I'm guessing there is no actual romance in this?

What do you mean... how is this not romance? Read the last 3 chapters if you want a spoiler lol

I didn't say it wasn't romance. I asked. I haven't read it yet. I don't wanna read all the chapters only to find out that there is only friendship (like Free!, for example).

Imagine thumbing down a legit question...

yes there is romance in it! i know manhuas like 19 days have almost no real plot or direction of romance but this one does. it's an amazing read and the way they develop feelings for each other is natural and beautiful. i hope you read this one, it's my favorite!

Yeah I asked cause it's a Chinese manhua (I think) and they tend to be careful about gay stuff. I once started reading Lookism (Korean) and realised after like 50 chapters that I'd wasted my time haha. I'll take your word that it's good and give it a shot. :)

I didn't do that though? What made you think i downvoted it

Nah, as long as it says yaoi or shounen ai in genre, it's gauranteed to have romance, this is more of a shounen ai

I didn't write it as a reply to you, but because you were the only commenter, Mangago made it into a reply anyway I guess.

I know that but there are a lot of miscategorised things on here. 19 Days, which admittedly I've not read in about a year, was categorised as shounen ai but outside one early chapter there wasn't any romance.
