“Hmph! How annoying! You fake straight guy!”

Liang Qing crossed his arms, upset, but still offered to teach me some knowledge and techniques about certain aspects of relationships between guys.

Honestly, I wanted to tell him it wasn’t necessary—I think I’ve remembered everything. But since I was too lazy to explain why I used to claim I was straight, I listened to his serious “lessons” all night.

He said he was very good at being the bottom.

After hearing that, I had to agree—he wasn’t wrong. Compared to him, I definitely had room for improvement.

When Gu Yu came to pick me up after school, Liang Qing thoughtfully slipped some condoms into my pocket, saying, “Better to give a good man to a friend than let a stranger have him!”

Ever since Gu Yu found out that Liang Qing was a bottom, he had been much more relaxed around him. He used to worry that Liang Qing was a hidden “switch” who might steal me one day.

My life returned to the sweet, everyday routine I had with Gu Yu before the car accident.

Until someone exposed me as a homewrecker on the school’s confession wall.

People claimed they had seen Gu Yu with a girlfriend before, and others said they’d seen Gu Yu and me book a hotel room with a big bed.

Everyone accused me of knowingly becoming the third party in someone else’s relationship.

A story started spreading throughout the school. It went like this: Gu Yu, who was perfectly straight before, was seduced by me into becoming gay. He dumped his previous girlfriend to be with me, the so-called “third party.”

They even gave me a nickname: “Husband, say something!”

[Gu Yu is such a shame! So handsome, but he got stolen by a cunning bottom! And he had a girlfriend too!]

[Xia Huai is so shameless!]

[I don’t mind gay relationships, but stealing someone’s boyfriend is crossing the line!]

[How could Gu Yu be so handsome and so naive? So easy to trick!]

When Liang Qing heard the news, he immediately stormed into the dorm.

He was used to being the number one supporter of my relationship with Gu Yu.

“Xia Huai, is it true? Did you really force his ex-girlfriend away?”

I simply said, “No.”

Liang Qing went wild in the confession wall’s comment section, defending us.

[Impossible! My CP is real! I’ve seen it with my own eyes!]

But one voice couldn’t overpower the many, and soon, his comments were drowned in backlash.

After school, Liang Qing rushed to Gu Yu, fuming.

“Go check out our school’s confession wall! People are calling your husband a homewrecker!”

Gu Yu frowned as he scrolled through the posts for a while, then left a comment under his real name using his main account.

[There’s been a misunderstanding. I’ve only ever been with Xia Huai, never dated that girl.]

Some people still didn’t believe it, saying I was the third party who showed up later. Gu Yu replied to that.

[Xia Huai and I have known each other since we were kids. We even have photos of us in split pants. Want to see?]

His tone wasn’t exactly friendly. The person he replied to fell silent, no longer able to argue with the primary source.

The mood in the comment section began to shift.

[Maybe it’s true? Have any of you actually seen Gu Yu kiss that girl? They might’ve just been friends.]

[They were probably just friends. Otherwise, why would she be okay with seeing the third party? And even meet up with him?]

[Gu Yu himself defending his “wife” is kinda cute…]

[Honestly, I’m starting to ship them too. Don’t they look great together?]

Out of nowhere, an explosive comment appeared:

[Wait… did Gu Yu just say he could show us a photo of them in split pants?]

And suddenly, the entire comment section was flooded with:

[Show us the split pants photo.]

[Show us the split pants photo.]

[Show us the split pants photo.]

And just like that, the whole drama ended humorously.

Gu Yu hugged me tightly and gave me a kiss.

“It’s Friday. Want to stay out tonight?”

“By the way, after graduation, let’s bring Grandma over to live with us. I don’t feel comfortable leaving her alone.”

He stroked my head, and I nodded.

“Okay.”

That night, I knocked on Gu Yu’s bathroom door and joked with him.

“Bro, open up, it’s your sister-in-law.”

“You really need to be taught a lesson.”

“Hey, you’re the one who made up the sister-in-law thing.”
