Blazing Summer [Entertainment Industry]

Guiding lover x pessimist, a sharp-tongued, soft-hearted, detail-oriented and secretly sensitive receiver who doesn't realize he is in love x a wild, sincere, passionate, love-struck pursuer

1. Cheng Lie got drunk and went on a rampage, biting Xia Chang on the collarbone. The next morning, he had forgotten everything, and unfortunately noticed the red mark on Xia Chang's collarbone.

Cheng Lie spent ages guessing what had happened, until he was nearly drowning in jealousy. Finally, he couldn't take it anymore and cornered him at the door. “Teacher Xia, are you seeing someone?”

Xia Chang held back a laugh. “Why would you think I'm seeing someone?”

Color slowly crept up Cheng Lie's neck. He coughed awkwardly and looked away. “The red mark on your collarbone...”

Xia Chang said, “Take a guess. You know him.”

Cheng Lie guessed everyone from north to south, practically naming the entire cast and crew, but still got it wrong. Then Xia Chang said, “When you took attendance in class, did you leave yourself off the list?”

2. Xia Chang is a pessimist. He knows Cheng Lie likes him, but thinks Cheng Lie is too good for him. Afraid of losing him, he pulls away.

Cheng Lie said, “You think we'll eventually break up, but you can't accept that, so you've decided we shouldn't get together in the first place. Is that it?”

Xia Chang said, “Yes.”

Cheng Lie said, “So you're telling me all this today not because you want to be with me, but because you want to push me away.”

Xia Chang said, “Yes.”

Cheng Lie frowned. “Why are you pushing me away? You clearly like me, and you know I like you. Why can't we give it a try? You sentenced me to death over an unfounded fear. Isn't that too unfair to me?”

3. When they first got together, Xia Chang lowered his eyelashes and said slowly, “It's just... I might not be as good as you think. I've... never been in a relationship before, so I might not know how to love someone. I might not do a very good job...”

Cheng Lie leaned in and kissed him on the eye. Tightening his arms around him, he said, “I don't think I've told you this, baby, but you're already very good at loving someone.”

4. After they'd been together for a while, Xia Chang was completely melted by love. If you asked why, it was probably because Cheng Lie would pull him out from under the covers in the morning, kiss his forehead, and laugh, “Baby, if you burrow any farther in, you'll suffocate.”

They dote on and heal each other. Both are each other's first and only love. One-on-one romance, happy ending.

Theme: Love takes courage.
