Loveholic’s small business owner, Zhou You, falls in love with Xia Shengguang, a high school graduate who comes to work at his dessert shop. Xia Shengguang’s face looks so pure and adorable.
Secretly preparing a birthday gift for the boy he loves, Zhou You copies Shakespeare’s love poem:
*Shall I compare thee to a summer’s day?*
He sends Xia Shengguang cakes for half the summer. Then, after finishing the cake and wiping his mouth, Xia Shengguang says to him:
“Stop looking at me with those perverted eyes, you damn creep.”
“You’re just a simp, you know that?”
“You choose to obsess over me on your own—why should I have to respond?”
Zhou You’s heart is shattered. Too scared to "simp" anymore.
Two days later, Xia Shengguang comes looking for him again.
Zhou You says awkwardly, “Didn’t we agree to cut ties? You told me to stop simping for you.”
Xia Shengguang retorts shamelessly, “I never told you to stop simping. That was all you. Now get over here.”
...Huh? So simping is allowed? Then he’ll keep doing it.

*Both inexperienced. The gong has had crushes before—avoid if this bothers you.
