....When the teacher called Wenxuan, Ning Shu's leg was bleeding profusely.He was given a simple bandage.The head teacher still insisted on calling his family.During Ning Shu's gym class, there was a...Ning Shu began to have endless nightmares. His face was pale, and he clenched his lips tightly.

He dreamt of himself several years ago, before he ran away. He was caught and taken back to the Li family. His belly gradually grew until after ten months of pregnancy, he gave birth...

Li Yan held the child, just born moments ago, in his arms right in front of him.

Her expression was cold and indifferent. She glanced briefly at Ning Shu lying on the bed, then hurled the child in her hands down...

Ning Shu woke up with a jolt, his heart pounding. He opened his eyes suddenly to realize it was just a nightmare. He sat there for a moment, dazed and disoriented.

Is it a nightmare

He thought of Li Yan's cold and indifferent expression, but then began to fall silent.

Ning Shu began having frequent nightmares, and her body started to waste away. "Dad," Xiaoche's voice sounded, he raised his head and looked over, forcing a smile.

Patted his son's head.

Xiao Che stared at him silently, a flicker of worry appearing in his black eyes. He pursed his lips, seeming a little anxious.

"Dad."

The little baby reached out its hand and hugged Ning Shu tightly.

Ning Shu lowered her head, forced herself to perk up, and patted his face soothingly. In a low voice, she said, "What's wrong"

Xiaoche furrowed his brow and stared at him for several eyes before he felt relieved.

Ning Shu's emaciation was visible to everyone in the Li family. It wasn't just the butler who was worried, even Li Yan had become increasingly violent and unpredictable. Every time he touched the young man's thinner body, his brow furrowed deeper.

It's obvious to anyone that the man is agitated and sullen.

The head chef of the Li family's five-star restaurant is also under a lot of pressure. He has to figure out how to make ingredients that will make Mr. Ning happy. Every day, he loses handfuls of hair just from stress.

But Mr. Ning ate less and less.

Even Li Yan's temper became increasingly irritable, and the people at the company suffered as a result.

Many people are discussing that Mr. Li seems to have taken back a son who looks very much like him. The female employees in the company, who were originally eager to make a move, are heartbroken.

Inside the Lǐ family headquarters at this moment.

No one dared to provoke the man sitting there, whose aura was so oppressive it was palpable. Li Yan, with his handsome face and cold expression, listened to the person on the other end of the phone: "...Mr. Ning ate more out of consideration for the young master."

Li Yan's expression was unclear: "I understand."

After hanging up the phone, he got to his feet and walked to the floor-to-ceiling window. Li Yan lit a cigar, the smoke swirling around his face, obscuring it somewhat.

For him, it was torture as well.

Letting him go of Ning Shu is impossible for this lifetime.

Li Yan, whenever he thought about the young man leaving him, that feeling of restlessness and anxiety surged up again. He couldn't control himself, couldn't control the urge to hurt the young man....

The blood vessels in her eyes welled up again.

After a long time.

In the office, a phone rang again: "Dr. Zhao, could we schedule a meeting"

,....

A tiredness that Ning Shu couldn't control showed in his eyes, but for Xiao Che. He still forced himself to perk up and didn't reveal any of his emotions in front of his son.

Xiao Che hugged his arm: "Dad."

The young man bent down and carried him onto the bed.

Little Che stared at him for a while.

Ning Shu knew his son was always perceptive, so he patiently replied, "What's wrong"

It's the same as always.

Xiaoche, however, pursed his lips. A look appeared on his usually cold face that Ning Shu couldn't understand. He turned away and closed his eyes.

He knew he was a burden to his father. If it weren't for him, his father would be doing much better.

Ning Shu touched him for a while before walking out.

When he returned to the room, Li Yan didn't know when he had come back. He was staring at him with eyes like black obsidian.

Ning Shu knew he didn't like her going to Xiao Che's room. She stayed silent for a moment before saying, "I'm going to take a shower."

When the youth emerged, he still carried the moisture of the water. As if ready for anything, Ning Shu had already revealed her fair and alluring body.

Especially her high, prominent buttocks.

Li Yan had already witnessed its beauty, countless times buried deep within, breathing in its embrace.

But just as Ning Shu was about to start, a man's hand reached out and touched her palm. He stopped his action and said lightly, "Go to sleep, I have no interest in you right now."

Ning Shu fell silent for a moment, closing his eyes. His pale brows and eyes showed a hint of weariness.

Li Yan looked at his side-lying body, obviously a sleeping posture lacking security. He took a deep breath, stared intently, and finally domineeringly pulled the person into his arms.

He stared at the young man for a while, until he fell asleep, then gently kissed his forehead.

.....

Ning Shu began to have endless nightmares again, on days he wasn't paying attention. His body had become thinner, and Li Yan's mood became increasingly irritable.

He threatened him in various ways to make up for his body.

