Synopsis

At fifteen, Ling Ke discovered he was gay—he'd fallen for a hot guy! He snooped on the guy's WeChat Moments, followed his every move, and privately went full-on rabid fanboy. Unfortunately, the hottie he liked was a dumbass straight guy who changed girlfriends like he changed clothes.

A few years later, Ling Ke and his crush got into the same university and became good friends. To keep the guy he liked from finding him repulsive, Ling Ke suppressed his true nature and forced himself to pass as a solid, 24-karat straight guy.

...

Blessed with gorgeous looks, Qi Feng was a social butterfly. But to maintain his dazzling, universally adored image, he'd always hidden the fact that he was gay, collecting plenty of (fake) girlfriends and fucking well turning himself into the very picture of a womanizing playboy.

Until one day, he met his true love. The guy was delicate-featured and quiet, aloof as fuck—the very embodiment of that pure, unattainable love he'd long yearned for.

There was just one problem: the guy also looked completely straight...

In short, this is a love story about two chickenshit gay guys pretending to be straight and trying to feel each other out.
