Lin Qingan had lived for eighteen years before discovering he was trapped inside the world of a romance novel! More importantly, his current self had already become a live-streamer, deliberately blurring his gender to become online dating partners with Xie Tingchuan, the male lead of the novel!
Recalling the tragic end of the cannon fodder characters in the book, Lin Qingan shuddered and made a decisive choice: he had to draw a clear line between himself and the male lead!
With trembling fingers, he typed out a line on his screen: “Big brother, I’ll return the money to you. Let’s break up.”
Unexpectedly, Xie Tingchuan’s reply was simple and brutal: “Meet up in person, or accept punishment. Choose one.”
Meet up? That was absolutely out of the question!
As for the punishment… Lin Qingan fell into a long, profound silence.
Wearing a little black dress, Lin Qingan stood stiffly in place, his earlobes flushed red with shame.
Xie Tingchuan on the other side of the video call: Baby is simply too gorgeous!
Break up! We must break up! Run away! Hurry up and run away!
Later on, Lin Qingan came to terms with his own heart. Casting aside the virtual identity of the internet, he mustered up the courage to interact with Xie Tingchuan offline.
When he truly stood before Xie Tingchuan, he discovered that beneath Xie Tingchuan’s seemingly aloof exterior, all the boundless tenderness he harbored had been given entirely to his online-dating persona all along.
Online, every single word Xie Tingchuan wrote overflowed with longing: Baby, I want to see you.
Offline, Xie Tingchuan wore a cold expression: “Lin Qingan, I don’t like men. Please keep your distance.”
