249 Reward
Guan Lei followed closely behind Shen Xi and only reluctantly parted ways with him after she and Li Jin entered the ladies.
For some reason, Guan Lei just could not bear to see Li Jin constantly standing by Shen Xi’s side. He had a feeling that Li Jin was here to ruin his relationship with Shen Xi.
Li Jin, who was being scolded by Guan Lei, looked at Shen Xi, who was washing her hands, and asked, “Shen Xi, do you like Guan Lei?”
Shen Xi, who was washing his hands, paused and asked in confusion, “Why are you asking this?”
Li Jin touched her fringe. “I see that you’re so close to Guan Lei, so I wanted to ask, are you two really in a relationship”
Shen Xi lowered her eyes and thought about it. Actually, she did not know if she liked Guan Lei. However, Li Jin was right. She and Guan Lei had indeed gotten closer, and the distance between them seemed to have exceeded that of ordinary male and female classmates.
It seemed that she had been misunderstood by her classmates. She should stay away from Guan Lei in the future to avoid any unnecessary scandals.
Shen Xi raised her head and smiled. “We’re just ordinary classmates. I’m also very close to Zhao Yuan. You’re overthinking it.”
After receiving Shen Xi’s reply, Li Jin was clearly a little happy. Shen Xi was a little confused, but she did not take it to heart.
The moment Shen Xi stepped out of the door, she saw Guan Lei waiting for her like a silly dog.
When he saw Shen Xi come out, he immediately ran over, baring his teeth. “Let’s go, it’s time for lunch.”
Chen Xi quickly called Li Jin over, but before she could say anything, Guan Lei pulled her far away.
Li Jin could only follow from a distance.
In the afternoon, Zhao Yuan, who really could not calm down to study, suddenly asked, “Are you guys going to Jiang Xue’s engagement party?”
Shen Xi shook her head. “I don’t have time to go.”
“If Xi isn’t going, I’m not going either,” Guan Lei immediately chimed in.
Li Jin looked at Guan Lei. “I’m not really interested. I still want to study with you guys.”
Zhao Yuan nodded at Li Jin. “It seems that everyone is a sensible person, but I still don’t understand. What happened at the birthday banquet has already been spreading like wildfire, but the Xiang Family still wants to have a marriage alliance with the Jiang family. My intuition tells me that there must be something wrong.”
Shen Xi said with amusement, “If you could put your intuition into your studies, you would have been rewarded by your mother for your improvement.”
Zhao Yuan’s eyebrows shot up and she said to Shen Xi proudly, “This time, I’ll definitely get a reward!”
Guan Lei looked at the sneaky smile on Shen Xi’s face and mumbled, “This time, I’ll have a reward too.”
“What reward?” Li Jin asked curiously.
Guan Lei cleared his throat proudly. “It’s a reward for myself. If I do well this time, I’ll reward myself with a girlfriend.”
Li Jin’s hand that was holding the pen paused. Her heart was beating wildly. Was Guan Lei expressing his desire to be in love?
Li Jin felt that since Shen Xi did not like Guan Lei, Guan Lei definitely could not be with her. If Guan Lei really had to have a girlfriend, she would be the most suitable.
Li Jin had decided that once the results of the monthly test were out, she would confess to Guan Lei. It would be best if she appeared in a gentle and considerate manner when Guan Lei was deeply hurt by Shen Xi.
When a man is denied, his heart would be at its most fragile. At this time, if a girl comforted his heart, she would be able to capture his heart very soon.
With that thought in mind, Li Jin’s heart began to fill with excitement. She even began to fantasize about the sweet future of being in a relationship with Guan Lei.
Li Jin was thinking that she would definitely hold Guan Lei’s hand and ride the Ferris wheel. Then, the two of them would eat ice cream together, get into the same school together, date for three to four years, and get married after graduating from college.
When the time comes, they would have two children, one boy, and one girl.
“Li Jin, what are you doing? What are you giggling about?” Zhao Yuan waved her hand in front of Li Jin.
Li Jin instantly came back to her senses. When she thought about how she had just imagined his life with Guan Lei, her face instantly turned red, and he was a little embarrassed to look up at others.
“Don’t tell me you’re thinking of finding yourself a boyfriend after the monthly exam too?” Zhao Yuan asked tentatively.
Li Jin, whose thoughts had been guessed, quickly said, “Don’t spout nonsense. I’m not.”
Zhao Yuan had an expression of disbelief.
