Chapitre 295: Chapter 154 Late Return_2

"Big Brother has returned," Lian Xiuxiu called out from the entrance of the Upper Room, her voice brimming with joy.

Old Master Lian halted his steps, turned around, and faced Lian Shouren.

"He has?" Old Master Lian scrutinized Lian Shouren from head to toe with a tone of composed calmness.

Seeing Lian Shouren return, Lian Manman followed Lian Shouxin out of the room. Lian Manman inexplicably felt that Old Master Lian's demeanor and tone were too placid, much like the calm before a storm.

However, Lian Shouren seemed not to notice anything unusual about Old Master Lian's attitude.

"Father," Lian Shouren stood before Old Master Lian, "It was Graduate Huang from the county town. He dragged me into conversation and didn't allow me to return."

"Uncle, your clothes smell really nice," Lian Manman said after taking a sniff. She was two or three steps away from Lian Shouren, but she could faintly catch the scent of powder on him, along with a much stronger aroma of alcohol.
