Li Huan knew there was no way he could go back tonight, so he texted Ren Xiya.
But he didn’t mention what had happened at home.
He thought Ren Xiya wouldn’t ask much, but unexpectedly, her reply came immediately.
"Are you okay?"
"Concerned about me?"
"Yes."
Ren Xiya’s sincere response moved Li Huan.
He was truly touched.
The young lady was straightforward by nature.
Li Huan thought for a moment but still didn’t explain.
"I’ll take care of it."
"Okay."
After putting down the phone, Li Huan began to sort out the family’s assets.
He had hired a professional manager to manage the Li Family’s business, and most investments were made following Gong Chen’s lead.
Gong Chen ate meat, and he drank soup.
He was quite content.
But he also understood that Gong Chen helped him out of friendship, and he couldn’t rely on others forever.
So in his spare time, he also started learning to manage a company and attempted to invest in some projects.
The returns fluctuated, but overall were acceptable.
After all, he wasn’t a professional.
Moreover, his interest lay in medicine, and he couldn’t finish reading all the books he had; his energy was really limited.
But now.
A large portion of the money couldn’t be immediately transferred from the company, so there was still a significant financial gap.
Li Huan irritably ran his hand through his hair, not even noticing when the study door was pushed open.
Mrs. Li walked in, carrying a cup of tea.
"Li Huan, I’m sorry for you."
"Mom, saying this now is pointless. I beg you, can you listen to my opinion from now on? I remember you weren’t like this before," Li Huan said helplessly.
Mrs. Li pressed her lips together, not speaking.
Indeed, she hadn’t been like this before.
The Li Family couldn’t compare with the top-tier wealthy families, but they had a foundation.
She had a husband who loved her, a harmonious family, and friendly relatives.
Both sons were well-rounded and top students in medical school.
But ever since her husband died, everything seemed to change.
Li He died, and Li Huan became disobedient.
That’s when she was momentarily swayed by a few words from Fourth Master Li.
Mrs. Li knew that nothing she could say now would make a difference.
She whispered, "My natal family left me some properties. How about selling them to at least save the Li Family’s house? Everything here was left to me by your father."
"Mom, you don’t need to worry about this. I know you’re not feeling well right now. If you trust me, can you let me handle it?"
"Okay." Mrs. Li sat down to the side, her head bowed, "Do you still resent how I treated you and Ren Xiya?"
Hearing this, Li Huan put down the documents and looked at her calmly.
"Mom, you’ll always be my mom. I could never hate you. I know you only targeted Xiya because you’re uncomfortable in your heart."
This made Mrs. Li feel even more ashamed, and she choked up slightly.
"Li Huan, last time I blamed you for not saving your brother— I didn’t mean to say it. I didn’t know..."
"Mom, the doctor already told me that wasn’t your true intention. In fact, I blame myself as well. If I had figured out Li He’s intentions earlier, I might have been able to stop him in time, and he could have turned back."
Mrs. Li suddenly realized that Li Huan was still the most understanding son she had.
She felt even more guilty towards him.
Li Huan saw through her thoughts: "Mom, go to sleep. I’ll take care of everything."
"Okay, don’t tire yourself out too much."
After Mrs. Li left, Li Huan buried himself in work again.
After a night of sorting, Li Huan was exhausted.
