[The aloof childhood friend turns clingy. It's an illness, and it needs treatment!]
Guan Qianxing, who has pursued Shen Ting for many years, is dying.
At death's door, Guan Qianxing comes up with a grand plan for his life: sleep with Deng Ting!
After doing the deed, Guan Qianxing plans to "delete his account," only to discover that his aloof childhood friend is stuck inside him!!!
Clingy in a literal, physical sense!!!
Guan Qianxing roars, "Get out... Get him out of me!!!"
--
Everyone in their circle knows that the eldest young master of the Shen family, at the very top of the world of fame and fortune, is an untouchable beauty. Countless men and women want to claim him, but Shen Ting is so pure and desireless that earning a place in his favor is harder than reaching the heavens.
Even his childhood friend, the beautiful young master of the Guan family, has pursued him for decades without earning so much as a shred of pity.
People think the young master Shen must be a reincarnated Bodhi seed, untouched by worldly desires.
When a friend hears this rumor, he scoffs. "They love you openly, while you pine in secret. No wonder you're destined to be single forever!"
The most pathetic thing Shen Ting has ever done is secretly love someone for more than a decade without daring to confess.
The man replies coldly, "I'm sick. I'll scare him."
His friend falls silent for a moment, then gives him a thumbs-up. "...I think the turtle should give you its name."

Guan Qianxing has always been his cinnabar mole and moonlight.
Shen Ting hides his feelings well and acts so convincingly that he fools everyone.
But Guan Qianxing doesn't know that Shen Ting's desire for him grows more intense with every performance.

[Extra Scene]
Afterward, Shen Ting is still inside him, tears falling as he tells the person beneath him over and over, "Xingxing, you love me. You have to love me forever."
Guan Qianxing weakly raises his arm and wipes the man's tears with a tissue. "All right, all right, stop crying. You're making it seem like I forced you. If you don't want to do it, then get out!"
The man's eyes grow dark as he seals his lover's lips with a kiss. "Of course I want to. My Xingxing, mine, mine, mine."
Guan Qianxing can only laugh, thinking to himself, I really do love you.
