00:00:00The incubus I bought hates me
00:00:04He bites me, calls me ugly, runs away at every chance
00:00:10So I sold my house and bought his brother instead
00:00:15Milo is the younger twin with a perfect body but zero affection
00:00:21Ezra is the older one, gentle, with a limp
00:00:25I took them both into a basement
00:00:32Master, sleeping here is enough
00:00:35Milo said
00:00:37If there's not enough room, why don't you leave?
00:00:41I replied
00:00:44One of them froze as his eyes turned red
00:00:50You only want my brother now?
00:00:52The incubus I kept was disobedient and bit me again
00:00:58When I got up to wash this morning, I found that the bite mark on my neck had turned a
00:01:03conspicuous purplish red
00:01:08It hurt at the slightest touch
00:01:12I tried to tell myself not to mind it, that it would heal in a few days
00:01:18But walking into the bathroom and looking up at such an ordinary, plain face in the mirror, I still couldn't
00:01:24help but tear up
00:01:27Milo despised me
00:01:28Despised everything about me
00:01:31My looks, my voice
00:01:34He even utterly loathed this old house I lived in
00:01:39We fought last night
00:01:40He was furious
00:01:43And in the heat of our argument, he told the truth
00:01:48Master
00:01:49It was you who insisted on spending all your savings to buy me
00:01:58I didn't leave with you willingly
00:02:05If I had a choice
00:02:08I would never accept you as my master
00:02:10And squeeze into this god-forstaking dump with you
00:02:14Then after this past year with me, up until now
00:02:19Do you really have no feelings for me at all?
00:02:23I pressed on, refusing to give up
00:02:27No, none at all
00:02:29The man was tied to the headboard, unable to move
00:02:32But his gaze remained sharp, his answer resolute
00:02:36The last shred of hope I held onto was completely shattered
00:02:42I washed my face, took a deep breath, and wiped away the tears threatening to fall
00:02:48Then I took the liquid foundation from the counter, carefully pumped out a drop, and covered the mark on my
00:02:54neck
00:02:56Milo was still tied up in my bedroom
00:03:00Before going to work, I planned to untie him
00:03:04Pushing the door open, the man was quietly huddled on the carpet
00:03:09Head lowered, his long eyelashes trembling, slightly probably pretending to be asleep
00:03:15I approached, crouched down, and began untying the slipknot around his wrists
00:03:21Milo
00:03:21The man refused to acknowledge me, keeping his eyes tightly shut
00:03:27I'm going to work
00:03:29I'll untie you, but you promised to be good and wait at home for me to come back
00:03:33If you don't want to untie me, just say so
00:03:37I gave a helpless, wry smile and immediately let him go
00:03:42The man didn't seem to process it, his alluring eyes staring blankly at me
00:03:47You really untied me?
00:03:49I never promised to wait for you at home
00:03:51He used to run away all the time
00:03:55But with his contract in my hands, he couldn't get far
00:03:58It was just a hassle searching the whole world for him every time
00:04:02So I tied him up to save trouble
00:04:05I nodded, compromising out of sheer exhaustion
00:04:09Yeah, just remember to take the house keys with you
00:04:17I bought Milo at the black market last winter
00:04:20There was no special reason for it
00:04:23I just thought he was good looking tall, with broad shoulders and a narrow waist
00:04:28He had a great figure
00:04:29At the time, I actually had my eye on his brother, Ezra too
00:04:36They were twins and looked almost identical
00:04:39The only difference was that Milo was able-bodied
00:04:42While Ezra had a slight limp in his left foot
00:04:47But all my savings were only enough to choose one of them
00:04:51Figuring that buying an incubus meant having someone by my side forever
00:04:55I didn't cheap out and bought the most expensive one
00:04:59But a year had passed, and my dull, monotonous life hadn't gotten any happier
00:05:05Instead, it only brought me a lot more trouble
00:05:09Thinking about it now, I felt a pang of regret
00:05:12If I had chosen Ezra, would things be different?
00:05:17But that shady shop had a strict no-returns-or-exchanges policy
00:05:23I sat at my desk, spacing out for a good while before taking out my phone to check my bank
00:05:28balance
00:05:31I only had a few thousand bucks left
00:05:35Forget it, better not dwell on it
00:05:40Chloe, the boss is treating us to dinner tonight, you coming?
00:05:43My co-worker Emma walked over and patted my shoulder
00:05:50I shook my head
00:05:52She let out a belated
00:05:54And said with a grin
00:05:55I forgot, you've got a virtuous-est male maid at home
00:05:59He must have dinner ready by now
00:06:01Milo cooking for me
00:06:03I'd consider him obedient if he didn't tear my house down
00:06:06I smiled bitterly
00:06:08Just as I was about to explain, Emma looked full of motivation again
00:06:12That's so nice! Now I'm even more motivated to make money
00:06:18Someday, I'm going to buy a pretty man to serve me too
00:06:22I couldn't really say anything to that, so I just reminded her
00:06:27When you do buy one, make sure to choose a legit shop that allows returns
00:06:33Never buy from the black market
00:06:37Got it! Noted!
00:06:40I used to always be the first one to dash out the office doors
00:06:45But today, nearly half an hour after getting off work
00:06:48I was still dawdling at my desk, organizing my things
00:06:52I kept checking my phone every now and then
00:06:54Opening the home security camera to take a look
00:06:58Sure enough, Milo was gone again
00:07:02Feeling frustrated and distracted
00:07:03I simply decided not to rush back
00:07:08I walked down the street, turned into an alley, and took a few turns
00:07:13Before I knew it, I had somehow ended up at the black market again
00:07:22This place was a chaotic mix of all sorts of people
00:07:26It was dirty and messy
00:07:29There were peddlers selling incubus everywhere
00:07:32Some sickly ones were locked in cramped iron cages by the roadside
00:07:38The horns on their heads half sawn off
00:07:41They looked truly pitiful
00:07:44Hey, hey miss, want to take a look?
