Politely greeted the people in the living room, then went upstairs alone. As he turned the corner, Xi Siyan heard voices from downstairs.
"Ah Hui, is that your wife's son?"
"Yeah, just a burden."
Xi Siyan's hand clenched again as he walked back to his room.
The man of the house has the surname Li, named Li Chengyuan, a senior executive at a real estate group, with a well-off family background.
The man was his stepfather. After his mother remarried, she bore him two children, a boy and a girl, who were the family's little darlings.
As for him, Xi Siyan, he's considered an outsider, so it's not surprising to be called a burden.
To be fair, Li Chengyuan wasn't too bad to him; at least he provided for his education and living expenses, but expecting affection was too much to hope for.
