#sun boxiang

haoting is probably gonna be boxiang’s best man. for zhigang’s best man, i don’t really know but what i do know is that zhigang will be insistent to have a seat front row in the wedding and reception. an empty one for a boy who was alone but strong. a boy he treated as family because his own pushed him away. he’s gonna dedicate a seat for xigu because his little brother needs to be a part of his (and sunbo’s) big day.

favourite moments

okay buckle your seat belts because this fucking episode gave us so many good moments!!

let’s start with the cutest siblings bc that was so sweet. just haoting questioning if he’s a good person and the sister reassuring him that he is

also, can we appreciate that haoting got second place just for his sister. if he really loves someone, boy can achieve anything

and real quick, i wanna talk about haoting breaking up with siyu. while, yes, it wasn’t the greatest break up and haoting could’ve been more gentle, i really like how straight forward he was. he left no chances for misunderstandings.

n e ways, let’s move on to love sick duo: part one. haoting and boxiang sitting on some stairs drinking beer(?) and being dramatic together is everything

but it somehow turned on haoting’s aggressive wingman mode. his bitch ass really went in zhigang’s store and did ALL that. like all of us, i did not like haoting yelling and causing a commotion but man did i love his opening sentence which was basically “MY FRIEND MAY BE A VIRGIN BUT DAMN DOES HE LOVE YOU”

bright side to all of this yelling though is at least, zhigang and boxiang got together!! that hug was really cute and i especially love the line “if you don’t want to love anymore, that’s fine. just let me love you.” like zhigang has been so hurt because he has always been the one reaching out to his ex partners but this time boxiang is reaching back for him and meeting him in the middle bitch i was so emotional

haoting walking xigu home looking like a kicked puppy and the way that xigu said “i’m home” idk why but i found that so cute???

haoting apologizing and explaining himself to xigu. i really like how they’re not glossing over the fact that haoting did mess up and he’s saying sorry for it not because he likes xigu but because he truly feels sorry

(also he confessed for the 53673 time and it definitely ain’t his last time lol)

and the moment we were all waiting for: THE FIRST KISS. i think i cried. i definitely cried. it was so fucking soft. and xigu clOSED HIS EYES!!

also this camera shot is so pretty?

and bitch don’t even get me started on the way haoting has to bend down to kiss xigu

“i’ve never liked a guy before but i’m very sure i like you.” bl male leads are shaking

then haoting bolts once again after the kiss and the confession lmao. this mans really just outside the door breathing heavy as fuck because his adrenaline from kissing xigu is subsiding. my god, he is so whipped for xigu

now, we back in school and boxiang is staring at zhigang pics because honestly who wouldn’t. zhigang is hella hot. but this time he’s doing the staring as zhigang’s boyfriend and the boy squad (minus xia de, plus new guy and cabbage pillow guy) staring at him doing all that made me cackle

okAY, can we talk about xia de for a second because he definitely has a crush or an interest on xigu. lowkey, this is heartbreaking but he did look very soft staring at xigu which, you know, who wouldn’t be soft while staring at xigu?

haoting and his feed xigu agenda that i wholeheartedly support with every bone in my body 

“it breaks my heart to see you hungry”

also @ haoting not being afraid to be seen with xigu unlike most ‘popular’ male lead characters

haoting nagging xigu about eating enough especially during the exam season as if his bitch ass cares about the exam

haoting legit barking and growling and pretending to be angry and making xigu laugh (side note: xigu’s smile is so goddamn cute like boi stop attacking me with your smiles and uwu-ness)

“YES, it was worth it!” like he knew he looked ridiculous but nothing is too much if it makes xigu laugh

love sick duo: part two but this time they’re actually happy

i laughed so hard when boxiang let it slip that he confronted xigu and for a second haoting was like bitch i will cut you if you hurt my mans when did you do it but then boxiang says that he did it during the time the entire squad was bothering xigu and haoting got quiet becuase he was the number one person bothering xigu that time

also another thing that i really love about this scene is when haoting says that he ‘doesn’t like guys. only likes xigu’ boxiang immediately tells him that xigu IS a guy. like they really subtley called out all those bl shows just like that huh.

EPISODE HIGHLIGHT: xiade, gaochun and new guy (somebody name this boy) smuggling bl manga and reading it for friendship™ 

but real talk, how fucking cute are they? they literally did this so that boxiang will stay friends with them like sure the gesture is misguided and has crackhead energy but it’s for such a pure reason

“it’s so big” “what’s so big” “fingers are so big. what are you thinking about? scared me”

haoting insisting on walking xigu home

“i’m a guy” “so you think those cases on tv don’t include guys?” bitch i literally love this show so much. they really not trying to force that girlfriend/boyfriend characterization on a (future) gay couple. they’re both guys and haoting just wants to protect xigu. it’s as simple as that.

