Chapter 535: In a Moment (1)

Xi Qian's gaze swept through the room she had occupied these past months. This would be her last day here at the Li Estate. Strangely enough, she didn't find herself as lonely in this place as she thought she would be. Although her time with the Li family was short, she had to admit that she loved their company.

Madam Li was a kind host. She was very patient with her and usually dropped by to give her snacks while she was studying. It was odd, but Xi Qian briefly thought that it was like a mother looking after her child who was about to leave for college.

She chuckled and shook her head. How very different from her own mother whom she hadn't seen or talked to ever since their last encounter over five years ago. Not that her mother didn't try to reach her. In fact her mother had constantly pestered her with phone calls and text messages that forced Xi Qian to change her number to avoid her.
