The Top Can Hear Thoughts, but Goes Deaf on and Off

In their tenth year of love and sixth year of marriage, Chen Sheng realizes that something seems to be wrong with his relationship with Xie Xu. Specifically, Xie Xu keeps coming home later from work, his business trips keep getting longer, and he keeps looking at Chen Sheng as if he wants to say something but can't… Chen Sheng thinks that no one can escape the seven-year itch, but he still loves Xie Xu and wants to save their relationship. What Chen Sheng doesn't expect is that, on the wedding anniversary he's carefully planned, Xie Xu breaks down, wraps his arms around Chen Sheng's waist, and sobs: “You can't leave me, aaaaah! Shengsheng, I'd really die without you. I can't live without you, Shengsheng!!” Chen Sheng: ? Chen Sheng: ??? * Ever since a car accident on his way back from a business trip left him diagnosed with a concussion, Xie Xu has found that he can somehow hear Chen Sheng's thoughts [Xie Xu isn't in great shape. I'd better order some male escorts.] [Well, Xie Xu is a bit old.] [Those idols do have nice bodies. Xie Xu can't compare.] [Wow, that's exciting. Xie Xu can't keep up.] … Xie Xu is devastated. Xie Xu is helpless. Xie Xu immediately starts using all his free time to build muscle and fight aging, racking his brains to prepare all kinds of surprises. But just as he's about to show Chen Sheng the anniversary gift he's prepared, he hears [If Xie Xu doesn't come home, I'm going to sneak a bite.] Xie Xu: !! It's over. Chen Sheng really doesn't love him at all anymore. He doesn't even care about their wedding anniversary. * The thoughts Xie Xu didn't manage to hear in full: “Xie Xu isn't in great shape, so I'll go get roast duck with Chen Chen instead.” “Yeah, the meat Xie Xu stewed today is a little tough, but it still tastes great!” “Those idols do have nice bodies, but they still can't compare to Xie Xu.” “Wow, that's exciting, but it doesn't compare to Xie Xu.” “I'm starving. If Xie Xu doesn't come back soon, I'm going to sneak a bite of cake!” Theme: Communication is the bridge that builds trust
