Rebirth of Brotherly Love | Detailed Summary

Ch 18

The next morning, the sun shone through the window into the bedroom, revealing a large and neat bed.
　　
On the double bed, two young men lay down. One of them was obviously afraid of cold. The whole quilt was wrapped around tight. The other one was very casual. The thin blanket only covered at the waist and his limbs stretched out freely. 
　　
Although the distance between them was one foot apart, the two men's hands were gently held together in the bed.
　　
An Luo slowly opened his eyes, his body immediately tightened.
　　
He was keenly aware of the changes in the environment - soft bed, warm yellow walls, exquisite chandelier overhead, military uniforms hanging on hangers - this is clearly not the bedroom he fell asleep in.
　　
It's scary to wake up in a different bedroom. What's more terrifying than this is that there is another person on the bed. 

Was he...reborn again to somewhere else?
　　
An Luo groaned, turned his head and saw the face of a young man who was close at hand - it was An Ze.
　　
Looks very handsome. If a photographer takes a picture of him at this time, he can directly make a cover model for a fashion magazine without any processing.
　　
Looking at An ze's sleeping face, An Luo's heart only felt resentful. He has never slept with anyone. How can An ze sleep beside him? Even holding his hand?!
　　
To have been brought here without waking, he must have been drugged. He can't imagine what use An Ze would have in drugging him and taking him here.
　　
Seeing An ze starting to wake up, An Luo immediately closed his eyes and pretends to be asleep. 

Whatever An Ze's reason An Luo doesn't want a direct confrontation. He decides it is best to stay calm and wait.

An Ze woke up, asked An Luo if he was up. An Luo staid quiet. An Ze went out on the balcony and called father at his work office on the office line. Not the cell phone.  

An Ze explained to father about the bug in the piture frame in An Luo's room. He told father that he took An Luo to the military base for his safety. He doesn't even trust to use cell phones as they may be tampered with.
　　
Father An Yu surprised, "You mean, someone at home ...... is acting against him,"
　　
An Ze answered. "The last time he disappeared was unusual. We did not receive any blackmail calls from the robbers. The police investigation has no clues at the moment. Do you think this really was a kidnapping?"
　
"If someone hadn't happened to pass by and found brother, he would have died. Those people are obviously not after money, but... want his life." 

They try to think of any business rivals they may have offended, but none have been serious enough to want to kill over. Also, An Luo isn't even active in the business yet. So why would a business associate target him specifically?

An Ze looked back at the sleeping brother in the bed, his eyes gradually deepened. "It is not necessarily an enemy in business, but it may be other reasons. After all... Grandpa has never officially announced who will inherit the family business."
　　
"An Ze." An Yu interrupted him and his tone became severe. "Are you doubting An Yan and An Mo?"
　　
"I hope not them. I only know, no matter who it is, I won't let them succeed. That's all, Dad, you are busy, I'll hang up first." The phone was hung up.
　　
An Ze has been very sensible since he was a child. He rarely caused his family to worry about him. Even when he made the decision to attend a military school, no one in the family objected because he was always the most rational and determined one among the brothers. 

He is also the hardest to control. An Ze makes his own decisions without input from his father or grandfather and will even go against their wishes.

When An Ze came back from the balcony, An Luo had opened his eyes. He went to the bed and whispered, "Awake? Did you sleep well last night? "
　　
An Luo looked at him and said, "I was given a sleeping pill, so of course I slept well."
　　　　
After a long time, An Luo then said, "Are you going to give me an explanation?"
　　
An Ze looked directly at An Luo's eyes. "An explanation about what?"
　　
An Luo said, "An explanation for the drug in the food last night."
　　
"You can rest assured that I only use short-acting hypnotics that last for less than six hours. It doesn't hurt people's bodies. An Yan and An Mo should wake up now." 
　　
"I don't have any interest in pursuing what medicine you used for me. What I want to know is... You have taken a lot of trouble to take me away. What is the purpose?"
　　
An ze paused, then whispered, "You instantly think my aim is something bad?
　　
An Luo looked at him without answering.
　　
An Ze smiled and said, "I just want to protect you."
　　
Under the sunlight, the smile on his lips seemed to hold an underlying bitterness.
　　
"I found a bug in the photo frame as you said. Your intuition is not wrong. You were actually being watched before, and you are now unable to move your legs. If someone wants to go against you, what could you do?"
　　
"..." An Luo is silent.
　　
"This is the Xilin Military Base. It will be very safe to stay here. I also contacted the military hospital. The best orthopedic specialist in the hospital will give you treatment..."
　　
"Is this different from house arrest?" An Luo interrupted him unpleasantly.
　　
An Ze silent for a moment shrugged and said, "If that's how you see it, but in your heart, I have never been a good person."
　　
An Luo frowned at him.
　　
An Ze whispered, "Will you call for help, resist, run away, or stay here and be safe?" The atmosphere is a bit stiff.
　　
The silent confrontation lasted for a long time, An Luo finally turned his eyes away and whispered, "Okay, I'll stay." 

An Ze looked at him with amazement. He thought that his brother would scream at him.

Looking at his expressionless face, An ze couldn't help but whispered: "Brother... isn't angry with me?"
　　
An Luo looked up at him. "Why should I be angry with you?"
　　
"Regardless of your wishes, I secretly took you away and put you under house arrest."
　　
"It doesn't matter." An luo gently raised his eyebrows. "It's just a change of bedroom. I will be in your care in the days to come. It doesn't make any sense to fight with you."
　　
"..." An ze didn't know what to say.

"I want to go to the bathroom, help me." An Luo reached out.

An Ze rushed to the bed and held his hand. He pushed the wheelchair over and carefully took him to the wheelchair.
