In 1933, the city of Beiping was China’s busiest city, bustling with noise and excitement. However, its liveliness was unlike that of any other place: it came not from the wine-drinking and pleasure-seeking masses in brothels, nor from the ten-miles long markets filled to the brim with foreigners. Rather, it was a one of a kind type of noisiness, beautiful and elegant. The high-pitched singing of kunqu, jingju and qinqiang; the beating of the dagu and the clacking of the bangzi; the clear, loud voices of storytellers narrating the rise and fall of dynasties – each and every traditional art one can think of could be found here, mixed together to create the theatrical world’s... more>> most glorious stage.

This was also the place where the opera world’s most outstanding performer, Shang Xirui, reached his full glory.

An invitation to a home celebration, a face-to-face meeting – this was how Cheng Fengtai, the second master of the Cheng family, got to know the famous opera actor who seemed to only exist in rumors and legends. He plucked the red plum blossom hairpin from the lapel of Shang Xirui’s changshan and smiled, inserting it in the lapel of his own three-piece suit.

In the blink of an eye, they found themselves in the Palace of Eternal Youth.

Shang Xirui sang, “Come, come, come, I’ll accompany Second Master.”

Cheng Fengtai replied, “As long as you want me to, I’ll always accompany you.”

These two people, who grew close because of an opera, also professed their feelings to one another as though enacting lines on a stage.

Later, a distinguished scholar and casanova would narrate their tale in a perfunctory manner: “Today, dear listeners, I bring you a story. Pay close attention, lest you fall behind and fail to understand clearly what I’m about to tell you. Dear listeners, without further ado, this is Winter Begonia.” <<less

Jiang Ling found himself transmigrated into an Interstellar world, in which he was the cannon fodder eldest prince and the useless older brother of the male lead.... more>>

Right now, he was the war prisoner of the enemy country. According to the plot, he, a good-for-nothing, would keep getting into trouble and, finally, die tragically at the hands of the brutal enemy ruler.

When Jiang Ling saw the not-so-handsome, disabled enemy ruler, Chu Wenyu, he quietly thought of a way to escape.

Instead of taking risks, Jiang Ling waited patiently for the day he would be rescued. The main character, leading a fleet of warships, planned to defeat the enemy country in one go.

Chu Wenyu, stuck in a wheelchair, had a serious face when facing the enemy forces. But when he saw his loved one slowly walking towards the enemy, tears welled up in his eyes, and he couldn’t control his emotions.

Watching the person with shrunken legs rolling on the ground, desperately crawling in the dirt, his hands stained with blood, determined to reach him.

Jiang Ling helplessly pulled him into his arms and muttered, “You’re really a troublesome old devil.”

Duan Jiashu: I would rather starve to death and jump from here, but I won’t sell CP with You Xin!... more>>

*The camera pans*

Duan Jiashu: It’s really good, selling cp with You Xin feels really good.

—

You Xin, a low-tier idol, is known for his agent marketing his CP’s to grow popular over the years, but the ships involving him always led to a “bad end”. Duan Jiashu on the other hand, is a popular actor who detests selling CP and even has a hobby of reporting CP content that involved him.

When the two both star in a variety show, You Xin tries to stir up CP with Duan Jiashu, but before he could even make his move, the other already treated him like air. Unexpectedly, after their earlier scuffle, Duan Jiashu himself proposes to sleep in the same room as him. Even more unexpected was that when their CP started to grow popular without his agent’s marketing strategy, Duan Jiashu himself proposed to sell CP with him. But according to Duan Jiashu, his proposal isn’t selling CP, it’s just “acting”.

You Xin: isn’t this the same thing?!

“CP is fake, but happiness is real.” <<less

“The Straight Roommate Keeps Secretly Drinking My Cola” ... more>>

Song Tianxi is the top beauty in the dance department, majoring in classical dance. His graceful dance moves and elegant figure are unparalleled. When he wears a chiffon dress, he’s as delicate as a blooming lotus, captivating everyone.

People who practice dancing need to stay in shape, but Song Tianxi has an addiction to sweets. In order to avoid excess fat on his alluring waistline, he only drinks three sips of cola each day.

However, someone actually stole his leftover cola?!

Song Tianxi: Every time I drink cola, I lick the sugar residue from the bottle’s mouth clean. How can someone not find that repulsive?

The real culprit was quickly discovered. It was Su Yan, the captain of the volleyball team in the same dormitory. This guy was tall, healthy, handsome, and carried an air of pride. He was dubbed the “Last Straight Man of X University.” Many same-s*x admirers attempted to confess their feelings, but they were coldly rejected by his cutting words.

Song Tianxi: I’m literally gay, and yet he’s not bothered by it at all?

Su Yan’s behavior becomes increasingly outrageous:

In the morning, he would put skimmed calcium-enriched hot milk in Song Tianxi’s pocket;

At night, he would forcibly crawl into Song Tianxi’s bed curtains and cuddle him to sleep;

Song Tianxi, without hesitation, drinks the leftover cola he touched, and even after chugging it down, he smacks his lips, savoring the taste.

In everyone’s eyes, the “Last Straight Man of X University” seems to have bent into a ball of steel wire, with no hope of remaining straight.

Song Tianxi gradually indulges in this meticulous care.

Every night during practice, he likes to lift one leg high against Su Yan’s tall 190cm frame, positioning his leg in front of a floor-to-ceiling mirror. He gets close to Su Yan’s Adam’s apple and in a deep, sweet voice asks, “What do you eat to grow so tall? My leg is getting strained.”

It wasn’t until Song Tianxi overheard Su Yan chatting with his teammates that he realized Captain Su had mistaken him for taking care of a child from a mature family.

Su Yan would put his hands in his pockets and disdainfully say, “Being gay is the most disgusting thing. If it weren’t for my family’s business, who would have the time to serve him like this?”

Turns out, everything he liked was misplaced charity.

Song Tianxi moved out of the dormitory.

During a charity performance, Song Tianxi didn’t have time to remove his makeup. He stood on the street after rain, wearing a sexy undershirt, looking like a peerless peony in its prime.

A Maybach parked slowly, and a man with an unfriendly expression walked out, attempting to forcefully take Song Tianxi away.

Then a Harley motorcycle abruptly braked, and Su Yan, who got off the bike, rushed over.

Later on, Su Yan, with red eyes, cried to Song Tianxi.

“I care about you, not because I dislike gay people, but because the person I like happens to be a boy.”

“Tian Tian, I was wrong, please don’t abandon me, okay?”

Unaware of his own charm, the first-place dancer entices with × straight-style hard moves and licks his “wife’s” bottle cap with both hands and feet. <<less
