i reread it from the beginning and idk... their progression has always been like that, definitely not comrades or bros but partners who love eachother.
they don't express it as aggressively as mo and he tian since they're much more subtle and not big into pda... even in chapter 476 they go around a corner away from the public so be romantic in private
They don't feel like comrades or bros at all. They're literally lovers with how they act I just don't know why the the author doesn't make it clear like Mo and He case
Yeah... Just to clear up misunderstandings I just meant that why is that they're relationship is still vague unlike brother mo's and he tian's like compared to theirs, xixi and jian yi's relationship is more unclear
yeah idk if i really feel the same, i can remember two times they kiss, in the beginning they have a really cute moment where jian yi tells zhangxi he likes him and he replies with 'i know.'
they have many emotional moments, and zhangxi is always drops everything to save or help jian yi. honestly their storyline peaked when jian yi learns that his father had died and zhangxi is there to comfort him- and now their stories are cute and funny moments.
maybe you should reread if you feel like it's lacking
Really? Maybe I do need a reread... Thanks for the reminder (・∀・)
Jian Yi & Zhan Zengxi are too wholesome & pure for this world, & that's ignoring the 200 times Yi has dry-humped Zhengxi's leg, grabbed his ass, removed his pants, or pinned him to a wall or bed.
Zeng-Xi has softened. He rarely hits Jian Yi for anything anymore, he blushes whenJian Yi is naked or the sexy photo he did for band club, he has plans to buy an apartment for Jian Yi & himself that he wants to pay for by himself, he gave Jian Yi a ring for Valentines day, they frequently sleep in the same bed albiet clothed, & he rarely acts like a tsundere when Jian Yi flirts with him. He generally just does whatever Jian Yi wants without question while acting like a knight protecting a very crass & impish princess. Legit thinking Zheng-Xi is on the asexual spectrum & trying to build up the courage to commit physically, or he's saving himself for the honeymoon.
I'll re read guyzz I'm sorry... Maybe the author was just focusing more on brother mo and he tian right now and I just wasn't getting enough of xixi and jian yi. Sorry guyzzz I'll just go back to the old chapters ಥ‿ಥ
Good luck, I started rereading the series a week ago & am only half way through.
Oh yeah, I forgot that Jian Yi actually managed to turn Zeng-Xi on once by crossdressing. We already know he's going to end up getting a part time job in a maid uniform in the future, so Jian Yi might catch on to Zeng-Xi's kink & use it against him.
Damn it... The author's so cruel... Why give us those snippets/merch of xixi and jian yi as a couple if after all this time there's still no progress? Like... It's not even edging cuz they really just feel like they're acquaintances or comrades or bros (ノಠ益ಠ)ノ彡┻━┻ರ╭╮ರ
