I Pretend to Be Good, You Pretend to Be Pure Novel

During freshman year military training, the charismatic and popular Ran Ningmu, known for his attractive appearance and dark charm, quickly catches the eye of many senior students. Meanwhile, the refreshing and pure-looking An Youxi is also present, documenting the training events. When their paths cross, Ran Ningmu is drawn to An Youxi's cuteness, desiring a relationship, while An Youxi is equally captivated, wishing to be desired by Ran Ningmu. Their relationship progresses rapidly, but misunderstandings arise. Ran Ningmu believes An Youxi prefers a docile partner and hides his "bad boy" tendencies, while An Youxi, thinking Ran Ningmu favors innocence, conceals his own vast collection of adult content and a notorious online persona. Ran Ningmu's true nature includes drinking, fighting, dyed hair, tattoos, unconventional fashion, and underground street racing. An Youxi's secrets involve extensive personal media archives and a reputation as a skilled voice actor in the online community. The deception unravels when Ran Ningmu unexpectedly walks in on An Youxi during a live dubbing session. In his shock, An Youxi accidentally reveals the intense voice of his male co-star, exposing his hidden world. This leads to a candid conversation where they acknowledge their true selves: Ran Ningmu as the "wolfdog" and An Youxi as the "seductive shou." Ran Ningmu expresses regret over the prolonged pretense, realizing he could have been his authentic self sooner if he'd known An Youxi preferred a "wild type."
