Reborn to Give My Nemesis a Chance to Confess

[Cool, aloof, and haughty queen-like bottom & twisted, mad, devoted guard-dog top]

[Enemies-to-lovers ◆ combative couple ◆ childhood friends]

1,

Shen Yu and his nemesis Ji Yang had been at odds their whole lives, and nobody knew that he was actually in love with Ji Yang.

Loving him was one thing, but confessing was absolutely out of the question.

Ji Yang was a bastard who loved to bully him. If he found out, he'd laugh at Shen Yu like crazy, then use his feelings to climb all over him and throw his weight around. [Smile]

Considering how they'd never gotten along from childhood to adulthood, trading insults whenever they met and sometimes even getting into fights, Shen Yu was sure that this idiot Ji Yang hated his guts. [Smile]

But when Ji Yang got into a car accident, he sent a message to only Shen Yu. It contained just five words:

I love you, idiot.

After Ji Yang died, Shen Yu received a huge cardboard box from Ji Yang's parents. It was stuffed full, and every single thing inside was Ji Yang's way of confessing his love.

He wandered through a daze for a while. When he opened his eyes, he was back on the eve of starting university, when he and Ji Yang still lived across the hall from each other.

The first thing he did was kick open Ji Yang's front door. As Ji Yang stared at him in surprise, he lifted his chin:

"Get down on your knees. I'll give you a chance to confess to me."

Ji Yang: ?

He was about to snap, "What the hell is wrong with you?" when he suddenly noticed that Shen Yu's eyes were inexplicably red around the rims, like a rabbit's. It looked kind of cute, and made Ji Yang's lower abdomen warm.

The words on the tip of his tongue took an unexpected turn. Ji Yang's Adam's apple bobbed as he spoke with his usual shameless confidence:

"I can get down on my knees, but you have to let me kiss you. Got the nerve?"

2,

Ji Yang had liked Shen Yu since they were little. His mother herself had confirmed it. Apparently, as soon as he learned to crawl, he made the long and arduous journey across the play mat just to touch Shen Yu's face.

Yes, touch.

But after he touched him, little Shen Yu cried his heart out, a conspicuous red mark on his fair, tender cheek.

Ji Yang had always hated that. He hated how his several-month-old self had been too rough, and how, all these years later, Shen Yu still met him with either wariness, guardedness, or both.

Baby Ji Yang hadn't known his own strength, but the more mature Ji Yang considered himself quite restrained.

To be specific, even if he'd kissed Shen Yu all over in a dream the night before, when Shen Yu beat him up the next day, he still didn't take the opportunity to sneak a couple of gropes at his waist.

Ji Yang: gentlemanly, self-controlled, steady and composed. That was just who he was.

But lately, Gentleman Ji had been having trouble keeping himself in check.

Shen Yu had picked up some nasty trick from who knows where and told him to kneel and confess.

What a joke. A man's knees should never... But he could get a kiss after confessing.

To hell with all those rules.

* Cool, aloof, and haughty queen-like bottom; twisted, mad, devoted guard-dog top

* Shen Yu & Ji Yang

* Twisted and mad are the top's traits, but at heart he's a devoted guard dog. The top really is a total pervert, the kind who gets off on being insulted by the bottom (.

* They're a combative couple at first, but later it's just one causing trouble while the other indulges him. Sweetness all the way through~

* As usual, 1v1 and a happy ending. They're devoted to each other in body and heart in both this life and the last. They're firmly locked together, and the author melted the key.

Theme: Don't leave regrets in life. If you love someone, say it out loud.
