“Do you want to participate in a competition or something?” Shen Xi turned to Guan Lei.

Guan Lei didn’t mind. This kind of competition wasn’t very important to him.

However, with his current status, it was not appropriate for him to participate. This was because if he participated in a competition, his identity would be easily found out.

“I might not participate.” Guan Lei shook his head.

Hearing Guan Lei say that he wouldn’t participate, Shen Xi was slightly disappointed because many of the competition finals were held in Beijing.

Shen Xi wanted to bring Guan Lei to Beijing with her.

Her grandfathers were both in Beijing. If her parents went back in the future, they would definitely also be in Beijing, so there was a high chance that she would be located in Beijing too.

If Guan Lei didn’t develop his career in Beijing in the future, wouldn’t their relationship become a long-distance one?

“Have you thought about where you want to go to university in the future? Shen Xi looked at Guan Lei and asked nervously.

Guan Lei thought about it. The biggest possibility was that he return to Beijing. After hiding for so many years, there was a high chance he would officially appear in Beijing as the heir of the Guan Family in the next one or two years.

While Guan Lei was deep in thought, Shen Xi didn’t realize she was so nervous she almost forgot to breathe. It wasn’t until Guan Lei said that he would be in Beijing that Shen Xi heaved a sigh of relief.

“Then which school do you plan to apply to?” Shen Xi’s voice was filled with joy.

“I haven’t decided yet. I’ll think about it when the time comes,” Guan Lei said after some thought.

Shen Xi nodded happily and asked, “I’m participating in a chemistry competition this time. I might be training in Beijing for half a month.”

Guan Lei instantly frowned. “Half a month? That long? When?”

“December 14th to December 30th. After exams on December 30th, we can go home to celebrate New Year’s Day.” Shen Xi replied. This was the first New Year that she and her parents were celebrating, so Shen Xi definitely had to go back.

Guan Lei pondered for a moment and said, “I suddenly remembered that I also have a competition to participate in. We can go together.”

“What competition?” Shen Xi asked curiously.

“A boxing match.” Guan Lei coughed.

After two seconds of silence, Shen Xi said, “Yes, it’s quite good. It suits you.”

Guan Lei couldn’t help but laugh out loud. Then, he pretended to be angry and said, “I feel like you’re a little disgusted?”

Shen Xi quickly waved her hand and defended herself. “That’s not it. I didn’t. I just didn’t think it through. ‘

Guan Lei turned his little head and said proudly, “Alright, I’ll pretend you didn’t. Then where are you going to take the exam in the future?

When he asked Shen Xi, Guan Lei felt a little uneasy. He didn’t want to be in a long-distance relationship with Shen Xi. He wanted to be with Shen Xi all the time, now and in the future.

“Beijing.” Shen Xi said.

Guan Lei’s heart instantly jumped for joy. It seemed that his fate with Shen Xi was destined.

In just a few days, Huang Min’s mother had already taken back everything that belonged to her from Huang Fei’s hands, although she had some losses as well.

When Huang Min came to find Shen Xi with good news, Shen Xi had just finished participating in the Rong City qualifiers.

“Shen Xi, let me reintroduce myself. My name is Ye Min. I changed my surname.” Ye Min, who had changed her name, reached out her hand to Shen

Xi.

Shen Xi was also happy for Ye Min and extended her hand to celebrate, “Congratulations, Ye Min.”

“I don’t know what kind of virtues I must have accumulated in my previous life to meet you.” Ye Min sighed. “If it wasn’t for you, Shen Xi, I think I wouldn’t have had a good ending in my life.”

What did you do in your previous life? Shen Xi smiled. It was probably because of Ye Min’s eagerness to confide about her previous life and her incomparable confidence.

If Ye Min hadn’t told everything to Shen Xi in her previous life, if she hadn’t gotten close to Shen Xi and told her about the sadness in her heart, perhaps the two of them wouldn’t have met.

Then in this life, Shen Xi wouldn’t have met Ye Min in the small forest, right?

“Maybe it’s because you talk too much?” Shen Xi laughed.

Ye Min was stunned for a moment. Was it because of what she said?

Shen Xi looked at the confused Ye Min and laughed out loud, making Ye Min even more confused.

“Alright, alright, I was just joking. Since we can meet in this life, it must be that our fate in the previous life has not ended, so we have to make up for it in this life.” Shen Xi’s words were a little metaphysical, but they amused Ye Min.

Guan Lei saw that the two of them were almost done chatting, so he came forward.

Ye Min looked at Guan Lei and bowed to him cautiously. She thanked him, “I know you helped me because of Shen Xi, but I still want to formally express my gratitude.”

Guan Lei nodded lightly, accepting Ye Min’s gratitude.

After watching Ye Min leave, Guan Lei pulled Shen Xi back to the library, muttering, “Hurry up and do your exams well. When the time comes, you’ll go to Beijing..”
