Love? Shan Ming did not consider this issue. Of course he loves his son, but the ‘love’ spoken from Shen Changze’s mouth is obviously the kind of ‘love’ between a man and a woman. To say that he has that kind of love for his son, he has never thought about it. It is too weird for him. He couldn’t understand Shen Changze’s persistence. In his eyes, as early as ten years ago, the two had been in a relationship that would last a lifetime. That was the relationship of an adoptive father and son. They had been together for more than ten years. From Shan Ming’s point of view, the depth of the relationship between the two is not comparable to him being with anyone else. But there was no need to deliberately classify it into anything. It was just between family members. It came naturally. So what exactly does Shen Changze want? Does he want a marriage certificate?

Shan Ming looked at Shen Changze’s blood-red eyes. The monstrosity in those eyes shocked him. He gritted his teeth and said: “We are father and son. The relationship between us for more than ten years is greater than life or death. What the hell is with this ‘love’ nonsense?”

Shen Changze’s red eyes showed grief and indignation, “Who wants to only be your son forever? Don’t treat me as your son. Treat me as your man. You must be loyal to me from your body to your heart. You must stay by my side forever. Can you do it?”

Shan Ming felt so pressured that he couldn’t speak. He couldn’t regard Shen Changze as a man. In his eyes, his son would always be a child.

Shan Ming’s hesitation made Shen Changze’s body tremble uncontrollably. He stretched out his hand to grab Shan Ming’s neck. His blood-red eyes looked dangerous and crazy. He then spat out the words from his thin lips, “You swear to me. Swear that you will never leave me again no matter what happens.”

The sharp claws on his neck and the tightly wrapped tail around his waist made the air in Shan Ming’s lungs even more scarce. In such a situation where he was forced to give in, Shan Ming felt he would be a weakling if he gave in. So he stared into Shen Changze’s eyes and said firmly, “Impossible. Where I want to go and how I want to live my life are up to me. It’s not up for you to dictate.”

The red pupils shrank suddenly before the scarlet colour became brighter under the dim light. It looked like a bloody whirlpool. When Shan Ming was stared at by these eyes, he tasted a fear of being swallowed up little by little.

Shen Changze flicked his tail and threw him heavily to the ground. Shan Ming felt uneasy and wanted to run when he got up, but his ankles were caught by the tail and he was dragged back down to the ground again. Shen Changze rushed forward. His claws easily tore off Shan Ming’s clothes. He then opened his mouth and bit on Shan Ming’s neck. His sharp teeth sank into the flesh. Shan Ming punched Shen Changze’s back with a heavy blow while he endured the pain. Shen Changze seemed to not be able to feel pain at all. Huge amounts of blood was sucked through his teeth holes.

The memories of last night surged up like sea water. The feeling of the madness in his bones and his animal nature being completely released can still be clearly recalled at this moment. The images of what he had done kept occupying his brain. The more he recalled, the more terrified he became.

He stretched out his trembling hand to touch Shan Ming’s face. It was terribly hot!

“Baba!” Shen Changze hugged Shan Ming violently. But his palm was wet. He stretched out his hand to see that it was full of blood.

Shen Changze almost collapsed in fear. He tremblingly turned Shan Ming’s body over. The stitched wound on his back was completely torn apart. The stitches were all broken apart. He wasn’t aware of how much Shan Ming had bled. Even the surrounding weeds were all stained red.

Shen Changze was so frightened that his whole heart trembled. He hurriedly carried Shan Ming to a dry grassland. He took out the medicine box from the bag and treated Shan Ming’s wound. He wiped the blood off of his back. Only then did he see that there was a small bump in the flesh on the side of Shan Ming’s spine. He reached out to feel it and knew immediately that it was a tracking device. He didn’t have to think more about who put it in. Shen Changze gritted his teeth with hatred. He hated Shen Yao and he also hated himself.

He didn’t want to hurt Baba. He never would have hurt him!

