When young master Chang Huai transferred schools in his second year of high school, he said goodbye to the northern villa where he had lived for more than a decade and moved into an old building on South Island.
The landlord's son was about his age and had a handsome face, but he had dropped out of school and stayed home, living off others and waiting to die. In short, he was a delinquent.
The delinquent acted like he was better than everyone, rarely spoke, and was mean.
Chang Huai hadn't even had a chance to throw one of his young master's tantrums before the delinquent's whole routine of perming his hair, drinking, smoking, and fighting left him stunned.
He figured it was best to stay out of the delinquent's way, but the landlord asked him to persuade the boy to go back to school. Since he was living under someone else's roof, he couldn't refuse, so he accepted the heavy responsibility with tears in his eyes.
Young master, smiling ingratiatingly: Bro, how about going back to school? orz
Delinquent: Carrying bricks pays 250 a day.
Young master: Get your high school diploma, and a million a year is within reach.
Delinquent: Keep dreaming.
Chang Huai couldn't take it anymore. He decided to get up every morning and drag the boy to school, but the delinquent would do anything to skip class, leaving early and coming home late every day.
It was half past eleven at night when the delinquent finally strolled slowly through the door.
Young master: Where were you?
Delinquent: Carrying bricks.
Chang Huai was so furious he moved into the delinquent's room to sleep. First he slept on the floor, then in the bed, sharing it with him night after night. He practically glued himself to the delinquent, but still couldn't catch him in the act.
Young master, clinging to his leg and weeping bitterly: Bro, please, just go back to school!!!
Delinquent: No.
Chang Huai's free time was a complete mess, but he thrived at school, until midterms came around and the elusive top student in the school, who sat behind him, finally showed his face.
Young master: ?
Delinquent: .
The delinquent was a genius. Why would he need the young master to stay by his side and persuade him to study? Chang Huai angrily picked up his bedding and prepared to move back into his own room.
But just then, the delinquent caught hold of the corner of his blanket.
Delinquent: Don't go. Sleep here and help me study.
Young master: ?
A delinquent who's cold on the outside and shameless on the inside, the top, x a young master who's warm on the outside and cold on the inside, the bottom.
"You were the sea I happened upon when I fled the north."
