The weather in China was gradually getting hotter, but Xie Mu’s condition was no better than it was in winter. It was always rainy in the south, and as long as it rained, the man’s leg, which had been injured twice, felt akin to being stabbed by fine needles over and over again. Usually he could only lie in bed with a pale face, unable to move because of the pain.
If it was the former Xie Mu, this incomparably determined man would not show the slightest bit of weakness no matter how much pain he was in. He’s the type of person to ‘turn the other cheek’ before smiling and acting like nothing happened in order to avoid being looked down on by others.
But the current Xie Mu, because of the drug, his entire mind had been jumbled up. It seemed that he’d changed back to when he was a teenager, when even a little discomfort felt unbearable, not to mention this kind of heart-wrenching pain.
Almost every rainy day, Xie Mu would wake up in pain, before falling asleep with aching with exhaustion after being tortured for a whole day. Often, at this time, the object he sought for comfort was Xie Shi.
Xie Shi had never been treated like this before. His little uncle would take the initiative to dive into his arms, to kiss and seek comfort. Even if he was thinking of big brother, he didn’t care about being regarded as Xie Nanen.
He didn’t care about his identity being mistaken since his name was just a code name, even if Uncle recognized the wrong person because of the medicine, as long as he treated him like this for a lifetime, Xie Shi could also pretend for a lifetime.
But the reality was that the more docile Xie Mu became, the more admiring his eyes were, and the more harmonious the relationship between the two was, the more Xie Shi’s heartstrings collapsed.
He cherished and guarded his little uncle and took care of him carefully, like an evil dragon guarding his treasure. No one could steal Xie Mu from him, and no one dared.
However, Xie Mu’s body began to decline.
He gradually lost his ability to recognize others. Except for Xie Shi, he couldn’t remember anyone else. When it rained, the man who previously was still able to draw with a smiling face was now completely unable to get out of bed, and his slender and beautiful fingertips could no longer hold a brush. Instead, he gripped the bed sheets or the quilt in torment, and his beautiful lips rarely spoke.
When Xie Mu’s pain was at its worst, he would even burst into tears, and the ache was so painful that he didn’t even have the strength to make a sound, so he could only lie on the bed and cry weakly.
“Brother… I hurt so much, it hurts so much…”
It was raining again today, and Xie Mu was woken up by pain early in the morning. His eyes were red again, aggrieved and suffering, “Why did my leg become like this, brother, I’m really uncomfortable…”
Xie Shi skillfully stretched out his hand and gently rubbed his knee with the warmth of his palm, but even so, Xie Mu’s pain did not lessen.
“Brother, give me medicine, I’m in pain…”
The man asked while he was in a trance. Xie Shi looked at him in distress, and finally refused, “The doctor said you can’t take them any more. The painkillers have almost no effect now, if you continue, your body will…”

“Isn’t my body already at its worst?!”

“Xiaomu, can you bear it any longer, for my sake? Your body can no longer take medicine, and you will die if you go on like this…”
His hands were shaking, but the body in his arms was shaking more than he was.
Xie Shi knew from the beginning that his uncle’s legs would hurt, but he never thought that it would hurt like this.
He couldn’t feel that kind of pain, but he watched the resolute uncle in his memory suffering so much that he couldn’t breathe, couldn’t even move.
Uncle was in pain. He had been in pain since he woke up.
And every drop of his tears, like a hot soldering iron, was branded on Xie Shi’s tender heart.
Most of Uncle’s pain was caused by him.
He was now helplessly seeking his comfort, hoping that Xie Shi could help him, and trusted Xie Shi with all his heart, but he had no idea that these pains were all caused by Xie Shi.
The more Xie Mu relied on him, the more Xie Shi’s whole heart seemed to be fried in a frying pan.
It’s getting more and more painful, but it’s getting more and more unbearable.
“Uncle…”
Xie Shi murmured, lowering his head slightly before kissing the man’s pale lips. He docilely allowed him to move, his hand tightly clenching Xie Shi’s sleeve, and after the kiss, Xie Shi’s eyes was full of tenderness, but the voice of a timid man came near his ears, “Brother, can you give me medicine?”
“I feel like I’m going to be hurt to death…”
His voice was weak, and he could hear it very clearly. It was painful, Xie Shi felt uncomfortable in his heart, and he was obviously very distressed, but he still had to stop it.
“Xiaomu, you really can’t eat anymore, can I rub it for you?”
Xie Mu’s face turned pale again.
But in the end, he still nodded and lay quietly in Xie Shi’s arms, his body shaking intermittently from time to time because of the pain.
Xie Shi closed his eyes in pain and hugged the person in his arms tighter.
He finally got his little uncle.
But why, after he hurt him.
The sobbing in his arms gradually decreased until it disappeared. Xie Shi could feel that the man’s breathing was even, as if he had fallen asleep.
He breathed a sigh of relief, and patted Xie Mu’s back comfortably, the look in his eyes gradually becoming determined.
He must heal Uncle.
Even if he has to give everything.
Someone came from outside the door and made a gesture. Xie Shi’s eyes sank, nodding his head, he gently put down the person in his arms, and went out quietly.
Recently, the forces he took over from Xie Nanen seemed to be secretly planning something, and they began to refuse to accept discipline. If there were only one or two, it would be better to remove them, but now that they’re united, Xie Shi would inevitably be defeated if he takes them out one by one.
After discussing with his subordinates for a while, Xie Shi remembered the man in the room and felt uneasy in his heart, so he hurriedly gave them orders before returning to the room.
The closer he got to the door, the more inexplicably anxious Xie Shi’s heart became. By the end, his heart beat faster.
He pushed open the door, tense all over, and when he saw Xie Mu who was still sleeping with his back to him, he breathed a sigh of relief and relaxed.
Xie Shi stepped forward with soft eyes, ready to lie beside the man.
But what entered his eyes instead was a scarlet bloodstain creeping across the mattress.
Xie Mu had his eyes closed, a death-like pallor on his face, with one wrist bleeding and the other holding a fruit knife.
He couldn’t bear the pain day and night.
Choosing to end his life secretly.
And all of this was caused by Xie Shi.
