Zhuo Junyi initially did not understand why his elder brother had suddenly changed so drastically, given that he clearly loved his younger sister-in-law so much.
It was only later that he learned that his elder brother had been poisoned and, fearing that he would drag his sister-in-law down, had decided to try to push her away.
Su Shijie felt somewhat frustrated that he was not able to be there when his sister needed someone the most.
Upon arriving at the hospital, Su Shijie walked into the ward and first laid eyes on Su Ningyan.
"Sis, are you okay?"
Ningyan knew he had been on a business trip and, seeing his anxious expression, she came over and said softly, "Your brother-in-law just fell asleep, let's talk outside."
Su Shijie nodded, and Zhuo Junyi stayed in the ward, feeling somewhat distressed.
Such a thing had happened to his elder brother, and she was only learning about it now.
