章 536: In a Moment (2)

It was late at night when Li Xiran returned home. His meeting with Lu Qingfeng took longer than expected. If Su Xiaofei didn't barge into his study earlier and glared furiously at her husband for being late, Li Xiran knew that he wouldn't be able to leave sooner.

He walked into the dimly lit hallway and sighed. It seemed that everyone was asleep now, aside from the guards that were stationed at their posts.

As he removed his jacket, he remembered that it was Xi Qian's last day living here with them. It hadn't been too long since their encounter, but he hadn't expected that Xi Qian would come to a decision so soon and would choose to terminate her contract early.

Thinking about it, perhaps it's also time for him to leave his father's estate and live alone again. It wasn't like he would have a hard time on his own. Even before he returned here and took over their family business, Li Xiran had been living on his own since he was sixteen.
