Brothers against fate

…“I… I abandoned an innocent man,” Gu Chen choked out, the words torn from his very soul. The calm façade he had maintained for seven long years shattered completely. Tears, hot and searing, streamed down his face, washing away the carefully constructed composure of the Prime Minister. He had condemned his brother, his best friend, based on lies. He had let Wei Rong win. The weight of his failure was unbearable.

He had lost his friend, and in doing so, he had lost a part of himself.
