“Everyone said that I was an illegitimate daughter, but nobody knew that my mother was raped by my beast father. Because of the Sun family’s wealth and power, in the end, they forced my mother to admit that she was the one who seduced him. Mom had no choice but to go far away. Even so, they still wouldn’t let my mother off. Don’t you think they should all die?” When Sun Ming said this, her voice was a little choked and hoarse.
Guan Lei apologized again. Sun Ming waved her hand and said, “It’s okay. I just want to make it clear to you. I’m afraid that you’ll come to persuade me again next time. After all, I didn’t want them to live well. I don’t want anyone to interfere with my plan.”
Guan Lei frowned slightly but didn’t say anything. He felt a little guilty. Why did he say this out of the blue? He even made Sun Ming to open up about her dark past.
“Alright, you can go back first. I’ll let you know when I bring those two back.” Sun Ming’s smile returned to normal. He was the younger brother of her lover. Sun Ming would not reveal the cruel side when she was facing an enemy.
Guan Lei nodded and left. However, he didn’t know when Sun Ming would bring them back, so he continued to investigate in secret.
Guan Ba and Guan Jiu were sent by Guan Lei to protect Shen Xi in secret. At the moment, they were nervously looking at Gu Chen who was chatting with Shen Xi. The way they talked and laughed made them feel awkward for their Young Master.
“Do you think we should report about Ms. Shen Xi’s contact with Gu Chen?” Guan Ba asked solemnly.
“They sounded like ordinary greetings. He shouldn’t have any bad motives, right?” Guan Jiu answered without confidence as he listened nervously.
Guan Ba glared at Guan Jiu and said, “What do you know? Other than using her, there could be something else. Ms. Shen Xi is so good-looking. Perhaps, Gu
Chen wants to snatch her away.”
Guan Jiu suddenly understood. His voice was extremely low but full of vigilance as he said, “That makes sense. Every time Gu Chen hears about Young Master’s whereabouts, he will come and snatch things. However, that isn’t right. The latest news today is about Young Master and Jiang Xue’s engagement. Then, Gu Chen should have hooked up with Jiang Xue, right?”
After saying that, both of their expressions became serious. Guan Ba’s eyes were a little uneasy. “Do you think Gu Chen has already known how Young Master look like?”
Guan Jiu nodded in agreement. He had to report this matter to Young Master as soon as possible.
Shen Xi who was chatting with Gu Chen had no idea what was going on here.
She just chatted with Gu Chen politely. On the other hand, Zhao Yuan who was standing beside him was quite talkative.
Meanwhile, Shen Xi’s thoughts had long drifted to the unexpected scene yesterday. Her face was burning. Shen Xi tried hard to stop thinking about it but she failed. She felt very helpless.
Gu Chen looked at Shen Xi who was absent-minded. Her slightly pink cheeks were hidden in the furry collar. She looked very sweet, making people want to get close to her.
Shen Xi didn’t care about him at all. She wasn’t even interested in him. This made Gu Chen a little sad, but it was okay. They had just met. When they got familiar with each other, he reckoned Shen Xi would behave differently.
She would probably run to his side and hug him warmly. She would call him “Ah Chen” with a soft and sweet tone. She would fall for him then.
Seeing that Gu Chen was in a daze, Zhao Yuan shouted in confusion, “Gu Chen, what are you thinking about?”
Gu Chen came back to his senses and smiled at Zhao Yuan. He said, “It is my birthday this Sunday. I want to invite all of you to my birthday party. I’ll be very happy if you can join.”
“Yes, yes. Of course.” Zhao Yuan nodded repeatedly.
It had to be said that Gu Chen was too good-looking. He was as exquisite as a doll. Zhao Yuan was totally obsessed in him.
“Xi, what about you?” Gu Chen turned his head and asked Shen Xi with a faint smile. He raised his eyebrows and seemed to be flirting with her.
Shen Xi was a little awkward. After all, she only met Gu Chen for three times. It was a little strange to be called so intimately. However, she remembered that Gu Chen was Gu Xing’s younger brother. Her benefactor in previous life knew
Gu Xing. Perhaps her benefactor would attend Gu Chen’s birthday party, right?
Hence, Shen Xi smiled and nodded. “Okay, I’ll be there.” Gu Chen was delighted when he heard that Shen Xi was joining..
