That year, Pei Xianyu had just been brought into the Xing family. Faced with an unfamiliar place and unfamiliar people, he refused the unexpected gift.
So Xing Huaizhen thought he hated him.
That year, he was a sophomore in college. After Xing Huaizhen drunkenly kissed him, he didn't dare accept it. With a teasing look, the other man pushed him onto the bed and said, "You like me too, don't you, little brother?"
So Pei Xianyu ran away, his body covered in kiss marks.
That year, his father had just called him back from out of town. Xing Huaizhen met him at the airport, and he tried to avoid him. But this time, he couldn't escape. Xing Huaizhen held a knife to his neck and forced him to say he loved him.
So naturally, he didn't know that Xing Huaizhen was protecting him.
That was also the year Xing Huaizhen first realized he couldn't keep him. As Pei Xianyu wheeled his suitcase toward the boarding gate, Xing Huaizhen, more panicked and disheveled than he had ever been in his life, shoved a ring into his hand.
So Xing Huaizhen ran away, and Pei Xianyu left. That year, he thought his older brother would never come home again.
So Pei Xianyu crossed mountains and rivers to tell him he loved him.
Note:
1. There's nothing particularly original about this. I wrote it mainly to practice writing steamy scenes, and to add a character relationship thread to another story.
2. A conventional younger man/older man romance: flirty, devoted puppy gong × abstinent, tsundere shou.
3. Fake incest, mutual firsts, imprisonment, and various play scenarios. Content warning, though of course Jinjiang won't allow the explicit scenes in the main text.
4. I originally just wanted to write a devoted puppy gong, but as I kept writing, I realized this guy loves saying lewd things and teasing his older brother until he curses at him...
5. The blurb is a little unhinged. Don't take it seriously.
6. I used to really dislike journalism because many unscrupulous journalists left me with an extremely bad impression. But as I gradually learned more, I realized that many moving stories also came from them. So I thought I should set the record straight for those among them who have integrity, courage, and professionalism.
