Chen Yunlong sat alone in the quiet living room, the early autumn morning casting a soft glow through the windows. The weight of worry etched lines on his face, and his eyes held a heaviness that mirrored the burden on his mind. The restless night had denied him the solace of sleep, and his thoughts were consumed by the return of his estranged brother, Chen Lao.
As memories of the past resurfaced, he couldn't shake the recollection of that fateful day when Chen Lao clashed with their father over the decision to appoint him as the next guardian. Chen Yunlong vividly remembered the fiery determination in Chen Lao's eyes as he vowed to return one day, to prove their father wrong. The unresolved tension lingered in the air, and Chen Yunlong grappled with the uncertainty of his brother's intentions.
