Qin Can was a sunny character, who’s not only handsome and charming, but was also well-liked by everyone in the lab.
Everyone, that is, except for Xie Yijin.
Qin Can: “Senior, here’s the research direction I’ve been working on. You…”
Xie Yijin: “Sorry, I don’t do collaborations.”
Qin Can: “It’s my birthday next week. Would you…?”
Xie Yijin: “Sorry, I’m busy.”
Xie Yijin’s academic brilliance was undeniable, but he was aloof. Cold, distant, and always on his own.
That was, until one stormy night.
Qin Can entered the lab when he suddenly collided with a barely conscious Xie Yijin, whose face was reddened and whose steps seemed unsteady.
Everything went into a whirlwind. As they stumbled, Xie Yijin’s hand brushed against Qin Can’s chest.
He mumbled, “So cushy.”
Qin Can: “What?”
But before he could react, Xie Yijin’s hand slid down, now touching Qin Can’s abs, muttering to himself, “As expected… it’s so nice to touch.”
Qin Can’s face burned, his words caught in his throat. “S-senior?!”
In a moment of complete confusion, Xie Yijin then pressed his face into Qin Can’s chest, his breath shaky. “Don’t move.”
And there, in the stillness of the lab, Xie Yijin ended up in his arms for the rest of the night.
When the storm finally cleared, the two sat in silence, the weight of the night lingering between them.
Xie Yijin’s gaze locked on Qin Can’s toned arm. “I’ll agree to collaborate on your project,” he said casually, “but from now on, we have conditions. When there’s a light rain, you’ll hold my hand. When it’s moderate, you’ll hug me. And then during a heavy rain, you sleep with me. Deal?”
Qin Can: “….?”
a well-built, younger mixed-blood “puppy” gong x a composed, naturally beautiful, and blunt shou
Qin Can x Xie Yijin
The shou suffers from a rare weather sensitivity disorder—whenever it rains, he grows faint and sickly, and the only way he’ll feel better is to cuddle up with something soft and warm. And for some unknown reason, he’s particularly drawn to the gong’s body (literally).
