Summary:
The year he was fifteen, Ling Ke realized he was gay, and that he fell in love with a hot guy the same gender he was! Ling Ke spied on the other's online friend group, payed attention to that person's every move, and privately, started his fanatical fanboying actions. Unfortunately, the hot guy he liked was someone who changed girlfriends like he changed clothes, a pretentious and straight male.
A few years later, Ling Ke and the hot guy he was secretly in love with got into the same university and became good friends. In order to prevent his beloved from hating him, Ling Ke repressed his true feelings and forced himself to pretend to be a 24k, pure gold straight guy.
......Having high-spec looks, Qi Feng was a networking expert, but in order to preserve his all-around shining and popular hearthrob image, he always hid his true sexuality, that he was gay. He got himself (fake) girlfriends all throughout school, literally playing himself into being branded as a skirt-chaser.
Until one day, he met his true love. The other looked delicate and gentle, cold and out-of-reach, as if the ideal lover he'd dreamed of in his heart.
Except, there was just one thing. That guy also looked completely straight......
In short, this is the love story of two scared, in-the-closet gay guys pretending to be straight while mutually trying to feel the other out.
Review:
It's a story of misunderstands, foolish decisions, and fluffy, fluffy love. One of my favorite part of this story is the main characters poking at each other bottom line trying to find a place in each other's live. Their actions and decisions are like two teens trying to find a way to be closer to those you love while being to scared to admit you love them.
This is a love story. Some might complain to too cliche or simple but I think the author did a good job with the characters enough that that is not problem. Sometimes, you just need a cliche being to fill your heart.

I've been watching gay movies and this reminds me of them. Love Simon is amazing and I just watched The Way He Looks.

Sadness brought to you by me:
I want to go back to a time where I didn't care what my body looked like, the shape of my thighs or the shape of my face. I want to go back to a time where I wasn't constantly lonely when seeing other's relationship- when that only thing that really matter to me were school, family and friends. I don't want to think stupid thoughts about people who I could never and will never be together with. I don't want to feel hurt when I realize that I'm not special to that person or any person for the matter and that they were being nice. I want to go back to a time where niceness didn't lead me on. I want to go back into a time where I stuck my head in a book and read about new worlds or novel romances. I don't want feel like these are all lies and the feeling you get in your heart will fade like everything else.
Or maybe, growing up hurts. Maybe I'm just being nostalgic about the past because I understand that I hated that person years ago. I gain some wisdom and some experience growing up and now it's time to pay the emotional price for that. I want to go back to a time when I didn't face the problems or emotions I do now but I forget the problems and emotions I felt back then.
I know one thing. I don't want to feel like I do now, stupid, alone, and embarrassed.
