Old Injury Chapter extra5 Discussion

Surprisingly liked this a lot. I came to read the rest after the manhua ended too abruptly. This story had a lot of angst I personally believe happened to BOTH the ML and MC.

Spoiler

ML was basically forced to have s*x THREE times by the same type of scheme. He was locked in a room with someone and induced into heat. They used tranquilizers and many other things the first time and the goals of those evil people were successful as Song Mo was born from it. The second time was zhu li locking ML and MC in a room together. The 3rd time was a new marriage candidate but ML successfully got away by getting rid of his own glands. So after the first two times I do understand ML's own trauma after being forced to do it with others so many times. Because of it, his trust was so low.

MC's suffering was self-explanatory since that's what the POV of the story was set in so it shows what he's been through.

The one thing is that the villains don't seem to get much satisfying punishment. At most, MC's mom just ended up married to a dude who was failing in his business due to ML's family. Zhu Li was a marked omega who got pregnant and was being investigated by police. But there was no further update as to if he really got punishment. He was very relaxed the entire time and felt like everything went according to his plans anyway. The ones who put ML in that room locked up, at most got a lecture and was pressured by intimidation from another family member and ML's dad. ML's dad in a way was considered a villain since he also didn't protest when ML was first forced the first time as well as when beating ML. But I guess he somewhat got redeemed since he helped the last time when ML was locked up and protested this time, as well as doted on his grandchildren.

On the plus side, the ending parts was mostly sweet. Though I don't think there was a true chasing arc or redemption arc in my opinion. But due to the misunderstandings and trauma of both I didn't blame them. The MC mainly stayed with the ML cause he was pregnant again and was diagnosed with an illness believing he only had limited time so he just let himself be taken care of by ML. Thus ML was real nice and took care of him. That's how it naturally happened where they got closer.
