After Li Yuxi's walked out, an unusual silence filled the room, as if her departure took away the Xie family's happiness with her.
Mrs. Xie looked at Xie Fang, who was still in Li Chang's embrace, then at the cake on the table. Her eyes were clouded with unease.
Xie Shing excused himself and walked out of the living room, heading to the company with an unsettled heart.
Mrs. Xie wanted to comfort her son who had clearly been hurt by Li Yuxi's harsh words. However, looking at Li Chang who was already comforting him in a low, gentle voice, she felt she was not needed.
As if sensing Mrs. Xie's gaze, Li Chang looked in her direction. "I'll take care of him. You should take a rest, Mrs. Xie."
Mrs. Xie hesitated, but she also needed time to process everything. In the end, she nodded and returned to her room, leaving only two people in the living room.
