Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Jiang Xue heard Xia Chun’s words and felt annoyed. How did she end up with such a submissive mother? Therefore, her voice was filled with disgust and impatience as she said, “In the future, I would get up whenever I want. You should know your limits and give in to me. I’m the future Mrs. Guan.”
Xia Chun was delighted and quickly asked, “So, the news is true. Are you going to get engaged to Young Master Guan? Why didn’t you say so earlier? I’ve always been so careful.”
Xia Nan and Bai Yu who got up later showed faces of joy. Although the Xia family was rich, they were not ranked high in Beijing. If they could get close to the Guan family, their net worth would immediately increase.
Under the praise of her family, Jiang Xue had a delicious breakfast. Then, she went to discuss with Xue Liu about her appearance on the variety show three days later.
On the other hand, Shen Xi, who had just opened his eyes in the hotel, saw Guan Lei sleeping by his bed. His heart instantly warmed, and his hand involuntarily reached out to Guan Lei’s face.
Her fair and slender fingers were touching Guan Lei’s handsome face happily. The next second, Guan Lei opened his eyes.
Shen Xi was stunned. Under Guan Lei’s mischievous gaze, she hurriedly retracted her hand. Halfway through, Guan Lei quickly grabbed it.
Guan Lei’s eyes were locked on Shen Xi. His clear eyes were filled with smiles. He pulled Shen Xi’s hand and gently planted a kiss on it. His voice was lazy and slightly hoarse. “Good morning, Xi.”
Shen Xi tried to pull her hand away but she couldn’t. She gave up and whispered, “Good morning.”
Guan Lei pulled Shen Xi’s hand and cuffed it with his hand. He then teased, “Xi, I’m just kissing your little hand right now, and you’re so shy. What if we get engaged? Would you be shy on stage and stop me from kissing your little mouth?”
Shen Xi punched Guan Lei angrily. The next moment, she asked in surprise,
“What engagement? When did we say we were getting engaged?”
Guan Lei looked at Shen Xi with a face full of accusation. He pouted and said, “You didn’t answer me yesterday. Why don’t you answer me now? Are you going to abandon me after getting me?”
Shen Xi was amused by Guan Lei’s logic and said speechlessly, “Guan Lei, you have to use the right word. What do you mean by I’m abandoning you? Besides, we didn’t do anything.”
Guan Lei’s eyes instantly lit up as he said sneakily, “Xi, you don’t want to get engaged to me because of this, right? That’s easy. Come, I’ll give it to you now.”
Guan Lei started to undress himself. Shen Xi was so scared that she quickly covered her eyes and said in a panic, “Guan Lei, you know that’s not what I meant! Stop! You’re acting like a hooligan.”
Looking at Shen Xi who was like a frightened deer, Guan Lei was instantly amused. He grabbed Shen Xi’s hands that were flailing around and comforted her, “Alright, I’ll stop. You’re so shy. Why are you so different from yesterday?
You were holding my hand yesterday…”
Shen Xi covered Guan Lei’s mouth. Her face was flushed red. The tips of her ears instantly runed red too. Her breathing was fast as she threatened, “Guan Lei, stop mentioning about it. Don’t bring up what happened yesterday again,or I won’t go easy on you.”
Guan Lei looked at Shen Xi who was like a little angry beast. She stared at him with her round eyes and warned him without any deterrence. He felt that it was funny. Why was she so cute? He stuck out his tongue to lick Shen Xi’s palm.
Shen Xi was shocked by the itchiness in her palm. She quickly let go of Guan Lei and frowned angrily.
“Alright, I won’t mess with you anymore.” Guan Lei quickly tried to curry favor with her. “Don’t be angry, okay? Let’s go have breakfast, and then I’ll send you to school.”
Shen Xi pouted, “I want Linglong Soup Dumplings.”
“Alright, I’ll buy you a lot of Linglong Soup Dumplings,” Guan Lei said dotingly.
Only then did Shen Xi relax and look at Guan Lei smugly..
