[Warmhearted, adorably clueless straight bottom × Scheming, possessive, jealous top with gravity powers]
In all his years, Sheng Bochuan had never once questioned his sexual orientation.
But lately, one man kept forcefully appearing in his thoughts, stirring up a tangled mix of love and hate.
Xu Lin was, after all, just a younger brother he was distantly related to.
Ever since the idiot decided to skip a grade and join his class, Sheng Bochuan’s run of bad luck had begun.
Every day, Xu Lin glared at him from every angle for no reason, then went and tattled on him.
All because Sheng Bochuan had mistaken him for a girl when they were little. Was Xu Lin really going to hold a grudge all these years?
Unbelievable! Brother Chuan wasn’t someone who’d just take that kind of crap!

After much thought, Sheng Bochuan turned to the internet for help and found the nastiest trick in the world:
He’d let that bookworm find out how painful love could be.
He didn’t trust anyone else with the job, so he took matters into his own hands. He made an alt account and prepared to have a deep “online romance” with Xu Lin.
The plan was to dump him mercilessly once he was completely hooked.
But Xu Lin seemed like a different person when he was in love. His usual gloomy, taciturn manner was nowhere to be seen. He was terrifyingly forward...
Xu Lin: I miss you so much ^o^
Xu Lin: Shui Shui, you’re such a good girl [kiss]
Xu Lin: Can we go on a date? I really, really want to see you T^T
Xu Lin: I can’t sleep. Can I see a picture of my wife? ^ω^
Sheng Bochuan’s face flushed. Every time, he had to take several deep breaths before replying.

The more time they spent together, the softer Sheng Bochuan’s heart grew. He felt he had been wrong: Xu Lin was really just a sensitive kid beneath that icy exterior.
He decided to take his responsibilities as an older brother seriously and win the kid over with warmth and affection instead.
He gave Xu Lin everything he asked for.
He even went to great lengths to get into the same university as him.
But that stubborn idiot Xu Lin still refused to let go of his fake “girlfriend.”
To keep himself from making any more mistakes, Sheng Bochuan planned to end the deception for good. Xu Lin insisted they meet in person.
With no other choice, he dressed as a girl and went to meet him, steeling himself for the worst.
The lights in the cinema went out. Beside him, Xu Lin’s eyes were as dark as ever.
Sheng Bochuan thought he’d get it over with, but as soon as he forced out the words “let’s break up,” Xu Lin grabbed his wrist and pulled him into his arms.
He looked up in a panic, meeting Xu Lin’s calm, cold gaze.
“You want to break up?”
“What, am I not allowed?” Sheng Bochuan’s heart pounded. He didn’t even dare look up at him.
Seeing this, Xu Lin only chuckled, his laugh dark and eerie, then murmured, “Why don’t you come home with me and say that again?”
Sheng Bochuan stared at the grip he couldn’t escape from, his breath catching.
Damn! I think I’ve taken this too far!
Reader’s guide:
1. Two innocent (debatable) boys dating. They’re a pair of lovable idiots, one-on-one, both sexually pure.
2. You could also sum it up as: a blockhead meets a charcoal briquette.
3. Important: the top and bottom are not related by blood.
Theme: Walk together, shoulder to shoulder, and charge forward without hesitation
