[Mad seme, crazy uke]
A few months after Si Xinge's mother was buried, his alcoholic father brought home a charming young woman.
The woman had a boy with her who was about the same age as Si Xinge: Fang Zhuoyu.
From their very first proper meeting, Si Xinge treated the mother and son with contempt.
Especially Fang Zhuoyu. Since Si Xinge couldn't take his anger out on Fang's mother, he took it all out on Fang instead.
He thought he could drive them out of his home that way, but Fang Zhuoyu was unbelievably patient. No matter how Si Xinge treated him, he never fought back or complained.
Just as Si Xinge was trying to figure out how to get them to leave, his bastard of a father and that wretched woman both disappeared.
By a strange twist of fate, Si Xinge and Fang Zhuoyu had no choice but to live under the same roof, and somehow became "dependent on each other."
Fang Zhuoyu didn't know his way around. No matter how Si Xinge treated him, he endured it silently, following him to school from a distance, doing the housework, and even washing clothes and cooking.
But Si Xinge wasn't about to change just because Fang Zhuoyu tried to please him.
Friend: "Xinge, who's that?"
Si Xinge: "A bastard."
Friend: "Don't mess around. I heard him call you Big Brother. Isn't he the one your stepmother brought with her?"
Si Xinge scowled. "Get lost. Your stepmother? He called me by my name. My deadbeat father never even married her, so how is she his mother? My mom's been dead for ages."

One day, Fang Zhuoyu made dinner as usual and went to knock on Si Xinge's bedroom door, but he got no answer no matter how many times he called.
Remembering that Si Xinge had come home early because of a fever, he couldn't help worrying. Gathering his courage, he called through the door, "Bro, are you okay? I-I'm coming in."
Fang Zhuoyu turned the doorknob and pushed the door open. The sight that greeted him made his face turn red.
Si Xinge was sitting there with his upper body bare and his pants wide open, desperately yanking a pillow over his waist.
From that moment on, Fang Zhuoyu's nightmare of a life began...
*
Years later, he ran, and Si Xinge chased. He had nowhere to escape.
Like a madman, Si Xinge kicked open Fang Zhuoyu's door and punched the man who was lying beneath him.
Grabbing Fang Zhuoyu by the collar, he roared, "Are you so desperate that you'll take anything? You'd even sleep with trash like him?!"
Fang Zhuoyu narrowed his eyes and gave a drunken sneer. "Who are you? What gives you the right to control me? I could eat shit and it still wouldn't be any of your business, would it?"
Si Xinge was red with fury. "Open your damn eyes and look! Who am I? I'm your brother!"
Fang Zhuoyu: "Brother? Heh. Didn't you tell me not to call you that? Besides, my mom never married your deadbeat father. Which brother are you talking about? The 'Ge' in Si Xinge?"
