Goodbye, Seine

Coming soon: Berlin Is Snowing Today. Gentle, resilient bottom x arrogant elite top

1

Leo, a delicious little sweetheart born of a Sino-French collaboration: an angelic face, loves to act cute, looks good and tastes good.

Male, likes men, and his heart belongs to Shen Xuyan.

Shen Xuyan is the unattainable campus idol of A University. Rumor has it that his admirers could line up all the way to France. Leo isn't worried in the least, because he was born in France.

Although Shen Xuyan looks especially aloof, he's also especially hard to win over.

For example:

Leo asks him out to dinner, and he says he's not hungry. Leo asks him to a movie, and he says he's busy. Leo waits for him outside his dorm, and Shen Xuyan manages to pretend he doesn't see him.

Even when Leo throws himself into his arms, Shen Xuyan can still push him away with a cold face and say coolly, “I don't like people who are too forward. Please have some self-respect.”

Nothing is impossible, as long as you're willing to give up.

After being rejected by Shen Xuyan time and again, Leo decisively gives up pursuing him and turns to make dinner plans with a junior he just met.

But before he can even leave his dorm, Shen Xuyan, who has always avoided him, blocks the doorway.

Leo raises an eyebrow at the grim-faced Shen Xuyan and asks, “What do you want with someone as forward as me?”

Instead, he hears Shen Xuyan ask, completely out of character, “...Are you free to have dinner with me tonight?”

Leo: “Sorry, I already have plans with another junior tonight.”

Shen Xuyan stands in the doorway with a cold expression, saying nothing and not letting him leave.

Leo casually trails a fingertip across his chest. “Shen Xuyan, can I take this to mean you've fallen for me?”

Shen Xuyan: “...”

When he sees that Shen Xuyan won't answer, Leo angrily shoves him aside.

“If there's nothing else, I'm going on my date.”

Shen Xuyan's hand clenches into a fist at his side. “...I'm a junior too.”

“What?”

“I'm a junior too. You can go on a date with me.”

Bonus scene

One day, after Leo gets out of the shower, he lies on the bed. Shen Xuyan hasn't even come close when Leo suddenly jumps up and covers his butt with both hands.

Shen Xuyan: “?”

“What are you doing?”

Leo: “It's Butt Protection Day.”

Shen Xuyan: “Who decided that?”

Leo: “I did.”

Shen Xuyan: “What's the basis for it?”

Leo: “According to the Lei Bao Butt Protection Act, after the butt gets used three times, it automatically enters protection mode to guard against ill-intentioned people.”

Shen Xuyan: o_O?

P.S. Lei Bao is the bottom's nickname.

Reader's guide:

1. Character dynamics: mixed-race sweetheart x Chinese man who can't spit out a word

A scatterbrain and a grouch (not really)

Clingy, pretty bottom x tsundere, handsome top

2. One-on-one, both pure in body and heart! No switching or separating. The bottom pursues the top in the first half, then the top pursues the bottom.

3. Lighthearted, ridiculous comedy, not angsty at all! Not realistic, over-the-top plot, nonsensical, logic-free, just everyday life with no real plot.

4. The top is unlikable at first, and the bottom has no sense of boundaries. Please don't bash the characters. If it's not for you, please drop it early, for both our sakes.