00:07:46A rare male incubus
00:07:48Name your price, and he's yours!
00:07:54I had only glanced over for a second
00:07:56Before a burly merchant called out to me
00:08:00I was dead broke and couldn't help even if I wanted to
00:08:04I just quickened my pace and walked further in
00:08:09Following my memory, I found that shady shop from last year
00:08:15It was still open for business
00:08:18The boss was dozing off at the front door
00:08:21He didn't even wake up when I stepped inside
00:08:26I slowed my steps and quietly slipped around to the backyard
00:08:31As soon as I stepped inside, I heard a familiar male voice
00:08:38Brother, has anyone planned to buy you these past few days?
00:08:41It was Milo's voice
00:08:43He sneaked out just to see his brother
00:08:46I stopped moving and stood behind the door
00:08:50Continuing to listen
00:08:53A customer came last week and saw me twice
00:08:57But didn't pay in the end
00:09:03I'm disabled, nobody wants me
00:09:09Brother
00:09:10If you hadn't tried to save me when we were kids
00:09:13Your leg wouldn't have been broken by those traffickers
00:09:16It was my fault for sneaking out to play and dragging you down
00:09:23I'm so sorry, brother
00:09:26I'm fine, Milo, it's not your fault
00:09:29Ezra was locked inside a large iron cage
00:09:33An iron collar still fastened around his neck
00:09:38He gripped the iron bars with both hands
00:09:42Even though he was choked so tightly it was hard to breathe
00:09:45He still comforted Milo with a gentle expression
00:09:50I have never blamed you
00:09:51I only hope you live well
00:09:55You are a free man now
00:09:57No longer a commodity on the black market
00:10:01Forget all those unhappy things from the past
00:10:05Milo squatted outside the iron cage, resting his arms on his knees
00:10:08He let out an indignant snort
00:10:11Not exactly free
00:10:13The woman who bought me is terrified I'll run away and keeps me on a tight leash
00:10:18Hearing the young man mention me
00:10:21I slowly clenched my fists, my heartbeat accelerating uncontrollably
00:10:27She's really annoying
00:10:32Rather than being bought by her, I'd be better off staying here
00:10:36His brows furrowed as he spoke
00:10:39She's ugly and poor
00:10:46The clothes she buys me are all fleeny market knockoffs
00:10:49So uncomfortable to wear
00:10:51It's only been a year
00:10:54I don't dare to imagine how miserable my life will be
00:10:57If I have to stay with her forever
00:10:58Before Milo could finish, Ezra interrupted him
00:11:02It won't be
00:11:03It's normal for things to be a bit tight at first
00:11:06That Miss Byer looks like a kind person
00:11:09She surely won't treat you poorly in the future
00:11:12Kind?
00:11:14What's... what kind about her?
00:11:15She ties me up every day
00:11:19Look, there are still marks on my wrists
00:11:23Milo rolled up his sleeves, pointing at the two faint rings on his wrists
00:11:29I've really had enough
00:11:32Brother, you don't know what my life is like
00:11:37If it were possible
00:11:38I'd want us to switch places so you could deal with that ugly woman
00:11:42She is your master
00:11:44So it's only right for her to discipline you
00:11:46How is she ugly?
00:11:47Don't talk nonsense
00:11:49It's all the truth
00:11:51Who's talking nonsense?
00:11:54Those words were like knives entering through my ears but slashing my throat
00:11:59Leaving a swollen, sour ache in my throat
00:12:03I couldn't listen anymore and was just about to leave
00:12:13When I kicked a soda can, sending it clattering noisily
00:12:18Drawing their gazes toward me
00:12:20Ezra looked at me first
00:12:24The corners of his lips curling up into a meek smile
00:12:30Meanwhile, Milo looked awful
00:12:33He stood up, frozen in place, looking somewhat embarrassed
00:12:39You... why are you here?
00:12:43I tried my best to appear calm
00:12:47To take you home
00:12:48But without waiting for his response
00:12:50I quickly turned around and fled outside
00:12:56Hey Chloe!
00:12:58Milo jogged out after me
00:13:00Reaching out to grab the hem of my shirt
00:13:06Chloe
00:13:08Why are you walking so fast?
00:13:10I ignored him
00:13:12Prying his fingers off to snatch my shirt back
00:13:14And kept walking forward
00:13:18But my mind was full of the friendly smile Ezra had just shown me
00:13:25It turned out he was somewhat different from Milo after all
00:13:31He had a tiny teardrop mole under his left eyelid
00:13:35Whenever he smiled, that mole would quietly shift upward
00:13:41Have you been standing there the whole time?
00:13:43Did you hear everything my brother and I talked about?
00:13:47Ezra's legs weren't disabled from birth
00:13:50It was a condition left behind from saving his younger brother
00:13:55So pitiful
00:13:56Much more pitiful than Milo
00:14:02Hey, I'm asking you a question
00:14:06Stop playing deaf
00:14:08Milo behind me suddenly raised his voice interrupting my thoughts
00:14:13I couldn't help but frown
00:14:16I heard it, I heard all of it
00:14:19His breath hitched
00:14:20A hint of unease flashing across his face
00:14:23And his voice dropped significantly
00:14:27I was telling the truth
00:14:31You do tie me up every day?
