Gentle Taming

Question: What’s it like for a straight man to be confessed to twice by a handsome younger guy?

Luo Jin: Thanks for asking. I treated him like a younger brother—but he wanted to get in my bed.

The first time was in the kitchen. Duan Xingchi hooked a finger around his apron tie and undid it, his cool palm resting on Luo Jin’s waist.

“Ge, you already know, don’t you? I like you.”

Luo Jin tensed up and replied, “And you know I’m straight.”

The second time was in a not-so-spacious bathroom. Duan Xingchi’s fingers traced the artery at the back of Luo Jin’s neck, eyes lowered as he looked at him.

“Ge, give it a try with me. I’m serious.”

Luo Jin’s Adam’s apple bobbed. “I told you—I’m straight.”

He thought Duan Xingchi’s feelings were just a fleeting crush of youth. But once he lost control and fell into it, he was afraid the heat would fade—while he himself could no longer pull away.

So he chose to escape, like an ostrich burying its head in the sand.

In the end, Duan Xingchi hugged him one last time, his tone cold yet helpless.
“Ge, stop hiding from me. I won’t bother you anymore.”

Luo Jin returned to living alone, but after their separation, the love only fermented—growing stronger and wilder.

When they met again, he was uneasy, taking the initiative to reach out.

The younger man was eager and passionate; the older one nervous and shy.

After a kiss, Duan Xingchi’s voice turned low and hoarse.
“From the way you’re acting, it doesn’t look like you don’t like me.”
