Chapter 488: When Will Xiangyi Return?

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“I...”

“She’s coming back to the mansion with me today.”

She could not utter a single word for a while, so Shi Yuting decided to speak up for her.

Zuo Yi paused for a moment before asking, “Why are you going back today?”

“Why not?”

“Can’t she stay here for a few more days?”

“She’s been staying here for half a month.”

In fact, if he and Uncle Yu had not eavesdropped outside the room last night, he had not planned to let her return to the old mansion just like that.

More importantly, he did not want to have someone eavesdropping outside the door every night when he wanted her. He still needed his privacy.

That was why he had decided to return to the old mansion the moment he woke up.

Moreover, it was nearing the end of the year. No matter what, she was now the next mistress of the Shi family. She could not stay at her house of her maternal family all the time, right?

That was what Shi Yuting thought. So after breakfast, he brought his wife back to the old mansion.

Shen Lanzhi and Shi Nuannuan were extremely happy at her return. At the very least, it proved that she was no longer angry.

There were still a few days before the New Year, and some of the migrant workers had already returned home for the New Year. However, Shi Yuting was still handling some major national affairs as usual.

Because of Zuo Weiyi, the relationship between Shi Le and Zuo Yi seemed to have gradually improved.

These days, either Zuo Yi came to look for Shi Le, or Shi Le went to look for Zuo Yi. The two of them played chess together. Although there were still some disputes sometimes, the relationship between the two was indeed much better than before.

That morning, Shi Nuannuan managed to catch her brother before he went out. She could not help but ask, “Brother, about that... ”

Looking at Shi Yuting who was changing his shoes at the entrance, Shi Nuannuan turned her head and looked at her mother and grandfather on the sofa. She had wanted to say something but hesitated. Then, she ran up to Shi Yuting and pulled him by the arm, asking in a low voice, “Brother, Xiangyi, has he really gone back to his hometown?”

“Yes, he didn’t tell you?”

Shi Nuannuan paused.

She had mentioned it before, but there had been no news from him for the past few days.

“He went straight back to his hometown after he finished dealing with Di Zun.”

“Oh.” She said in disappointment. Then, she asked, “When will he come back?”

“I don’t know.” Shi Yuting was expressionless as he looked at his sister. “I gave him at least half a month’s leave for the Spring Festival. Let’s see when he wants to come back.”

Hearing this, Shi Nuannuan’s eyes widened and she exclaimed, “Half a month?!”

Her overly shocked expression made him frown slightly. “Is there a problem?”

“Brother, how could you give him such a long holiday?! Shouldn’t you be very busy after the New Year? Why did you give him such a long holiday?” Shi Nuannuan asked unhappily.

No one knew why she was unhappy.

On the sofa, Shen Lanzhi and Zuo Weiyi heard her overly intense voice and could not help but turn their heads to look at where the siblings were.

Looking at her displeased expression, Shi Yuting’s long and narrow eyes lowered slightly. He then looked up with a calm expression. “He seems to have some matters to attend to.”

“What is it?” She asked with a surprised expression.

Shi Yuting looked at his sister in front of him and was silent for a few seconds. However, he did not answer her directly. Instead, he looked at the watch on his wrist and said, “I’m leaving.”

Looking at his determined back, Shi Nuannuan was at a loss for words.

When would Xiangyi come back? What was it that required him to stay in his hometown for half a month?