Shen Changze was hesitant to take out the tracking device. He was afraid that it would cause Shan Ming to bleed profusely. But if this thing remained in his body, it would definitely be infected in this environment. Shen Yao didn’t want to simply let Shan Ming go at all. He gritted his teeth for the last time before he cut the stitches and then gently pushed the tracking device out of the flesh with his fingers. Shan Ming was still twitching in pain while he was unconscious. Shen Changze was so distressed that he was about to bleed. He kept touching Shan Ming’s back, looking at the bruises all over his body. He wished he could kill himself.

The ball-shaped tracker was finally slowly pushed out. After sterilising the tweezers, Shen Changze slowly clamped it and pulled it out. He threw the tracker on the ground and crushed it with one foot. He then immediately stopped the bleeding and stitched the wound back up.

After he finished working on his back injury, his eyes shifted to Shan Ming’s asshole, which had been ravaged all night and could not be closed up till now. Shen Changze gritted his teeth. He rinsed it with clean water and then applied anti-inflammatory medicine on it. He took off his own clothes and put them on for Shan Ming. Then, he put on Shan Ming’s torn clothes on himself. He fed him some medicine and water. He then hugged his body, which was still in high temperature, feeling panicky in his heart.

What has he done…? He thought that he was completely in control of himself. But from the moment he saw Shan Ming yesterday, something was absolutely wrong with him.

He didn’t want to treat Shan Ming like this… he didn’t want to really hurt him… he didn’t want this…

However, who was that extremely excited Dragon Blood Man last night? He can still taste that kind of unscrupulous venting. The kind of crazy pleasure that goes deep into the bone marrow. It turned out that he could actually have such a crazy experience when he had sex in the form of a Dragon Blood Man. Shen Changze blamed himself deeply while reminiscing over and over again irresistibly.

Shan Ming’s weak appearance hurt his heart. He kissed Shan Ming’s hot cheeks repeatedly and murmured: “Baba…” Why did you reject me? Why did you insist on leaving me and not wanting to stay with me? Why won’t you be with me? I am willing to do anything for you. Why do you have to leave me, Baba…? Who else loves you more than me? Don’t leave me. Don’t reject me.

With Shan Ming’s current state, it was inconvenient for him to move. So Shen Changze sat by a tree trunk while hugging him. He was full of confusion and despair. He gently kisses Shan Ming’s hair and forehead. He both loves and hates this person in his heart.

With Shan Ming, he was very persistent in chasing after him. Even Shen Changze himself felt afraid of that persistence of his. He knew that even if he was against everyone, he would never let go of Shan Ming. It was such an obsession. Under Shan Ming’s repeated betrayal and resistance, he was finally driven crazy. He understands Shan Ming’s character, he is a man who sticks to his own will and does things in his own way. If he was forced, he would never obey. It will only make him reject it even more strongly. So now, Shen Changze is even more afraid that this time, Shan Ming will no longer tolerate him for the harm that he had caused to him.

What can he do now? The hot body in his arms and the tired eyes made his heart throbbing with pain.

Why did he fall in love with his own adoptive father? He was afraid of him and hated him very much when he was a child. So why did he fall in love with him in the end? Maybe it was because he wanted Shan Ming to bow down to him too much since he was a child. His eyes kept following this man. As he grew up, he wanted to get his affirmation. He constantly embarrassed himself in order to keep up with his footsteps. At that time, it is not an exaggeration to say that he wanted to live to make Shan Ming happy.

Therefore, from the moment he picked him up fifteen years ago, this relationship was already doomed. No matter what happened, he would never let go of him. He absolutely would never let go of Shan Ming.

Under the dual effects of anti-inflammatory drugs and alcohol to cool down, Shan Ming’s temperature finally dropped after four hours. Shen Changze carried him on his back to bring him to a safe place.

But after he thought about it, the time was not right for that. He still has to go back to Shen Yao but he can’t bring Shan Ming back there. He has to find a way to contact Tang Tingzhi to pick up Shan Ming. Shen Yao really wanted Shan Ming to die. So he can no longer take this risk.

After walking for more than an hour, he suddenly smelled the scent of a Dragon Blood Man not far away. This scent was very strange. It was a Dragon Blood Man he had never come into contact with.