00:14:34Yeah, it's the truth
00:14:38I'm ugly
00:14:39I'm poor
00:14:40I abuse you
00:14:43In your heart
00:14:44I'm just an unforgivably wicked woman
00:14:49For once, I didn't argue with him
00:14:52But instead went along with his words
00:14:56Milo fell silent
00:15:00Or maybe he was angry
00:15:02He lowered his eyelids and didn't speak again
00:15:06On the way back, I occasionally looked up to observe the young man who was much taller than me
00:15:13He had handsome brow bones and deep set features
00:15:18Even among the incubus race known for their high average attractiveness, his beauty was top tier
00:15:25Yet the black hoodie he wore was just flea market knockoffs
00:15:31The same style as mine, pilling all over from being washed to many times
00:15:39Indeed, if he hadn't been bought by a pauper like me, his life would definitely be much better
00:15:51If Milo resents me, let him resent
00:15:54I yawned and waved my hand
00:15:58It's fine, I forgive you
00:16:00Get out
00:16:03Milo still didn't leave, rooted to the spot
00:16:08I patted the pillow next to my hand
00:16:11Then you're sleeping here?
00:16:13Over the past year, even though he resisted physical contact with me, we always slept in the same room
00:16:21Even when we fought, we never slept in separate beds
00:16:26Now that I was suddenly ignoring him, perhaps he wasn't used to it
00:16:31With that said, Milo lifted a corner of the quilt and took off his pajama jacket
00:16:37Then, a tight grip wrapped around my waist
00:16:42He naturally clung to me, his tail pressing close in a fawning manner
00:16:48I'm very sleepy
00:16:50Lie down and get some good sleep
00:16:52I turned on my side to create some distance
00:16:56Milo instantly got annoyed
00:17:00It's not like I really wanted to be close to you anyway
00:17:03I scooted further toward the edge of the bed, getting even further away from him
00:17:09The man became even more exasperated
00:17:12Also, you're really fake
00:17:14Then he tugged at the quilt twice and turned his back to me as well
00:17:24Early weekend morning
00:17:26I took a trip to the real estate agency
00:17:30The old house was in a prime location
00:17:34Though dilapidated, it offered an easy commute and was close to a school
00:17:39It was probably worth a lot of money now
00:17:44Last year, I figured I would use all my savings to buy the most beautiful incubus first
00:17:51Then sell the old house to buy a smaller, fully furnished apartment
00:17:57And live a comfortable life
00:18:00But Milo never listened to me and was always causing trouble
00:18:07I was busy with work too, so I put the matter on hold
00:18:12Chloe Vance, our current appraisal for your property in a good school district is around $600,000
00:18:19Are you in a hurry to sell?
00:18:22The sales consultant greeted me with a welcoming smile
00:18:25I shook my head
00:18:29No rush, I'm still a bit torn
00:18:32Alright, please do your time to consider it
00:18:35We can keep in touch
00:18:36I took the hot tea she handed me and sat down on a nearby bench
00:18:42Just then, a young girl walked through the door
00:18:46Closely followed by a strikingly handsome incubus boy
00:18:50She was here to rent an apartment through the agency
00:18:55The girl had a loud voice chatting animatedly with the consultant
00:19:00Meanwhile, her incubus nestled obediently by her side
00:19:04Occasionally tugging her sleeve and whispering a few words
00:19:09Sister, the apartments here are so expensive, let's not rent one
00:19:15Actually, the place we're living in now is pretty good
00:19:19I have good stamina, so walking a few extra steps after work can just be my workout
00:19:26So sensible, my eyes were full of envy
00:19:30And a bitter ache twisted in my heart
00:19:33Right then, my phone chimed
00:19:35It was a message from Milo
00:19:40Hey, where did you go? I'm hungry
00:19:50No greeting, no care, only demands
00:19:53Eat instant noodles if you're hungry
00:19:55I'm out taking care of some things
00:19:57I no longer had any expectations of Milo
00:20:03Not that kind of hungry, physically hungry
00:20:05You ignored me last night
00:20:08Did you forget?
00:20:10I'm really busy right now, can't you just hold it in?
00:20:14Why should I hold it in? What did you buy me for, then?
00:20:19His tone was aggressive
00:20:20I hesitated for a moment
00:20:22Then swiped left and tapped
00:20:24Do not disturb
00:20:30Oh my, if it isn't Chloe!
00:20:33A regular customer, please come right in
00:20:37There must have been something wrong with me
00:20:41Whenever I got angry, I would run straight back to that shady shop
00:20:48Seeing a massive cash cow like me arrive
00:20:51The boss smiled so wide the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes crinkled like blooming flowers
00:20:58His tone was almost sycophantic
00:21:01What wind brings you here again?
00:21:05Oh right, I just got a few deep-sea murphits in
00:21:08And they've got plenty of stamina
00:21:10Two people couldn't even hold one down
00:21:13Want to take a look?
00:21:18You have the nerve to bring that up
00:21:21Look at this scar
00:21:23I sneered, pointing at the dark bruise on my neck
00:21:27You said the incubus was clingy back then
00:21:30Is this what you meant by clingy?
00:21:34The boss rubbed the tip of his nose
00:21:36A flash of guilt in his eyes
00:21:40Well, well, every incubus does a different personality
00:21:45We don't do returns
00:21:47I made that very clear to you last time
00:21:49Besides, you've already used him
00:21:51If you return him to me
00:21:52I won't be able to sell him anyway
00:21:56I'm not here for a return
00:21:57Just browsing
00:22:01Hearing that I wasn't here to cause trouble
00:22:03The boss let out a long sigh of relief
00:22:06Alright, alright
00:22:07Browse all you want
00:22:16The shop was quite large with many cages
00:22:20To please the customers
00:22:21Every incubus was dressed up brightly
00:22:23And looked spotlessly clean
00:22:26But I walked a huge circle around the place
00:22:28And still didn't catch sight of Ezra
00:22:31Last time I was here
00:22:32Wasn't there another in Cuptus
00:22:34Who looked exactly like Milo?
00:22:36Was he bought by someone?
