Shen Xi had sharp eyes and saw Xue Li. She stared at Xue Li without saying anything.
Xue Li’s scalp went numb. He looked at Guan Lei, who was silently looking out of the window and said, “Young Master, Ms. Shen Xi is in the corridor. She wants to see you.”
Guan Lei turned his head abruptly. His eyes lit up for the first time in a few days, but soon, the light disappeared.
Xue Li continued, “Young Master, why don’t we meet Ms. Shen Xi? She might want to explain to you about President Meng.”
When Guan Lei heard Meng Yu’s name, his mood instantly sank. He was happy that Shen Xi came to find him. However, he was afraid that Shen Xi would come to break up with him. He would rather hide like a turtle than hear Shen Xi say that she liked Meng Yu and wanted to break up with him.
However, he had to make it clear that since they were going to separate, they should say goodbye properly.
“Take her to the room next door.” Guan Lei was finally willing to see Shen Xi. Xue Li was instantly happy and said, “Alright, I’ll do so immediately.”
In fact, Xue Li was also angry that Shen Xi lied to him that day. Young Master was so nice to Shen Xi, but Shen Xi actually lied. However, seeing that Young Master had a poor appet.i.te these days, was depressed, and did not even take good care of his illness, Xue Li understood that Young Master was unable to let Shen Xi go.
If that was the case, then the young couple should have a good talk and reconcile. As long as Shen Xi and Young Master were in a good relationship in the future and the two of them were happy, everything else was not a big deal.
Xue Li walked to the end of the corridor happily and said to Shen Xi with a smile, “Ms. Shen Xi, please!”
The bodyguard immediately gave way, but only Shen Xi was allowed to pa.s.s. Shen Luan and Lu Fei were stopped. The two of them were instantly dissatisfied and almost wanted to fight.
Xue Li looked at the two people following Shen Xi in surprise. These two people were not bad at fighting. Xue Li recalled the scene where the Shen and Lu families showed up at the same time that day. He clicked his tongue. Ms. Shen Xi had hidden her strength well.
He thought that she was some farmer’s daughter, but he did not expect her to be the heir of the Shen and Lu families in Beijing. Young Master knew how to choose people and directly chose a powerful girl.
Shen Xi said to Shen Luan and Lu Fei, “You guys wait here. I’ll be fine.”
Only then did Shen Luan and Lu Fei stop attacking and obediently wait outside.
Shen Xi followed Xue Li to a room, which was obviously not Guan Lei’s room, because Xue Li did not stick his head out of this room just now.
Shen Xi could not help but laugh at herself. She looked at Xue Li and said,
“Young Master Guan is really a big shot. It’s really not easy to meet him.”
Xue Li was shocked. He wondered how Shen Xi knew Guan Lei’s true ident.i.ty. Then, he understood. It should not be difficult for the Shen family and the Lu family to investigate Young Master. Since Shen Xi could find this place, she must have known this young master’s ident.i.ty long ago.
However, it did not make much difference whether she knew or not. Anyway, Young Master was going to meet everyone officially today. In the future, he would not play those kinds of hide-and-seek games with the Gu family.
Xue Li smiled awkwardly and said, “Ms. Shen Xi, please wait for a while. I’ll be right back.”
Shen Xi nodded and looked around.
Guan Lei looked at the girl in the surveillance camera. It was as if he had suddenly found an outlet to vent his longing for the past few days. His eyes were fixed on Shen Xi in the video as if he could not get enough of her.
Xue Li saw Guan Lei’s expression as soon as he came in. He sighed in his heart and thought that they should explain themselves and reconcile.
“You can go out first,” Guan Lei said to Xue Li. “Just stand by the door. Don’t let Xi come in.”
Xue Li did not understand, but he still went out obediently.
Suddenly, the television in front of Shen Xi lit up. Guan Lei appeared on television.
Shen Xi was slightly surprised and said softly, “Guan Lei, you…” However, before she could finish, Guan Lei had already spoken.
“Xi, I’m sorry. Forgive me for not having the courage to face you. I’m sorry. I deliberately hid Meng Yu’s presence and even prevented you from meeting him.” Guan Lei’s expression was not too good, and his voice was not loud either. He just spoke calmly.
“I know I was a little despicable, but at that time, I thought that if you met him later, maybe you would love me more. That way, you wouldn’t be willing to part with me for him. Later on, I even had the idea that I would never let you see each other again.” Guan Lei’s lips curled into a bitter smile..
