He Wenqi once loved a neighbor who was his childhood sweetheart. That person would help him tutor his schoolwork; In winter, he would warm the bed for him, tucking Wenqi’s icy hands and feet into his own chest; On rainy days when Wenqi didn’t want to get his shoes wet, he would carry him on his back all the way home; He would even peel crawfish for him and eat the leftovers that Wenqi picked out and didn’t want… The two went to school, ate, and slept together until the other went to a different province for university.
After graduating from high school, He Wenqi took his admission notice and rushed excitedly to the other’s city. “Brother Ji, the university I got into is in the same city as yours. Can we be together?” “I don’t like men,” Han Ji said, and subsequently accepted a confession from a female classmate. It turned out it was all just his own unrequited wish. He Wenqi deleted all of the other’s contact information.
Four years later, Han Ji saw He Wenqi again in a video sent by a friend. Even though a lace blindfold covered half his face, he recognized him at a single glance. The person he had sought for years but couldn’t find was now on a nightclub stage, pleasing others. Burning with jealousy, Han Ji rushed from the airport, cornering him and questioning him coldly: “Why are you in a place like this? You are not allowed to come to such places ever again.” He Wenqi looked up, his gaze distant: “Han Ji, we aren’t close. What right do you have to control me?”
The next day, the company where He Wenqi worked issued a strange and overbearing rule: Current employees are not allowed to go to nightclubs.
The new CEO arrived at the company a month early, catching everyone off guard. Later, everyone discovered that this extremely difficult-to-deal-with boss especially loved to torment the intern who hadn’t yet become permanent: He Wenqi. “Your workload is too light; come here and serve as my assistant concurrently.” “Order my meals according to my taste. If you order wrong, your salary will be docked.” “We have to finalize a plan with a client tomorrow. Stay tonight to organize the materials; you are not allowed to leave without my permission.” Working through the night, He Wenqi fell asleep exhausted at his desk. When he woke up startled, he found Han Ji was secretly kissing him…
Much later, He was held in Han Ji’s arms on a rooftop, being kissed over and over again amidst the New Year’s fireworks blooming across the sky. He Wenqi’s eyes were wet and red, his voice fragmented: “Didn’t you say you don’t like men?” “Mm, I don’t.” Han Ji placed a scalding kiss on the tip of his nose with extreme preciousness. “I only like you.”
