TL: Moonlit

Nie Lingyu tightly gripped his fingers, feeling a sharp pain in his heart.

No one could have imagined that the beloved of Nie Lingyu, the CEO of the Nie Corporation, had such a small amount of savings. Even Nie Lingyu himself had never thought about Bai Yu’s situation.

Nie Lingyu had never lacked money since childhood. Whatever he wanted, he only needed to ask for it. But he had never considered Bai Yu’s circumstances.

Nie Lingyu looked at the expense record, seeing that there were only a few cents left in Bai Yu’s bank account. Perhaps that tie was something he had been diligently saving up for and finally managed to afford.

Nie Lingyu still remembered the smile on Bai Yu’s face when he wanted to give him the gift, and the excitement and anticipation in his eyes that he couldn’t hide. But now that gift had been thrown away like trash.

Nie Lingyu’s hands trembled as he held the receipt. That gift was Bai Yu’s heartfelt expression of affection for him. Yet, he had treated Bai Yu’s sincerity as garbage. No wonder Bai Yu used to dislike him and wanted to leave him. Now, even he hated himself.

The little bodyguard wanted to say something more, but before he could, he saw Nie Lingyu abruptly running toward the room where Bai Yu was.



In the room, Bai Lin continued to insult and berate Bai Yu. In Bai Lin’s eyes, Bai Yu had no chance of turning the situation around.

Therefore, Bai Lin had no reservations and his words became increasingly harsh. “Bai Yu, let me tell you! From today onwards, Lingyu will only grow to despise you more and more! Don’t think that sleeping with Lingyu gives you any special status. In Lingyu’s heart, you are nothing more than a tool to warm his bed. Once he gets tired of you, he’ll kick you out without hesitation.”

Bai Yu lay on the bed, completely ignoring him. Who knew this person would stick around and keep talking with such offensive words?

Bai Yu rolled his eyes. Bai Lin’s insults were repetitive and never-ending. He hadn’t had enough, but Bai Yu had heard enough. If this continued, his ears would develop calluses.

Bai Yu sighed, wondering why Nie Lingyu hadn’t come yet. His subordinates were also too slow in taking action.

However, at that moment, a voice sounded in his mind like an alarm bell. “[Host, I sense that the villain has arrived at the door of the room. And his blackening level has dropped to 50%. It seems that the misunderstanding has been cleared up.]”

“Good,” Bai Yu nodded, mentally responding to the voice.

“I understand.”

Immediately, he sat up from the bed, silently hugged his knees, and sat in the corner of the wall. Bai Yu’s calm and serene eyes were instantly filled with teardrops, a mixture of discomfort and pain.

In a low voice, he said, “No, Lingyu wouldn’t treat me like that… He wouldn’t see me as a tool… He wouldn’t abandon me.”

Bai Yu’s voice was filled with painful grievances, and tears fell drop by drop as if they couldn’t be held back any longer.

Bai Lin had been monologuing all by himself for a while and received no response, which made him even more irritated. He didn’t expect Bai Yu to suddenly respond to him, so Bai Lin became even more enthusiastic.

“You still don’t believe it? Who do you think you are? Let me tell you, Bai Yu, within a month, you’ll be kicked out. So, if you’re sensible, you should leave on your own. Save yourself from future embarrassment.”

Bai Lin vented a mouthful of resentment in his heart.

He has disliked his older brother for a long time, and today he can finally kick him out.

If Bai Yu is sensible, he should leave on his own. Otherwise, he can’t blame him for using some means

Bai Yu’s eyes looked towards the bed, where the discarded gift bag from Nie Lingyu lay casually.

Quietly, Bai Yu reached out and took it, holding the gift bag in his arms.

His appearance looked truly aggrieved and pitiful.

However, Bai Yu’s action of reaching for the gift bag caught Bai Lin’s attention.

“What are you holding in your hand?”

Bai Lin glared fiercely at Bai Yu and forcefully snatched the gift bag away.

Bai Yu urgently said, “Give it back to me, that’s the gift I wanted to give to Lingyu.”

Bai Yu’s words, once spoken, filled Bai Lin’s heart with even more hatred. He tore the gift bag to shreds without hesitation, throwing the tie inside onto the ground.

“I’m telling you, from today onwards, you and Lingyu won’t have any connection anymore! Don’t even think about giving gifts to Lingyu!”

Bai Lin’s arrogance was so rampant that he didn’t even notice the coldness that flashed in Bai Yu’s eyes.

Just at that moment, the room’s door was kicked open with a loud bang.

Bai Lin turned his head in surprise and saw Nie Lingyu standing there with an extremely dark expression.

“Lingyu, brother…”

Bai Lin’s face showed some excitement. In his eyes, Nie Lingyu should detest Bai Yu now. So even if he scolded Bai Yu, it wouldn’t matter.

However, the next second, he felt an overwhelming pain in his chest.

Nie Lingyu, as if gone mad, kicked Bai Lin out forcefully.

His kick had tremendous strength, sending Bai Lin crashing into the wall. Before he could even say a word, he fainted on the spot.

Raging fury filled Nie Lingyu’s heart. He didn’t know if he was angry at Bai Lin or angry at himself.

He didn’t even know that Bai Yu was in such a situation in this household.

Even a random person could treat him with such humiliation and even drive him away!

Although Nie Lingyu had cared about Bai Yu in the past, he also felt some resentment toward him.

Why couldn’t he see him? Why did he desperately want to leave here?

It wasn’t until now that Nie Lingyu finally understood.

If even Bai Yu’s own younger brother treated him like this, then what about others?

Bai Yu’s appearance was so weak and vulnerable. How could he survive in this place?

No wonder he wanted to leave him so badly!

Nie Lingyu’s heart ached fiercely.

With eyes red, he looked at Bai Yu curled up on the bed.

Bai Yu’s body was thin and frail, his face pale as paper. He looked as if he could disappear at any moment…

Step by step, Nie Lingyu walked towards Bai Yu.

Bai Yu looked at him approaching, and his body couldn’t help but tremble.

His eyes were filled with pain and sorrow.

Nie Lingyu really wanted to tell Bai Yu not to be afraid of him, and that he wouldn’t treat him that way anymore.

However, before the words could leave his mouth, he saw Bai Yu’s teary eyes staring directly at him, and a soft voice followed.

“Lingyu, please don’t chase me away, okay?”

Nie Lingyu just stood there, looking at the person in front of him.

He was completely stunned…
