Zhao Yuan was shocked by Shen Xi’s sudden appearance. She said slowly, “No… No, I just said it casually.”
Gu Chen’s eyes darkened. Shen Xi had heard so much from the side. When she heard that Guan Lei had abandoned her for his grandfather, he did not react. Instead, she reacted like this when she heard that Guan Lei would be hurt.
It seemed that Shen Xi had a deep affection for Guan Lei. This was a little difficult.
Shen Xi glanced at Gu Chen beside her and said, “It’s getting late. I still have something to deal with. Gu Chen, do you want to leave first?”
Gu Chen’s mood dropped a little. Was Shen Xi guarding against him? That was true. Now that Shen Xi knew about the relationship between the Gu family and the Guan family, as long as Guan Lei was still in Shen Xi’s heart, she would naturally be wary of him.
Gu Chen got up and said gently, “Alright, I’ll go back first.”
After saying that, Gu Chen did not forget to take away the trash on the dining table.
Seeing the door close, Shen Xi retracted his gaze and asked Zhao Yuan, “What did you just say about Guan Lei’s cousin?” struzzled in her heart for a while. She thought that now that Shen
Xi already knew, there was no point in hiding it anymore. She said honestly,
“Guan Lei has a cousin named Guan Bo, the one I mistook for Young Master Guan. He was… Previously, he sent people to attack Guan Lei on the island and said he wanted to frame someone called Guan Tai.
“When did this happen?” Shen Xi stared at Zhao Yuan and asked.
“I don’t know.” Zhao Yuan replied in a m.u.f.fled voice.
Shen Xi retracted her gaze and thought that the island that Zhao Yuan was talking about should be the island that she had asked her cousin Zheng Huai to look for Guan Lei.
If she guessed correctly, it was on the day of Old master Guan’s birthday banquet. Guan Bo had ordered his men to attack Guan Lei on the island. That was why she could not contact Guan Lei that day. At that time, when Guan Lei returned to Rong City, he was indeed injured all over.
Shen Xi felt that she had to tell Guan Lei about this matter. Otherwise, if his family betrayed him, it would be tough to guard against, just like…
Shen Xi suddenly remembered that Guan Lei had disregarded her safety for the sake of his grandfather’s innocence. She could understand Guan Lei’s choice, but she could not help but feel a little upset.
However, thinking about it, if she had encountered such a situation, she might have made the same choice as Guan Lei. Thinking of this, Shen Xi felt a little relieved.
Shen Xi sent a message to Guan Lei, “Be careful of Guan Bo, he’s related to the island.”
Shen Xi did not know if Guan Lei would receive it, but she had a feeling that something was out of her control and that Guan Lei might not want to talk to her.
Shen Xi did not know why, but she could only attribute it to a human’s sixth sense.
Therefore, Shen Xi sent the same message to Xue Li.
When Xue Li received Shen Xi’s message, he was shocked. They had clearly found out that Guan Tai was the mastermind behind the island attack. Why would Ms. Shen Xi send this message all of a sudden?
Xue Li quickly went to find Guan Lei with the message, but just as he said, “Ms. Shen Xi, she is…” Guan Lei mercilessly interrupted him.
“In the future, don’t report her matters to me anymore.” Guan Lei said in a m.u.f.fled voice as he nestled on the sofa.
Since Shen Xi could not forget Meng Yu, who was very important to her, Guan Lei did not intend to humiliate himself and interfere in other people’s relationships.
Xue Li opened his mouth, but in the end, he could only change the way he said,
“It’s about the island. I received a tip that the person behind it might be Guan Bo. Not Guan Tai, whom we just confirmed.”
Guan Lei frowned when he heard Xue Li’s words. It had been so many years, but he still had not seen through Guan Bo clearly.
“Are you sure?” Guan Lei asked again.
“I’m not sure yet. I’ll check it out immediately.” Xue Li said and left.
The moment he closed the door, Li Xue sighed sadly. He could tell that Young Master still cared about Ms Shen Xi. Ms. Shen Xi clearly cared about him, but why did she lie?
Guan Lei looked at the phone that had been turned off for the past two days and threw it into the trash can. The number in this phone was originally bought for Shen Xi. Now that it was useless, there was no need to keep it.
For the entire day, Shen Xi looked at the messages that she sent were like stones falling into the sea. The uneasiness in her heart grew stronger.
Shen Yan and Lu Shan, who had just entered the door, saw Shen Xi in a daze in the living room. The two of them looked at each other and felt that something was wrong. Shen Xi looked very depressed..
