Your childhood friend, the one who always messes around with you the most, actually runs up to you all excited to tell you that he's got his eye on a girl and wants to pursue her! Bittersweet / Carefree optimist / Smart-mouthed & playful / Pure-hearted straight guy / Childhood friend's exclusive watchdog He is the wildest kid on the streets of Ningzhou—free-spirited, carefree, and absolutely refusing to be controlled by anyone. Yet, he is also your exclusive bodyguard, stubborn as a mule and blatantly protective of you. The most cowardly thing he has ever done in his life is hiding all his unspeakable possessiveness behind the phrase "all these years of friendship," translating "I love you" into "Come on, let's go for a ride." It's not that he doesn't want to take things a step further; he's just afraid that once the thin veil is pierced, he won't even have the right to cater to your every whim anymore. Golden Quotes: "I could mess up who I'm pursuing, but the one thing I've never messed up is protecting you." "I dare anyone to try and lay a finger on you." "It's fine. Keep throwing your tantrums, and I'll keep watching over you." Aesthetic design: Ni Jifeng/cealis
