A Guide to Acting Tough for Crybabies

The main story is complete. All it takes is half a glass of lemonade! (*ˊvˋ)

A fierce-looking but actually soft, crybaby shou x a gong who dislikes him at first, then becomes a sharp-tongued, fiercely protective softie

Nan Runxing x Jiang Yanchu

Nan Runxing looked fierce, with a faint flush at the corners of his eyes, but no one dared tease him. Everyone knew he was not someone to mess with.

But nobody knew he was prone to crying uncontrollably.

His tearful constitution caused him plenty of trouble. Whenever his emotions ran high, tears would well up against his will, so he chose to find someone online to confide in.

That way, even if his eyes were red and puffy, his voice trembled, and fat tears fell onto his phone screen, nobody would notice.

First-floor reply: [Maybe you should get checked for attention-seeking syndrome.]

[What do you mean?]

[This kind of engagement bait is outdated. Give it a rest.]

More fat tears rolled down Nan Runxing's face. The internet really was full of awful people. Eyes red, he angrily typed a single word: [Get lost.]

The first time Jiang Yanchu saw Nan Runxing, he was taken aback by the aura of menace around him. He fought like he didn't care if he lived or died, could argue with an entire street of people, and yet the faint flush at the corners of his eyes was like a hook, drawing everyone's gaze.

He swore to stay as far away from this guy as possible, until he came across a post online:

[Help! I keep crying when I get into fights or argue with people! Could this be a tearful constitution?]

Jiang Yanchu sneered, keeping up his caustic persona:

[Who ordered the guide to starting an account?]

From that day on, he and the original poster became enemies, trading insults online day and night as if they had been destined to torment each other for eight lifetimes.

Then one day, the power went out. When Nan Runxing, looking fierce but with red-rimmed eyes, hid in his arms, Jiang Yanchu was confused.

Jiang Yanchu awkwardly half-wrapped his arms around him, then stiffly hugged him back, feeling the person in his arms tremble and sob softly.

This...

He was way too cute!!!

Jiang Yanchu, having completely forgotten his former self: Who says crybabies are no good? This crybaby is wonderful!

Later, one day, Nan Runxing came out of the shower and spotted Jiang Yanchu's phone on the table, its screen still on. He saw a post that looked very familiar.

Nan Runxing (silent, eyes filling with tears): ...

Jiang Yanchu (dropping to his knees): No, no, baby, let me explain!

You always have to pay for the stupid things you said in the past.