also i was contemplating on whether to put this here because i don’t know if i was cringing or laughing but haoting is so fucking eXtRA with that weird sidekick-of-a-disney-villain voice and the slight licking wHAT was he trying to do

okay, let’s talk about the most precious fucking moment in this entire episode even if it exuded crackhead energy: the squad playing basketball and gaochun and xiaen winking and gesturing at each other because they planned to talk to boxiang + haoting noticing them

this entire squad is so loyal to each other and they really do love each other like brothers

and @ how they said that they are just trying to understand boxiang further and to not take offence because they truly are being genuine

“me too” “what?” “i like guys” oH MY GOD HAOTING JUST DROPPING THAT BOMB AT THEM and boxiang laughing at their reactions

favourite moments

this episode was a roller coaster ride and i have sO much to talk about

so umm... lusun fucked in the gym bathroom. i don’t know what else to say lmao

boxiang whispering i love you was good™

n e ways, we continue on with the bike date that kinda turned into a stargazing date which is fine with me (sorry the pic is blurry af my internet is dying)

they stopped at an overlooking of the city and haoting sets up these lights and honestly i cry because when will i ever have a good bf like that

then they start talking and xigu shares how he likes to talk to the stars because he thinks his parents are there somewhere with the stars and it’s so private and intimate

they’ve come so far from being enemies to becoming two people who trust each other so much i wANT TO CRY

then he asks haoting if he believes and haoting holds his hands and says “i believe you” and my heart just bursts with joy

xigu: i’m gonna study the stars” haoting: that’s zoology (lmao dw guys he’s still a dumbass)

haoting saying he wants to work hard and study in the same department as xigu

surprise cheek kiss + another soft kiss

also this shot of them looking at the stars together is so fucking beautiful and perfect. we all know the confrontation with haoting’s parents later in the episode is gonna happen and this scene was basically them telling xigu’s parents about them (the history writers went off on this scene and gave us this amazing symbolism)

yooo haoting got second place in school!! i can’t believe xianggu are really THAT couple that are respectively the 1st and 2nd place. what a power couple.

haoting’s thank you speech summed up: “yu xigu”

lmao xigu walked in on the squad trying to strip boxiang but he doesn’t even look shocked

then he questions them and haoting is all like “yeah! wtf are you guys doing?” as if he wasn’t the one who told the squad to start stripping boxiang eye-

the look of betrayal

and ya’ll!! xigu and and haoting are the type of couple that holds hands and ditches their friends hahahaha

okay ya’ll know what happens next so let’s break it down to my favourite little moments even though the whole thing is amazing in it’s own right (get ready for A LOT of screenshots)

the FIRST thing that xigu does when haoting sits on top of him is caress haoting’s thigh and leave his hand on haoting’s waist aaaaAAAAHHH

“ i really wanted to kiss you just know.” he made his intentions clear and gave xigu a moment to decide

the way xigu looked up and down at him before kissing haoting first made me SCREAM tF (seriously though, i love that in their very first ‘intense’ kiss, xigu was the one to kiss first)

ya’ll the smiles in between the kisses *chef’s kiss*

xigu sitting up while haoting sits on his lap as they make out?? sign me tf up

ya’ll can you believe haoting is a power bottom and xigu is a soft top (if u disagree fight me) (jk i’m weak)

the way haoting stopped and pulled away to let xigu know with his eyes that he wanted to do more and then xigu started unbuttoning haoting’s shirt

xigu feeling up haoting’s pecs. what a mood.

THIS SCREENSHOT IS GOLD and is haoting’s mom’s pov lmao + the shoulderrrr

the way haoting jumped on the defense for xigu when his dad was busy screaming

also haoting being mad about his dad saying that liking boys is shameless and not normal. thAT’S MY BABY.

i interrupt the angsty bullet points to let ya’ll know that when boxiang’s cousin was spraying zhigang with his water bottle, i spent a good five minutes giggling about it

he hella salty that they fucked in his gym’s bathroom and honestly if i were him, i would be salty too

also him, showing up at zhigang’s store, to give condoms hahahHAHAHA

and when a customer arrived, zhigang hid the condoms so fucking fast lol

now let’s commence with the angst

it’s not really a fav moment per say as it did make me cry so bad (i always say i’m crying but this time, i had legit tears streaming down my face) but can we talk about haoting and how amazing he is and how in love he really is

“call out and stop him and tell him ‘don’t be scared, i’m right here.’ but i couldn’t” this line really hit me and the way his voice cracked made my heart crack

and the sister just wiping his tears and being there for him. like she knew she couldn’t really fix the problem as it’s obviously not up to her so instead she sat there and listened to him and made sure that he knew someone was on his side ugh they really are sibling goals

haoting hesitating on saying “i can say i don’t love him” because he does love him and saying he doesn’t is hard

also him breaking down at the thought of xigu giving up on them

can i just point out that song weien’s performance in this was so good and hella heartbreaking

and of course, last but not the least, xigu showing up at haoting’s house to declare that he is not giving up on them. i talked about this scene on this post and shared my kind of analysis
