CompletedXiao Zhizhi feels like he's been having bad luck lately.
As a new graduate student, he hasn't even gotten to know his students' faces, but he's already familiar with the hospital.
The reason? His students are incredibly accident-prone.
From pulling a muscle while changing pants to getting injured in a fight with a dog over food, dislocating a jaw while yawning, and even suffering from oxygen deprivation while playing games—not to mention twisting a knee in the bathroom.
But what he can't accept is—
Why is the person he rejected for his cousin's blind date here?!

In the hospital, a young man in a white coat and silver-rimmed glasses writes a few lines with a fountain pen, the lenses reflecting a cold gleam.
The next second, he looks up, spinning the medical record in his long fingers and handing it over, his eyes melting like glaciers: "All done, Professor Xiao. Take your student to pay the bill."
"And don't forget our agreement."
"One cup of milk tea, I won't forget."
Xiao Zhizhi waves his hand, not wanting to spend another moment with this fox-like smile.
Behind him, Xu Ze watches his retreating figure, satisfiedly narrowing his fox-like eyes. He pushes his glasses up and continues his work.
So tiring.
But,
If Professor Xiao could visit him every day—
He wouldn't mind being a bit more tired.

Months later, rumors spread like wildfire in the campus gossip group about a handsome doctor from the neighboring hospital coming to teach an elective course.
An ordinary handsome face can only hold attention for three minutes, but a handsome face with a story? That's different.
Especially when the other person in the story is their own teaching assistant, Professor Xiao, who is rumored to have a close relationship with the doctor.
Walking down the campus street, Xiao Zhizhi chuckles at the 99+ messages in the group chat. He locks his screen but catches a familiar reflection in the black mirror—a figure approaching him.
He puts away his phone and quickens his pace, a faint smile tugging at his lips as he hears the footsteps getting closer.
Xiao Zhizhi: Don't get me wrong, we're just friends.
Xu Ze: Mm-hmm, just friends.

Follow-up story: "Strange Invasion: The Mission to Chase and Kill My Boyfriend"
What do you do when you wake up to find the world invaded by strange phenomena and your boyfriend missing?
Yue Siyan's answer: Kill your way through.
But what's with these tentacles constantly wrapping around him?
**
As the investigation deepens, Yue Siyan discovers that his boyfriend... might not be human!
He has grown tentacles, some soft and cute, others smooth and tender, always trying to invade peculiar places.
Yue Siyan chops them off one by one, only to find—
They become even more enthusiastic, even climbing through windows at night to find him.
Yue Siyan: ...
This guy's brain is messed up.
**
Finally, in the land of the gods, he sees Qi Lüwan again.
Crimson tentacles dance behind him, seemingly joyful at the god's rebirth.
Yue Siyan meets Qi Lüwan's gaze.
Dark red eyes burn with ancient hatred and resentment, but Yue Siyan fearlessly advances.
Cold, smooth tentacles wrap around his waist, leaving trails of water. Simultaneously, a soft kiss lands on his ear.
"Come to me, and then—"
"Kill me."
Yue Siyan hears his own laughter and the words—
"With pleasure."
