Hidden Pain

Sickly, possessive, deaf-mute older sister × sharp-tongued, soft-hearted, cool younger sister

Rekindled love after a breakup, push and pull, a little angst, the younger sister isn’t sexually inexperienced

East Asian angst, sisterly romance, all made up, entirely fictional setting

The older sister has severely impaired hearing and can speak later on.

At her illegitimate younger brother’s wedding, Bian Fenglian saw Bian Ling again: her biological older sister.

Outsiders only knew them as sisters who couldn’t stand each other. But in a dim corner where no one could see, their deaf-mute older sister was shedding tears for her.

And it had already been a full six years since they had fallen out.

“The wounds of the past had festered and filled with maggots, but I was so slow to realize it. I thought they would eventually heal, turning the pain of a missing piece of my heart into the dull ache of a scar closing.”

“If you long for something, set her free.”

“I understand every ache you’ve felt along the way. You have no choice but me.”

“Whether it’s pain or love, it doesn’t matter, as long as it comes from you.”

I accept everything about you.

I give you the power to hurt me, and only that.
