I had an upcoming novel turn into a published story, and having an unfinished project was bugging me, so I decided to write a short story instead. I've already had all the fun in my head, hehehe.
Gu Fengche is a rich second-generation kid who grew up spoiled. His parents had only one requirement for him: grow up happy.
But that changed when he was eight, after a new student joined his elite school: Jiang Chi, the kind of kid other parents wish they had.
His parents began to expect a little more ambition from Gu Fengche.
He hated Jiang Chi. He was handsome and clever, but had a nasty mouth and was always mocking him.
That hatred didn't fade with time. If anything, it grew stronger after Jiang Chi took over his family's business and became its CEO.
Until one day, he and Jiang Chi were locked in a room they couldn't get out of unless they did xx.
Jiang Chi was an illegitimate child, brought back by the family only to keep its internal power dynamics in check.
He'd known since childhood that he was the one who'd been abandoned, so he worked hard to improve himself.
He hated that arrogant young master, and hated his clumsy, blundering attempts to show concern.
That hatred didn't fade with time, but gradually changed after the other guy took over an entertainment company and became its CEO, spending every day surrounded by handsome men and beautiful women.
Until one day, he and Gu Fengche were locked in a room they couldn't get out of unless they did xx.
Gu Fengche: "I don't care. Let's fight first. Whoever wins gets to top."
Jiang Chi: "Oh."
Gu Fengche flushed bright red. "What? I lost? Then I still want to top!"
Jiang Chi smiled. "Sure."
Afterward, Gu Fengche trembled all over. "You're a lunatic! Get out!"
Jiang Chi tightened his grip on the only thing Gu Fengche had on, his tie, and pressed him against his chest. His breath was hot and heavy.
"Look at yourself in the mirror. Are you sure you want me to leave?"
Gu Fengche's voice broke into a sob. "I hate you so much!"
Jiang Chi: "Me too."