00:22:39Really curious
00:22:40I turned back and asked
00:22:41After taking only a few steps
00:22:45The boss's already dark face
00:22:47Instantly darkened several degrees
00:22:50His brows furrowed so tightly
00:22:52They could crush a fly
00:22:56Sigh
00:22:57I get a headache just mentioning him
00:23:00Even though he's still a virgin
00:23:02He's a cripple with a limp
00:23:05Who would want him?
00:23:07A complete money loser
00:23:09He got sick again these past few days
00:23:12So I locked him in the warehouse
00:23:14Leaving him to fend for himself?
00:23:17After he spoke
00:23:18My heart suddenly sank
00:23:21To tell you the truth
00:23:22My shop is
00:23:23Having trouble with cash flow right now
00:23:26I really don't have extra money to treat him
00:23:29The boss tacitly agreed
00:23:32Where is the warehouse located?
00:23:33The elevator reached the first basement floor
00:23:37It was like an ice cellar
00:23:39Where you couldn't see your fingers in front of you
00:23:44I could only see the path under my feet
00:23:46By the light of my phone
00:23:53Two steps later
00:23:54That weak voice became exceptionally clear
00:23:58I turned my phone's brightness to the maximum
00:24:00And shone it in front of me
00:24:03In a rusty iron cage
00:24:05A tall man was curled up in a corner
00:24:07Covered with weeds
00:24:10Hearing the noise
00:24:11He raised his eyes and looked over
00:24:15The face that originally looked
00:24:17Very much like Milo
00:24:18Had become even more emaciated
00:24:20Due to his illness
00:24:23It also made people's hearts ache even more
00:24:27Can you bury me tomorrow?
00:24:31Today is my birthday
00:24:32And I want to live through today
00:24:38Ezra didn't recognize me
00:24:41Thinking I was a staff member of the shop
00:24:43Coming to collect his body
00:24:46I leaned closer and through the iron bars
00:24:48Called him softly
00:24:51Ezra, it's me
00:24:52The buyer who adopted your brother
00:24:55It's Chloe
00:24:56He murmured softly
00:24:58He murmured softly
00:25:02He murmured softly
00:25:22Give, give a little before taking him away
00:25:25You have to let me recoup some of my costs
00:25:28Right?
00:25:30The profiteer smiled playfully
00:25:32Holding Ezra's contract
00:25:35But when he handed it to me
00:25:37He didn't intend to let go
00:25:40I sighed
00:25:42How much do you want?
00:25:44His twin brother was $800,000
00:25:46Let's round this one off
00:25:48A rock bottom price
00:25:50Just give me $100,000
00:25:54And I'll throw in two exquisite collars for free
00:25:58Inside the hospital
00:26:00I carefully wiped the dust off Ezra's face
00:26:03And pulled the blanket up to his shoulders
00:26:06Then I went to the lobby to pay the fees
00:26:09And made a call to the real estate agent
00:26:13Completely finalizing the sale of the house
00:26:21In the hospital corridor
00:26:23I turned off the speakerphone
00:26:27But the irritable male voice on the other end
00:26:30Was still loud and grating
00:26:33Chloe, so you finally decided to answer your phone
00:26:37Do you have any idea how many times I've called?
00:26:42What's wrong with you?
00:26:43Are you just not planning on coming back?
00:26:46I had been running around all day
00:26:48And half my leg was numb
00:26:51I had absolutely no energy to coax him
00:26:56I told you I'm busy
00:26:59You're an adult incubiva
00:27:01And the house is full of my scent
00:27:02You won't starve to death anytime soon
00:27:05If you're really desperate
00:27:08There's half a carton of milk I drank from in the fridge
00:27:11Go have that
00:27:13Who wants your stupid milk?
00:27:15I'm asking why you aren't coming back
00:27:19Whenever I run off you drag right play
00:27:21But when it's your turn to disappear
00:27:23What's that supposed to mean?
00:27:26Milo was relentless
00:27:27Insisting that I return immediately
00:27:30Rubbing my temples
00:27:32I had no choice but to tell him the truth
00:27:36Your brother got sick
00:27:38His shady boss refused to treat him
00:27:40And he almost died
00:27:47The doctor said Ezra just had a common cold
00:27:51But it had dragged on for too long without treatment
00:27:54Plus malnutrition
00:27:57So now he needs to rest quietly for a while to recover
00:28:02Fortunately, it wasn't anything serious
00:28:06When I returned to the ward
00:28:08Ezra was already awake
00:28:11Looking at me with red eyes
00:28:16Chloe, I'm sorry to trouble you
00:28:19The man apologized to me uneasily with a hoarse voice
00:28:24He still didn't know I had bought him
00:28:28Drink some water first
00:28:32I went to the water dispenser and got a cup of warm water
00:28:36Ezra habitually raised the arm with the four needle in the back of his hand
00:28:41But I held it down
00:28:42Never mind, don't move
00:28:45I'll feed you
00:28:47The man drank very eagerly
00:28:50A few drops of water ran down his chin and dripped onto his Adam's apple
00:28:55Seeing this, I took a tissue from my pocket and casually wiped it away
00:29:02Chloe
00:29:03Will the boss pay you for my harpernization expenses?
00:29:08After a long while, Ezra asked in a humble tone
00:29:13You don't need to worry about that
00:29:16Just focus on recovering for now
00:29:19When forced to choose between the two of them last year, I didn't choose him
00:29:24I didn't know if Ezra held any resentment toward me
00:29:28Or if he could accept me as his master
00:29:33I figured I'd let him stay in the hospital first
00:29:38And ask for his thoughts once he recovered
00:29:43If he refused to acknowledge me, I wouldn't force him to stay
00:29:47Ezra's thin lips parted slightly
00:29:51Just as he was about to speak, my phone suddenly rang
00:29:57Get some more sleep, I'm gonna step out to take this call
00:30:01The man obediently nodded, watching me as I left the room
00:30:11When I got home, the floor by the door was covered in shattered glass
00:30:16I didn't even need to guess who did it
00:30:19The young man sat on the sofa with his arms crossed, his short hair a mess
00:30:24He must have just finished throwing a tantrum
00:30:30How's my brother?
