Chapter 416: Chapter 416

Su Lu took out the tea set and fetched some of Jiang Su’s good tea she had packed from Jiang Li’s place.

Soon the room was brimming with the aroma of tea.

Su Lu pushed the teacup towards Su Zhe. "Try it."

Su Zhe picked up the cup and took a sip, seemingly lacking any interest in savoring the tea, appearing distracted.

"You must be very busy at work, right? Haven’t you been eating properly? You look thin," Su Lu said.

Su Zhe had always been frail and prone to losing weight, a sickly child who had once been seriously ill and owed his life to Su Lu. Even though he had recovered, he naturally remained different from others due to his weak constitution from childhood.

He was prone to sickness with the changing seasons, and his digestive system wasn’t the strongest.

When tired, he would lose weight quickly and noticeably. Often he would gain a few pounds from eating well for a month, only for it all to vanish at the busier times at the beginning and end of the month at the company, and he would even end up losing a few more pounds than he had gained.

But Su Zhe refused to admit he was losing weight, stubbornly denying it, as if admitting it would mean defeat.

"I haven’t lost weight. I eat and drink well every day. Of course, I’m busy; without Qiao Li, I’m quite worn out," Su Zhe said.

Su Lu sighed softly, noticing her brother’s stubbornness.

Despite Su Zhe being slender and easily knocked down by a cold with the change of seasons, he had a strong stubborn streak, which was why he had been at odds with Su Yukan for so many years.

Yet now he looked so worn down, and Su Lu could tell that it wasn’t just work that had gotten to him.

Brother Xun and he must have had a fight.

The trigger... must have been due to her accidentally walking in on them last time.

Thinking this, Su Lu felt a bit guilty, though she also knew she hadn’t really done anything wrong. Yet with nowhere else to place the blame, she could only blame herself.
