#Who Used My Photo to Catfish Someone Online? Great Job.

In his first year of high school, Wen Shixu was brought back to the Wen family as their true son.

But his biological parents were always too busy with work to pay attention to him, while the fake young master was wary of him. Even at school, he was ostracized despite having done nothing wrong.

So, utterly lonely, Wen Shixu started an online romance.

The person on the other end barely paid him any attention and never even told him their name. Wen Shixu was always the one clinging to them.

But when Wen Shixu confessed, they said yes.

Whatever the circumstances, Wen Shixu felt he had come out ahead. His boyfriend was handsome, never pried into his personal life, and sometimes even comforted him.

On the eve of the new school year, Wen Shixu decided to meet his online sweetheart.

But his online sweetheart suddenly stopped replying to his messages, and Wen Shixu figured he had probably been dumped through the silent treatment.

Until one afternoon, when Wen Shixu saw his online boyfriend at a cafe...

In the third year after being brought home as an illegitimate son, Song Wenxi met someone at a cafe who claimed to be his online sweetheart.

"It's me, I'm Wen Shixu, your online sweetheart." The person in front of him smiled gently.

Song Wenxi's heart skipped a beat, and his breathing turned ragged. When he saw the chat on the screen the other person showed him, he immediately realized what was going on.

"Oh, right. I didn't recognize you." He pressed a hand to his pounding heart and lied.

Wen Shixu quietly complained about how cold Song Wenxi had been to him these past few days, sadly saying he'd thought he was being dumped through the silent treatment.

A calculating glint passed through Song Wenxi's eyes. He took Wen Shixu's hand and played along. "My account suddenly got hacked. This is my new one. Once you add me, block the old account."

And just like that, he became Wen Shixu's "online sweetheart". He started dating Wen Shixu and did everything Wen Shixu's online "boyfriend" had promised him he would.

One ordinary afternoon, a new WeChat account suddenly added Wen Shixu.

[Wen Shixu, why did you delete me? I'm your online boyfriend!]

Wen Shixu: ?

#This has to be a lie.

A few thoughts:

1. Both are virgins, 1v1, happy ending. The story needs a senior-year high school setting, but everyone is of age.

2. The seme falls in love at first sight. The online sweetheart is using the seme's photos.

3. Two hard-luck babies fall for each other and save each other.

4. All the stumbling and fumbling is part of the fun. There's a family-regret arc.

5. The premise has been screenshotted and saved. Written on 2024.8.12.

6. This is an everyday-life story with a slower pace. Things will be gradually set up at first, then the pace will pick up once that's done.

Preorder: How Come the Human I Raised Doesn't Make a Sound?

Blurb: Liu Yi is a tabby cat. While it was a stray, it found a human.

Seeing the human's pitiful expression, Liu Yi's heart softened. It climbed into his arms, and went home with him to a small rental apartment.

But little by little, it realized something was wrong.

The neighborhood kittens said that the humans they raised made all sorts of sounds every day, calling their names in all kinds of ways.

But...

Liu Yi looked at the person beside it, sitting quietly and watching TV. How come the human it raised didn't make a sound?

Because he could barely hear, and had no one around him to talk to, Shen Zhiyu gradually stopped speaking much.

Lonely, he found a cat at the entrance to an alley and took it home. Having the cat for company did help him relax.

But one upsetting thing after another happened, and Shen Zhiyu's depression worsened. That night, after writing a suicide note and arranging for someone to take care of his cat, he took a knife into the bathroom.

Just as he had finished running the bath,

the door was kicked open, and a beautiful young man with snow-white skin and no clothes on rushed in and clung to his leg.

Then, in a voice loud enough for even him to hear, the young man cried out, "Human! Don't send me away!"

Liu Yi was truly terrified. It was wondering why the human had taken a knife into the bathroom when it suddenly spotted the suicide note on the desk.

Desperate, it howled and clawed at the bathroom door, but there wasn't a sound from inside.

In its despair, it grew the four limbs only humans had...
