“Uncle, I’ve already thought it through. I’m not the only child in the Guan family, so 1 don’t have any burdens.” Guan Lei said.
Although he felt a little sorry for his parents, Guan Lei was even more unwilling to give up on Shen Xi.
Shen Yan stared deeply at Guan Lei, trying to find traces of Guan Lei lying. He absolutely did not believe that Guan Lei would really do this.
But at the same time, he couldn’t deny that he was very moved by Guan Lei’s suggestion.
He knew very well that Xi liked Guan Lei. If Guan Lei could really give up everything to come to the Shen family and live a good life with Xi, it would not be too bad.
Xi didn’t like many things. Guan Lei was one of them. As her parent, if he gave Guan Lei to Xi, Xi would be happy, right?
However, Shen Yan was still worried. Guan Lei was very capable. What if Guan Lei went back on his word halfway?
Guan Lei saw Shen Yan’s doubts and quickly promised, “Uncle, I won’t go back on my word. I, Guan Lei, will do what I say.”
Shen Yan was calculative in his heart. Actually, he did not have to let Guan Lei marry into his family. He had only said this to scare Guan Lei away.
However, he did not expect Guan Lei to actually say that he was willing.
If what Guan Lei said was true, then it seemed like he had some feelings for
Xi.
However, Shen Yan was also a man. He knew very well in his heart that some men truly loved when they loved, and they really did not love when they did not love.
If Guan Lei stopped loving Xi one day, he might blame Xi for everything he had given up. That would still make Xi suffer in the end. Therefore, Shen Yan chose to believe 10% of Guan Lei’s words.
In the end, Shen Yan sent Guan Lei away.
Shen Xi, who had been guarding the elevator, saw Guan Lei come out. She ignored Guan Ba who was beside Guan Lei and pulled Guan Lei to hide in the safety pa.s.sage at the side.
Guan Ba didn’t dare to follow him or leave until Guan Lei poked his head out and told him to wait downstairs. Guan Ba then took the elevator down.
Shen Xi Dulled Guan Lei back to the stairway behind the security door.
“What are you doing here?” Shen Xi looked at Guan Lei curiously and asked.
Guan Lei looked around. When he was sure that there were no people or recording equipment, he hugged Shen Xi in his arms and sniffed the girl’s body fragrance greedily.
Shen Xi pushed Guan Lei and whispered in panic, “Guan Lei, let go of me. It won’t be good if my dad sees me.”
“l told your father that I want to stay by your side,” Guan Lei said gloomily.” “You came to talk to my dad about us today?” Shen Xi was slightly stunned.
“Yes, 1 told your mother in the morning that I want to be with you. I told your father just now that I want to be with you. Xi, I can’t wait anymore. 1 want to hug you openly and be with you.” Guan Lei said anxiously.
He hugged the girl in his arms tightly, his nose resting on Shen Xi’s neck and gently rubbing it.
The ambiguous atmosphere began to spread, but Shen Xi asked with a worried expression, “Then, did my parents agree?”
Guan Lei was slightly depressed. He sighed and said, “Not yet, but it’s okay, Xi. I’ll get them to agree, You don’t have to worry about this. Let me handle it. You don’t have to do anything. I’ll sweep away all obstacles.”
Hearing Guan Lei’s words, Shen Xi rested her head on Guan Lei’s chest in relief. “Alright!’
Shen Xi enjoyed the happiness of being taken care of by others. ‘You don’t have to do anything, I will sweep away all obstacles.’ What touching words. Guan Lei gently lifted Shen Xi’s chin and gently kissed her lips.
That action was extremely gentle, causing Shen Xi to let out a sigh of joy from the bottom of her heart.
The sound of ambiguous breathing echoed at the stairwell. After a while, Guan Lei let go of the panting Shen Xi. His fingers wiped the water off Shen Xi’s lips and said in a low and hoa.r.s.e voice, “Xi, from now on, I’ll believe whatever you say. I won’t make you sad again.”
She had fainted from anger. Every time he thought of what Lu Shan had said today, Guan Lei’s heart ached like it was being p.r.i.c.ked by needles.
Shen Xi’s eyes were so moist that tears were about to float out. Guan Lei was filled with regret. How could he say such hurtful words to such a delicate girl back then?
Guan Lei silently tidied up the b.u.t.tons and collar that had been accidentally unb.u.t.toned because of the kiss. He said with a doting gaze, “Go back to work.
I’ll look for you tonight.”
