Lu Yumo's eyes were red. Even though he tried his best to hold his tears back because of his pride as a man, it was a wasted effort. Tears slowly welled out of his eyes and streamed down his cheeks.
Xu Wei looked at him worriedly and asked, "What's wrong, sweetie?"
Lu Yumo did not reply. Seeing that her brother was fighting back tears, Fu Zhi chimed in, "He's fine. I guess he's just got bricks in his eyes."
What a reasonable and logical answer.
Thanks to Fu Zhi, Lu Yumo allowed two more tears to fall from his eyes, and Lu Jingqing nearly laughed.
At night, before he went to bed, he pulled Xu Wei aside and handed her a gaming console. Then, he said, "Go check on him and comfort him. I don't want him to keep thinking about it, or he might get depressed later."
