Two years ago, my brother woke up one day with sudden numbness on one side of his body and one eye unable to see clearly.

After hospital examinations, it was found that my brother had a pituitary tumor, which had already compressed his nerves. If left untreated, it would lead to epilepsy or even paralysis.

The only solution was surgery to remove the tumor, but with the brain nerves densely packed, the surgery carried great risks.

Prior to the surgery, Gu Zhuo wrote his final diary entry, documenting his meeting with Lawyer Wu and drafting a will.

In the will, he divided his current assets into two halves, one for his wife and children, and the other half for me.

Upon reading this, tears that had been absent for so long began to flow uncontrollably.

Without wiping them away, I let the tears flow freely, much like my current emotions that needed release.

My brother's recovery after the surgery was acceptable, but it seemed like his nerves were damaged. He struggled to sleep at night and grew increasingly restless.

With the rapid development of the real estate industry, Gu Zhuo's wealth grew even more substantial. Even in retirement, he would have no worries for the rest of his life.

Returning to his family after being busy for so long, my brother found his young wife increasingly absent from home.

He Man was a full-time housewife with a daytime nanny at home. Her days were filled with shopping, beauty salons, or the gym.

My brother valued his family greatly; it was his only spiritual solace.

However, whenever he advised his wife to focus more on the family, He Man would argue with him.

Once, He Man spoke without restraint, "Do you want me to stay at home and take care of an old sick man like you?"

Those words deeply wounded Gu Zhuo. He couldn't understand why, despite working hard for the family and never straying outside, He Man couldn't care for him attentively like other wives when he fell ill.

From then on, his diary entries no longer depicted a happy family life; instead, they were filled with my brother's complaints and anger.
