Nan Zhongzhen was born in the Interstellar Federation. His family had originally been a reclusive ancient martial arts clan, but after the great war, they officially stepped onto the historical stage.
His older brother, Nan Mengzhen, was a genius, and the family had high hopes for him. If nothing went wrong, he would become the next head of the family.
As for him, he was frail from birth, and his mental strength was so powerful that it placed a heavy burden on his body.
After discussing it as a family, his father decided to set him on a path that was certain to be difficult and full of twists and turns, but might lead to a bright future.
His older brother, Nan Mengzhen, was cold and domineering, but he cared deeply for his younger brother, Nan Zhongzhen. Their father also doted on him because he was frail, well-behaved, and understanding.
He would move forward alongside his older brother, and he had many friends too.
He would meet a special lover and face many challenges.
But they would always be by his side. They loved him, and he loved them.
Younger brother's point of view:
After that incident.
In the empty training room, Nan Zhongzhen sat on a huge, cold warship, looking through the transparent glass at the vast night sky and stars outside as he remembered their childhood.
From the age of three, they had soaked in medicinal baths to loosen their muscles and bones. The pain was unbearable for little children, so his older brother would hold him the whole time and comfort him.
When they began physical training at four, his body was weak, and his older brother saw it. He stood in front of him and told their father that he was willing to train more, even twice as much, so his younger brother wouldn't have to work so hard. He could always protect him.
There were many more moments like that. Even though they were both so young, his older brother was always thinking of him and protecting him.
And that was nothing compared to after they grew up. For the first twenty years of his life, he and his older brother were inseparable, never apart.
His older brother had sacrificed so much for him and loved him dearly, but that love was so heavy. How could he ever repay it?
Reader's guide:
1. The male protagonist and his older brother are identical twins. They look exactly alike, but have different temperaments.
2. Their relationship is familial, not taboo.
3. The male protagonist will have his own partner later on.
4. The male protagonist's older brother is a doting younger-brother fanatic. Because his younger brother was born with a congenital deficiency, he protected him from childhood. Later, his love becomes twisted (possessive, but not taboo).
5. This is a world where, in the end, only the older brother and a certain country's crown prince end up causing harm (?).
