He was indeed stupid, but he was smarter than many people in the world. Yet from a young age, he was always considered the dumbest and slowest of their group. Did this give them the right to bully him like this
This was his elder brother, that was his sister. They had set up this trap for him; were they so eager to see him suffer and fall apart Even now, Mo Baixiao thinks back on that night with a chill in his bones. If the eldest hadn’t been steady, if he’d made even one move at that time, he would have lost his life. That scene replayed vividly before his eyes, causing him to have nightmares for many nights where he dreamed of the eldest covered in blood and staring at him, waking up in a cold sweat.
But this bone-chilling feeling was part of their scheme; they had deceived him. The eldest and sister had conspired together to deceive him. That gunshot had come from her, that bullet fired by her… Bai Xia’s knuckles cracked as he clenched his fists tightly. His eyes were shrouded in a cruel rage due to the extreme restraint required to hold himself back. He stared at the eldest with cold and sharp eyes, wishing to torture him slowly.
This was actually a ruse! After so many days of careful service, after all the efforts he had made to amuse him and cater to his needs, it turned out that everything had been an elaborate deception. Mo Baixiao’s anger boiled over; he truly felt heartbroken.
Betrayal, a betrayal dripping with blood. This was something these people cared about most and feared the most—being betrayed by those closest to them. This is precisely what he was feeling now.
He wanted nothing more than to let out a curse, having lost all sense of reason and caring little for understanding the situation fully. Thinking of the eldest’s feelings towards him, the purpose behind this injury, and his own acts of self-harm—under Bai Xia’s biased perspective, everything suddenly took on an unpleasant flavor. He had already judged the eldest guilty, even believing that he had acted deliberately.
Even injuring himself was deliberate.
"Don’t you think this method is despicable" Mo Baixiao spoke without thinking. When a person is angry, they don’t want to control themselves. This was someone close to him; all his anger was poured out towards him: "Don’t you find yourself shameless Have you ever asked for my consent, did I agree with what you’ve done Did I agree that you should be by my side What are you thinking Why do you have to act so cruelly toward both of us What do you gain from it Me..."
The moment he started speaking, it seemed there was no end in sight. Yet, Xiao Bai’s self-control was above his awareness; suddenly, he realized that if he said such sharp words, he and the Big Boss would never be able to reconcile.
He could say all these things, but what did he gain He fundamentally disliked him, he only liked men. He hated how this person used such methods to vie for his affection; no matter what he tried, Xiao Bai wouldn’t like him. Xiao Bai loved Ji Bing and wanted to marry Ji Bing. Therefore, please stop doing these things.
He couldn’t say those words unless he was prepared to lose the Big Boss completely.
All of them had a bottom line, once crossed, there would be no going back; regardless of how much the Big Boss loved him, if today Xiao Bai said those harsh things, their relationship wouldn't be that of relatives or brothers or even enemies—it would be completely severed. He would lose the Big Boss entirely.
He was very angry, but he couldn’t differentiate between his own anger, anger towards the Big Boss, and anger at others; he had to vent something. He could not say such sharp words to the Big Boss as too much resentment had rooted in him. Mo Xiao Bai punched through the bedroom’s tempered glass, shattering it with a clear sound, just like how his rage was overwhelming.
Murong Yao squinted at Mo Xiao Bai and waited for his next words. Miraculously, Mo Xiao Bai stopped talking; he had no right to say whatever came to mind. There were certain things that were too ambiguous, and he could not just blurt them out.
"I finally understand why you’ve always been indifferent towards me these years." Murong Yao spoke softly. Mo Xiao Bai looked at him in surprise; after all these years, the Big Boss had never once expressed his feelings—this was the first time...
Murong Yao suddenly felt extremely nervous, really nervous, like the tension of killing for the very first time, with a heart racing quickly.
Murong Yao slowly stood up; he was as tall as Mo Xiao Bai. But when standing, his aura completely overshadowed Xiao Bai’s, making him feel like a god.
Moyao wore an expressionless and even calm face. He stared into Mo Xiaobai's eyes without flinching, saying in a somber tone, "Everyone knows that I love you. Since the day I realized it, I tried my best to hide it, but later when hiding became impossible, I let things take their course. You know as well that I love you. You can never understand how important you are to me, and so I am willing to resort to such means to keep you by my side. Yet, I have always been puzzled why you can't fall in love with me. On the day we had a heart-to-heart talk, I thought it was because of your inferiority complex or because the distance between us felt too far, making you feel that I didn’t need you and thus unable to feel anything for me. It turns out I was wrong..."
