Guan Bo, who was far away in Jing city, was lying on his bed, crying and wailing about his butt and dignity when he received a call from Guan Lei.

Guan Lei looked at the caller ID and was stunned for a moment before picking up.

Before Guan Bo could say anything, he heard Guan Lei’s angry roar from the other end of the phone. “Guan Bo, what the hell are you doing? What did you do with Jiang Xue in my name? You even got your butt bitten! Damn it, my reputation has been completely ruined by you in one night!

“No, brother, weren’t you… overseas?” Guan Bo asked in confusion. “How did you know all this? Has the news spread so quickly? It’s all spread abroad?”

Only then did Guan Lei remember that other than his own family, even his second grandpa’s relatives didn’t know where he was now. He said perfunctorily with a strong threat, “You don’t need to know how I found out. Anyway, you’re the one who ruined my reputation, so you have to be responsible for clearing my name. Otherwise, you know what I can do.”

“No, cousin, listen to me. Nothing happened between me and Jiang Xue. It’s just It was just a little ambiguous. Moreover, she was the one who approached me and offered herself to me. You can’t blame me for this! As for that butt-biting incident, it was purely an accident. I’m also a victim. I’m your cousin, your cousin, and I suffered a lot pretending to be you. I’m sacrificing myself to save a righteous person!” Guan Bo howled into his phone, feeling wronged.

“Don’t cry in front of me. I don’t care what method you use, but you can do as you see fit! Especially that Jiang Xue. Don’t associate that kind of woman with me.” Guan Lei said viciously.

Thinking about how Shen Xi had misunderstood him, Guan Lei was so angry that he wanted to give Guan Bo a good beating.

Guan Bo frowned and said awkwardly, “You should ask Li Zhe about Jiang Xue He was the one who asked me to create the scandal with Jiang Xue. I don’t know why he asked me to do it. He didn’t tell me either.”

Guan Lei frowned slightly. Li Zhe? Why?

Guan Lei pushed the wheelchair to Meng Yu’s room. Li Zhe was definitely in Meng Yu’s room.

Li Zhe heard a sound at the door and looked up. It was Guan Lei, who had pushed the door open in his wheelchair.

“There’s something I want to ask you.” Guan Lei asked directly.

Li Zhe lowered his eyes and tucked Meng Yu in, then asked, “What is it?”

“Did you ask Guan Bo to spread the news about my close relationship with Jiang Xue?” Guan Lei asked.

“Yes!” Li Zhe did not wait for Guan Lei to ask why and immediately explained, “Since the people who came to kill you this time could find their way to the island, they would naturally be able to find their way to Zhuo Ying High School in Rong City. By then, they would definitely be able to find out about you and Shen Xi. I can tell that you value Shen Xi very much.”

At this point, Li Zhe turned to look at Meng Yu and continued, “If Shen Xi’s existence is discovered by those people, then it would be difficult to guarantee her safety. When the time comes, they’ll use Shen Xi to threaten you. What would you do then?”

Guan Lei suddenly understood Li Zhe’s intention. That’s right, he had been in hiding for more than ten years. This time, he was actually attacked on the island. This meant that those people must have found some clues. If one day they used Shen Xi to threaten him…

“Since they chose to attack both places, it means one thing. They were still not sure which one was the real me. That’s why we chose to send assassins to both the capital city and the island just in case.” Guan Lei continued.

“Yes. So, if the news of Jiang Xue and Young Master Guan’s relationship were to spread and Jiang Xue received some benefits from the Guan family, those people would think that the person in Beijing is the real you. That way, not only you will be safe, but Shen Xi will be safe as well. However, that substitute Jiang Xue may have to pray for herself.” Li Zhe’s thin lips curled up as he spoke.

Thinking of Jiang Xue, Guan Lei snorted. Jiang Xue wanted to get herself involved in this mess. She will bear the consequences herself.

After hearing Li Zhe’s explanation, Guan Lei tacitly agreed to the damage to his reputation. However, when he thought about Shen Xi’s evaluation of Young Master Guan, he felt aggrieved.

Guan Lei was vexed for a while, then asked about Meng Yu’s situation before returning to his room.

After Guan Lei left, Li Zhe’s gaze returned to Meng Yu’s pale face. He placed his right hand on the back of Meng Yu’s hand and muttered, “Meng Yu, you have to wake up properly. I’m waiting for you..”
