My Straight Childhood Friend Turned Gay

Qin Kai realized that the close friend he'd known for eighteen years was growing more and more distant. After secretly asking around for a long time, he finally learned that his best friend had been dating behind his back, and the other person was a man.

Qin Kai, so jealous he could puff up like a pufferfish, immediately found the "homewrecker" and punched him straight into the hospital.

Qin Kai gave the weakling, who had gone down with one punch, a disdainful middle finger. How could someone that weak protect Le'an?

Before he could even voice his warning, accusations came raining down on him and left him stunned.

Le'an was getting mad at him over some random guy?

Qin Kai's eyes went red with hurt, and for the first time in their eighteen years together, they fell into a cold war.

After drowning his sorrows in alcohol and getting drunk, Qin Kai glared with bloodshot eyes at Le'an, who had come to pick him up, and ranted, "What's so good about that weakling? Are his eyes bigger than mine? Is he taller than me? Are his legs longer than mine? Is he better-looking than me? Does he treat you better than I do? What do you even see in him?"

Jian Le'an didn't want to argue with a drunk, so he humored him with a nod. "Right, right, right. He's not as good as you in any way!"

Qin Kai's eyes lit up. He gazed at him hopefully. "Then let's stop liking him, okay? Your big brother can introduce you to a girlfriend. What kind do you like? Gentle? Pretty? Or..."

Jian Le'an fell silent for a moment, then looked him in the eye and spoke softly. "But I only like men."

Qin Kai: …

Qin Kai racked his brains trying to get his best friend back on the right track. He never expected that the more he did, the farther he seemed to push him away.

Seeing that his big brother was drowning in jealousy and heading further and further in the wrong direction, one of his underlings had no choice but to grit his teeth, step in, and offer some advice: "He likes men. Aren't you a man?"

The fog cleared. With red-rimmed eyes, Qin Kai cornered him against the wall. "I'm a man too. Would you like me?"

Excerpt:

Jian Le'an fell in love with his childhood friend. On his eighteenth birthday, he brought his friend's favorite collectible figure to confess his feelings. Unfortunately, he happened to walk in on someone else's confession. Qin Kai's furious, horrified voice struck like a bolt from the blue: "You sick pervert, stay away from me! Two men dating? That's disgusting!"
