      Gong’s POV:

      When Gu Yunjue first laid eyes on Shen Qingyan, a junior, during his freshman orientation, he was completely stunned by his beauty. It was the first time he had ever felt attracted to someone, and that someone happened to be a man.

      Determined to win Shen Qingyan over, he resorted to aggressive pursuit, threatening him with expulsion and withholding his degree. However, as days passed, seeing Shen Qingyan’s quiet endurance made Gu Yunjue waver. Perhaps… he had done something wrong…

      In the end, Gu Yunjue left Shen Qingyan a large sum of money and fled abroad to study.

      Two years later, when he returned home, Shen Qingyan threw himself into his arms and complained, “So you finally remembered to come back. Did you forget about your boyfriend?”

      Gu Yunjue: “?”

       

      Shou’s POV:

      Shen Qingyan was pursued by a tall, handsome underclassman. His heart fluttered, and every day felt like being soaked in honey.

      But he discovered with some distress that his junior seemed to prefer seeing him in being forced. However, it didn’t really bother him. In fact, he found it more thrilling that way.

      After dating for one semester, his junior suddenly went abroad to study, leaving him a large sum of money. It must have been meant to ensure he kept himself “pure” during his absence…

    • Mushroom Cultivation Guide Cover
      by Raine

      As a researcher, Jiang Songshi diligently cultivated fungi.

      Divided into three sections, shaken on time, temperature precisely controlled…

      Then, the fungi went bad.

      In a fit of anger, Jiang Songshi went out to clear his mind and found a newly-formed wild mushroom.

      The little mushroom swayed its head, foolishly grinning at him.

      Considering mushrooms are also fungi, Jiang Songshi took the little mushroom home.

      His experience in the laboratory told him that mushrooms could easily go bad.

      So, the little mushroom’s clothes had to be the softest, its food the greenest, kept in the mouth for fear of melting, cradled in the palm for fear of dropping1含在嘴里怕化了,捧在手心怕摔了 (Hán zài zuǐ lǐ pà huàle, pěng zài shǒuxīn pà shuāile) – This is a figurative saying that is often used to describe parents’ excessive doting on their children. The metaphor is that if you care about something very much, you will not feel at ease no matter where you put it, which means that you care about it very much., Jiang Songshi raised the little mushroom with utmost care.

      But…

      The little mushroom didn’t seem to think so.

      Hey! Why does that person dancing wildly across the bar look so familiar?

      —-

      Wild Mushroom: (Shaking a wine glass) Let’s dance and have fun!

      Lab Mushroom: The culture dish temperature rose by 0.01 degrees, it’s dead.

      [Tips:]

      1. A short, sweet bedtime story;
      2. Diligent researcher gong X wild (but still very cute) little mushroom shou;
      3. Love is the greatest! Please don’t overanalyze the settings.

      by Raine

      A dark, cold, and taciturn gong x a gentle, scholarly, and occasionally feisty shou beset by misfortune.

      He Chen x Xu Yuan.

      Xu Yuan grew up with praises for his family background, good looks, and pleasant personality. He believed no problem was unsolvable, until the day—he transitioned from an Alpha to an Omega, his family went bankrupt, his parents ran away, and he was sold by his friend…

      He had no idea what hell-level difficulty was until now, finding the absurdity somewhat laughable. After sleeping with his archenemy and love rival, he wished the King of Hell would come and take him away.

      His crush: “…He has always loved you, I thought you knew.”

      Xu Yuan: “…Huh?”

      His crush: “Xu Yuan, recognize your true feelings sooner.”

      Later, Xu Yuan realized that, when he was oblivious, He Chen had endured near-hellish suffering just to obtain the treasure bestowed by the Goddess of Fortune.

      Notes:

      1. The plot is common, even melodramatic; don’t focus too much on logic, it’s a bedtime short story.
      2. Proceed with caution if you’re an extreme control freak, and be ready to withdraw.
      3. Bittersweet taste, HE.
