Do not get hurt again.

"When I was in a boot camp, I often got injured during field combat."

"…" The younger boy felt a stab of pain in his heart.

His heart ached for his brother.

"Well, don't imagine things. I'm used to it." Mu Yichen laughed lightly and reached to rub his fringe in comfort.

Youyou grabbed his hand unhappily. "Promise me."

"Mm?"

"Don't get hurt again." He stared into his eyes as he enunciated.

His words left Mu Yichen a little surprised.

He could see the undisguised pain in the other's eyes.

His heart felt warm.

"All right, I promise!"

"Mm!"

Youyou leaned against the rough stone wall again. His back felt very uncomfortable against the uneven stones. Only after he had taken the effort to adjust the angle did he feel a little better.

Feeling a little tired, he decided to make use of this time to rest for a while.

When he closed his eyes, he heard someone standing up.
