Jun Hongbo clenched his fists tightly and said hoarsely, "We are really stupid. We should have seen that something happened to Xiao Nian, but we all thought he was just too tired. He even asked if he could change his mentor or leave Tianyi Valley... With Xiao Nian's personality, he must have been in so much pain and despair to say such things. It's ridiculous that we claim to be his brothers and owe him life-saving grace, but we didn't find anything."
In recent years, Jun Hongbo often woke up from his dreams in the middle of the night and saw scenes from the past, as well as the boy's pleasant but hoarse voice.
—Xiao Nian, what happened to your injuries? Why do you look so pale lately? No, I'll take you to see a doctor.
—Brother Jun, I am a doctor myself. It's okay. These injuries are from training. I am just too tired. It will be fine in a few days... It will be fine.
-
—Brother Jun, Brother Yun, in Tianyi Valley... is it allowed to change mentors
—Change the instructor? It shouldn't be allowed unless there are special circumstances, right? What happened to Xiao Nian
- I... Can I not be the disciple of Lord Doctor Lou? Can I change my teacher? Or, even if I leave Tianyi Valley, it doesn't matter.
—Xiao Nian, do you have a fever? Why are you talking nonsense? Doctor Lou is the most powerful and amiable doctor in Tianyi Valley, and he is also a master-level pharmacist. If you learn from him, your future will be limitless. Is it because you are too tired from refining medicine recently? So you want to back out? Why don't I talk to Doctor Lou and ask him to reduce your homework
—No... No, don't go! I'm fine, I... Nothing happened.
-
—Xiao Nian, why have you become increasingly pale recently? Is it really because practicing and studying medicine are too hard
—I'm fine, nothing's wrong... As long as, as long as you are all fine... I don't care about anything...

—Brother Jun, this pill is for you, Brother Yun, and Brother Bai.
—This… Is this a Xuan-level elixir? Is it the elixir made by Lou Yizun? But Xiao Nian, Xuan-level elixirs are rarely made even by Lou Yizun. They are extremely precious in the entire Tianyi Valley. How can you just give them to us? Keep them for yourself.
—No, I don't want it. They make me sick.
—Xiao Nian, what did you say
—Brother Jun, you need this medicine more than I do, so why don’t you just accept it? This is the only thing I can do for you now!
Time and again, Xiao Nian revealed various flaws in front of them and even sent out a distress signal, but they did not notice it.
Until the day of Su Nianzhang’s birthday.
Jun Hongbo and the other two wanted to give Su Nianzhang a surprise, so they carefully prepared gifts and secretly hid in Su Nianzhang's room, waiting for him to come back.
But who knew that it was not just Su Nianzhang who came, but Lou Shenming who came in with Su Nianzhang and revealed his true face the moment the door closed.
Lou Shenming pushed Su Nianzhang down on the bed, stripped off his clothes, and pressed on him.
Jun Hongbo and the other two were hiding in the dark and watching this scene in shock, until Lou Shenming's hand pinched Su Nianzhang's fair skin and Su Nianzhang let out a painful groan, then the three of them came to their senses and realized what had happened.
Looking at the purple and blue marks on Su Nianzhang's exposed skin, they were not bruises from training injuries, but clearly the shameful marks left by forced love. (To be continued)
