Chapter 893: Flat Tire
....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 I’ll take my little Yuan home first.’
Facing Guan Bo’s clearly nonsensical words, Zhao Yuan responded by giving him a sharp pinch around the waist.
Ye Min also spoke, “I’m taking my little friend home too. You guys take your time.”
Han Cheng, referred to as the little friend, blushed instantly.
As for Shen Xi’s situation, neither Ye Min nor Zhao Yuan were concerned.
As long as Guan Lei was with Shen Xi, they didn’t have to worry about Shen Xi being taken away by Gu Chen.
Moreover, Shen Xi was no pushover; her partial memory loss didn’t make her a fool.
Shen Xi watched the four leave, then turned to the other two and said, “I’ll 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 don’t 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, wouldn’t we understand each other? When Xi and I have been married for more than a decade, I don’t believe I won’t 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, it’s 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 would’ve thought you had so many tricks up your sleeve!’
Guan Bo immediately became fl.u.s.tered and laughed, “Isn’t 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 Bo’s 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? Haven’t 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 that’s the case, how about I give you a ride home? We’re neighbors, and it’s really on the way, isn’t it?” Guan Lei earnestly suggested. Shen Xi considered for a moment; it didn’t seem like a bad idea.
“Alright, don’t think too much about it. It’s just a ride,” Guan Lei continued to persuade Shen Xi. “As for your car, I’ll have Xue Li come down to help you or wait for the repair shop to send someone. It’s almost two in the morning now; it’s 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 Lei’s breath as he did so.
The proximity that could easily spark flames made Shen Xi’s body tense up.
Fortunately, after fastening the seatbelt, Guan Lei immediately retreated to the driver’s 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 Xi’s parents, friends, and relatives were all on Guan Lei’s side.
Gu Chen’s fists were clenched tightly as he looked at Guan Lei’s 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 hadn’t thought about that ball that had accompanied him for so long.
But at this moment, he suddenly felt a sense of powerlessness—a feeling of being unable to have Shen Xi. Hence, he wanted to grab onto something to feel secure..
