shou falls in love first
shou falls in love first
im sick of ml falls in love first, why can't the shou fall in love first??? Basically the mc has some sort of feelings towards ml and reciprocates to a certain degree, eg they don’t get stuck in denial or run away from ml.

beginning pulls on your heartstring, ml was nice to mc so mc fell in love first (doesn't realize it at first but he chased after ml anyways because he wanted ml to "Reward" him). Mc started chasing after ml. Bit of sad, self-deprecating mc, my heart hurts for him a lot every time he's like "wow he got new slippers cuz i wore the other ones". Overall, i liked it ... more>>

Hi Xiri~ thank you for your list!! I saw some new interesting novels I want to read now haha! AND omg I totally understand you! I'm at the point where I'm always a little disappointed/dissatisfied when I see 'ml falls in love first' tag (눈‸눈) (I like it more when shou is the proactive one! Bonus points when ML is the one who looks more beautiful and MC spoils and pampers him!)
Also if you want, you can check out:
'Tattoo' (an amazing one, slice of life with MC chasing after ML, also: the Manly Gay Couple Tag!)
'Paintings of terror' (this one is an unlimited flow~ but it's really good! MC likes ML first and doesn't shy away with showing his affection!)
And if you don't mind seme protags then:
'This Quick Transmigration Experience Is a Bit Sweet' (here's shou likes MC earlier and much, much more~)
Also a mutual liking in:
'SAYE' and 'Exclusive Rights to an Online Voice Actor' (。•̀ᴗ-)✧(。•̀ᴗ-)✧(。•̀ᴗ-)✧
Omg I'm glad someone understands me ( and understands whatever gibberish i wrote lol). It's so frustrating to see the mc get everything handed to him. After I finish my current novel, I'll definitely check out these novels. They sound really interesting
I haven't really delve into world hopping stuff before but thanks for your recs!!
The Villain Has Something to Say-a xianxia one I haven't read yet...Seizing Dreams also looks very promising.The Wife is First is,Love you till death,The White Cat’s Divine Scratching Post are with seme protagonist and MC falls first.
I’m Not Shouldering This Blame mutual attraction tho main focus isn't the relationship but plot
Peerless is also same less romance more plot and I really like it.tho shou takes a little time to accept but he's honest and always saying ML is really good looking as long as he keeps quiet lol(they're rivals as they have similar jobs with different departments.also helps each other to solve cases).they're always digging pits for each other and falling in the pit the other had dug for them.they also call each other names in mind.ML calls MC dead fox and MC calls ML Oleander(beautiful but poisonous flower)
Devil venerable also wants to know seme protag but shou falls first.I really love this one but not enough space to write summary.also recommend Sha qin tho haven't read it yet I'm getting good vibes
Finally another one with mutual love rival(? they were not really serious as they knew officer Tao is straight as steel and they actually see him as best friend and big brother)and attraction,Silent reading.I really love love love Silent Reading the plot is just amazing.MC is bis*xual and ML is openly Gay.MC wasn't really expecting a serious relationship(never had any official relationship with anyone)but after ML made clear that he's serious about their relationship and sleeping together then running I'm not having it he also got serious about it without dilly-dallying.both of them are really intelligent ML is a police captain and MC is a not so hard working second generation CEO who doesn't work seriously that often but a good student of psychology who has a talent for crime(yes not deduction but crime.officer Tao said that).can think from the criminal's POV and also says only screwed up people(himself)and his past is just *sniff sniff*) understands other screwed up people.I highly recommend it tho it's plot heavy and the cases are dark but mind blowing but it's worth of the time.one funny thing is another officer thought that MC is the top domineering CEO who is coercing the honest police officer shou(actually kinda true tho he is the shou and they were mutually coercing and flirting.he always topped before)
