Guan Lei turned to look at Chen Yu. A smile suddenly appeared on his face, but that smile could not hide the arrogance in his eyes.
“Why should I be angry?” he said arrogantly. It’s been four years and Xi hasn’t accepted you. What’s there to be arrogant about? If I remember correctly, Xi has rejected you every day for the past four years, right?”
Chen Yu’s expression instantly darkened, but he was still unwilling to admit defeat and said, “So what? In these four years, I was the man closest to Xi.
Guan Lei, I won’t give up. I’ll let Xi know that I’m the most suitable for her.”
“Alright, then let’s wait and see who is the most suitable for Xi.” Guan Lei said firmly.
Chen Yu snorted coldly and left with his bodyguards.
Guan Lei sighed slightly, then drove aimlessly to the front gate of Shen Xi’s villa, and then turned to the villa opposite Shen Xi’s.
Looking at the desolate yard, Guan Lei called Xue Li. “Find some time to get someone to clean up the villa in the middle of Adana. I want to move in.”
Xue Li was stunned for a while before he remembered that Guan Lei had indeed bought a villa to be closer to Shen Xi.
Four years had passed, and he had forgotten about the existence of this villa. Now that he remembered it again, it seemed that Guan Lei wanted to be closer to Shen Xi and win her heart. Xue Li agreed quickly and then arranged for someone to clean it quickly.
Guan Lei stood in front of the window on the second floor and looked in Shen Xi!s direction.
When he found out that the Shen and Lu families had bought the villa here for Shen Xi, he also excitedly bought the villa opposite Shen Xi. However, before the renovation could be completed, the two of them separated.
After that, when the villa was finished renovating, he did not even come to take a look.
Which room was Xi in? What was she doing?
Shen Xi bit her finger as she looked at the computer to think about her thesis. However, her mind kept going blank. She could not help but think of Guan Lei, who was wearing a suit and exuding a mature charm.
Shen Xi shook her head vigorously. The force was so strong that it almost shook her brain. However, she was unable to shake Guan Lei out of her mind.
The nanny knocked on the door and came in with afternoon tea after receiving Shen Xi’s permission.
“Young miss, this is the coffee and fruit cake you wanted.” The nanny placed the afternoon tea beside Shen Xi’s desk.
She did not eat much at noon. In order to not let her brain be affected by hunger, Shen Xi could only eat something to fill her empty stomach.
“The owner of the house opposite seems to have returned. I saw more than ten cleaners come just now. They’re cleaning the house inside and out now.” The nanny gossiped.
“Is that so?” Shen Xi looked outside curiously. From the second floor, she saw a few cleaners cleaning the windows.
Four years ago, her Aunt said that she wanted to buy another set next door, so she took a fancy to the one opposite her. In the end, she heard that it had already been sold.
Then, the owner of the house started to renovate in a hurry.
However, four years had passed. The renovation opposite had been completed long ago, but no one had lived there for four years. Shen Xi had even joked at that time that the owner had too much money and had nowhere to spend it.
Shen Xi retracted her gaze. She was not very curious about her neighbour.
After having afternoon tea, Shen Xi was about to continue her thesis when he received a call from her mother, Lu Shan.
“Mom? What’s wrong?” Shen Xi asked.
“Xi,” Lu Shan said on the other end of the phone, “there’s a banquet tonight. Come with me. Your health has almost recovered. What your grandfather means is that you have to learn to adapt to the family business.”
Shen Xi instantly wailed. God knew that she only wanted to be a little girl who flew a plane. She said pitifully, “Are we starting today?”
“Be good. Hurry up and pack up. I’ll get the makeup team to style you later. You’ll have to come into contact with these sooner or later. If you learn slowly now, you won’t be flustered later. It was just a small banquet today. It will be fine.” Lu Shan coaxed patiently on the other end of the phone.
Shen Xi whined with a sad face. In the end, she compromised and said, “Alright, I’ll get ready!’
After hanging up the phone, Shen Xi nestled in the huge fluffy chair and suddenly looked at herself with disdain.
It seemed that she was a little arrogant because of her parents! favour. In this life, with her parents around, she was a little more delicate. She actually thought of wasting time and did not even want to go to work..
