After I Lost My Memory, My Controlling Daddy Went Crazy

[Please Favorite "The World-Weary Canary in a Restricted Novel"]

When Qiu Ting was eight, Jie Yuanshan found him, a little deaf boy living on the streets, and took him home.

After getting hearing aids, the first voice he heard clearly was Jie Yuanshan's. For the next ten years, this man provided him with everything he needed.

Outsiders said Mr. Jie was cold and heartless, and in Qiu Ting's eyes, that was certainly true.

Jie Yuanshan was fiercely controlling. From what Qiu Ting wore to how he planned his life, he handled every little detail for him. Only when they were alone would Jie Yuanshan show a rare, gentle side.

Qiu Ting called Jie Yuanshan "Big Brother," and Jie Yuanshan acted like a real guardian. He patiently comforted Qiu Ting when he sobbed, but whenever Qiu Ting did something wrong, he always seemed so unfeeling.

On the day of Qiu Ting's coming-of-age ceremony, as he watched Jie Yuanshan get drunk, he suddenly felt a strange flutter in his heart.

So he liked his Big Brother.

Taking advantage of Jie Yuanshan's drunkenness, he spent a confused night with him, and the two ended up in bed together.

He had thought they both felt the same way, but when he woke up the next morning, Jie Yuanshan was furious.

The moment Qiu Ting confessed his feelings, Jie Yuanshan had him sent abroad.

His Big Brother ordered him not to return to the country for four years. Qiu Ting couldn't believe Jie Yuanshan could be so heartless.

After raising him for ten years, surely Jie Yuanshan must feel something for him, no matter what.

So Qiu Ting kept making excuses, pretending to be sick so he could come home. But before he could even board a plane, he was caught lying and bundled back by bodyguards.

Just as he was losing hope and preparing to give up, he got into a car accident.

When he woke up again, his mind was a blank. Qiu Ting looked at the handsome man with a dark expression standing before him, but couldn't remember a thing.

"How long are you going to keep pretending?"

The man's cold question left Qiu Ting looking bewildered.

"I'm sorry, Uncle. I don't think I know you."

-

Only later did Qiu Ting learn that before he lost his memory, he had done something so crazy.

When other people tried to hint at what had happened, he obediently shook his head.

"Big Brother saved my life. How could I ever have those kinds of feelings for him?"

He was going to be a good younger brother and make life easy for Jie Yuanshan.

But just as Qiu Ting finally calmed down, Jie Yuanshan went mad.
