Guan Lei sat beside Shen Xi with a mischievous smile. “Since Xi likes me, I’ll take good care of her tonight.”
Shen Xi clenched her teeth and ruthlessly pinched Guan Lei’s waist. His playful expression instantly turned sour.
Zhao Yuan had grown accustomed to Guan Lei’s childishness in front of Shen Xi, while Guan Bo, on the other hand, continued to watch Guan Lei curiously.
After all, Guan Lei always wore a cold and fierce expression in front of him. “Xi, what a coincidence!” An untimely voice interrupted.
Clad in a black casual shirt, Gu Chen appeared before everyone with a cheerful greeting to Shen Xi.
Shen Xi hadn’t expected to encounter Gu Chen here, especially not while he was clad in the black shirt that she remembered as the most alluring. Particularly, with the top two buttons undone, revealing the enticing curve of his neck and the defined lines of his collarbone – her favorite spots to nibble at!
Various scenes flooded her mind, causing a blush to color her cheeks and her heart to race. Even the sound of Gu Chen’s passionate and light gasps seemed unusually vivid. Those were memories of their intimate moments!
Thinking about this, Shen Xi’s face turned red, and her voice stuttered, “You, that, um! What a coincidence!”
Zhao Yuan looked slightly surprised at Shen Xi. Seeing Shen Xi nervous in front of Gu Chen was a stark contrast to her usual distant and cool demeanor.
Zhao Yuan’s gaze shifted to Guan Lei on the side. Indeed, Guan Lei’s face had instantly darkened. She sighed inwardly; love was indeed a troublesome thing.
Fortunately, she only indulged in the physical aspects and avoided emotional entanglements.
Shen Xi felt awkward. She desperately wanted to shake off those inappropriate images from her mind, but every time she looked at Gu Chen, she couldn’t stop reminiscing.
Gu Chen moved a chair from the side and sat next to Shen Xi, asking with concern, “Xi, what’s wrong? Your complexion doesn’t look good.”
Shen Xi quickly turned her face to the other side, not letting Gu Chen see the blush on her face. Unexpectedly, her gaze collided with Guan Lei’s deep eyes.
The palpitations and tenderness that had filled her heart instantly dissipated when she saw the deep, cold gaze of Guan Lei.
Even so, Guan Lei still felt hurt. Shen Xi’s coyness in front of Gu Chen was something he was quite familiar with.
A faint smile appeared on Gu Chen’s face, but it couldn’t hide his captivating beauty, causing Zhao Yuan on the opposite side to pause her breath.
Although Gu Chen wasn’t a good person, Zhao Yuan had to admit that his appearance was truly mesmerizing, like a fox spirit. She had known this the first time she saw Gu Chen four years ago.
But before Zhao Yuan could enjoy the beautiful sight for long, Guan Bo on the side became jealous. He turned Zhao Yuan’s face toward him, expressing his displeasure as he firmly took hold of her hand. He whispered in her ear, “What are you looking at? Am I not enough for you to see?”
Seeing Guan Bo smoldering in jealousy, Zhao Yuan regained some composure and teasingly said, “I’ve seen enough of you. Maybe I’m a little tired of it, so I’m looking at other men. What? Do you have a problem?”
Zhao Yuan found amusement in Guan Bo, who was practically steaming with anger.
She admitted to having some fondness for Guan Bo, but she hadn’t forgotten what happened four years ago. Blame it on Guan Bo for having provoked such a petty person who held grudges.
Infuriated, Guan Bo tried to pull Zhao Yuan away, but she firmly sat on the chair, refusing to yield.
Unable to use force, Guan Bo could only sit on the side and sulk.
If he had known that Zhao Yuan was so vindictive and hard to placate, he wouldn’t have done what he did four years ago.
Punishing Zhao Yuan for a night had resulted in her punishing him for four years, and she still wouldn’t relent.
Because of Gu Chen’s arrival, the atmosphere at the table became strangely tense.
Gu Chen looked affectionately at Shen Xi and suggested, “Why is everyone suddenly so reserved? How about we play a game? I remember there’s a game called Truth or Dare. I haven’t played it before. Shall we?”
All eyes turned to Guan Lei.
Gu Chen knew very well that Shen Xi currently had a confused memory, mistaking him for her lover. Yet, he suggested playing Truth or Dare right in front of Guan Lei.. Wasn’t this a provocation?
