To avoid accepting two simultaneous confessions from Xia Yiyi and Qiu Mang, Tang Tang told them he wasn't into girls. Due to the two girls' unwillingness to back down, they told Tang Tang that he must show them evidence that this was true. To cover up his own lies, Tang Tang decided to seek help from his friend Chen Qingye so they could put on an act to help Tang Tang get away from the unwanted confessions. Though constantly showing restraint, Chen Qingye always ended up accepting Tang Tang's propositions.

Read the full take
To avoid accepting two simultaneous confessions from Xia Yiyi and Qiu Mang, Tang Tang told them he was not into girls. Due to the two girls' determination, the lie quickly becomes a tangle of expectations and complications. That is a funny, clever hook, and the series builds its comedy on what happens when a small lie grows.The strength is the comedy. The misunderstandings are fun to follow, and the full-colour school life feels bright. Tang Tang's panicked attempts to manage the lie are amusing.The weaknesses are clear. The misunderstanding can stretch thin over a long run, and the romance develops slowly. Readers wanting a deeper romance may find it light.Recommended for fans of playful, tangled school comedies. Expect a fun, lightly chaotic read.
