Once Meng Yu returned to the Guan family, his past would be exposed. Old Master Guan would lose his integrity.
Guan Yi was not only Guan Lei’s grandfather but also Meng Yu!s biological father. Shen Xi did not want this to happen because of her.
Hearing Shen Xi’s objection, Guan Lei felt extremely melancholic. He said uncomfortably, “But Xi, I really want to be with you. I know that my family and what happened four years ago made your family bear a deep grudge against me, so I’ve been thinking about what to do. This is the best solution I can think of.’
As if afraid that Shen Xi would feel burdened, Guan Lei continued, “Originally, the position of the heir of the Guan family was not mine, but my brother’s. Since my brother saved Meng Yu, it is only natural for Meng Yu to replace my brother. I have no interest in this position at all. Xi, don’t worry. I’ll take care of Meng Yu’s identity. Nothing will happen.”
“Guan Lei, I’m warning you. Don’t do anything rash. Otherwise, even if my parents agree, I won’t agree to be with you.” Shen Xi said sternly.
Guan Lei was silent on the other end of the phone. Shen Xi asked impatiently, “Did you hear what I said?”
Guan Lei nodded gloomily and said, “l heard it.”
Only then did Shen Xi slightly relax the stone weighing on her heart.
Guan Lei looked at the candy that Shen Xi had sent back. He peeled it and put it into his mouth. The clear sweetness spread in his mouth. Guan Lei said vaguely, “Xi, the candy in your hands is sweeter. Touch the box of candies and send them back to me.’
Shen Xi laughed in anger. “Guan Lei, why are you like this? How can you give something away and even ask for it back personally?”
“Then will you eat it?” Guan Lei asked expectantly. Shen Xi only lightly acknowledged and said, “Yes, at least 1 like candy.” Guan Lei asked, “What about me? Do you like me too?”
Shen Xi listened to Guan Lei’s question and looked up at Guan Lei with a bright smile. “l won’t consider it if it’s not as sweet as sugar.”
Guan Lei, who was on the balcony, instantly deflated like a balloon. He said dejectedly, “Can I put some honey on my body?”
Shen Xi couldn’t help but laugh out loud. “Honey? You really know how to think. I’m afraid that you’ll attract ants before you finish applying it. The famous Young Master Guan of Beijing was bitten to death by ants. That was going to be big news.”
“Xi, you like to eat. As long as you like me, it’s okay to be bitten to death. I’ll chase you again in my next life,” Guan Lei said as he looked at the person opposite him with gentle eyes.
Shen Xi felt that she couldn’t continue chatting with Guan Lei. Eight out of ten sentences from this person were confessions and flirtations. This made Shen Xi, who didn’t know what the future would be like, unable to withstand it.
“I’m going to wash up and get ready to sleep.” Shen Xi said as she closed the glass door and drew the curtains.
“So early?” Guan Lei asked anxiously.
Shen Xi looked at the time. It was only around eight o’clock in the evening. It was indeed a little early.
“It’s fine if you don’t want to talk. Xi, just put your phone aside. I’ll just listen to your voice, okay?” Guan Lei dragged out the last syllable, trying to act coquettishly to achieve his goal of being intimate with Shen Xi.
Shen Xi had a headache. Her rationality told her not to indulge Guan Lei, but she could not resist Guan Lei’s coquettish look.
Shen Xi began to realize that she was really a double-minded person when it came to people she liked and disliked.
If Chen Yu was the one acting coquettishly at her, she would definitely hang up the phone with a look of disgust.
Therefore, Shen Xi knew that she would probably fall into Guan Lei’s hands for the rest of her life. She had to think carefully about how the two of them could be together without involving her family’s power.
In the end, Shen Xi still maintained her conversation with Guan Lei and even brought him into the bathroom when she took a shower.
It couldn’t be helped. Love made it easy for people to lower their bottom line.
On the other end of the phone, Guan Lei heard the sound of the water. He could not help but imagine some indescribable scenes in his mind. His face instantly turned red.
When Xue Li saw Guan Lei’s face, he thought that Guan Lei was having a fever. He called him several times, but Guan Lei didn’t respond..
