Hey, Classmate, Can I Touch You?

#Size Difference / Skin Tone Difference

Song Zhixing, a gorgeous young man at an art academy, has a secret:

He became financially independent by drawing pretty, paper-thin bishonen, but he can't draw muscular hunks.

Then a high-paying manga collaboration came his way, featuring a dominant top and a soft bottom.

Song Zhixing wanted the money, but he couldn't draw a dominant top, so he cried and put up a roommate wanted ad that very night:

"Urgently seeking a roommate and male model with eight-pack abs! Rent negotiable. Free rent if I can touch your muscles!"

Three days later, the academy's notorious demon king knocked on his door.

This guy was famous as "the gay community's dream man," but he was cold and straight as an arrow. His social media bio had been the same for years: Ask me, I'm straight. Straighter than steel.

Lu Yuanzhao stood with one hand in his pocket, his perfect physique barely hidden beneath his athletic tank top. He asked casually, "I'm 192 centimeters tall, with pecs, abs, and a V-line. Do I qualify?"

Song Zhixing gripped his paintbrush, his eyelashes trembling. "A-aren't you straight?"

Lu Yuanzhao: "Aren't you straight too? A straight guy should help a straight guy out. Get it?"

Song Zhixing, a pretty little bottom who'd just been turned gay in the prime of his life: "...Y-yeah."

For the sake of art, he could set his sexuality aside for a while!

A year later, the danmei manga My Neighbor Is Watching Me appeared out of nowhere. It became famous for its dark, damp, love-laden story and delicate, intensely sensual art style. Fans were so obsessed that they cried out that they'd gladly be dogs for the manga's lead artist, Star Jar.

Then one day, at four in the morning, Star Jar suddenly posted an update. It showed a stretch of honey-colored neck marked with a beautiful bite, accompanied by the caption:

[Star Jar: I've got a dog now @The Jar That Holds Star Jar]

Star Jar was a guy, and that neck was clearly a man's, so...

Fans: We were shipping the real deal all along!!!
