The Campus Heartthrob Keeps Making a Scene About Divorce

"Gentle Little Angel × Short-Tempered Brat"

In the second semester of his freshman year, Wen Yu, an architecture major, was assigned to move into Room 505 in the law department dormitory.

Two of his new roommates were very friendly, except for the third, Jiang Xunyan, the heartthrob of A University. Whenever Jiang Xunyan saw him, he would scowl, look annoyed, and act uncomfortable.

Wen Yu had no complaints about him. When he brought breakfast for his roommates, he brought an extra serving for Jiang Xunyan too.

Jiang Xunyan frowned and gave a disdainful huff. “There's no need to go out of your way.”

As he spoke, he messaged him: [We'll get divorced in a year anyway.]

Wen Yu acknowledged that, and the next time he brought breakfast, he left Jiang Xunyan out.

But when Jiang Xunyan saw everyone else with breakfast and none for him, he was dissatisfied again. “Are you excluding me?!”

At the same time, his fingers jabbed furiously at the chat box: [Divorce!!!]

Wen Yu kept his temper and said nothing. He decided not to do anything extra in front of Jiang Xunyan anymore, or perhaps he should find a way to move out.

Then, in an accident, Jiang Xunyan's student information form was leaked on the campus forum. His marital status was clearly listed as: Married.

With so many people pursuing Jiang Xunyan, the forum exploded overnight.

When Wen Yu heard about it, he also received a message from Jiang Xunyan.

[Don't you dare expose this! If you do, we're getting divorced!!]

Wen Yu and Jiang Xunyan seemed to have an ordinary relationship, so nobody suspected him.

When people asked, he merely played dumb with a gentle smile. “I don't know.”

But thinking about what Jiang Xunyan had said, did he really mean they'd divorce if it came out?

...No, never mind. That would be a bit too much.

So Wen Yu waited and waited, until a year had finally passed. But Jiang Xunyan never brought up getting divorced.

After some thought, Wen Yu asked him directly, “When are we going to get divorced?”

Jiang Xunyan, who alone believed the two of them were madly in love and completely devoted to each other, heard those words like a bolt from the blue.

Just last night, Wen Yu had praised him, saying he was amazing and that it felt good!

Jiang Xunyan almost leaped to his feet. Furious, he asked, “You seduce me and then abandon me? You use me and then throw me away?!”

Wen Yu said in confusion, “But that's just a marital duty. It has nothing to do with divorce.”

Jiang Xunyan clutched his chest and nearly passed out.

- A nontraditional pursuit of the wife, in a world where same-sex marriage is legal. Married first, love later; a sweet slice-of-life story.
