In Si Jiu's impression, all his father left him was his back.

When he was very young, he lived with a nanny.

The nanny was very old, with wrinkles on her face so deep that they could almost crush a fly.

But Mammy was very kind to him.

Although Si Jiu is the Marquis's child, he is just a bastard born to a prostitute.

The Marquis didn't want to take him back, but because the brothel girl risked her life, the infant Si Jiu had a chance of survival.

But how could she know.

She thought that if Si Jiu went to be with his biological father, he could enjoy the childhood that other children should have.

But the Marquis' Mansion was the beginning of Si Jiu's tragic life.

The marquis has many concubines.

The concubine gave birth to many more children.

Until the marquis's mansion was ransacked, Si Jiu still couldn't fully recognize which was which.

The Marquis had never hugged him or coaxed him.

Even when other brothers bullied him, he had no ability to fight back.

Nanny is old and can no longer protect him.

Even if he resisted, he would only be beaten more severely.

Over time, Si Jiu developed the habit of keeping everything in his heart and never speaking it out easily.

Because he knew that even if he told it out loud, no one would come to help him.

Until that time.

The Marquis's Mansion is going to hold a birthday banquet for the Marquis.

Si Jiu was lucky enough to get a piece of braised pork in the backyard.

He was carefully placing the braised pork in his arms, preparing to bring it to the nanny to eat.

The brothers who bullied him before are here again.

During the pushing and shoving, the braised pork in Si Jiu's arms fell to the ground.

He tried desperately to pick up the braised pork and wipe it clean.

Mammy is so sick that she can't get out of bed. She needs this piece of braised pork to replenish her body.

But this was the first time in a long time that Si Jiu reacted when they beat him.

This made the kids even more excited.

People who struggle are interesting.

They snatched the braised pork away.

They were divided into several teams.

Some people held Si Jiu's arms, preventing him from moving.

Another group of people fed the braised pork to dogs.

Si Jiu just watched the precious, almost unavailable braised pork enter the dog's stomach.

Finally he couldn't bear it anymore.

He tried frantically to pull his arm free.

He tried to attack them using both his hands and feet.

But they were so numerous and powerful that he could not resist them at all.

They even locked him up in a small dark room.

The Marquis’ birthday banquet lasted for three days, and Si Jiu was imprisoned there for three days.

For three days, there was no water and no food.

There was not even light.

I don’t know what’s happened to the sickbed nanny.

Si Jiu couldn't get out at all.

At first he shouted and called for help, but no one responded.

Occasionally, when he heard a few footsteps approaching here, just when he thought he was rescued, the footsteps would quickly disappear.

After all, he is just a bastard who can be bullied by anyone.

No one dared to go against others for saving him.

Si Jiu tried to knock on the door and break the windows himself.

The little hands were covered with scars.

But to no avail.

The darkness swallowed him up layer by layer like a dumb beast.

Si Jiu developed a high fever and started talking nonsense.

How he wished that someone could come and save him at this moment.

Finally, the man showed up.

When Wen Bai attended the birthday banquet on the third day, he thought of going for a walk in the woods behind the Marquis' Mansion.

But he accidentally walked outside Si Jiu's small dark room.

Si Jiu heard Wen Bai's voice while he was drowsy.

He struggled, using up his last bit of strength to tap against the wall.

Wen Bai heard it.

She knew there was someone inside.

She has practiced martial arts.

She kicked the door open.

The last scene Si Jiu saw before he fell into coma was Wen Bai and Guang coming in together.

From then on, Wen Bai became the only light in his world.