He retreated vigilantly behind a tree trunk and lightly placed Shan Ming on the ground. He then drew out his sabre.

A shadow quickly flashed over. Shen Changze slashed at the person with a knife but the figure blocked his knife in a flash.

At this moment, both of them saw each other clearly.

“Ayer!”

“It’s you!”

The person in front of him was Ayer.

Shen Changze has already learned from Tang Tingzhi that Ayer has become a Dragon Blood Man. But he feels a little strange when he thinks that his familiar comrade-in-arms has become his own kind. Nonetheless, he is still glad that Ayer survived. Although he was jealous of the tacit brotherhood between Ayer and Shan Ming, Shan Ming would suffer greatly if Ayer died.

Just as Ayer was about to ask him something, he suddenly saw Shan Ming lying on the ground, “Shan!” He immediately ran over to help Shan Ming up. But Shan Ming was still unconscious.

“What’s wrong with him?”

Shen Changze turned his head unnaturally in guilt, “He got hurt a bit.”

“I looked for him in this forest with the others for a whole day. Fortunately, you found him first.” Ayer asked, “Where are you going to take him?”

“To find you.”

“We’re in a village at the foot of the mountain.”

Ayer wanted to carry Shan Ming on his back but Shen Changze came over and said, “I’ll carry him.”

Normally, Ayer would laugh at him. But now is not the time to joke. He only looked at Shen Changze carrying Shan Ming on his back and asked, “Are you going back to Shen Yao’s place now, or are you going to meet us?”

“I have to go back to him. But before that, I want to see her.” Shen Changze lowered his head, looking at his feet thoughtfully.

“Her?” Ayer thought for a while, “Are you referring to your mother?”

Hearing the word ‘mother’, Shen Changze felt his heart tremble.

If he had known that the disguised Dragon Blood Man back then at the auction house was his mother, he would not have left just like that.

His impression of Shen Yao as a father is very vague. He has almost no emotion for him. But he still remembers his mother. The word ‘mother’ is a dream that has been out of reach for him for more than ten years.

Ayer said: “After receiving the news that Shen Yao deliberately released, she also went to look for Shan Ming. I don’t know if she has gone back now. It takes about three hours to get to the village from here. Let’s go and take a look first.”

Shen Changze said: “Baba also needs treatment. As soon as possible.”

The Dragon Blood Man released by Shen Yao to besiege Ayer and his party also appeared in the forest. Fortunately, he had crushed Shan Ming’s tracker. Otherwise, they would definitely not be able to escape from there. Despite this, Shen Changze deliberately avoided them, guided by the scent they left behind. Although the journey was supposed to be only three hours, it took them seven hours to return to the village.

To Shen Changze’s surprise, Zhao Qingling hadn’t come back yet. In this village that was mostly destroyed by the war, there was no one else there except for Tang Ting and his men. He brought Shan Ming into a house and Tang Ting went to treat Shan Ming first.

Shen Changze sat down with others to discuss the current situation.

After a while, Tang Tingzhi came out. He glanced at Shen Changze lightly. Although he showed no expression, Shen Changze still read harshness from his eyes. He turned his face away guiltily.

Tang Tingzhi said: “He lost a lot of blood. His back wound was inflamed and he even had a fever. His condition is not very good. He needed to rest for a few days. He cannot participate in the next operation.”

Shen Changze bit his lip secretly as he clenched his fists. His nails sank into his flesh.

Ayer didn’t know how Shan Ming ended up that way. So he slammed the table down, “I must beat that bastard, Shen Yao, into pieces.”

Shen Changze got up and said, “I’ve told you everything about the situation. You guys discuss it among yourselves. I’ll go in and see Baba for a while. But I have to hurry back soon.”

After he entered the room, Shan Ming was still closing his eyes tightly. Even though he was frowning because of the pain, he didn’t wake up even for a moment.

Shen Changze gently smoothed his frowning eyebrows. He then stroked his forehead and cheeks back and forth with his thick fingertips. His heart was filled with sadness.

I love you so much. How can I get through to your heart?
