When the Hottie Who Fears Men Moves Into a Straight Guy's Dorm

Melancholy, men-averse, flirtatious prince-like bottom x bad-boy, jealous, straight, rabid-dog top

The campus heartthrob, Xia Shu, suffers from severe and advanced gynophobia.

He keeps away from all male creatures year-round, even timing his bathroom trips to avoid them with pinpoint accuracy.

Whenever the boys have a group activity, he claims to be sick and acts weak... He thought he could make it through three peaceful years of middle school this way.

But he just had to be ridiculously good-looking, come from a wealthy family, and consistently rank first in his grade... On the first day of school, he instantly captivated a group of dark-skinned, straight male roommates and became the number one target of their aggressive socializing.

"Xia Shu, let's play basketball!"

"Your brother and my brother are friends, so you and I are brothers too!"

"Come on, bro, give me a hug!"

"Don't run, bro! Let's go to the bathroom together..."

Xia Shu kept his face icy, trembling inside.

A story where everyone's in love with him?

No! This was clearly a large-scale public humiliation for a guy terrified of men.

Of all his fiery, enthusiastic roommates, only the transfer student, Zhou Kang, was cold and cruel.

He had a face like a god and the temperament of a rabid dog. Not only had he crushed Xia Shu in the entrance exams, he was also a "master of schemes."

He launched a "best-bro conquest game" targeting Xia Shu:

They would set stakes and bet on who could be the first to become intimate with him.

On the surface, he led the charge in pursuing their new "bro." In secret, he laid traps and schemes, determined to strip the "pretty bro" of his cool, flawless facade.

Xia Shu recoiled from being touched. Zhou Kang leaned closer and sneered, "Playing hard to get?"

Xia Shu sprinted to the bathroom. Zhou Kang pursued him relentlessly. "Sooner or later, I'll get my hands on something I can use against you."

Then, one evening beneath a sky ablaze with sunset, Zhou Kang cornered Xia Shu on the rooftop and delivered his ultimate threat with a roguish grin: "Choose. Come to the bathroom with me like a good boy, or... let me examine you right now?"

At first, Zhou Kang thought Xia Shu was a shameless poser and even wanted to ruin his reputation.

Later, when he learned the truth... tears streamed down his face.

[Yesterday: cried little pearls for him]

[Today: slapped himself hard]

[Tomorrow? I'm cutting ties with every player in this game!]
