Cheerful, sunny, straight guy bottom Xiang Yi VS refined, cool, top-of-the-class, ultra-dominant top Zhao Songyan
To clear up a misunderstanding, Zhao Songyan reluctantly confessed his feelings to Xiang Yi. He never expected Xiang Yi to return them, since Xiang Yi was straight.
Xiang Yi had always thought of himself as a bona fide straight guy, until he saw Zhao Songyan's repressed, despairing figure walking away. Only then did he realize that this person had long since taken root in his heart.
Xiang Yi knew that if he let Zhao Songyan leave now, he would never come back.
On instinct, Xiang Yi grabbed Zhao Songyan's hand and pleaded, "Bro, don't go. I like you."
Xiang Yi and Zhao Songyan had been childhood friends, but they had never seen eye to eye, even as kids.
Xiang Yi was naturally lively and restless, while Zhao Songyan was refined and quiet.
Xiang Yi thought Zhao Songyan was putting on airs and pretending to be proper, while Zhao Songyan thought Xiang Yi was loud enough to give anyone a headache.
But their families were so close that the two of them were constantly thrown together to play.
Xiang Yi had a sharp tongue and loved to gossip. He was always teasing Zhao Songyan, and could do anything from acting cute to playing coy. Every day, he would dance wildly on the edge of death, until Zhao Songyan finally lost patience and pinned him down for a thorough beating.
Xiang Yi never lost an argument, but he had never won a fight.
Still, this guy was bad at it but loved to play. Getting beaten up today didn't stop him from coming back tomorrow.
He was having the time of his life and never got tired of it.
The famous writer Lu Xun once said, "No zuo, no die. Why you try?"
Xiang Yi might never understand, even on his deathbed, how a perfectly straight guy like him had somehow managed to make himself into a bottom...
So childhood friends should only meet at noon, because sooner or later, one of them will end up bent.
Bonus Scene: Secret Crush or Open Crush?
Xiang Yi fell for a girl in the class next door and went to Zhao Songyan for help. "Bro, what should I do?"
Zhao Songyan flipped through his book and replied carelessly, "I don't know."
Xiang Yi pouted, dissatisfied. "Have you never liked anyone? How come you don't have any tricks up your sleeve?"
"Well..." Zhao Songyan answered hesitantly.
Seeing his expression, Xiang Yi suddenly grew interested. "You've got someone you like, don't you? Don't you?"
Zhao Songyan was silent for a long while, then softly replied, "I do."
A gossipy gleam lit up Xiang Yi's eyes, and he pressed eagerly, "Who is it? Does she know? Have you told her?"
Zhao Songyan stared into Xiang Yi's eyes for a moment, then shook his head. "He doesn't know."
Xiang Yi looked astonished. "Holy crap, seriously? With a face like yours, you're secretly crushing on someone?!"
Bonus Scene: Bad at It, But Addicted~
Fresh out of an escape room, Xiang Yi clung shakily to Zhao Songyan's shoulder, groaning weakly. "That was freaking terrifying. Never going back, never going back..."
Zhao Songyan shook the flyer and pointed at the slogan, asking with disdain, "Can you read? Do you know what 'mildly scary' means?"
Xiang Yi snatched the flyer, tore it up, and casually tossed it into a roadside trash can. "Where does it say 'mildly scary'? I didn't see that."
Zhao Songyan shook his head, too lazy to argue with him.
Three seconds later, Xiang Yi excitedly grabbed Zhao Songyan's arm, eyes shining as he pointed at a little building nearby. "Bro! Bro! Let's go try that one!"
Zhao Songyan followed the direction of Xiang Yi's finger and saw two gloomy characters on the sign: Haunted House.
The two of them were trapped by a "ghost" in a cramped wardrobe, their noses almost touching.
Xiang Yi was trembling with fear, while Zhao Songyan could hear nothing but his own heart pounding like a drum...
