What Are Your Tastes?

Characters:

• Zhou Yanchuan (32) x Lu Yunchu (27)

Description:

Zhou Yanchuan, an outwardly rough and straightforward yet inwardly simple-minded and artistically blind tycoon (the top), and Lu Yunchu, an eccentric and independent-minded beautiful artist (the bottom).

Lu Yunchu, a wealthy young master, was disowned by his family after coming out as gay. He moved to another city, started a sculpture studio, overcame initial hardships, and eventually met a major client.

Confident in his abilities, Lu Yunchu was taken aback to discover that his new client was a rich man who knew nothing about art and loved to meddle.

Lu: “What are your tastes?”

Zhou: “The taste that made me place an order with you.”

Lu: “…”

Inner thoughts of Lu: (You idiot!)

Inner thoughts of Zhou: (If you have the guts, don’t take my order.)

However, after some time, they became familiar with each other.

Lu: “Do you mind having gay people around you?”

Zhou: “You don’t like me, so why should I mind?”

Lu: “What if I do like you?”

Zhou: “You like me?”

Lu: “In your dreams.”

Zhou: “Well, that’s what you think.”

After some more time.

Lu: “Zhou Yanchuan, do you like me even a little?”

Zhou: “I think… more than just a little.”

Notes:

1. The top had an ex-girlfriend, and the bottom had an ex-boyfriend. Neither are virgins. Both have suitors who are not involved romantically.
2. The story is set in an alternate urban background, not realistic or professional. Bugs may occur; do not compare it to reality. It’s likely to be both cliché and shallow.
3. It’s a mutual attraction, with the top realizing his feelings later. Once he does, his feelings are strong.
4. Contains a small amount of GL subplot: Ning Ruowei & An Yuan (no dominant-submissive dynamics).
