Cold, aloof real young master gong x spoiled, temperamental fake young master shou
Dog coding: Border Collie x Beagle
/
The summer he was seventeen, He Lin was suddenly approached by his biological mother, Zhou Xi. He learned that he had been switched at birth, and overnight, he went from an orphan to a rich second-generation heir.
But Zhou Xi clearly favored the young master she had raised herself. He was in poor health and used a wheelchair, but he was also spoiled and rebellious.
Zhou Xi told He Lin to transfer to the same high school as Zhou Qingyue. She said Zhou Qingyue had taken a year off, so he was one grade below He Lin, and that publicly, He Lin should be introduced as Zhou Qingyue's older brother, who had gone missing years ago and had only just been found.
The young master scoffed. "Hmph. Big brother."
Then he turned his wheelchair around and slammed the door shut behind him.
Zhou Xi hesitated, but in the end all she said was:
"His heart isn't in great shape. Try to indulge him a little."
Years later, Zhou Xi was arguing with Zhou Qingyue, who had angered her enough to slam her hand on the table. Zhou Qingyue turned and slammed the door behind him. He Lin hadn't even opened his mouth to mediate when Zhou Xi turned and shouted at him:
"His awful temper is all your fault! You spoiled him!"
★ Warnings:
1. The shou is sickly. Does anyone get the Beagle in the dog-coding thing...? Beagles are cute; they only wreck the house when their high needs aren't met... Yeah. The shou is a little Beagle with bad legs, a bad heart, and a temper (I feel like he'll hit me for saying that ^ ^).
2. The gong and shou are the same age. One-on-one romance, both are each other's first and only partner.
