"Sister, are you sure that you don't want—"
You Yizhen paused in the middle of his sentence as he took in the sight in front of him. You Ruojin was sitting on the bed, with her back to him and on her back all kinds of scars, old and new—blue and black—were scattered all over the pale skin, which looked so horrifying that it scared You Yizhen.
His eyes widened and the hand that was clutching the doorknob fell down on his side limply.
"What—" he raised his voice, wanting to question his sister about the scars that were etched on her back but before he could say anything, with her hand against his mouth, You Ruojin pulled her brother inside the room and closed the door.
"Don't—don't make a noise, alright?" She pleaded with You Yizhen as You Ruojin was worried that he would start screaming the second she would let go of him.