00:30:31Milo asked grumpily
00:30:32Much better
00:30:34Do you want to go see him?
00:30:36After bending down to change my shoes, I replied to him and walked straight to the balcony
00:30:42Pulling out a suitcase to start packing
00:30:47Since when are you so kind-hearted?
00:30:50Last time I went to see my brother, you specifically followed me
00:30:54I didn't say anything, just sped up my movements, forcefully stuffing clothes into the suitcase
00:31:01After a few seconds of silence, the young man stood up and walked toward me
00:31:07Hey, what are you planning?
00:31:10About what?
00:31:12My brother
00:31:14You said the shop doesn't want him anymore, so what's he gonna do now?
00:31:18I looked up, my tone calm
00:31:21I'll take care of him for now, of course
00:31:24Milo froze, and then his eyes widened in disbelief
00:31:29You'll take care of him?
00:31:33With what money?
00:31:35You can barely afford to keep me
00:31:37And now you want to bring my brother into this dump too?
00:31:42Are you gonna make him sleep on the floor?
00:31:49Thinking of the miserable state Ezra was in, locked in that iron cage
00:31:55I found the current Milo utterly ridiculous in comparison
00:31:59I suddenly lost control of my tone
00:32:03Do you think your brother is just like you, some precious little young master?
00:32:08After I said that, Milo naturally threw a fit
00:32:12He snatched the freshly folded clothes right out of my hands
00:32:17Threw them onto the bed and yelled angrily
00:32:20What's that supposed to mean?
00:32:22You think I'm too picky and my brother is easier to please?
00:32:25I didn't want to argue with this drama queen
00:32:29I stayed silent, reaching out to pick up the clothes from the bed and folding them again
00:32:34He was so angry that the tail behind him was thrashing wildly
00:32:40Chloe, I advise you to quickly find a good family to send my brother to
00:32:44You can't afford to keep both of us
00:32:46Yeah, I have no money
00:32:48So, to buy your brother's freedom, I sold this apartment
00:32:53Don't just stand there
00:32:55Go pack your bags
00:32:56We're moving tomorrow
00:32:59Milo froze in place, staring in sheer disbelief
00:33:03What?
00:33:04You even sold our house?
00:33:07Just for my brother?
00:33:14In the end, the house sold for $650,000
00:33:19After paying off the bosses I owe you, I still had a few hundred thousand in savings
00:33:27Enough to find a comfortable apartment to rent
00:33:31But the move was so rushed
00:33:35I couldn't find a satisfactory place right away
00:33:40I settled for a cheap basement on a short-term lease, fully furnished and ready to move in
00:33:45Ezra was being discharged from the hospital today
00:33:50I was busy with work, so I had to ask Milo to pick him up
00:33:56You haven't seen your brother in a long time, you must miss him
00:34:00Don't worry, I'm really going to work
00:34:04I don't have time to stalk you or eavesdrop on your conversation
00:34:12You two can talk freely
00:34:16I smiled faintly and handed over the two spare keys to the basement
00:34:23Remember to give one to your brother
00:34:26Milo refused to take them, so I shoved them into his hand
00:34:31The smile faded from my face
00:34:35Can you just listen for once?
00:34:42I'm really tired
00:34:43Only then did Milo reluctantly head out
00:34:48Once at the office, I started processing the backlog of files and documents
00:34:54During that time, Milo sent a message saying they had arrived home
00:35:00My brother isn't suited for this place
00:35:02It's too damp
00:35:03The walls are covered in cobwebers and his leg is still injured
00:35:10He definitely won't be able to handle it when the weather gets cold
00:35:13Ask your friends or colleagues if anyone wants him
00:35:16Don't let him suffer here with us
00:35:23Milo sure knows how to worry
00:35:25I was thinking the same thing
00:35:28But the prerequisite was to ask for Ezra's own opinion first
00:35:34After work, I went to the supermarket and bought a bag of daily necessities for Ezra
00:35:40When I got back, I found him wearing Milo's old t-shirt
00:35:44The man was standing in the kitchen, scrubbing the greasy range hood
00:35:49Milo was sweeping the floor in the living room
00:35:53This basement was on the first underground floor
00:35:57It wasn't spacious, but it had a fully equipped kitchen, living room, and bathroom
00:36:04The only downside was the lack of bedrooms
00:36:06There was only one
00:36:10Ezra, you just got out of the hospital
00:36:15You need to rest properly
00:36:17I'll handle this
00:36:19I placed the bag on the coffee table and called him over
00:36:24Try these slippers on first and see if they fit
00:36:30I bought them based on Milo's shoe size
00:36:33I only had to say it once
00:36:37Ezra immediately put down the rag, washed his hands, and came over to me
00:36:44Chloe, are you going to take me in?
00:36:47His eyes were bright and exceptionally beautiful
00:36:50I spoke with hesitation
00:36:52This is entirely up to you
00:36:55If you're not willing, I won't
00:36:57Before I could finish, Ezra eagerly interrupted
00:37:01I'm willing!
00:37:06I'm very willing
00:37:08I can do chores, cook, and go out to work
00:37:14As long as I can stay by your side, I'll do anything
00:37:16Ezra eagerly replied
00:37:19Meanwhile, Milo, standing to the side with a scowl
00:37:22Gave a cold snort and ran out to the balcony for some fresh air
00:37:28You can work too?
