254 Familiar Figure

Shen Xi was even more confused when she heard Guan Lei’s words. She had no idea what the reason was.

However, no matter how coincidental things were, feelings were feelings. Shen Xi did not think that she liked Guan Lei, so she would not easily agree to give it a try.

In Shen Xi’s eyes, a relationship was a where both people chose each other without hesitation, just like her parents. If there was even the slightest bit of reluctance or compromisation in a relationship, it would never be perfect.

Shen Xi sighed softly. “I’m sorry, Guan Lei.”

With that, Shen Xi turned around and left the room.

Guan Lei asked loudly as he followed behind, “Can’t you just give it a try? Not just a little?”

Shen Xi was about to turn around when she suddenly saw a familiar figure.

Without thinking, Shen Xi immediately chased after the figure. However, Guan Lei pulled on the hem of her shirt, and Shen Xi became anxious. Her voice became a little louder as she said to Guan Lei, “Guan Lei, let go. I still have something to do.”

Guan Lei was extremely upset and his voice sounded like he was begging, “Even if you don’t want to date me, I’m very upset now. Can you accompany me for a while?”

Shen Xi turned to Guan Lei and said, “I’ll console you properly tonight, alright? I’m going to find someone now.”

Guan Lei’s heart ached. “You’re going to leave me and find someone else? ”

Shen Xi’s patience was running out, and she said helplessly, “Guan Lei, can you please stop? I really have something important to do right now.”

With that, Shen Xi broke free from Guan Lei’s grasp and hurriedly chased after the figure.

Guan Lei looked at Shen Xi’s departing back with grief and leaned against the wall powerlessly.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

At first, Guan Lei thought that he would be able to have a sweet time with Shen Xi that day, but now, before he could taste the sweetness of love, he had tasted the bitterness of love first.

“Guan Lei, are you okay?” Li Jin walked out from the corner and asked Guan Lei with concern.

Guan Lei glanced at Li Jin and his sad expression immediately turned cold. He said in a cold tone, “Stay away from me.”

The boy she loved was currently hurt, and this was the best time to take advantage of this. How could Li Jin leave?

Li Jin carefully approached Guan Lei and said with concern, “Aren’t you in a bad mood? I’ll accompany you to relieve your emotions.”

Guan Lei glanced at Li Jin but did not say anything. He looked away and looked at the ground to ease his emotions after being rejected.

Li Jin knew that Guan Lei was not in a good mood, so she made a face and jumped in front of Guan Lei, trying to make him happy.

However, Guan Lei did not expect Li Jin to suddenly come so close that he subconsciously pushed her away, causing her to fall to the ground.

After Li Jin let out a shriek she sat on the ground with an aggrieved expression and said, “It hurts … Guan Lei, I was just trying to make you happy. You don’t have to be so heavy-handed, do you?”

Guan Lei looked at Li Jin coldly. He did not care about Li Jin at all. He stood up straight and was about to leave.

Li Jin quickly got up from the ground and stood in front of Guan Lei. She straightened her neck and said, “Guan Lei, do you really not know how I feel about you? I like you. I’ve liked you since the first time I saw you.”

Guan Lei snorted, “What does it have to do with me? Move, don’t block the way!”

How could Li Jin let Guan Lei go? She continued to spread her arms and said to Guan Lei, “You just asked Shen Xi if she could give it a try. Now, can’t you give me a chance?”

After hearing Li Jin’s words, Guan Lei paused for a moment and recalled the sad incident of being rejected by Chen Xi.

Li Jin thought that Guan Lei was considering whether he wanted to be with her, so she struck while the iron was hot and said, “Just now, Shen Xi went to chase a boy. Perhaps Shen Xi already has someone she likes. Instead of liking someone whose heart already belongs to someone else, you might as well like me. After all, I’m the one who likes you.”

When Guan Lei heard that Shen Xi had gone to chase a boy, he felt uncomfortable. When he heard that Shen Xi already had someone she liked and that person was not him, Guan Lei felt as if his heart had been pierced by several arrows, and he was so upset that he could not breathe.

The thought of Shen Xi being with someone else made Guan Lei uncomfortable.

“Get lost!” Guan Lei’s anger came quickly, and his attitude towards Li Jin became colder.

“Guan Lei, have you really forgotten about me? I’m Li Jin, Li Jin from Li Industries. We’ve met before.” Li Jin did not want to give up just like that.
