The gong seems domineering, arrogant, and impossibly cool, but is actually a shameless, spoiled, love-brained masochist who lives off others.
The shou seems pitiful, weak, and easy to bully, but actually hits people right in the face, is ruthless, and is a sadist.
Does a man forcing himself on another man count as breaking the law?
Yun Haichen, Right Vice Minister of the Dali Court, has spent years hearing cases, but this is the first time he's faced such a difficult one. On one side is a delicate, innocent victim, and on the other is a bully who runs roughshod over the local community. He thought it would be a simple case, but the deeper he investigated, the more he realized that the man who had nearly been bullied that day didn't seem as innocent as he appeared.
The shattered, despairing look in Xiao Renyu's eyes that day stayed with Yun Haichen. In a state of panic, Xiao Renyu said, "He bullied me."
But in reality... Xiao Renyu, who seemed gentle and refined, appeared to be the most perplexing mystery in the case.
Note, 2025.5.2
Yun Haichen, stop acting like a jerk. Xiao Renyu, don't go soft.
The gong is a haughty young master who appears stern and domineering but is a masochist at heart.
The shou seems innocent and delicate but is actually a calculating, sadistic lunatic.
Yun Haichen has been the Right Vice Minister of the Dali Court for years and thought he'd seen every kind of scheming, cunning suspect. But it wasn't until he met Xiao Renyu that he realized there's always someone more devious, and that beyond ordinary suspects are suspects who pretend to be innocent and make people feel sorry for them. And... why has he suddenly started liking men?
Before Yun Haichen understood his feelings, the impartial and incorruptible Lord Yun told everyone: "Xiao Renyu is vile by nature and always puts on an act! Don't let him fool you!"
After he understood his feelings, the love-struck, muddleheaded Lord Yun told everyone: "Don't say that about him. It'll make him cry. He has his reasons!"
All right, Lord Yun, aren't you something?

Theme: Those who keep others warm must not be left to freeze in the snow
I'm really curious about what the enmity between Xiao Renyu and the Jin family is... There are speculations but they don't feel consistent with the existing information [question mark] Looking forward to the follow-up...!
