So Shen Xun was waiting, embracing that tiny sliver of hope.
Maybe because he was Su Lu's blood-related older brother, he was somewhat similar to her in dealing with emotions.
Somewhat rigid in their principles, but also stubborn.
Clearly waiting, but just couldn't compromise.
When he didn't get what he was waiting for, no matter how much it hurt, he endured it and left on his own.
As soon as Su Lu got home, she saw Su Zhe sitting alone on the sofa, holding his phone as if he was looking at it, but actually there was no focus in his eyes, and the phone screen had long since gone dark.
"Brother?" Su Lu called out to him, "Older brother?"
"Hmm?" Su Zhe came back to his senses, "You're back?"
"Yeah." Su Lu nodded, not knowing what else to say, so she kept silent.
Su Zhe waited for her to speak, but when she didn't, he pursed his lips and could only ask proactively, "He... your brother, did he leave?"
