Before their breakfast time was over, Li Zhe suddenly came to visit.

Li Zhe saw Gu Chen in the living room and was slightly stunned. Then he said to Shen Xi, “Shen Xi, I have something to talk to you about in private.”

Since Li Zhe was in such a hurry, it must be about Meng Yu and Guan Lei. Shen

Xi put down the chopsticks in her hand and said to Zhao Yuan and Gu Chen,

“You two continue eating. I’ll be right back.”

Gu Chen glanced at the person Li Zhe brought, then looked back at Shen Xi. His eyebrows relaxed slightly and he smiled. “Alright.”

After saying that, Shen Xi brought Li Zhe to the study room. Seeing that Li Zhe had brought another person with him, she asked with confusion in her eyes, “What is it?”

“Perhaps the Guan family will contact you later to verify what happened that day. I hope you can help Meng Yu,” Li Zhe said truthfully, his eyes full of pleading.

“How do you want me to help you?” Shen Xi asked.

“I hope that when the Guan family asks you if Meng Yu let go on purpose, you can answer that you broke free on your own and that it has nothing to do with Meng Yu,” Li Zhe said solemnly.

“Li Zhe, the one injured this time is my lover. What makes you think that I would lie for Meng Yu? I won’t slander Meng Yu because of Guan Lei’s grandma. Guan Lei and I naturally won’t fabricate facts to protect Meng Yu.

Besides, Guan Lei was also there, so he knew what had happened. Why would I

“Shen Xi, I beg you, please save Meng Yu’s life. As long as you say later that you broke free from Meng Yu and fell down, Grandpa Guan will have a reason to continue protecting Meng Yu. However, if Meng Yu let go on purpose, Grandpa

Guan would have no right to do so, and the Guan family would pursue Meng Yu to the end.”

“I’m sorry, but I can’t help you. The truth was that Meng Yu had let go on purpose. If this was really part of Meng Yu’s scheme against Guan Lei, then Meng Yu was using my life to hurt Guan Lei. He has plotted against me and Guan Lei. I have no reason to help you.” Shen Xi resolutely refused.

“He won’t hurt Guan Lei. Trust me, he’s innocent. There must be some misunderstanding.” Li Zhe had a humble look on his face, hoping that Shen Xi could help him save his lover.

“Since he’s innocent, why did you hide him? Let him come out and we can talk it out in person. Why do you want me to tell such a meaningless lie?” Shen Xi questioned.

“You don’t understand. No matter what he says, it will be considered as an excuse. Just like the incident with Guan Miao ten years ago, he was also a victim, but no one believed him,” Li Zhe said helplessly.

In Li Zhe’s opinion, Meng Yu would never choose to experience such an unbearable thing as being humiliated by others to tempt Guan Miao to save him. At that time, Meng Yu had committed suicide several times after being raped by a man.

Coupled with the fact that Meng Yu had protected Guan Lei all these years, Li Zhe absolutely did not believe that Meng Yu would harm Guan Lei.

However, things were just so coincidental. When Guan Miao and Guan Lei were injured, Meng Yu was at the scene and was also the cause. Li Zhe could not explain this no matter what.

Shen Xi knew that Li Zhe was in a difficult position, but she could not do it. She could only say, “I won’t lie, but if what you said is true, I can help you find out the truth and protect Meng Yu’s life with you.”

Li Zhe sighed dejectedly and said softly, “You are still too naive. Let me show you something.”

Shen Xi nodded. Then, the person who had been following Li Zhe took out a small box and handed it to Shen Xi.

When he opened the box, it was just an ordinary pocket watch. There was nothing special about it.

Shen Xi looked at it for a long time but still couldn’t see anything. Suddenly, her phone rang.

Li Zhe looked at Shen Xi and said, “Shen Xi, your phone is ringing. You should answer it.”

Without a doubt, Shen Xi picked up the phone. It was the old lady of the Guan family, Guan Lei’s grandma.

Shen Xi was still confused. Why was Guan Lei’s grandmother suddenly looking for him?

“Miss Shen, is it convenient for you now? We have something to verify with you. It might take up a little of your time,” Ye Long asked calmly, but her tone was one that could not be rejected.

“Please speak,” said Shen Xi.

“I want to ask, that day on the cliff, was it Meng Yu who deliberately let go of your hand when Guan Lei had just touched it and hadn’t grasped it tightly?” At this moment, the Guan family’s living room was silent. Guan Yi, Ye Long, Guan Yan, Su Han, and Guan Lei, who were sitting not far away, were all waiting for Shen Xi’s answer..
