nShen Xi tried her best to swallow the food in her mouth. Then, she picked up her bag and anxiously went to look for Guan Lei. In the end, she could not find Guan Lei after looking around. She wanted to send Guan Lei a message and call him, but she realized that Guan Lei’s phone was still on the table.

nShen Xi immediately found an attendant and said, “I have something to do now and have to leave first. Please tell my friend that I have something to do and will be leaving first. His phone is still on the table. Please keep a lookout too.”

nAfter saying that, Shen Xi paid the bill and then rushed in the direction Gu Chen sent.

nAt this moment, Guan Lei was in an alley near the kitchen, strangling a person who had been monitoring him and Shen Xi. He asked sternly, “Did Gu Chen send you to monitor Shen Xi?”

nThe man remained silent. Guan Lei laughed coldly and said, “If you don’t speak, I have ways to make you speak.”

nAfter saying that, Guan Lei knocked out the stalker with his hand. He was about to call Xue Li to take the stalker away, but he realized that he did not bring his phone with him.

nGuan Lei stuffed the man into a trash can at the side and then returned to the dining room. He washed his hands, took the juice and power bank, and returned to their seats. However, he found that Shen Xi was not there. Even her bag was gone.

nGuan Lei hurriedly ran over. At this moment, the attendant came forward and said to Guan Lei, “Sir, your friend asked me to tell you that she has something to do and has to leave first.”

nHearing that Shen Xi left on her own, Guan Lei felt a little relieved. He picked up his phone and was about to call Shen Xi to confirm.

nShen Xi, who was feeling excited, looked down and saw Guan Lei’s call. As soon as she picked up the call, Shen Xi said impatiently, “Guan Lei, I might be able to find that person.”

nGuan Lei was slightly stunned and asked, “Who?”

nOn the other end of the phone, Shen Xi was obviously very excited. “It’s the

nperson I drew for you previously. He’s in Beijing now. I’m on my way to find him.”

nShen Xi’s words were like a sharp sword that pierced deeply into Guan Lei’s heart. Guan Lei’s breathing quickened slightly before he asked carefully, “Xi, can you not go?

nShen Xi, who was holding the phone, was slightly stunned. She did not know why Guan Lei would suddenly say this. He clearly knew that she had been looking for this person, so why would he say such a thing?

nSensing the silence on Shen Xi’s side, Guan Lei panicked. He wanted to explain, but he did not know where to start.

nAs long as Shen Xi saw Meng Yu today, then the matter of him deliberately hiding Meng Yu’s existence would be exposed.

n“Xi, I… I suddenly feel a little uncomfortable. Can you come back?” Guan Lei had no other choice. He could only shamelessly pretend to be sick in an attempt to get Shen Xi to come back.

n“You’re not feeling well. What’s wrong?” Shen Xi asked anxiously.

n“I-I might have a stomachache. Can you come back and send me to the hospital?” Guan Lei’s heart was filled with anticipation. He hoped that Shen Xi would choose to come back and find him.

nSo what if his methods were a little underhanded? As long as Shen Xi and Meng Yu did not meet, he would still be Shen Xi’s first choice for a boyfriend.

nOn the other end of the phone, when Shen Xi heard Guan Lei say that he had only eaten something bad, her anxious mood eased slightly. Then, she frowned.

nHer benefactor was someone she had been looking for for a long time, but Guan Lei was someone she liked. Shen Xi was a little hesitant.

nGuan Lei heard that there was no sound from Shen Xi. He frowned slightly and said with a muffled snort, “Xi, it hurts a lot. Come back, okay?”

nShen Xi also felt uncomfortable in her heart. After pondering for a moment, she said, “Alright, stay here and don’t move. I’ll go back immediately.”

nWhen Guan Lei heard Shen Xi’s reply, his expression that had lost hope like a dead tree earlier was instantly filled with radiance again. His entire person became alive again. He weakly and obediently replied, “Alright, Xi, I’ll wait for you here until you arrive.”

nShen Xi hung up the phone and immediately asked the driver to turn around.

nHowever, the next moment, Shen Xi received a message from Gu Chen. “Xi,

ndon’t come over for the time being. I heard that someone is going after the person you mentioned. I’m bringing people over now, hoping that I can save him.”

nShen Xi’s eyes instantly widened. On one side was her benefactor who had encountered danger, and on the other side was the person she liked who was having a stomachache. Shen Xi’s entire person became manic.

nIn the end, Shen Xi called Zhao Yuan directly. “Yuan, do you have time now? Can you help me pick Guan Lei up at Defu Building and send him to the hospital? I’ve sent you the location of the address..”
