"Hongfei, why are you back so late? Is it very busy at your leader's office? If it's really that busy, you can go back. Nothing much is happening here. It's just your cousin, Jiang Shu; he said he can get into the academy, so we're having a family get-together to celebrate in advance."
Jiang Yongren held his wine glass, his face already showing signs of intoxication.
His gaze was hazy, and he completely missed his son's unease.
"Brother, are you too tired from socializing? You should rest." It was Jiang Yinglei, sitting in the corner, who noticed her brother's poor state and immediately stood up to greet him.
Supported by Jiang Yinglei, Jiang Hongfei made his way to the nearest seat.
He lowered his head and, with a quick glance at Jiang Shu, revealed eyes filled with extremely complex emotions.
"Hongfei, what's wrong?"
By now, everyone could see that something was amiss with Jiang Hongfei.
