Can Cool Guys Have Secret Crushes, Too?

[Next up: the historical danmei novel The Prince’s Consort Writes His Way to Wealth]

Yu Guang was the envy of everyone who knew him. He had a wealthy family and excellent grades, and whenever he wanted something, someone was always ready to put it in his hands.

Then one day, he accidentally stumbled into a confession. A boy’s cool voice took him by surprise and found its way into his heart, planting a seed in the heart he’d spent years letting drift aimlessly from one pleasure to another.

Later, he heard from a friend that the boy was called Han Qizhe, the top student at No. 1 High School, who had won countless awards since childhood.

Yu Guang looked at his own grades. From that day on, he stopped gaming all night and began studying harder than ever before.

After that, his daily routine became tutoring, solving problems, memorizing textbooks, memorizing textbooks, practicing problems, and tutoring.

When he finally got to sit behind Han Qizhe, he was so excited that he spilled his drink all over him.

The boy’s gaze was cool as he stared at Yu Guang and said flatly, “Wipe it clean.”

Yu Guang got so flustered he nearly stammered. “W-with my mouth?”

Han Qizhe’s eyes darkened.

Later, while playing Truth or Dare with friends, Yu Guang went up to Han Qizhe and confessed. He expected to be rejected, but the man leaned close, held the back of his head, and murmured, “Who was it that clung to me last night, crying and calling me hubby?”

Yu Guang stiffened. He hadn’t realized that the person from last night had been Han Qizhe. His breath caught, and then his face turned completely red.

Reading guide: The romance begins when both leads are adults. The bottom has a crush on the top. Both are each other’s first and only, one-on-one pairing. The style is somewhat old-school, set in an alternate modern world where same-sex marriage is legal.

A restrained, increasingly twisted wealthy top and academic ace × a cool bottom who doesn’t care about studying at first, but falls for the top at first sight and starts working hard

Blurb for the next book:

Online fiction superstar Yu Nian transmigrates into the body of an unloved legitimate son in the Minister’s household, where his father sends him to marry the Prince of Qin as a good-luck bride. The prince’s manor is in ruins, and her husband in name is paralyzed in bed.

Everyone sighs in pity, convinced that the beautiful young man will soon wither and die.

In reality, Yu Nian doesn’t cry or complain. He picks up his brush and starts writing. His novel The Husband’s Little Restaurant makes a whole string of restaurants famous, with dishes so delicious that readers can practically taste them.

His novel The Scholar from a Humble Family lays bare the hardships faced by students from poor backgrounds. Aspiring scholars from humble families are all inspired to work harder, and they weep as they shower him with rewards.

Later, he writes a groveling romance about winning back a lover, leaving countless young ladies and young men crying night after night as they see through the true nature of scumbag men.

After that, his transmigration, rebirth, and cultivation novels open the eyes of the people of the Southern Dynasty and become an enormous hit, spreading across the country.

Only then does he discover that his supposedly immobile husband can not only move, but can carry him around the manor three times with one arm without even getting out of breath.

A handsome prince who appears destitute but is actually richer than the country, and only pretends to be disabled × a beautiful man from the modern world who is an online fiction superstar

That’s as good as the blurb is going to get. There will be some stories within the story in the novel itself, but not too many. I used to love this kind of story and couldn’t find anything else like it, so I decided to write my own. I’ll start writing it soon.

Theme: There’s fun to be found everywhere in life