00:37:31I was quite curious
00:37:33Because for the past year, Milo did nothing but go out to play or give me the cold shoulder at
00:37:38home
00:37:40I always thought an incubus was just a pretty vase
00:37:43Although my leg is a bit crippled, my daily mobility is fine
00:37:48I've worked as a cleaner in the shop and learnt many skills
00:37:53Don't worry, Master, I can make money
00:37:57Ezra calling me, Master, made my face flush with a hint of embarrassment
00:38:03Just call me by my name
00:38:04Sit for a while, I'll go make dinner
00:38:09The man grabbed my wrist
00:38:13Chloe, dinner is already ready
00:38:16I had Milo go buy groceries this afternoon
00:38:19I figured since you have to work every day, you shouldn't have to be so exhausted when you get back
00:38:24It felt exactly like a dream
00:38:27I sat at the dining table, facing a lavish spread of all my favorite dishes
00:38:32Ezra thoughtfully placed food into my bowl
00:38:37Master, once you put your fingerpint on my contract
00:38:41You only need to give me the water you've drank from every day
00:38:45I paused my chopsticks and asked in confusion
00:38:50Is that really enough?
00:38:58It seemed Ezra had never considered developing a romantic relationship with me
00:39:03He nodded cautiously
00:39:07Sitting across from me, Milo, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke up
00:39:15Brother, why do you have to put yourself so low?
00:39:19She sold the house she lived in for years, just for you
00:39:22So that's how it is
00:39:25Chloe, you've really sacrificed too much for me
00:39:29I truly never thought anyone would love me this much
00:39:33As Ezra spoke, tears were about to fall from his eyes
00:39:38I quickly pulled out a tissue and handed it over
00:39:42This is what a people-pleasing incubus who has never been loved is like
00:39:48Watching him made me want to shed tears too
00:39:52Don't cry
00:39:54No one will ever lock you in a cage again
00:39:57The combative incubus beside us was indignant, slamming his spoon and bowl down, making a loud clatter
00:40:06I frowned and looked over
00:40:09What's wrong with you now?
00:40:11Milo lowered his head, picking at his fingertips
00:40:15Nothing
00:40:15After dinner, I gathered the dishes to wash them
00:40:19But Ezra wouldn't let me into the kitchen
00:40:23Let me wash them
00:40:25It'll be done in no time
00:40:26And I haven't even taken off my apron yet
00:40:28No way
00:40:29I can't let you do everything
00:40:32Your legs will hurt if you stand for too long
00:40:35I disagreed
00:40:36At this moment, the younger man, still sitting on the stool, suddenly stood up
00:40:42All this pushing and pulling just to wash some dishes
00:40:44So annoying
00:40:45I'll wash them, let me do it
00:40:47The sun must be rising from the west
00:40:50How rare
00:40:52Milo actually volunteered to wash the dishes
00:41:02Since there was only one bedroom, I thought about laying another quilt on the living room sofa
00:41:08But once I put it down, I realized the sofa was too small, far from enough for the physique of
00:41:13an adult incubus
00:41:15Ezra saw my dilemma
00:41:16He picked up the old quilt from the sofa and walked toward the utility room that hadn't been fully cleaned
00:41:22out yet
00:41:23What are you doing?
00:41:25The man pushed open the utility room door, revealing an iron bed frame that had already been set up inside
00:41:32He pointed it out to me, smiling shyly
00:41:35I can just sleep here from now on
00:41:38It's quite spacious
00:41:39The more understanding Ezra was, the more I regretted and feared
00:41:44If I hadn't gone to the black market that day, would he have been gone long ago?
00:41:50I told him with a hoarse voice
00:41:54You don't have to do this
00:41:58I still have money, and I will treat you very, very well from now on
00:42:03But the man shook his head, saying he was very content
00:42:09You saved my life
00:42:11And you've already been good enough to me
00:42:20My foot is bad, I walk awkwardly
00:42:25And I've gotten thin now
00:42:28Compared to my brother
00:42:30I really have no advantages
00:42:33Just treat me as a free cleaner
00:42:35Or a punching bag when you're angry
00:42:38As long as I can provide meaningful value to you
00:42:41Feel free to order me around
00:42:48I was just feeling touched
00:42:50When suddenly, a certain young man's sarcastic voice came from behind
00:42:57Oh, oh, oh, feel free to order me around
00:43:00Brother, you've been running your mouth all night
00:43:03Go to sleep already
00:43:06What's with this whole loyal servant act?
00:43:09I'm speechless
00:43:10I turned around in shock
00:43:14Milo, how can you speak to your brother like that?
00:43:17The young man sneered
00:43:19He's just trying to usurp someone's place
00:43:22Don't tell me you can't see it
00:43:23What are you talking about?
00:43:26You're being ridiculous
00:43:27He's acting and playing the victim, can't you see?
00:43:31Don't you know that an incantos becomes extremely petty after acknowledging a master?
00:43:36Well, I really didn't know that
00:43:40Because the incubus I kept never acknowledged me as his master
00:43:45Every day, apart from making me mad
00:43:47He just gossiped behind my back about how I abused him
00:43:54Milo, you're the petty one here
00:43:56Your brother even volunteered to sleep in the storage room
00:43:59How is that trying to usurp someone's place?
00:44:06Your words are always so harsh
00:44:08I had already lost all expectations for Milo
00:44:12But I didn't expect that he wouldn't just insult me
00:44:15Even his brother would get scolded upon arriving
00:44:22Milo acted like he was crazy
00:44:26Suddenly grabbing Ezra by the collar and pushing him outward
00:44:31This is my home to begin with
00:44:33And that is my master
00:44:34Get out, get out
00:44:36Ezra stumbled from the push, nearly falling over
00:44:40Unable to bear it any longer
00:44:42I ran into the bedroom
00:44:43Grabbed the contract from under my pillow
00:44:46And threw it fiercely onto the floor
00:44:50Milo, get out
00:44:51Ever since the time he bit me
00:44:53I had been considering whether it was time to let go
00:44:57But I always felt there was still room to salvage things
00:45:01But now, he was still so unreasonable
00:45:04Still refusing to change
00:45:07I couldn't see a single shred of hope in him
00:45:10Milo let go
00:45:12He stared blankly at the contract on the floor
00:45:14With his name on it
00:45:16Then he looked up at me
00:45:17His lips trembling
00:45:21You're telling me
00:45:22To get out?
