Grandma knew that Meng Yu had been by his side all these years. It was also possible that she had used him to attract Meng Yu over and then besieged him.
Guan Lei took a deep breath and called his grandmother, Ye Long, but Ye Long didn’t have time to pick up the phone.
The piercing sound of something shattering came from the house, followed by an angry shout, “Do you know that your one move almost killed Lever?
Ye Longs eyes were filled with self-blame as well. How would she know that someone would actually attack Guan Lei on the island at the same time?
“Weren’t you very confident that those people would definitely come to the birthday banquet this time? How come they couldn’t even find out where those people were? You still dare to criticize me!
“Even if I’ve miscalculated, you were the one who deliberately dismissed the island’s guards. Have you ever thought about who would protect Lei’er if an accident were to happen?” Guan Yi continued to scold loudly.
Guan Yi knew that his plan had failed this time. He wanted to lead the man to the birthday banquet, but he didn’t expect that man to drag them away at the banquet and send people to the island to kill Guan Lei.
“If it weren’t for your affair that left behind a vile spawn, you wouldn’t have accidentally injured Lei’er today! Don’t criticize me here. You should reflect on yourself.” Ye Long tore apart her husband’s sanctimonious facade without hiding anything.
Guan Yi turned his head and glared at his wife. He emphasized each word, “I’ve already told you it was an accident. I was tricked. Why can’t you believe me?
Ye Long looked at her furious husband and sneered. “An accident? An accident can give birth to a child? Guan Yi, that’s the illegitimate child you made after betraying me. Do you think I’m an idiot?”
“So you sent someone to kill him? It was your people this time?” Guan Yi looked straight at Ye Long and questioned her.
Ye Longs eyes, which were slightly cloudy due to her old age, began to turn red. She looked at the man who had said that he loved her when he was young and suddenly laughed. “Are you seeking justice for your illegitimate son? What if I say yes? Are you going to kill me?”
“You’re unreasonable!” Guan Yi glared at the slightly crazed Ye Long and said angrily, then left with a flick of his sleeves.
They became a couple at a young age, so Guan Yi knew his wife well. She had a bad temper and was stubborn. When she was misunderstood and wronged, she wouldn’t explain herself. She would even admit it directly, just to see his attitude.
Guan Yi felt a headache coming on.
After watching Guan Yi leave, Ye Long raised her head and held back the tears that were about to fall. Then, she started laughing a little crazily.
After a long while, Ye Long picked up her phone and sent a message to her grandson. “I only transferred the guards away because I didn’t want Li Zhe to ask Meng Yu for help. As for who wanted to kill Meng Yu, grandma doesn’t know either, but I hope that person will succeed.”
Guan Lei didn’t know whether to laugh or cry when he read his grandmother’s message, but he was finally able to put down the weight in his heart.
Just as he was about to explain the situation to Li Zhe, he already heard about it from Guan Yi.
“You don’t have to say anything. Your grandfather has already told me. If that were the case, this matter would be very interesting. If it’s not your mom and grandma, then it’s not the Guan family. But when those people went after Ah Yu, they would also consider our lives. Did they find out that the Guan family was involved?” Li Zhe’s brows were tightly furrowed as he voiced his doubts.
“I’ll investigate this matter. You can be at ease and just accompany… Meng Yu.” Guan Lei glanced at Meng Yu on the bed and said.
Li Zhe’s expression softened a lot after the conflict was cleared. He nodded at Guan Lei.
He had initially decided to go back the next day, but because of this incident, Guan Lei could only recuperate on the island for now. Otherwise, if Shen Xi came back and saw that he could not even walk, he would probably be shocked.
“After Shen Xi receives his award tomorrow, he should be going back, right? Oh my, I miss Xi so much, but what should I do about the wound on my face? Guan Lei scratched his head in frustration as he lay in bed.
In the end, Guan Lei only took a picture of the moon and sent it to Shen Xi to express his longing.
Xi’s boy sent, “I finally understand what it means to live at the same time as you. You and I are at different ends of the world, but we can see the same moonlight. Xi, I miss you. Have a good night.”
Shen Xi looked at the emotional message sent by Guan Lei, and her heart was filled with an unknown emotion. She got up, pulled open the curtains, and looked at the cold and white moon. In a daze, she saw the young man who always appeared by her side with a smile..
