As mentioned earlier, the roommate is quite difficult to deal with.
He has very picky tastes.
For instance, from his perspective, he thinks even good-looking guys are ugly.
Moreover, he has high standards for his housemates.
Hair can’t be too long, nails can’t be kept long, you must shower at least every other day, and you can’t be unattractive.
And one more important rule: you must be single.
When the young handsome guy first saw this rental ad, he thought to himself, “Is this person crazy?”
But after meeting his roommate, he felt a bit enchanted.
He’s so handsome, so having a bit of personality is normal.

The young handsome guy has a good temperament, but due to being bullied in high school, he’s afraid of living in dorms.
So, he looked for a place off-campus.
That’s how he happened to meet his current roommate.
Although the roommate thinks he’s ugly, it’s clear the young handsome guy is much better than the previous tenants.
The roommate, hands in his pockets, looked him up and down.
He pouted but reluctantly agreed.

The young handsome guy is a diligent and hardworking person.
After the two started living together, he took care of all the household chores, both big and small.
As a result, the roommate, who had initially agreed reluctantly, now waits at home on time for meals.
Every time the young handsome guy served food, he couldn’t help but feel like he had adopted a dog.
He really wanted to pat this young handsome guy’s head.
But unfortunately, it’s like dealing with a dumb husky that turns on you after eating!

At first, the young handsome guy didn’t like his roommate either.
Sure, he’s handsome, but it’s not like he’d get excited just because of a good-looking face, let alone fall in love at first sight. None of that cliché stuff.
What’s more, he had been bullied in high school because he had fallen for a scumbag.
That guy used to flirt with him ambiguously, teasing him now and then.
The young handsome guy, still naive back then, was eventually led astray.
Then, one time when the scumbag got drunk, he almost took advantage of the young handsome guy.
In his embarrassment, the young handsome guy refused. It wasn’t that he didn’t want to, he just thought it was too fast.
Unexpectedly, the scumbag’s girlfriend saw the whole thing.
To clear his own name, the scumbag cursed at the young handsome guy, calling him a “disgusting gay.”
And accused the young handsome guy of shamelessly seducing him.
From that point on, the young handsome guy’s school life turned into a nightmare.
He became scared and no longer dared to like anyone.

Why did he eventually fall for his roommate?
The young handsome guy isn’t quite sure himself.
His roommate has very picky tastes, so despite being surrounded by many options, he never seems satisfied with anyone.
Sometimes, after going to a bar, the roommate would come back in a foul mood, frustrated.
Seeing the young handsome guy wearing an apron, chopping ingredients for the next day’s breakfast, the roommate would sulk and start whining.
Of course, his way of whining was quite unique.
He would stand next to the young handsome guy, arms crossed, rolling his eyes: “The people at the bar are all so ugly. Why isn’t there anyone good-looking?”
While chopping, the young handsome guy would reply, “There must be someone with big eyes and fair skin, right?”
The roommate would casually pat the young handsome guy’s butt and say, “Their butts aren’t as perky as yours.”
And then he’d leave.
Leaving the young handsome guy alone in the kitchen, blushing with his heart racing.
