On the first day Qi Yunjun returned home, he nearly had his pants pulled down. Apparently, his eldest brother, who had illegitimate children all over the place, had acknowledged yet another kid.
When they first met, Chu Xiao was getting beaten in the courtyard. The moment he saw Qi Yunjun, he rushed over and begged pitifully for help.
Unfortunately, Qi Yunjun was no kind soul.
Without changing expression, he said, "Take him farther away before you hit him."
Chu Xiao failed to get help and instead got an even worse beating. That was how he remembered Qi Yunjun's face. What he never expected was that the man was his uncle...
Now... he hated him even more!
Qi Yunjun was cold-blooded and indifferent, and hardly anyone dared offend him. So when the family learned Chu Xiao had crossed him, they immediately sent Chu Xiao over to apologize.
That night, Qi Yunjun woke up thirsty, opened his eyes, and found a face looming right over him!
Qi Yunjun: -_-
Having someone suddenly appear beside your bed in the middle of the night was practically like tap-dancing on Qi Yunjun's nerves. But just as he was about to lose his temper, Chu Xiao collapsed right on top of him.
He said, "Uncle, please save me."
The Chu family was a place that devoured people without even spitting out their bones.

Chu Xiao was an illegitimate son of the Chu family. When he first returned, he was walking on eggshells. To stay alive, he latched onto Qi Yunjun.
He knew Qi Yunjun liked well-behaved people, so he was obedient and sensible, putting all his energy into maintaining that persona every day.
What he didn't know was that he was a terrible actor.
There were so many illegitimate children in the Chu family that he was entirely expendable. When he was abandoned yet again, Chu Xiao accepted his fate and let others pin him to a gambling table and chop off his hand.
But who could have guessed that Qi Yunjun, who had never liked him, would come and rescue him?
He still remembered Qi Yunjun resting a hand on his shoulder and saying in a calm voice, "Tsk, how'd you let them bully you this badly?"
He also said, "You've played the good little boy long enough. It's time to show your claws."
That day, Chu Xiao memorized Qi Yunjun's face all over again, and fell for him.

One-on-one, both leads are each other's only partner.
Fox-like bottom x wild-wolf top.
The top bares his teeth at everyone except the bottom, because if he does, the bottom will knock his teeth out.
The bottom is 14 years older than the top. They are not related by blood, and the bottom is an adopted son of the Chu family. The bottom indulges the top, which gives the top his greatest confidence.
Theme: Never look back.
