Why Don't You Try Having Another Crush?

"How a clingy ice prince gradually evolves into a brooding puppy"

Rivals x Amnesia x Reborn x Secret crush turns into open love

After a sudden breakup, he witnesses his boyfriend die in a car accident after the college entrance exams.

Pei Xingyan kneels before the body, overcome with grief and remorse... If he gets another life, he'll protect him properly.

Xie Chuan can't figure it out. Why has his cold, sour-faced rival, who used to oppose him at every turn, suddenly changed his ways? Now he sticks to him every day and keeps giving him lovesick looks!

It's unbearable. He just can't take it.

The rivalry is one-sided.

Xie Chuan: He stares at me all the time. He's provoking me.

Pei Xingyan: He's so cute. I'll sneak a couple more looks.

Xie Chuan: He enforces the rules every day and trips me up at every turn!

Pei Xingyan: I can't let him get hurt in a fight. I have to keep a close eye on him~

After losing his memories, his attitude changes completely:

Pei Xingyan: "I was wrong before. I'm sorry I made you unhappy."

Xie Chuan: "..." I'm not awake. This must be a hallucination.

Pei Xingyan: "I'm sorry."

Xie Chuan: "..." He has a fever. His brain must be fried.

After one boundary-crossing act after another, Xie Chuan finally loses patience, corners him in the classroom, and glares at him.

"Pei Xingyan, do you fucking like me or not?"

Pei Xingyan gazes at him with dark eyes. "Do you think I like you... or don't?"

"..."

In his previous life: secret love, restraint, silent protection.

In this life: To hell with secret love. He's a double-standard, green-tea schemer. Nobody else gets near him.

He slowly recovers his memories and learns that he and Xie Chuan used to date.

Pei Xingyan: What's dignity? Never heard of it.

He pursues, Xie Chuan evades, but there's no escape •̀֊•́

Later, Xie Chuan develops an uncontrollable separation anxiety around Pei Xingyan. The longer they're apart, the more it hurts.

He says, "Pei Xingyan, I think my body can't be without you."

Pei Xingyan feels sorry for him, but secretly can't help rejoicing. Xie Chuan can't live without him now and can only stay by his side...
