Roseheart

[Main story complete. Bonus chapters will be released from time to time]

When Wen Zichuan was at his lowest, he met Cheng Sizhou, a straightforward, sunny, gentle, and well-read man. He admitted he had fallen for him, but the look Cheng Sizhou gave him was hardly innocent, either.

Cheng Sizhou was easy to like. Without a second thought, Wen Zichuan confessed, but Cheng Sizhou failed to catch his heartfelt love and let it fall to the ground.

Wen Zichuan was so angry he ran away from home. Cheng Sizhou pinned him to the bed and stared at him. "You want to be with me that badly? Do you even know what kind of person I am?"

Wen Zichuan closed his eyes and kissed him, his heart pounding. "I don't care what kind of person you are. Nothing is more precious than loving you."

Wen Zichuan and Cheng Sizhou got together. As Wen Zichuan obediently and thoughtfully played the perfect lover, Cheng Sizhou's excessive rationality left him deeply wounded.

When his ex showed up to provoke him, all he wanted was to avoid a scene.

When the Cheng family parents humiliated him to his face, he hardly dared to fight back.

When his mentor's wife accused Wen Zichuan's entire family of being murderers, he couldn't even manage a single word of rebuttal.

On the day he was most disappointed, Wen Zichuan left with the keepsake that marked their love. He thought Cheng Sizhou would come after him and ask him to stay, but instead, he got a breakup.

Cheng Sizhou fell in love with Wen Zichuan at first sight.

After Wen Zichuan left, he suffered from severe separation anxiety and depression.

He cut himself to stay alert. Under every stack of his manuscripts, he hid a portrait of Wen Zichuan. He hid poems confessing his love in a porcelain vase, hoping Wen Zichuan would find them, yet hoping he never would.

Sick and in pain, Cheng Sizhou used himself as bait to draw out the real culprit, all to recover the smuggled cultural relics and clear the Wen family's name. But what he regretted most was breaking up with Wen Zichuan when he needed him most.

Two years later, Wen Zichuan became a hit after starring in a TV drama and rose to become a top-tier star.

But lately, he kept feeling that someone was watching him from behind.

It wasn't until he was pulled into a familiar embrace that he finally saw who it was.

Young Master Cheng had been raised in luxury since childhood and cared deeply about his pride.

But that day, he knelt on the floor to wash Wen Zichuan's feet, ate all the leftovers Wen Zichuan casually tossed his way, let Wen Zichuan step on his shoulders, and accepted every bit of torment and humiliation Wen Zichuan gave him, willingly.

Cheng Sizhou: "Did I do a good job?"

Wen Zichuan: "So-so."

Cheng Sizhou: "Can I stay by your side?"

Wen Zichuan: "Then start by sharing my bed. Let me see whether those hands that restored national treasures know how to take care of a person."
