Lu Xi looked at Lu Xuan with a cold face, gritted his teeth and said, "I just want to ask you, what did you tell her?"

"Why, she filed a complaint with you?" Lu Xuanjun looked worried, slightly guilty, and couldn't help feeling a little angry: "That kind of woman is worth your trouble at home in the middle of the night?"

Lu Xi's mind was full of her disheartened back, a fear of losing occupied all his mind, and immediately said with red eyes: "What do you know?!"

Lu Xuan froze in place, not because of his hoarse voice, but because this younger brother who was diagnosed as emotionally indifferent since childhood, his eyes were red for the first time.

what does this mean?

Lu Xuan suddenly felt flustered for a moment, moved his lips, and found his voice after a while: "Axi..."

"What happened to Xi?"

Before Lu Xuan could figure out how to save him, a suspicious and concerned male voice came from the spiral staircase on the second floor.

It's the eldest brother, Lu Yeran.

Lu Xuan suddenly looked at him at a loss, and kept blinking as if asking for help.

Lu Yeran's steps down the stairs quickened a little, and when he came over, he saw a man with clenched fists, an angry face, and red eyes, and his expression immediately changed dramatically.

"A Xi?"

As far as he knows, the youngest brother, since he was a child, can't cry or laugh, can't feel lonely, and can't play, just like an empty shell without emotions.

At first, the family thought distressedly that the child had IQ problems or autism.

But later, after examination, it was found that not only was his IQ not a problem, but it was even higher than ordinary people. He was not autistic, but a kind of mental illness that sounded inexplicable but was actually terrifying—apathy.

He lacks corresponding emotional responses to external stimuli, that is to say, he cannot feel or understand the emotions of ordinary people.

This kind of illness requires the absolute care of the family members, so they have spontaneously protected, pampered and spoiled this younger brother who was born without emotions since childhood.

Gradually, as Lu Xi grew up day by day, with his high IQ, although he still didn't understand those emotions, he learned to pretend and blend in.

And blended in flawlessly, as if she was born so cute, simple and innocent.

Even they'd almost been scammed—if it wasn't for attending the funeral of a relative they had a close relationship with.

They were all sad and depressed, but when they came back... they accidentally saw Lu Xi with a dazed face.

After being discovered, he stood opposite them a little helplessly and indifferently, hesitantly apologized: "...Sorry, I tried, but I still can't cry."

In fact, they know that it's not that they can't cry, but that they can't cry at all.

A perfect fake smile is very simple, but crying is very difficult. However, now, that Lu Xi who has no empathy at all has red eyes and almost collapsed.

At this moment, needless to say, Lu Xuan, even though he was as steady as Lu Yeran, couldn't help but lose his footing.

In a hurry, he called his parents on the second floor, and even made a video call to his grandparents who were far away in a foreign country.

It was only then that Lu Xuan came to his senses, deeply repented, apologized, and told everyone about it.

As the mother who loves the youngest the most, the woman was both surprised and delighted, and then she suddenly understood - it turns out that they haven't been home for so many days, not because they thought they were busy with experiments and studies, but because...they have someone they like?

But... the bad thing is, the person he likes just got hurt by the second child?
