"Ah Xing!" Jiang Zongnian looked at him straight.

"Open your dog eyes and see clearly, I am Wen Han!" Wen Han was so angry that his eyes turned red. He wanted to grab him by the collar and beat him up, and his whole body was shaking with anger.

Jiang Zongnian felt a slight pain and tried his best to control his emotions. "You are Wen Han, so why did you run? It's only a few minutes' drive from the family compound to Fanghua Garden, but you ran to the airport and even went to great lengths to exchange with someone to get on the plane, determined to hide in Europe."

"Something happened to the Shadow Society, and I came back to deal with it. Who is hiding from you?"

Wen Han walked towards the living room, opened the window, and the wind blew in. The air flow swirled, and he felt his chest was less stuffy. He stood at the window with a sullen face, and subconsciously reached for a cigarette, but found nothing. He felt annoyed and his heart was heavy.

Jiang Zongnian stood up and walked to the living room, very close to him, but not too close. "When I was eight years old, I threw my brother into the deserted mountains. I did it on purpose. I tricked him into going on an outing and caught rabbits for him. I bought them for him in town. He happily followed me into the deserted mountains and fell into a hunter's trap. I cruelly left him there."

"Then you are really a beast!" Wen Han mocked without any hesitation. Throwing a five-year-old child to a deserted mountain to fend for himself, what else could he be but a beast? "You have murderous intentions at such a young age, Mr. Jiang, are you born a bad seed?"

This sentence was too heavy and too cruel. The little bit of blood color on Jiang Zongnan's face due to the hot porridge disappeared completely. Wen Han knew how to hurt him, and he did it as cruelly as possible.

"Yes, I seem to be born a bad person. I broke his legs on purpose and caused him to drown. I wished he would die, so I abandoned him in the deserted mountains. Everything is my fault." Jiang Zongnian was out of breath, his eyes slightly red. "After I walked out of the deserted mountains, I walked along the road for a long time, thinking in my heart, what if he encounters a wild animal? He is so stupid and clingy. He must be very scared alone in the deserted mountains. So, I regretted it. I ran back desperately to find him. I realized that my hatred should not be directed at innocent children. I saw my brother again at the foot of the mountain. He was sitting on a rock crying. I hated him and myself at the time. I was very impatient and did not carefully check his injuries. I did not have the patience to say a few words to him gently. I just carried him home."

Wen Han, "..."

Jian Yuxing had told him about this. He knew that Jiang Zongnan regretted his decision and came back to find him. In his dream, the young self was so convinced that his brother was just trying to scare him and would definitely come back to find him.

"So? You hurt someone, lost them, and then come back and say you regret it, so you're not a beast?" Wen Han sneered, "Jian Yuxing is really kind-hearted. You hurt him like this, but he still protects you like a brother. You're so lucky to have such a brother. No wonder you like him so much."

Every word Wen Han said hit Jiang Zongnian's sore spot.

"I didn't know that the person I brought back had been replaced." Jiang Zongnan was in pain and regret, but it was of no avail. He rarely regretted anything.

This was the thing he regretted most in his life, and it had been a thorn in his side for many years. He was also thankful that he remedied the problem in time and no harm was caused, and Ah Xing also forgave him.

But in fact... he was so wrong!

Wen Han laughed loudly. He felt sad, bitter, aggrieved, and angry. All the negative emotions were crowded in his chest, like magma ready to erupt. Those sharp emotions clamored to turn into sharp blades to pierce his chest and crush his heart, bones, and blood.

"So what?" Wen Han heard his own mocking voice. He used all his life's restraint to suppress those surging emotions and armed himself into a heartless person who didn't care about the past.

But in fact, he cares a lot!

"...I'm sorry!" Jiang Zongnian's voice was completely hoarse, tears welled up in his eyes, "Brother was wrong."

He didn't even dare to beg Wen Han for forgiveness.

"I don't need your apology, I just need you to get out!" Wen Han's chest rose and fell violently. Who wants to hear him say sorry? Who wants to hear him say sorry? "Get out of here, get out of my world, don't let me see you again!"

This was the first time Jiang Zongnian cried since he could remember, except for the time when his mother passed away. He didn't know what to do to get Wen Han's forgiveness. He felt like a thousand arrows piercing his heart as he listened to Wen Han's cold and fierce words.

Those who were so attached to him and liked him when they were little were lost by him.

He's so stupid.

With eyes blinded by hatred, why couldn't he tell the difference between Wen Han and Jian Yuxing back then? His younger brother had clearly fallen and was in a mess. He had clearly walked so far before losing his younger brother, so how come he appeared on the mountain road? His sense of direction was obviously so poor that he couldn't have walked out of that barren mountain by himself, so how could he think that the child on the roadside was his younger brother!

Wen Han looked at his tears, unmoved, "Jiang Zongnian, this is why you came to Europe, trying to explain that you regretted it and came back to find me. Are you trying to whitewash yourself like this to get my forgiveness?"

Jiang Zongnan shook his head. He was not asking for forgiveness. He didn't deserve it!

How could he deserve Wen Han's forgiveness?

Wen Han was not moved by his pain. What Jiang Zongnian was enduring now was not even one ten-thousandth of what he had endured back then. Why should he ask for his forgiveness? "Okay, I forgive you. Go away, go back to Jiangcheng. From now on, stay ten meters away from me wherever I am. Never appear in my sight, okay? President Jiang!"

"sorry!"

"I don't care. Don't you understand what I'm saying?" Wen Han was furious and punched him.

Jiang Zongnian was hit so hard that his sternum hurt. No matter how many punches he received, it could not make up for the warmth and coldness he felt back then. Time was cruel and the years passed quickly. He could not go back to the age of eight and could not stop himself from making a big mistake. What should he do?

"Get out!" Wen Han was so excited that he pushed him out of the door. "Get out!"

He slammed the door shut, propped his hands against the door, and sat dejectedly on the cold floor, covering his face with his hands, in agony and embarrassment. It was difficult to let go of such pain.

How can he let it go?

He even dreamed that the hand he stretched out at that time was not caught, and no one comforted his cries.

Brother, how can I forgive you!

Jiang Zongnan's pain was no less than Wen Han's. He also knew that Wen Han didn't want to see him. When he saw Wen Han's red eyes, Jiang Zongnan stood stiffly in front of the door.

The phone rang again and again, but he seemed not to hear it until it rang for the third time. It was Secretary Jiang on the other end. "Where have you been? It's been a few days, and there's been no news. You didn't even call home to let us know you're safe."

"Dad, I'm in France." Jiang Zongnian said in a hoarse voice.

“What are you doing in France?”

"Ah Xing... Wen Han is here." Jiang Zongnan had long lost his former eloquence and was only numb.

Secretary Jiang also heard that something was wrong with him, "What's wrong with you? Are you sick?"

"No."

"Bring Wen Han back as soon as possible."

Jiang Zongnian: "...Okay!"

He hung up the phone and stared blankly at the lake. How should he take Wen Han back?

Wenhan, what should your brother do to make you less sad?
