Guan Lei could not accept it and continued to ask Shen Xi, “Xi, do you remember what happened between us at Zhuo Ying High School? And the things between us?”
Shen Xi lowered her gaze, thought for a moment, and then said, “Of course, I remember. You were a transfer student, my cla.s.smate, and then you transferred away, didn’t you? The things between us? Are you talking about how I met you again when I was on a mission, and later you moved to the house across from mine, and we became neighbors?”
Guan Lei pressed on, “Is that all? Nothing else? Like me giving you candy, digging sweet potatoes at your house, living together in the school infirmary, watching fireworks together, going to the market to buy groceries for hotpot, sticking together through life and death in S Nation, your bracelet, and…”
“Stop it!” Shen Xi shouted at Guan Lei, cutting him off, then turned to Gu Chen and said with displeasure, “Gu Chen, what’s the meaning of that? Why did you share the details of our past with Guan Lei, an outsider?”
Guan Lei was left dumbfounded, an outsider?
Gu Chen also looked helpless and said, “Xi, you’ve misunderstood. None of those things you mentioned happened between us.”
With that, Gu Chen turned to Shen Yan and said, “President Shen, please call a doctor quickly. Xi’s condition seems to be getting serious.”
Lu Shan, wearing a worried expression, hurriedly went to find a doctor.
Shen Xi found the people in front of her utterly perplexing. What did they mean by her condition getting serious?
It must be that Gu Chen was going to abandon her again, just like four years ago.
Shen Xi’s emotions became chaotic in an instant. She glared at Gu Chen with reddened eyes and confronted him in a fiery voice, “Gu Chen, you promised me that this time, you wouldn’t leave me. What’s wrong with you? Are you going back on your word again?”
Guan Lei, watching Shen Xi about to lose control, quickly hugged her and said with an aching heart, “Xi, I promised that I won’t leave you again. I’ll always be by your side. Please don’t be like this.”
Shen Xi’s eyes were fixed on Gu Chen, who remained unfazed even when she was being held. She could not control herself any longer. She clutched her throbbing head and struggled while calling out to Gu Chen as if it could relieve her headache.
Finally, Gu Chen could not bear it any longer and kicked Guan Lei away.
Caught off guard, Guan Lei was sent crashing into the wall, causing intense pain to shoot through his entire back.
Gu Chen pulled Shen Xi into his arms, gently stroking her head, and consoled, “Xi, I haven’t changed my mind. As long as you’re willing to be with me, I’ll always be by your side,”
Smelling the familiar scent, Shen Xi’s emotions gradually calmed down, and her headache subsided. She remained quietly in Gu Chen’s arms.
Seeing Shen Xi in this state, Guan Lei felt as if his heart was being torn to pieces, but he did not know what to do.
As he tried to approach Shen Xi, Shen Yan stopped him.
Shen Yan was also concerned about Shen Xi getting too close to Gu Chen. But as a father, he could not bear to see his daughter lose control of her emotions, clutching her head in pain.
Guan Lei could only watch helplessly as Shen Xi rejected him and drew closer to Gu Chen.
The doctor arrived quickly and recommended a comprehensive brain examination for Shen Xi.
Shen Xi was a bit confused and said, “Doctor, I feel fine.’
Gu Chen held Shen Xi’s hand and patiently said, “Xi, please cooperate with the doctor. I’m worried about you, and I’m afraid there might be lasting effects.”
Seeing Gu Chen holding Shen Xi’s hand, Guan Lei chose to close his eyes and look away. He was afraid he might not be able to resist the urge to attack this sc.u.mbag Gu Chen.
No matter how well Gu Chen was pretending now, Guan Lei was one hundred percent sure that the current state of Shen Xi had everything to do with Gu Chen.
Shen Xi sighed and then turned to look at Gu Chen for a moment before conceding, “Alright.”
Gu Chen affectionately ruffled Shen Xi’s hair.
On the other side, Lu Shan and Shen Yan were close to losing their minds. Their healthy daughter had inexplicably lost her mind to this extent.
Shen Xi followed the doctor for a comprehensive examination, and the wait for the results was excruciating.
For Guan Lei, who had been watching Shen Xi and Gu Chen’s sweet interactions, the wait felt even longer.
Meng Yu and Li Zhe, upon learning that Shen Xi had an incident, rushed to the hospital.
Seeing Shen Xi lively and well, Meng Yu let out a sigh of relief and said, “Xi, I was so worried when I heard you were in the hospital.”
Shen Xi smiled and said, “Meng Yu, I’m really fine..”
