Under the strong insistence of Ruan Munan, Ruan Qi was forced out of the study.
It was already past six in the evening, just in time for dinner at home. Xi Jiu carried the little girl downstairs, and as they entered the dining room, the doorbell rang.
"Who would come at this hour?" Ruan Munan was puzzled, turning his head and shouting towards the living room, "Nie Heng, go get the door!"
Nie Heng, who was feeding the dog in the living room, responded and quickly jogged to the entryway to open the door.
Soon, Ruan Qi, sitting in the dining room, heard a shout from Nie Heng.
"Sis, Brother Shen is here!"
Brother Shen?
Ruan Qi paused for a moment, put down her chopsticks, and walked out of the dining room, just in time to see Shen Wenqian coming in with a briefcase.
Shen Wenqian seemed to have just gotten off work, wearing a suit and carrying a hint of fatigue on his face.
Ruan Qi looked at him, surprised, and said, "Brother Shen, how come you didn't call me when you came?"
