Chapter 389 She Will Never Be Resigned

In Li Family's old mansion, as the second hand ticked past eleven o'clock, Yan Shuirou finally waited for the return of the man she loved.

The man, reeking of alcohol, waved off the servants' attempts to help and staggered through the lavishly decorated hall, making his way up the spiral staircase to the second floor.

On the living room sofa, Yan Shuirou watched the most familiar yet most estranged man from a moderate distance, her heart aching sharply as she rose stiffly, conjuring a feeble smile, "Beicheng, today is your birthday. Ya'er has been pestering me, refusing to sleep, saying she wants to celebrate Daddy's birthday personally. You've come back so late; that little girl must be so disappointed."

On the stairs, the man halted his steps silently, glancing back with his hand on the railing.
