Why Is My Brother Looking at Me Like That

Si Bai hated everything about Ge'ake City.

The seemingly endless rainy season, his alcoholic, abusive father, his mother, who treated her children like merchandise, and Si Qin, who was always crying.

But when he had finally saved enough money to buy a ticket out of Ge'ake City, he inexplicably stopped.

He looked at the little child in the run-down house, his face dirty and his eyes red, tears pattering down his cheeks.

"Big brother..." the child called through his tears.

Si Bai wiped the child's tears away without a trace of warmth and warned him, "Si Qin, if you cry again, I'll throw you out."

"I want to play with Damao," little Si Qin sniffled.

Damao was a dog belonging to the neighbors. Its fur was filthy and matted, and one of its legs was lame.

"..." Si Bai picked up the child and tossed him outside.

When little Si Qin spotted the big dog lying in the hallway, he stopped crying and ran over barefoot.

Watching the child roll around with the dog, Si Bai frowned in disgust.

Then he went to the black market and sold the ability fruit he'd worked so hard to obtain, trading it for a ticket.

*

From the cold, damp carriage of an illegal train, to the bloody, brutal underground fighting arena, to the dazzling world of fame and fortune... Step by step, Si Bai grew from prey at everyone's mercy into a powerful, ruthless man at the top.

But he never once abandoned Si Qin.

★ The older brother (Si Bai) is the top; the younger brother (Si Qin) is the bottom

★ The brothers are ten years apart and are not blood-related

★ The romance begins when they are adults
