Rebirth: The Fake Young Lady Is A Real Young Lady Novel - Chapter 221

221 A Failed Confession

Guan Lei, who had already said his piece, was shameless and replied, “I’m very serious. Didn’t you take physiological health classes in junior high? It’s normal to have such a reaction. I just want to get close to the person I like, and kiss and hug her.”

Shen Xi was stunned. This was the first time she had seen Guan Lei’s hooligan-like temperament.

Although Guan Lei used to be unruly and roguish, he was not as shameless and dirty as he was now.

When a person was shameless, it was very difficult to have a proper conversation. Shen Xi immediately shut her mouth, got up, and returned to her bed, snuggling herself under the blanket.

!!
Guan Lei hurriedly got up and followed Shen Xi to her bedside. He asked carefully, “Are you angry?”

Shen Xi’s voice came from under the blanket. “No!”

“You are. You usually go to the bathroom to change into your pajamas before going to bed. You didn’t change into your pajamas today.” Guan Lei tugged at Shen Xi’s blanket and quickly let it go.

This was because he felt that his actions were like a pervert who wanted to pull away the blanket and molest a young girl.

For some reason, Shen Xi had always changed into her pajamas naturally, but after Guan Lei’s confession today, she felt a little embarrassed.

At that moment, Shen Xi only wanted to hide under the blanket, so she could only say perfunctorily, “I don’t want to change into those pajamas anymore. It doesn’t look good.”

Guan Lei looked at the set of pajamas that Shen Xi had placed at the head of the bed and recalled how Shen Xi had looked in it before. He thought that it looked pretty good.

“It seems like Shen Xi is really angry,” Guan Lei thought in frustration. His chest felt stuffy as he said in a low voice, “Oh! Then I’ll turn off the lights.”

Guan Lei went back to his bed in low spirits. This was the first time he had ever confessed to someone, and it had ended in failure.

In fact, Guan Lei had had a plan for his confession.

Originally, he had planned to pull the saving the damsel in distress stunt as Xue Li suggested so that Shen Xi would take care of him out of guilt. Then, as the two of them developed feelings for each other over time, he would choose a good day to give Shen Xi a romantic confession.

However, who would have thought that his desire would abruptly surface? Guan Lei did not expect Shen Xi to notice his desire for her and even find out that he was pretending to be sick, forcing him to confess in advance to remedy the situation.

After all, it was better to have desires because he liked someone than to fantasize about women. Otherwise, Shen Xi might think of him as some dirty pervert.

But now, it seemed like his efforts at salvaging the situation was useless. Shen Xi must now think that he was a pervert.

Thinking of that, Guan Lei was so angry that he directly pinched his half-soft and half-hard member. However, he used too much force and groaned in pain.

Shen Xi, who was hiding under the blanket, perked her ears. Thinking that Guan Lei was doing something inappropriate for children, she angrily covered her ears.

The two of them stayed up late into the night with different thoughts in their minds. Finally, Shen Xi could not stand it any longer and fell into a deep sleep.

Guan Lei was relieved when he heard the faint and even breathing from the bed next to his.

Guan Lei inched toward Shen Xi and, as usual, held her hand before falling asleep with a warned heart.

Under the night sky, in a building in the southeast corner of Rong City, a handsome young man was swirling a glass of red wine. He said indifferently, “You mean Madam Jiang from Kunlun Construction?”

“Yes!” The assistant answered Meng Yu respectfully.

“She’s just a middle-aged woman. What connection does she have with Ah Lei?” Meng Yu asked, puzzled.

“According to my investigation, it’s related to the young lady from the Jiang family,” the assistant replied.

Meng Yu suddenly became interested and gossiped,”Could it be that this Madam Jiang favours the rich and wants to break up the couple? Is that why she got someone to beat up our Ah Lei?”

The assistant was speechless. The boss’s bad taste in making up stories hadn’t changed.

“It’s a dispute between the real and fake daughters of the Jiang family. It’s said that the real daughter, Jiang Xue, had fallen in love with Xiang Cheng from Xiang Group, but Xiang Cheng has been pestering the fake daughter, Shen Xi. On the other hand, Shen Xi and the young master are very close. There are rumors that the two of them are in a relationship, and the reason why Young Master had a fight with Xiang Cheng was also because of this Shen Xi.” The assistant reported the information in the way Meng Yu enjoyed hearing.
