After watching the video once, Nan Sheng felt stiff all over, as if she had been stuffed into an ice cave, feeling cold to the bone and heartbroken.
Tears streamed down her face as she wept silently, realizing that the truth was far more cruel than she had ever imagined.
And she finally understood why he always said he was dirty whenever she met him again.
Nan Sheng watched the video over and over again, and even zoomed in when she saw Yin Han being bullied. Several people surrounded him, punching and kicking him repeatedly.
Just as Nan Sheng was playing the video for the third time, Su Chuanlin stopped her: "Sheng Sheng, stop watching..."
Nan Sheng shook her head, tears streaming down her face. Su Chuanlin's eyes were slightly red. He reached out and pulled her into his arms, patting her back to comfort her.
"Ah... Waaah." Nan Sheng screamed desperately in Su Chuanlin's arms, feeling as if her heart had been ripped out again and then crushed under her feet.
She couldn't understand why there were such bad people in the world. The boy had no hatred for them at all, so why could they be so wicked?
Those twenty-one videos almost entirely documented how the boy spent that month.
Inside the prison, the boy squatted in a corner, his only movement being to look towards the prison gate.
She knew that at that moment, he hoped she would appear in the next second.
Day after day, she never came.
While the boy was obediently squatting in the corner, the men in the same room started touching him.
The boy was handsome with delicate features, a fair complexion, and clear eyes. The men surrounded him and forced him to take off his clothes. When he refused, they beat him.
Just like in Nan Sheng's dream, the boy fiercely protected his face, letting them hit him.
After they finished fighting, the boy's eyes remained fixed on the doorway, the expectation in his eyes gradually fading.
However, the men did not let the boy go; instead, they took off his clothes and groped him.
The boy fought back desperately, but there were six of them, and he was no match for them.
As they stripped the boy naked and tried to make him crawl on the ground like a dog and bark, one of the men looked at the boy's face and was about to touch it when the boy bit his hand tightly.
While they were all stunned, the boy used all his strength to break free from their grasp.
The video was too blurry for Nan Sheng to see clearly, and she didn't know what the boy's expression was like at the time. She thought he must have been in despair.
When those people touched his face, did he remember that she had once said that his face was beautiful, that she loved his face the most, and that he always protected his face?
After breaking free of his restraints, the boy beat the six men mercilessly. He didn't even look at them, grabbing anyone he could and hitting them, even slamming them against the wall repeatedly...
In the days that followed, perhaps those people were scared by the boy and became much more restrained, but they would still occasionally cause him trouble. Every day, the boy would only get to eat the leftovers from them.
The boy didn't care about any of this; he didn't seem to feel hungry and didn't move while the others were eating.
He sits in the same spot every day, head down, lost in thought.
But the moment Nan Sheng zoomed in on the video, she saw him pressing down hard on his abdomen, writhing in unbearable pain…
After watching the video on repeat for who knows how many times, Nan Sheng, feeling pain all over her body, immediately ran to the bathroom and started retching.
Startled, Su Chuanlin ran upstairs. Nan Sheng was lying on the toilet, vomiting. She couldn't vomit anything, but she still instinctively pressed her hand to her throat.
“Sheng Sheng…”
Su Chuanlin stared at her blankly, stiffly moving his legs, wanting to pick her up.
Nan Sheng slumped to the floor, looking helplessly at Su Chuanlin: "Brother... why did he forgive me? I'd rather he hadn't forgiven me... that way I... would have gotten him too easily, sob sob..."
Su Chuanlin sighed softly, squatted down and wiped away Nan Sheng's tears: "Sheng Bao, he has never hated you, so how can he forgive you? Don't cry, okay? He doesn't want you to know those unpleasant things, otherwise when he sees your swollen eyes, he will feel heartache again. Can you bear to make him feel pain?"
...
Su Chuanlin stood at the door of the study for an unknown amount of time, looking at the still tightly closed door, and couldn't help but worry.
Nan Sheng just said she wanted to be alone for a while and wouldn't be going back to Beicheng for the time being. He came out, but Nan Sheng's emotions are unstable right now, so he didn't dare leave her alone inside. Therefore, he stood at the door waiting.
He also greeted the Su family members, as well as his aunt and uncle.
Nan Lingtian and Yang Silin originally wanted to comfort Nan Sheng, but Su Chuanlin stopped them, thinking that Nan Sheng might not want so many people to see.
Finally, after working from morning till night, Su Chuanlin's legs were almost numb when the door to the study opened.
Nan Sheng's face was still streaked with tears, her long eyelashes were wet, and her nose was red, showing how heartbroken she had just been crying.
Su Chuanlin walked up, but before he could speak, he heard Nan Sheng's cold voice: "Brother, where are they?"
Even though Nan Sheng didn't specify who she was referring to, Su Chuanlin knew who she was referring to.
Before he chose to tell her, he had already investigated everything for him; he was just waiting for her to resolve the issue herself.
Su Chuanlin knew this from the incident with Lu Zhicheng; he knew how important Nan Sheng considered Yin Han.
"Three are still in prison, and three have already been released."
