...so don't read it if you're not into shotacon. There is no maybe/kinda/sorta. And the kid is a kid - 9 yrs old (not an adult in a kid's body) with a 19 yr old photography student. There is no force used and the kid is clumsy, not abused at home or anything.
The story setting is a (maybe) haunted ruin of an old hotel. The older one is interested in photographing the contrasts between things - the ruin of the hotel, plants growing inside it. The age of the ruins and the youth of the child. The corruption vs the innocence. The child's cuteness vs his scrapes and bruises from rambling around in a wrecked old building and falling down a lot. Then you see him getting too attached to the kid.
It's not a comfortable story, probably because of the sweetness between them.
Didn't Qiu pretty much force himself on Uncle Pan and demand his attention and ask for sex and all of that? I know it was a while back, but the I don't recall Uncle Pan making any promises or swearing his love.
I'm not going to blame either one for being who they are - a naïve, spoiled kid and a cynical, guarded older man are going to have some issues before (or if) they can find common ground.
YuYang just told Qiu to be mature and he threw a tantrum. He's got a ways to go before Uncle Pan can trust him enough to open is heart.











I think some of the pages are out of order.
But even with that - Chang is insane now! What business does he have talking to McQueen! Go away and be miserable like you deserve!
