Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio | Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Guan Bo looked at the three people caught in a deadlock and spoke, Well, take your time to decide. I have plans for the evening, so Ill take my little Yuan home first.

Facing Guan Bos clearly nonsensical words, Zhao Yuan responded by giving him a sharp pinch around the waist.

Ye Min also spoke, Im taking my little friend home too. You guys take your time.

Han Cheng, referred to as the little friend, blushed instantly.

As for Shen Xis situation, neither Ye Min nor Zhao Yuan were concerned.

As long as Guan Lei was with Shen Xi, they didnt have to worry about Shen Xi being taken away by Gu Chen.

Moreover, Shen Xi was no pushover; her partial memory loss didnt make her a fool.

Shen Xi watched the four leave, then turned to the other two and said, Ill head back too. Take care!

With that, Shen Xi left on her own, leaving two big men glaring at each other with fiery anger in their eyes.

Gu Chen, you dont understand Xi at all, nor do you respect her. You and her can never be together, Guan Lei said bluntly.

Understand? After being together for a while, wouldnt we understand each other? When Xi and I have been married for more than a decade, I dont believe I wont understand her. As for respect, when Xi becomes my wife, I will naturally give her the utmost respect as her husband, Gu Chen coldly replied.

Guan Lei sneered, You want to be with Xi? Let me tell you, its impossible in this lifetime. Stop daydreaming!

Guan Lei turned and left, unwilling to waste more words on this self-righteous guy.

Meanwhile, Shen Xi had just reached her car and discovered her already flat tire. Shen Xi brought her hand to her forehead in defeat, wondering why she was so unlucky today.

Peeking from the shadows, Zhao Yuan gave Guan Bo a sidelong glance and teased, Who wouldve thought you had so many tricks up your sleeve!

Guan Bo immediately became fl.u.s.tered and laughed, Isnt it for the good of your friend and my brother? As long as the outcome is good, using a little strategy is harmless.

Then hurry and inform your cousin, or Xi will leave! Zhao Yuan reminded harshly.

Guan Bo belatedly picked up his phone to notify Guan Lei to come quickly.

Guan Lei had just arrived at the parking lot when he received Guan Bos message. His lips curled into a subtle smile, and he hastened toward the location sent by Guan Bo.

Seeing Shen Xi hang up the phone, Guan Lei approached with a smile, Xi, why are you still here? Havent left yet?

Shen Xi shot a helpless glance at her already flattened tire. Looking baffled,

Guan Lei said, A flat tire? How did this happen?

Shen Xi could only shrug in resignation. It was indeed strange. How could the tire burst for no reason?

Well, since thats the case, how about I give you a ride home? Were neighbors, and its really on the way, isnt it? Guan Lei earnestly suggested. Shen Xi considered for a moment; it didnt seem like a bad idea.

Alright, dont think too much about it. Its just a ride, Guan Lei continued to persuade Shen Xi. As for your car, Ill have Xue Li come down to help you or wait for the repair shop to send someone. Its almost two in the morning now; its very late.

Checking the time, Shen Xi agreed to go home with Guan Lei.

Once Guan Lei got in the car, he rolled down the window, claiming it was to ventilate the car.

As soon as Shen Xi took the pa.s.senger seat, Guan Lei enthusiastically fastened her seatbelt. Shen Xi could feel Guan Leis breath as he did so.

The proximity that could easily spark flames made Shen Xis body tense up.

Fortunately, after fastening the seatbelt, Guan Lei immediately retreated to the drivers seat.

As Shen XTs breathing returned to normal, Guan Lei looked triumphantly at Gu Chen standing not far away from the car.

Gu Chen wanted to challenge him, but he seemed a bit inexperienced. Shen Xis parents, friends, and relatives were all on Guan Leis side.

Gu Chens fists were clenched tightly as he looked at Guan Leis mocking expression, smiling confidently as he left with Shen Xi. He wanted to grab something but realized his stress ball was missing.

Ever since he found new solace in life, he hadnt thought about that ball that had accompanied him for so long.

But at this moment, he suddenly felt a sense of powerlessnessa feeling of being unable to have Shen Xi. Hence, he wanted to grab onto something to feel secure..