Moxiaobai's heart pounded with shock. He couldn't understand why his anger had turned into a terrifying situation when he heard Moyao say those words.
Moyao’s voice sounded like still water, calm and straight as a line, "I was so wrong. None of that is an excuse for my actions. It turns out I can’t get into your heart because you can’t get into mine; you don’t understand me. After all these years of being brothers, fighting side by side, covering each other's backs thousands of miles away, laughing and playing together, it’s now clear to me that you never truly understood me, Xiao Bai. That is why you can't fall in love with me."
He curved his lips into a smile, almost making Moxiaobai pale. He suddenly felt不甘 (resentful) about how calm Moyao was being, as if he had the right to point out his fault for such an exposed truth. Could it be that he himself was wrong
Was he worried and afraid of having been mistaken Did he make a mistake by rejecting this method Should he have helplessly watched him fall at their feet without realizing it was part of a conspiracy What logic is there to this
Moxiaobai, who had lost his soul for a moment, seemed to regain it. He laughed coldly, "Boss, I never knew you were so good at arguing. Have all these things become my fault then You and Sister working together to bully me, hide from me, scheme against me—this is also my fault Did you ever consider how I feel Do you only care about yourselves without considering how I feel Don’t you think this is excessive"
Moyao suddenly clenched his fists. Ignoring the weakness of his body due to illness, he fiercely punched Moxiaobai with all his strength. The fist seemed to move in slow motion, striking Moxiaobai's chest and sending him crashing into a wall where an antique vase shattered on impact. Moyao’s second punch came fast, but Moxiaobai dodged it by turning his head, the blow narrowly missing his ear.
Moyao was injured now, and his speed wasn't what it used to be; he could have avoided the punches. But why didn’t he Because he never expected Moyao to hit him. Moxiaobai felt that even if everyone else in the world hit him, Moyao wouldn’t.
When they were in Myanmar, there was once a time when they had to run through the jungle with his mom as their sadistic instructor who knew of his fear of snakes and thus ordered Xu Nuo to send millions of snakes after them. Moyao also feared snakes but not to this extent; Moxiaobai's legs went limp in fear, seeing countless venomous snakes crawling on the ground.
He ran desperately, running and falling only to be pulled up by Mo Yao to keep running. A grenade tossed behind him could explode a pile of snake meat, which was terrifying. Back then, he was only ten years old and had been subjected to such rigorous training, suffering immensely. The human limit is to run out of the forest in one day, but it took him and Mo Yao fifteen hours without eating, drinking, sleeping, or resting until they finally emerged from the jungle, exhausted to the point where they collapsed by the roadside and didn't even want to move a finger.
Mo Yao was better off. They needed to get back before dark, so he carried him on the road. Mo Bai's entire body was covered in bruises from his exhaustion; he mumbled that it hurt terribly, feeling humiliated when recalling how pitifully he had cried then.
Mo Yao said, "It doesn't hurt, and you'll get through this eventually." Mo Bai sobbed, "When we go back, Mommy will definitely punish me because I was so scared that my legs turned to jelly. If it weren't for Mo Yao pulling me along, the snakes would have devoured me alive."
Mo Yao said, "I'll help you with your injuries."
Moe Bai pitifully replied, "Mommy will hit me, Daddy will hit me, and my sister will hit me too. I feel that my life is tragic." Mo Yao seriously responded, "I would never hit you."
Indeed, he kept his word and had never laid a hand on him.
Yet today, he did.
The rise and fall of Mo Yao's chest was intense; sweat beaded on his forehead. He didn't know where the pain came from as flames burned in his eyes. Suddenly, he grabbed Bai's collar with one hand, speaking each word distinctly: "I don't disregard your wishes I don't ignore your feelings Mo Ye Yan, everyone knows that I love you, but I've never said it out loud because I fear your disgust, I fear being discarded by you. Do you think my heart is so lowly that it would leave me on the roadside like trash if I see no value in you Or do you think I'd let myself become the dirt on the ground I fear your disgust, I fear your rejection, thus I never say anything... Think about all these years; have I ever coerced or forced you to do anything against your will If it were not for my consideration of you, you wouldn't be standing here today. If I didn't care, I would've told you how I feel long ago. If you don't accept me, fine, I'd break your legs and lock you up beside me, clip your wings so that you can never leave the castle. Or I could drug you and do as I please."re mixed.If she weren't Ye Feimo's wife and not the daughter-in-law of the Ye family, if the Ye family hadn’t spoken up on her behalf, she probably would have ruined herself beyond redemption in the e...
