*Chapter comments are now open.

Reading notes (be sure to read)

1. Updates daily between 2 and 6 p.m. (though sometimes at other times).

2. The top once helped the bottom, and the bottom has a crush on the top.

3. Song is the bottom; Chen is the top.

4. This is just a story the author is using to practice writing. Don't expect literary brilliance.

Synopsis

Song Shi'an has a crush on his roommate, but doesn't dare make the first move.

Then one day, he suddenly notices that his roommate, who rarely comes back to the dorm, has been returning every day lately and talking to him nonstop. As an introvert, this terrifies him.

So he never dares say much, and when he does speak, he keeps it brief.

But for some reason, his roommate gradually starts changing clothes in front of him, either deliberately or by chance. After showering, he even comes out wearing nothing but his pants, towel-drying his hair, leaving Song Shi'an blushing bright red.

Then one day, he accompanies his roommate, who's taken the day off, to buy medicine. Someone asks for his contact information, and Song Shi'an realizes that something seems a little off about his roommate.

Song Shi'an: "Why are you so nervous when someone asks for my WeChat?"

Chen Qingxu leans in slightly, his eyes smiling as he says helplessly, "I can't just stand by and watch the person I like become someone else's boyfriend, can I?"

Coming soon: "Training a Pet"

*The plot is completely made up, total nonsense with no substance whatsoever.

Synopsis

During the Shunhe era, Emperor Jingde is obsessed with beauty and utterly incompetent, allowing power to slip from his grasp.

After a victory on the northern frontier, Prince Ning'an returns in triumph. The Nine-Thousand-Year-Old himself personally hosts a welcome banquet for him, making quite a show of it. Anyone who hears about it can't help but envy him.

After all, he's won the favor of the Lord of a Thousand Years. Who knows what kind of lavish reward he'll receive?

At that moment, in a room at the Lord of a Thousand Years' residence, the lights flicker on and off. One person lies on the bed, while another kneels halfway on the floor, massaging the first person's... feet.

"Tell me, what reward do you want from me?" Nan Cifeng's phoenix eyes droop as he looks down at him with an ambiguous smile.

"I ask for nothing, Your Excellency. I only want your heart." Lu Jinan gazes at the person before him, his dark eyes giving nothing away.

"Xingzhou, how greedy of you to want to steal my heart." The beauty on the bed doesn't take offense at such bold, disrespectful words. Instead, he smiles with evident delight.

Those beautiful phoenix eyes are now full of laughter, dazzling enough to make Lu Jinan's gaze waver.

"But what can I do? I simply favor you, Prince Ning'an."

*Content warnings

1. The bottom is unhinged and is a real eunuch. He won't stop until he gets what he wants. Read with caution if this is a dealbreaker.

2. The bottom dotes on the top, and the top personally handles everything concerning the bottom.

Theme: Keep striving to live happily.
