“Do you intend to go down and play some more? It’s such a big mess, and you’re not thinking about fixing it. You still want to keep playing?” Guan Yi looked at Guan Lei in disbelief.
“What can I do about it? It’s not something important. At most, it’s just some rumors about my unique taste and my supposed partner. I don’t care about myself. Grandpa, why do you care?” Guan Lei replied, casting a playful glance at Li Zhe while sizing him up.
Guan Yi felt that his descendants were challenging his heart today. He exclaimed, “Get lost!”
Guan Lei raised an eyebrow, glanced at Meng Yu and Li Zhe, then turned and left, coincidentally running into Su Han, who was worried about her son at the door.
Su Han looked Guan Lei up and down and asked, “So, did you get beaten?”
Guan Lei smiled and said, “Mom, didn’t I tell you last time that I wouldn’t get beaten?”
Guan Lei shook his head. There was no way around it. Guan Yi used to be quick to resort to physical punishment or make him kneel. It probably left a lasting impact on Su Han, and changing that would be difficult.
“That’s good then. But, son, you weren’t wearing this outfit just now. Did you change your clothes?” Su Han said, even finding this outfit familiar.
Then, Su Han’s gaze fell on the mask in Guan Lei’s hand—the rose mask.
Su Han grabbed the mask from Guan Lei’s hand and exclaimed, “Are you the one who got lost with a girl just now? Who’s under the peony mask?”
Guan Lei cleared his throat and said, “I happened to switch masks with someone.”
Su Han angrily pinched Guan Lei’s arm and said, “You naughty child! Why didn’t you tell me earlier? You even lied to your mother! Do you know that I introduced that person to everyone as my son?”
Then Su Han suddenly remembered and tugged at Guan Lei’s collar. There were no hickeys, which made her feel disappointed. “He puts you in shame. He has a lover, but you don’t.”
With that, Su Han left grumbling.
Guan Lei chuckled and put on the mask, then went downstairs to find Shen Xi.
In the study, Guan Yi said helplessly, “Ah Yu, think about it again. This path is not easy. I still hope that you two can each start your own families and have a place to rely on in the future.”
Meng Yu replied calmly, “I’ve never thought about getting married and having children in my life. Even without Li Zhe, I would choose to live alone.”
Li Zhe turned sour in an instant. “How can you not get married? Marry me.”
Guan Yi was so frustrated that he pointed at the door and bellowed, ‘Get out!”
Li Zhe did not care about Guan Yi’s tone and happily pulled Meng Yu away, saying to Guan Yi, “Alright, Grandpa Guan, we’re leaving.”
Watching the filthy Li Zhe and the pale Meng Yu coming out of the study, Lei Feng realized that he had mistaken Meng Yu for Guan Lei all along.
Lei Feng turned to look at the study where Guan Yi sat dejectedly in his chair. Considerately, he quietly closed the door, thinking that the old master probably needed some rest.
“Let’s go back,” Meng Yu said as he looked at the gleeful Li Zhe.
Li Zhe nodded and said, “Yes, let’s go back early. It’s cold, perfect for snuggling under the blankets.”
Then it hit him. d.a.m.n, going back home? His house went up in flames.
If he had known the house would burn down, he should have bought more properties.
“Shall we go to a hotel today?” Li Zhe said, looking embarra.s.sed.
Nieng Yu asked in confusion, “Why go to a hotel out of the blue?”
As if he suddenly realized something, Meng Yu t s face could not help but flush slightly, and he whispered, “Let’s go back.”
Li Zhe sighed to himself. He had no choice but to tell the truth, “The house caught fire. The property management just called and said it burned completely, nothings left.”
Meng Yu was shocked, “Your house burned down, and you’re still in the mood to fool around? You should go back and deal with it.”
Li Zhe looked at Meng Yu, who was pulling him to go back, feeling torn. It was such a good evening, and it would be a waste if they had to deal with the fire.
“I’ll have Shi Xuan handle it. Let’s go to the hotel,” Li Zhe insisted, refusing to budge,
Meng Yu had no choice and said, “Fine, let’s go to my place first.”
Li Zhe raised an eyebrow and asked in confusion, “Your place? Didn’t you say you already returned the house to Shen Xi?”
Meng Yu was at a loss for words, and his lie was exposed in an instant..