Ning Shu had developed a high fever, one that lasted for days. When he woke up, Li Yan sat beside him. His expression looked tired, his dark eyes staring intently.

He opened his mouth, the first words out were: "Where's Xiao Che"

Li Yan stared at him, his expression unreadable.

He spoke, addressing the servant: "Bring the young master here."

As soon as Xiao Che entered, he immediately ran to the bed and stared intently at the young man on the bed, his little face tightly clenched.

Ning Shu was held very tightly by him, and she touched his face.

Li Yan closed his eyes and watched this scene. He walked out.

After more than an hour, he quietly told the maid, "Take the young master downstairs first."

Xiao Che, upon hearing this, lifted his face to look over. That was definitely not the look of a son looking at his father. It carried a hint of hostility, even hatred.

His handsome face held the same cold, ruthless expression as Lord Yama.

Li Yan didn't even glance at him: "Your father needs to rest. If you want him to get worse, you can stay."

Xiao Che then reluctantly glanced at Ning Shu.

Only Li Yan and Ning Shu remained in the room. The bloodshot in the man's eyes hadn't subsided, he held onto the young man's hand, his voice carrying a chillingly calm ruthlessness: "If you don't take good care of your body, I'll send him away."

Ning Shu's eyelashes trembled slightly.

...

Everyone knows that Mr. Ning is the apple of Chairman Li's eye, and the servants are even more careful to serve him, not daring to be negligent in any way.

Mr. Ning, Mr. Li said that your body hasn't recovered yet and you can't go out.

Ning Shu fell silent for a moment before saying, "Can't I just take a breath"

The servant looked embarrassed.

The young man smiled at her and said, "Forget it."

The servant couldn't help but be taken aback, thinking that this young Mr. Ning was indeed very handsome.

Ning Shu didn't know why Li Yan had changed his attitude recently, and he no longer forced him. Maybe he was tired of it, she didn't want to delve into what Li Yan was actually thinking.

He stood at the edge of the building, yet he seemed somewhat dazed.

"Dad!"

A voice came from behind.

Ning Shu came back to her senses, but she saw that all the servants of the Li family were looking at her with terrified eyes.

His son hugged him tightly around the thighs.

Ning Shu steadied herself on the edge of the stairs, coming back to her senses. As if awoken, she looked at her usually composed and calm son, whose eyes were now filled with terror.

This inevitably gave him a few regrets and feelings of guilt. He quickly picked up his son and said, "Dad is fine..."

One of the maids broke out in a cold sweat. She thought Mr. Ning looked strange and hurriedly went to report it to the butler...

Ning Shu hadn't expected Li Yan to suddenly return from the company.

The man's face was frighteningly dark, he gripped the young man's hand tightly, as if wanting to squeeze him into his body. In a chilling voice, his entire being radiating an icy coldness: "Do you want to die"

Ning Shu came back to himself, he opened his mouth. He didn't know why he had suddenly become dazed, and now looking back, he felt a little scared.

The young man's silence only fueled Li Yan's rage. He gritted his teeth and hissed, "I won't allow you to die, Ning Shu. If you want to die, then go ahead and die"

Ning Shu was already used to his behavior.

He closed his eyes, feeling exhausted from getting entangled with someone like Li Yan.

So she pursed her lips, closing her eyes and said nothing.

He didn't even notice that Li Yan looked rather disheveled at this moment, windblown and dusty, with a sheen of cold sweat on his forehead.

Li Yan calmed himself down and asked the servant to explain the whole story clearly.

The maid hesitated and said, "Mr. Ning stood there in a daze for quite a while today...and then..." She trailed off, a hint of fear in her voice. "If it hadn't been for the young master suddenly appearing, I'm afraid Mr. Ning would have fallen."

Li Yan's face was so cold it was frightening. He closed his eyes. The company phone kept ringing, but Li Yan remained expressionless and didn't answer.

But the assistant over there was almost frantic. This was a project worth tens of billions, how could Mr. Li just walk away halfway through

Half an hour later.

The private doctor was called over again, wearing mismatched socks: "Mr. Li..."

Li Yan's expression was cold and indifferent, his icy eyes swept over. "He wants to die...."

The personal physician was taken aback, then said, "Is Mr. Li referring to Mr. Ning"

Li Yan's face contorted with irritability and anxiety, his eyes dark and heavy as he let out a low hum.

The private doctor fell silent for a moment before saying, "Mr. Li, I have to be blunt. Mr. Ning's condition is worrisome. If this continues, he may develop depression."

As is widely known, depression is notoriously difficult to treat.

If the patient's emotions are very unstable, and even suicidal thoughts may occur.

The personal physician, under pressure, stated: “Mr. Ning.... This subconscious action might already indicate suicidal thoughts...."

Li Yan's pupils contracted instantly.s shallow eyes, like they had golden light flickering across them. His Adam's apple rolled slightly, then he spoke in a low voice: "Master touch it, and it softens.""If he were to be held from behind...
