My Childhood Friend Isn't Straight!

● Top student beauty bottom VS loyal, top-ranked student top

● Mutual pining (I just love watching two people fall in love while they hide their feelings, try to figure out what the other is thinking, and never let their little secrets slip!)

● Wen Zechuan (top) VS Wen Zhiyi (bottom)

Wen Zhiyi has loved someone for over a decade. The problem is, he doesn't know if that person likes men.

Like an observer hidden in the dark, he keeps an eye on the other person's every move, all the while holding back his feelings.

He's terrified that if he lets the secret out, they won't even be able to stay friends.

At a gathering, he arrived late.

Just as he was about to open the private room door, he looked through its little glass window and saw the person he'd loved for all these years holding a girl's hand and saying tenderly, "I like you."

At that moment, Wen Zhiyi could almost hear his heart break.

Wen Zhiyi began avoiding his childhood friend. He stopped replying to messages and answering video calls. Even when the other person waited for him outside the school gate, he would leave through another entrance.

If he's straight, there's no point trying to change him.

That's what Wen Zhiyi thought.

After the first monthly exam of senior year, a new student suddenly transferred into their class. Wen Zhiyi had never cared much about such things, until the new student sat beside him and, after school, pinned him against a wall.

Wen Zhiyi stared at the handsome face before him, flushed red, even his eyes seeming to have turned red. Before he could say a word, he was pulled into a warm embrace!

The other boy said miserably, "Yiyi, how much longer are you going to avoid me?"

Wen Zechuan has loved someone for over a decade. The problem is, the other person seems to dislike physical contact with men.

Like a furtive investigator, he keeps testing whether the other person finds him repulsive, while never daring to go too far.

He's afraid that if he crosses the line, he might only make things worse.

To make matters worse, they used to live one floor apart, so he could drop by now and then just to make his presence known. But then he transferred to another campus, and the distance between them grew.

But! Wen Zechuan felt that not only had the distance between them grown, the other person had also stopped talking to him at some point!

Wen Zechuan did everything he could to get back by the other's side, and regretted it more and more.

Why did so many people like his Yiyi?

If he didn't make a move soon, his Yiyi would belong to someone else!

Someone gave Yiyi a love letter? He took it.

Someone gave Yiyi a present? He took that too.

Someone even confessed to Yiyi in person?

Sorry, he's mine!

At last, after yet another person handed Wen Zhiyi a love letter, Wen Zechuan finally lost it!

With no one else in the classroom, he pinned Yiyi against the wall just like he had the first day he transferred in, and kissed him fiercely!

"Yiyi, you're mine. You can only be mine!"
