the red rope from last night, the tie soaked with tears over his eyes, the uncontrollable sobbing, the slight trembling of his body, and the man's low, husky voice.

"Honey, don't move. Be good."

One day, Chi Yi stumbles across a hidden passage in the house.

Curious, he slowly makes his way down it and comes to a door.

It isn't locked. He assumes that a room hidden away like this must contain valuables, and wonders why Pei Huaiyan didn't lock it.

But when he opens the door, he finds a warmly decorated bedroom, complete with cameras, handcuffs, listening devices, and an entire wall of little toys.

Looking at all this, Chi Yi suddenly feels a tightness in his chest. He thinks he might know why he broke up with him...

He hurriedly turns to run, only to find Pei Huaiyan standing in the doorway. His expression is no different from usual as he reaches out to him.

"Baby, come here."
