Back to the Demon King's Childhood

Qiao Jianuo never dreamed that the person who would rush into the dungeon to save him, risking his life, would be Jin Chu. The last person he saw before he died was Jin Chu, too... Holding him in his arms, Jin Chu, whose face was usually cold and composed, broke down for the first time and wept like a child. When Qiao Jianuo opened his eyes again, he was back in the summer of 1998. He was nine, and Jin Chu was ten. Who could have guessed that twenty years later, Jin Chu would become a sinister, violent, cold-blooded demon king? Back then, he was a sensitive, withdrawn, taciturn illegitimate child. Qiao Jianuo thought to himself: In this life, he would be a little kinder to Jin Chu, then kinder still. At the very least, he wouldn't stand by and watch their lives pass by again. - Jin Chu had lived in darkness since childhood, never seeing a trace of sunlight. He thought this was simply his life: like a rat in the street, bearing the label of illegitimate child and hiding alone in a dark corner, while a terrifying hatred grew inside him like bacteria. Until-- That person appeared. Like a ray of light, gradually seeping into the darkness around him. Call him selfish, call him repaying kindness with treachery, he didn't care. He just wanted to keep that light to himself, tucked away in his pocket, where no one else could see it. @Rice Porridge, Working Hard Theme: Reborn once more, loving you just as before
