Translator: Dragon Boat TranslationEditor: Dragon Boat Translation

That night, Li Jingran did not eat and was not in the mood to work in the study. The Butler could not help but say, “Director Li, you haven’t contacted Miss Xu for a day. Do you want to arrange for someone to ask?”

Li Jingran snorted coldly and clutched the document in his hand. “No need to ask.”

If she wanted to leave, then let her go.

‘The Butler pursed his lips. Why did he feel that the Big Boss was forcing himself?

‘Asan old man at the Li family, he could actually see that Li Jingran was not in a good mood.

He sighed and had no choice but to leave the study room.

The next morning, the door of the study room was still open, and a strong and pungent smoke wafted out of the room.

‘The Butler passed by the stairwell and smelled the strong smoke. He coughed a few times and frowned.

Li Jingran had never smoked so much. What made him suddenly smoke so much today?

‘The Butler thought of Xu Wanwan’s departure and guessed that Li Jingran must have been worried about this matter.

He carefully pushed open the door of the study room and asked while delivering the documents, “Director Li, Miss Xu has been gone for a day. Aren’t you worried?”

Li Jingran had been working all night on official business. At this moment, his eyes were dark and his brows were pinched in exhaustion.

Seeing that he had no intention of answering, the Butler guessed that he probably did not want to say anything, so he sighed and prepared to leave.

“Go and find out where Xu Wanwan went yesterday.”

The Butler had already walked to the door when Li Jingran suddenly said this.

“Yes, I’ll go check it out right now.” A trace of surprise appeared in the Butler’s eyes and he hurriedly went to investigate.

‘As long as he could help Director Li successfully find Xu Wanwan, his bonus for this month would definitely not be gone.

An hour later, the Butler pushed open the door of the study room again with the information he had investigated.

But this time, his expression was a little grave.

Li Jingran frowned. “Where did she go?”

‘The Butler hesitantly turned on his phone, took out the photo inside, and handed it to Li Jingran.

“Miss Xu seems to be with the Second Young Master.

Li Jingran’s expression suddenly turned cold. He stared at the photo on the screen, and his fingers exerted so much strength that he almost crushed the phone.

In the photo, Xu Wanwan was sitting in the back seat of Li Xuyi’s motorcycle. The two of them were very close to each other, looking quite ambiguous.

The Butler hesitated for a long time before he said, “Director Li, I’ve found out what you asked me to find out last time.”

“Say it.”

Li Jingran’s voice was low and he threw his phone aside unhappily.

“Miss Xu met with Miss Zhou Lin that night. Something must have happened between them…”

The Butler said hesitantly, “However, we can’t find specific details.”

Li Jingran narrowed his eyes. “She met with Zhou Lin?”

“Yes, Miss Zhou even made a special appointment to meet with Miss Xu. The two of them talked upstairs. As for what they talked about, I didn’t manage to find out.”

Li Jingran’s deep eyes flashed with a hint of coldness.

Xu Wanwan had changed a lot since she came back from Jade Forest City that night. She must have experienced something and didn’t tell him.

“Director Li, Miss Xu is at Second Young Master’s house now. Do you want to go and find her?”

Li Jingran’s eyes darkened. Thinking of how she had left decisively, he said coldly, “No.”

Another day had passed. Each day Li Jingran would come home from work and sit alone in the dining room to eat, he would always think of Xu Wanwan.

He didn’t have much of an appetite. He ate the steak on his plate without knowing its taste. After a few mouthfuls, he frowned.

Aunt Zhang stood at the side, shivering, “Director Li, is tonight’s dinner not to your liking?”

“I didn’t pay a high price to hire you guys just to let you cook this kind of perfunctory thing.” Li Jingran pushed away the plate in front of him and pulled out a napkin to wipe the corner of his lips.

Aunt Zhang was a little innocent. “But Director Li, these are all made according to your previous tastes… If you don’t this unappetizing, then we’ll make it again.”

Li Jingran said impatiently, “No need.”

The servants cooked and cooked, but they still couldn’t replicate Xu Wanwan’s cooking.

Aunt Zhang touched her forehead. She couldn’t help but say, “Director Li, you must be missing Miss Xu’s cooking. Why don’t you invite her back?”

“Then what’s the use of having you guys?” Li Jingran’s voice suddenly turned cold, as if Xu Wanwan shouldn’t be mentioned.

Aunt Zhang sighed and carried the dishes that had not been touched much back to the kitchen.

Everyone in the house could see that Li Jingran had been absent-minded these past few days.

After Xu Wanwan had left, not only did he not eat or sleep well, but he also could not even work on things.

Li Jingran leaned against the sofa, turned on the television, and lit a cigarette.

He tried to cover up the emptiness in the house with a cheerful variety show.

But he could not control his heart.

As he watched the TV, he would always imagine Xu Wanwan sitting cross-legged on the sofa, eating potato chips and watching TV.

He turned off the TV irritably and got up to go back to his room.

‘When he reached the corner of the stairs, he suddenly stopped. For some reason, he suddenly wanted to go to Xu Wanwan’s room to have a look.

When he pushed open the door of the room, he could no longer see the girl lying on the bed with her legs crossed and playing on the computer.

His eyes were dark and uncertain. He looked at the clean room as if there was something missing.

‘When he walked to the table, his gaze became fixed on the computer, and his aura turned even gloomier.

She really left just like that. She did not even bring the computer that he had given her.

Li Jingran sat in front of the table gloomily. He picked up the diary in the corner of the table and flipped it open to take a look.

He did not have the habit of peeking, but there was nothing left in the room.

The diary was hidden in the corner of the table and seemed to have been forgotten.

He flipped to a random page, saw his name, and froze.

The girl’s delicate handwriting was printed on the white paper—

October 15th. Sunny Day. “Mr. Li seems to have neglected me. Did I do something wrong to make him hate me?”

October 16th. Cloudy Day. “I’m not in a good mood today. Mr. Li didn’t eat the food I cooked.”

October 17th. Sunny Day. “Mr. Li worked overtime and came home late. I secretly opened the door and saw him go upstairs.”

October 30th. “Autumn has arrived, and it was very windy when I came home tonight. I talked to Mr. Li’s fiancée. I was a little disappointed, but I couldn’t change anything, I know it’s troublesome for me to stay in the Li family. I can’t be so selfish and put Mr. Li in a difficult position for my own selfish

desires.”

Seeing this, Li Jingran’s pupils constricted, his heart feeling as if it was suddenly stabbed.

His slender fingers pinched the pages of the diary and gradually closed them.

“T’ve thought for a long time and stood in the wind for a long time. In the end, I decided to leave Mr. Li. Compared to my selfish desires, I hope he can be with a better person. I hope he can have a better life.”

“Ican’t blame anyone. It’s me who doesn’t deserve to stay by his side.”

“Autumn is really suitable for parting. I hope that when I leave tomorrow, the wind will be less strong, I want to leave quietly.”
