Chapter 310 - 310 The 20 Million Stones

310 The 20 Million Stones

Shen Xi felt that she had no way to clear her name now.

She should have taken out all the gifts Guan Lei’s uncle had given her in front of everyone that day.

Guan Lei received a call from Li Zhe at this moment.

“You still have the nerve to call me.” Guan Lei gritted his teeth.

!!

Li Zhe laughed awkwardly and said, “I meant well. I was out of good intentions. I didn’t expect things would turn out like this.”

Guan Lei laughed. “Good intentions? What kind of good intentions do you have? Who would just give away money for no reason?”

On the other end of the phone, Li Zhe also knew he had miscalculated this time. He humbly explained, “I read on your school forum this morning that you can’t afford to support Shen Xi. I just want to make you proud. Look at your two love rivals. How rich are they? You’re just a poor person now, how can you compare to them?”

“Xi isn’t someone you can buy with money,” said Guan Lei unhappily.

Li Zhe said, “Yes, yes, yes. Your Xi isn’t such a shallow person. But the two of them aren’t bad either. One is the Movie King Lu, and the other is a well-known medical professor. Look at those young girls, which one of them isn’t so fascinated that they’re running behind them?”

“This matter isn’t over yet!” Guan Lei snorted.

After that, Guan Lei hung up the phone and stood on the balcony, thinking of a solution. He was so worried that his eyebrows had not dropped since he hung up the phone.

However, before Guan Lei could think of a solution, the police had already found Shen Xi. Even the form teacher and the level head were alarmed. Groups and groups of people gathered outside Shen Xi’s dormitory.

Shen Xi was in a difficult position when she saw the police blocking the entrance of the dormitory. She wasn’t sure where Guan Lei’s uncle got the money, and she was still considering whether she should confess.

“Student Shen Xi, I hope that you’ll tell us the truth about the origin of this huge sum of money. Otherwise, we might have to ask you to go to the police station to assist in the investigation,” said the police officer.

Just as Shen Xi was in a dilemma, a voice suddenly came from the door of the dormitory. “This money belongs to my family. It has nothing to do with Shen Xi.”

The crowd made way for the person who spoke. When they saw that it was Guan Lei, they were all in disbelief.

Liu Chen said to the police officer, “Don’t believe this man, sir. His family is so poor that they can’t possibly have three million. He’s probably trying to be Shen Xi’s scapegoat. That’s right, he’s courting Shen Xi.”

The police officer looked at Guan Lei sternly. “Student, you’ll be punished for lying to the police.”

Guan Lei gave Shen Xi a reassuring look. Then he stood beside her and fearlessly said to the police, “I didn’t lie. I was the one who asked my uncle to give the money to Shen Xi. Of course, I’m indeed courting Shen Xi.”

Guan Lei’s words made a group of boys outside the dormitory whistle.

Shen Xi tugged at Guan Lei and whispered, “Don’t spout nonsense.”

Guan Lei shook his head at Shen Xi adorably. He was not spouting nonsense. He was indeed wooing Shen Xi.

Guan Lei turned around and saw a pile of stones on the table. He turned to the police officer and smiled. “Isn’t it normal to give gifts and money when you’re wooing girls?”

The police didn’t expect Guan Lei to be so calm. He didn’t show any fear in front of the police. “There’s nothing wrong with wooing girls and giving them money. It’s just that someone called the police, so we naturally have to investigate. Since you said that you asked your uncle to send the three million, can you show us proof? Or rather, I would like you and your uncle to prove that the source of the funds is legitimate.”

Guan Lei pointed at a few large rocks on Shen Xi’s table and asked the people around him, “Do you know what these are?”

The people around looked at the stones that Guan Lei had mentioned, but they couldn’t find anything after a long time. They were all confused.

The police didn’t get the answer he wanted, so he said impatiently, “Student, we’re talking about the three million that appeared out of thin air. According to the information provided by your classmate, your family can’t have such a huge amount of cash.”

Guan Lei walked to the table and touched the stone. “Three million is nothing. These stones worth 20 million.”

Guan Lei’s words caused an uproar.

“Guan Lei, are you kidding? Just those broken stones?” Liu Cheng thought that Guan Lei had gone crazy. She did not know whether to laugh or cry.
