Chapter 21
The absurd guess had turned out to be true, yet Xu Muchan could not smile. His brows were practically knitted […]
The second young master of the Xu Group, who had been abducted, has finally been found, becoming the hottest news in Jiang City recently.
In the news, the pale-skinned, blind young man wearing old clothes and clutching the only schoolbag he owns is brought back to the Xu family.
The Xu family holds a grand welcome ceremony for their second young master and spends a fortune sending him to the best elite school.
Xu Muchan slowly walks through the campus in an expensive but ill-fitting uniform, sensing the malice coming from all directions. He timidly lowers his head, but the corners of his lips secretly curl upward. In a voice no one else can hear, he murmurs aggrievedly, “Big Brother, they all want to bully me.”

Xu Muchan has a difficult time fitting into his new school.
The blind boy is completely out of place among the young masters and young ladies born with silver spoons in their mouths. Being mocked and teased is an everyday occurrence.
What’s more, he is so beautiful and so timid.
Today he is locked outside the classroom; tomorrow he is locked inside the restroom… The students’ cruel methods of playing tricks on him are endless.
Yet not once do they succeed.
The classroom door that has been locked from the inside will inexplicably be blown open by a violent gust of wind.
The blind boy who should have been locked in the restroom seems to be led back to his seat by an invisible being, a sweet smile on his lips as he softly says, “Thank you, Big Brother.”
And those who once played tricks on Xu Muchan later all say in terror that they encountered a ghost. They cry bitterly as they line up to apologize and beg Xu Muchan to spare them.
Xu Muchan ignores them.
Clutching the small bundle he brought from the village, he strolls along the edge of the artificial lake. His thin, frail body sways unsteadily, as if he could fall in at any moment.
The invisible being secretly following him appears and embraces him, letting out a sigh. “A-Chan, don’t be naughty.”
Xu Muchan finally smiles and sweetly hugs Him back. “I knew Big Brother couldn’t bear to abandon me.”

What the people outside do not know is that Xu Muchan did not get lost by accident. His biological parents had deliberately sold him to human traffickers.
He grew up in a remote mountain village steeped in feudal superstition. When he was ten years old, he was offered as a sacrifice to “Him.”
He has no name.
The villagers call Him the Mountain God.
People outside the mountains call Him an evil spirit.
Only Xu Muchan calls Him—
Big Brother.
Chinese-style horror + a slightly Lovecraftian worldview. The gong and shou only have each other.
