he finished his business and walked out of the toilet. he saw ah ming still sitting on the sofa. the television in the room was on, but ah ming was not watching it. he looked out of the window as if he was lost in thought.
fang shan walked towards a ming.
ah ming noticed the shadow approaching. he looked up and saw fang shan walking towards him. fang shan immediately sat down beside ah ming. fang shan’s expression was very serious, as if he was about to do something big.
ah ming also became nervous.
“let me see your foot.” fang shan said.
!!
ah ming was stunned.
” no… ” he shook his head, and subconsciously s.h.i.+fted his left foot below his b.u.t.t. he sat on his left leg, so that fang shan would not be able to see it. fang shan glared at him and scolded, ” let me see! ”
“no,” ah ming was determined to disagree. he saw the anger in fang shan’s eyes and said in a low voice, ” it’s very ugly. it’ll scare you. ”
fang shan’s heart started to throb in pain.
he took a deep breath before exhaling. fang shan said, ” not ugly. i don’t mind. ”
hearing this, ah ming hesitated for a moment but still refused.
he said, ” i mind. ” he looked straight into fang shan’s unhappy eyes and told fang shan what he was thinking. ah ming said, ” i feel inferior. you’re so perfect. in front of you, i feel inferior. i don’t want to show you my ugly side, so i beg you, give me some face.”
when ah ming said this, his tone was calm, but his eyes were filled with tears.
fang shan suddenly turned around and held his forehead with his hand. he started sobbing.
seeing that fang shan was crying, ah ming’s heart ached.
“fang shan, don’t cry.”
fang shan said, ” what do you know? you don’t understand me at all.” all these years, whenever fang shan felt happy, he could not help but think that it would be great if his brother was still alive.
but now, he had met his brother, but his brother told him that he felt inferior and begged him to give him some face.
there had never been a moment where fang shan hated his mother as deeply as he did now. if his mother hadn’t been so cruel to abandon ah ming for her secrets, the two brothers wouldn’t have been separated for eighteen years!
it had been eighteen years!
ah ming should have enjoyed the same happy life as him. with the help of the fang family, ah ming would definitely be more outstanding than he was now.
fang shan’s heart ached.
he wiped his tears and clenched his fists tightly. with his back to ah ming, he slowly opened his mouth. fang shan said, ” little brother, i’m sorry. ”
ah ming was stunned.
“little brother?” ah ming blinked his eyes. he was flattered and happy. so he was younger than fang shan. “so i’m younger than you?”
fang shan said, ” yes, our birth mother fell down the stairs when she was pregnant with us. she acted up on the spot. there was a long distance between the place of occurrence and the hospital. when they arrived at the hospital, the doctor performed an open surgery without anesthesia. i was born half a minute before you. when you were taken out, your breathing was very weak because of the severe lack of oxygen …”
a ‘ming suddenly felt relieved. he said, ” because i was born and my breathing was too weak, the doctor thought that i couldn’t be saved and gave up on me? then, i was picked up by my mother-in-law and saved by her?”
fang shan’s back was facing ah ming. when he heard ah ming’s words, his mouth was filled with bitterness and he could not answer. ah ming could not see fang shan’s expression, so he naturally did not notice fang shan’s pained expression.
he even said happily, ” i thought you guys deliberately didn’t want me because i was born deformed. so it wasn’t like that.” ah ming would be content if he was not abandoned by his parents because of his health.
hearing ah ming’s tone of relief, fang shan wanted to cry even more.
he had wanted to tell ah ming the truth about how he had been abandoned back then.
he wanted to tell him,”you were born deformed. when you were born, you were still breathing even though you lacked oxygen.” it was our mother who was too cruel. in order to chase away the mistress by father’s side, she deliberately fell down the stairs to slander the mistress. in order to act pitiful, in order to completely chase away that woman, she ruthlessly abandoned you, who was born deformed.
however, fang shan could not bear to do so.
he suddenly didn’t want ah ming to know the truth of what happened back then.
just let him live in his fantasy.
it was enough for him to bear the truth that made people feel despair and despair.
“…yes.” fang shan took a deep breath and turned around. he smiled and said to ah ming, ” the doctor said that you were not breathing when you were born, and your foot … ” fang shan did not finish his sentence, but ah ming could understand what he meant.
ah ming nodded. he said, ” so that’s how it is. so you didn’t abandon me because i was born deformed. ”
“no, it’s a misunderstanding.”
“hehe.” ah ming touched his face. it was a little hot. he said, ” i’m sorry. when i’m happy, my face easily burns. ”
“yes.”
fang shan rubbed his face. suddenly, a hand grabbed the foot under his b.u.t.t. ah ming wanted to stop him, but fang shan was faster. fang shan grabbed the leg and straightened ah ming’s entire left leg.
it was summer, and ah ming was also wearing a pair of white socks.
from the protruding shape of the tips of the socks, fang shan could tell that ah ming’s feet were different from those of ordinary people. an ordinary human foot had five toes, and the toes were only slightly narrower than the sole of the foot.
however, ah ming’s toes were very narrow, and he could only see two or three toes in front of him.
fang shan quickly removed the socks from a ‘ming’s feet.
ah ming’s left leg started to struggle, but fang shan held it tightly, not allowing him to pull his leg back. fang shan said, ” don’t move. let me see. i don’t mind. ”
ah ming really did not see any disdain in fang shan’s eyes or anything else that made him feel uncomfortable. only then did he stop struggling.
fang shang used his fingers to stroke a ‘ming’s toes. there were only three toes there, and they looked very deformed. because he didn’t have many toes, his feet were very thin, which caused him to be unbalanced when he walked, which was why he limped.
“does it hurt?” fang shan asked, his tone full of heartache.
ah ming thought for a while before he said honestly, ” it hurt when i was young. i walked too far away, went home, and slept at night. i would be in pain all night long. after i got used to it, it stopped hurting.”
“has anyone ever laughed at you because of this?”
there must be.
not everyone was kind. since a ‘ming had grown up, he must have met some talkative people.
“… there is.” a ‘ming admitted honestly.
he would be a hypocrite if he said he didn’t.
hearing that he had really admitted to it, fang shan felt terrible. he added, ” i’m sorry for all these years. i’ve made you suffer. ”
“it’s alright, i’m used to it.” in the beginning, ah ming did feel inferior. but as he grew up, he realized that he was not inferior to others in any way except for his legs.
he had a handsome face and a very popular profession.
gradually, he no longer felt inferior.
