A restrained, avoidant "robot" uke x a tsundere, direct seme with a touch of princess syndrome
[Gu Yu, seme's perspective]
At the most innocent age of her life, Gu Yu fell in love with someone. That person was distant, like a flower on a mountaintop. Gu Yu had thought their mutual crush would naturally blossom into a relationship, but in the end, she was left alone with memories to savor in secret.
The person left without a word just as Gu Yu was about to confess her feelings. Gu Yu had been angry, resentful, and heartbroken... but she had never forgotten the affection etched into her bones.
Time passed, and everything changed. More than a decade later, the new neighbor brought over a housewarming gift.
"Hello? Is anyone home?"
Gu Yu opened the door. It was you.
No longer the awkward girl you had been in your youth, you had a sharp, cool air about you, yet you were still as wonderful as ever.
They said nothing. Her heart, long numb and still, pounded wildly. Gu Yu gazed into her eyes. The resentment and bitterness had long since faded with time, leaving only something pure.
You're here.
I still long for you. Do you feel the same?
From shy awkwardness to slowly finding warmth in each other.
Gu Yu was immersed in tender affection when she accidentally witnessed the woman she loved turning down someone else's confession.
She had thought their relationship would naturally fall into place, but she was standing there after someone else had failed.
Amid a sea of brilliant flowers, Gu Yu cautiously asked, "I love you. If... would you be willing?"
"I... can I say no?"
In the silence, she heard the other woman's voice fall low.
"Are you sure... it's really me that you love?"
A few days later, Gu Yu received news that Yu Zhilu was going to get engaged to someone else.
Gu Yu's heart turned to ashes.
I hate you.
Alone in the cozy home they shared, she silently chewed over her resentment.
She had thought she had met the world's most faithless woman, but it turned out that her always-composed, formidable lover was really just a helpless, clueless "stray cat."
?
"Coward!"
[Yu Zhilu, uke's perspective]
My princess, I'm so happy to see you again.
This time, I'll be a little braver.
Please believe me.