00:45:27I let out a deep sigh
00:45:28Composed my emotions
00:45:29And bent down to pick up the certificate
00:45:31Marking his belonging
00:45:35I handed it over calmly
00:45:38I'm asking you to leave
00:45:40To set you free
00:45:44Sorry
00:45:44My wording was inappropriate just now
00:45:53Ezra reached out and tugged at my sleeve
00:45:55His eyes full of worry
00:45:57As he stood in the middle to make peace
00:46:01I'm sorry
00:46:02Please don't fight because of me
00:46:07If my brother isn't happy with it
00:46:08I'll move out
00:46:11Just don't fight
00:46:13It's not because of you
00:46:15We were never meant to be together anyway
00:46:18You should know
00:46:19He never liked me from the very beginning
00:46:23Letting him go is exactly what he wants
00:46:28I explained expressionlessly
00:46:30Waving the contract in my hand
00:46:31To signal him to take it
00:46:34But Milo stood there like a block of wood
00:46:38Aside from his heavy, ragged breathing
00:46:41He refused to lift a hand
00:46:46Why aren't you saying anything?
00:46:50I was very confused
00:46:53Was it wrong to let him go to?
00:46:55Milo's eyes turned red
00:46:57It was the first time I had ever seen
00:46:59Such a wronged expression on his face
00:47:02The young man pursed his lips
00:47:03Trying desperately to hold back his emotions
00:47:07He blinked and looked up at the ceiling
00:47:09Not wanting his tears to fall
00:47:12But the teardrop still rolled down
00:47:14From the corners of his eyes
00:47:22I didn't understand what there was to cry about
00:47:26Ezra stood to the side
00:47:27And offered Milo a tissue
00:47:30But he refused it
00:47:32Abruptly turning his face away
00:47:35Just ignore him
00:47:40You go sleep in my bedroom first
00:47:42At this moment
00:47:43Only Milo and I were left in the living room
00:47:47I wanted to talk to him calmly
00:47:50Even though I don't know what you're feeling so wronged about
00:47:54You won't be able to find a place to live if you go out now
00:47:58You can stay here for now
00:47:59And leave whenever you find your next place
00:48:02The man, who had been stubbornly holding back his words
00:48:05Suddenly burst out crying upon hearing me say this
00:48:10How?
00:48:11How could you be like this?
00:48:13Milo covered his face with both hands
00:48:15His voice slipping out intermittently through his fingers
00:48:20Like what?
00:48:23Haven't I been good enough to you?
00:48:26I'm even letting you go
00:48:27I tolerated all his tantrums
00:48:29And I gave him the freedom he wanted
00:48:32Why was he never satisfied?
00:48:37But you spent 800,000
00:48:39Trading all your money for me
00:48:43Are you really willing to let me leave?
00:48:47I wasn't
00:48:49His figure and looks were indeed excellent
00:48:51I had chosen him after endless searching
00:48:55But there was no other way
00:48:57He was only suited to be pampered by a wealthy family
00:49:01If you feel bad about it, you can pay me back
00:49:04Even just a small portion is fine
00:49:06I said
00:49:12Milo wiped his own tears away
00:49:14Slowly inching closer until he rested his head on my shoulder
00:49:20Don't abandon me just because you have my brother now, okay?
00:49:25I pushed him away
00:49:27I pushed him away
00:49:28Sigh
00:49:29Sigh
00:49:29Why don't you understand?
00:49:32It's not because of your brother
00:49:33For the next week, I didn't speak a single word to Milo
00:49:37Even though he acted like a completely different incubus
00:49:40Taking the initiative to clean and do chores
00:49:45And sleeping in the storage room at night without complaint
00:49:49But I still urged him
00:49:50You should go
00:49:52You're just used to staying by my side and afraid to go out
00:49:57When you actually go out and see the world, you'll endingly live me more comfortable
00:50:02Milo finally couldn't take it anymore
00:50:05Grabbing his luggage, he shot a glare at Ezra passing by
00:50:08And stormed out in a huff
00:50:11Ezra watched the young man's back
00:50:14After he had gone far, he went back to earnestly wiping the table
00:50:18Casually asking
00:50:22Chloe, what do you want to eat for dinner?
00:50:27I'll go buy groceries in a bit
00:50:30Waiting until the early hours of the morning
00:50:34Milo, who had run away, regretted it
00:50:39Covered in dirt, he squatted in the hallway, crying secretly
00:50:43Truly useless
00:50:48I heard the noise but didn't open the door
00:50:51I merely reminded Ezra that we were moving to our new home tomorrow
00:50:56Milo slept leaning against the door all night
00:51:00The next day, he went out again to find his own way
00:51:04Because of Ezra's arrival, my life slowly began to improve
00:51:08Every time I came back, it was no longer a mess
00:51:12But a clean and tidy house, greeted by the mouth-watering aroma of food
00:51:18He even wanted to work at a bubble tea shop to help with household expenses
00:51:24But I worried that standing for too long would harm his health
00:51:28I can support you
00:51:31You don't have to work so hard
00:51:34But Ezra couldn't sit idle
00:51:36Seeing people live streaming crafts and knitting scarves online, I bought him some craft materials and yarn
00:51:43About another month passed
00:51:47One evening after work, I came out of the company and saw Milo
00:51:51He was a bit tanner, wearing work clothes and cotton linen gloves, looking like he had just finished a blue
00:51:57collar gig
00:51:59He stretched his lips, trying to greet me
00:52:05As soon as Milo opened his mouth, the corners of his lips dropped
00:52:11I've saved up some money to compensate you, Master
00:52:15Can I come see you every month from now on?
