[A cold-faced, soft-hearted top-of-the-class type × a BKing, hot-tempered little brat who's the boss of the school]
Everyone knew Song Chao had once held onto first place in the affiliated high school's grade rankings. His grades were incredible, he got along with everyone, and he was the big shot at school.
But even Song Chao hadn't expected the old legend to be replaced so quickly. Just a few days after transferring back to the school, he'd heard the name Qin Zai from countless people.
"Qin Zai? He's a super genius, first in the grade, Teacher Hu's favorite student in physics, a treasure to the teachers and a lifesaver to the students. The principal thinks he's a shoo-in for top scorer, and he's also..."
Song Chao's mouth twitched as he cut his friend off. "Stop. I can't remember that many titles."
His friend: "..."

Song Chao had always been competitive. Once school started, he set his mind on proving himself better than Qin Zai in every way.
Grades, basketball, height, who could finish problems faster...
Qin Zai met every challenge head-on. The two were locked in fierce competition, but as it went on, Qin Zai realized Song Chao seemed to be comparing far too many things.
"Are you even comparing who gets more love letters?"
With red ears, Song Chao frantically swept all the love letters and gifts from Qin Zai's desk into his own schoolbag, grumbling, "W-who said I wanted to compare that? You're the one who attracts all the attention!"
Qin Zai: "Then what are you doing?"
Song Chao was quiet for a long moment. "Comparing who starts dating later!"
"Oh..." Qin Zai raised an eyebrow. "Then we can't compare."
Song Chao panicked and grabbed Qin Zai. "What do you mean? Are you dating someone already!?"
At the back of the noisy classroom, hidden behind a raised textbook, Qin Zai gently kissed Song Chao's flushed cheek.
"I'm eighteen now, so it's not an early romance anymore, Song Xiaochao."
Qin Zai thought he'd make him blush, but Song Chao's eyes went wide. "You kissed me first, so you lose!!!"
Qin Zai: "…"

What's it like having a spouse who has to be first in everything?
Qin Zai: It's fine. There's always something he can't be number one at.
