Capítulo 2009: Chapter 2009: Because I Have a Brother Now
“Are you interested in hearing a story?” Dan Hanxi tilted his head, gazing at the night sky for a while before suddenly turning to look at Qin Youxuan beside him.
Without waiting for Qin Youxuan to answer, he began to speak on his own.
“I rember you don’t have any siblings, right?”
“Yes.”
She was an only child. She once thought she had a half-brother, but later found out that Jin Chenye had no relation to her.
“Just like you, until I was six, I always thought I was an only child. Until one day, a stranger woman brought a little boy to our house, and I learned for the first ti that I had a brother.”
“…”
Qin Youxuan was slightly taken aback, knowing the little boy he ntioned was Dan Hanjie, her palms tightening slightly.
“I grew up alone since childhood. My father was very busy, and my mother’s thoughts were all on him, focusing on helping him stabilize his position in the family. I spent most of my ti alone.”
Dan Hanxi’s voice was soft, very soft. If you listened closely, you could hear a hint of childhood loneliness.
“At that ti, nothing made happier than suddenly learning I had a brother.” Dan Hanxi’s dark eyes shimred, a watery light seeming to cover his eyes with a thin veil, as if lost in mory.
“I still rember running breathlessly to the gate and seeing that little boy who was only slightly taller than . At first glance, I looked disdainful, but deep down it felt like a little firework exploded. I approached him, just said one sentence, and before he could respond, I was dragged away by the butler.”
“…”
“That was the happiest day since I was born, because I had a brother.”
Children’s childhoods are pure; they don’t understand the complexities of the adult world, the deceit and scheming.
On that day, Dan Hanxi only knew that from then on he wouldn’t have to guard a cold villa alone, waiting endlessly for his parents to care.
He had a new playmate, his brother.
“But before I could enjoy it for long, he disappeared, along with the woman who brought him.” Dan Hanxi’s eyes dimd.
“Dan Hanjie’s mother died in the Dan Family, and Dan Hanjie was sent to a ntal institution by Dan Rong.” Qin Youxuan picked up his words, her bright cat-like eyes showing a hint of anger.
She was surprised that Dan Hanxi ever liked Dan Hanjie as a brother, but that didn’t change the Dan Family’s cruelty that destroyed Dan Hanjie.
“Yes.”
Dan Hanxi admitted softly, “The next day I went to ask mom for my brother, was beaten, and only then knew he was sent away, but didn’t know where.”
“…”
“For a while afterward, I would ask mom for my brother every day, and each ti be beaten. Gradually, I learned that the title ‘brother’ was taboo in the Dan Family…”
Dan Hanxi gently closed his eyes, his tone turning somber.
His hands, resting on the wheelchair, suddenly clenched.
“Much later, so long I thought I’d never see him again, he reappeared. But this ti, as a avenger.”
“…”
Qin Youxuan knew the first thing Dan Hanjie did when he returned to the Dan Family was to kill Ji Muyi, Dan Hanxi’s mother.
From then on, everything spiraled out of control.
Blood relatives turned into mortal enemies.
“It’s not Dan Hanjie’s fault. If anyone is to bla, it should be Dan Rong!” Almost instinctively, Qin Youxuan blurted out, defending Dan Hanjie as she looked into Dan Hanxi’s cold eyes.