00:52:19Seeing Milo's eyes full of exhaustion now, I didn't have the heart to refuse again
00:52:26Alright, if paying me back gives you peace of mind, then I'll accept it
00:52:31Also, I am no longer your master
00:52:34After returning home, Ezra squatted down with a smile, untying my shoelaces for me
00:52:39He was like this every time, serving me with the utmost care
00:52:44Even if I told him it wasn't necessary, he would still do it the next day
00:52:50Did my brother come looking for you again?
00:52:53The man touched my ankle, his gaze traveling upward
00:52:57His sense of dependence on me, growing ever stronger
00:53:02He wants to pay me back
00:53:06Just paying you back?
00:53:08Ezra said, still wearing a smile
00:53:11Chloe, don't see him again
00:53:14Let him fend for himself
00:53:17My hand holding the water glass paused
00:53:19For a moment, I couldn't answer
00:53:24Then, the man took out the scarf he had knitted from the cabinet
00:53:27And gently wrapped it around my neck
00:53:36Try it on
00:53:38Do you like it?
00:53:40If you don't like it, I'll take it and burn it
00:53:43Then knit a new one
00:53:45My heart skipped a beat and I hesitated before speaking
00:53:51Ezra, how about you go out and find a job?
00:53:54Ezra lowered his voice
00:53:56Are you getting annoyed with me?
00:53:59It wasn't that I found him annoying, but rather that he was getting increasingly clingy
00:54:06You're making me too much of a priority
00:54:08And it's going to ruin your own mood
00:54:13But you are important
00:54:18I'd only be sad if you didn't let me focus on you
00:54:24In the middle of the night, Ezra would always hold me tight
00:54:27As if terrified, I might suddenly run away
00:54:30He even questioned me when I went to the bathroom
00:54:34I had to wait until daytime when I went to the office to look up his reactions online
00:54:40Some experts said this was typical emotional paranoia caused by a lack of love
00:54:47If not corrected in time, it would only get worse later on
00:54:51Sure enough, sometimes when I was sleeping soundly at night, I would hear Ezra wake up terrified from a nightmare
00:55:02A grown man, trembling all over, burrowing into my arms
00:55:07I quickly patted his back, telling him I was there
00:55:12Ezra looked up
00:55:15Will you throw me away in the future too?
00:55:20No, of course not
00:55:22But you got off work half an hour later than usual today
00:55:25Did you take in another incubus?
00:55:28Can you tell me?
00:55:29I don't mind, but could you just tell me first?
00:55:33I patiently explained why I was half an hour late
00:55:37Although Ezra said
00:55:39I believe you
00:55:42His eyes still looked anxious
00:55:45The people-pleasing incubus gradually turned into a love-begging incubus
00:55:50And he was always overly suspicious
00:55:55The following month, Milo arrived right on time to repay the money
00:56:00I hadn't seen him in a while, and he had gotten a bit bulkier from his blue-collar gig
00:56:06Master, I made $20,000 this month
00:56:11Here you go
00:56:12His tone was proud
00:56:15Meanwhile, I was so sleepy I couldn't keep my eyes open
00:56:19Having been kept awake all night by Ezra's fussing
00:56:24Hmm, are you planning to give it all back to me?
00:56:31Keep some for yourself
00:56:33I yawned
00:56:35I don't have a sense of taste, so just eating some plain white rice to fill my stomach is fine
00:56:40It doesn't cost much
00:56:43Milo had really changed a lot
00:56:47I simply couldn't connect the young man standing in front of me with the shrew who was yelling at me
00:56:52two months ago
00:56:55Just as I was about to take the money, my phone rang
00:57:00Hold on
00:57:03Hello, Ezra, what's up?
00:57:05Why hasn't Master come back yet?
00:57:07Did you go see someone else?
00:57:11I'm just asking casually, it's okay if you don't want to tell me
00:57:15I was utterly exhausted
00:57:20Milo just came to pay me back today, that's all
00:57:25Oh, then who was the male colleague that gave you flowers yesterday?
00:57:30The male colleague who gave me flowers yesterday?
00:57:34How did he know?
00:57:36I threw those flowers straight into the trash can downstairs at the office right after receiving them
00:57:43I hung up the phone with a complicated expression
00:57:49Milo hadn't left yet, he said
00:57:55My brother's been stalking you these billion these past few days
00:57:59I was shocked
00:58:01How do you know?
00:58:06Because when I wasn't working, I'd secretly come to see you two and I bumped into him
00:58:11I told you he was manipulative
00:58:13I irritably told Milo to shut up
00:58:19So what if he's manipulative?
00:58:22He's still better than you
00:58:24In the third month after moving to the new house
00:58:27I really couldn't stand Ezra's paranoid attention anymore
00:58:31Even when I went grocery shopping and passed by the seafood section
00:58:36He would carefully sniff my scent when I got back
00:58:42Asking why I smelled like rotten fish and shrimp
00:58:44And if I was planning to keep another mermaid
00:58:50So, I accepted Milo's idea and simply confirmed Ezra's suspicions
00:58:58Actually, I still have lingering feelings for Milo
00:59:04Would you agree to let me keep him again?
00:59:07Otherwise I'll always be tempted to keep some other kind of incubetta
00:59:12That night, Ezra cried for a long time, constantly muttering
00:59:18I knew it
00:59:20I guessed right
00:59:22I just knew it
00:59:25But after crying, he calmed down
00:59:30Then you'd better just keep Milo
00:59:32At least he's stupid
00:59:35If you bring in a new species, I'm afraid I'll be able to compete
00:59:39Me
00:59:42As expected of twins, they have each other's minds figured out so thoroughly
00:59:46Well, it turns out they only behave when they keep each other in check
00:59:52Sigh, I've finally found the right way to raise them
