Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Shen Xi knew that Guan Lei might not be able to do it, but wasn’t she also uncertain?

Because Guan Lei did not trust her and had even abandoned her. So, she did not easily agree to Guan Lei’s renewed pursuit. She wanted Guan Lei to learn a lesson and let him understand that there must be absolute trust between couples, right?

However, could she really afford this gamble?

What if she gave up on the inheritance of the Shen and Lu families?

The Shen family still had cousin Zheng Huai, so it was not impossible. The Lu family also had Lu Lin. Although he wasn’t their biological son their grandparents still treated him as their own.

At the very least…

Shen Xi fixed her gaze on Lu Shan’s stomach and said whimsically, “Dad, Mom, why don’t you have another child? There was still time while you were still young. Father, you should eat more aphrodisiac food these few days to nourish yourself. Work harder.”

Shen Yan’s eyes widened while Lu Shan blushed.

“Xixi, what are you talking about? Are you trying to anger me to death?” Shen Yan was so angry that he pointed at Shen Xi and trembled.

Lu Shan was both angry and embarrassed. She looked at Shen Xi and gritted her teeth.

“Shen Xi, let me tell you, it’s impossible. You better put away your ideas. In short, I don’t agree with you and Guan Lei. Your grandparents won’t agree either.” Shen Yan gave an ultimatum.

“l don’t agree either,” Lu Shan said. “Your maternal grandparents won’t agree either. You’d better give up. From tomorrow onwards, you will follow us to work. Don’t even think about escaping responsibility.”

After Shen Yan and his wife finished speaking, they went upstairs angrily.

Shen Xi lay on the sofa in the living room with a distressed expression. Looking at the stars outside the window, she sighed. It seemed that her future with Guan Lei was bleak.

At this moment, the lights in the villa opposite suddenly lit up. It was a little far away and looked like the stars in the night sky. It was especially beautiful. Shen Xi sighed silently again.

Earlier, Guan Lei had turned on all the lights as soon as he entered and was still planning what to buy.

Xue Li turned to look at Shen Xi’s villa opposite them and asked, “Young Master, as new neighbours, should we go over and say hello? If necessary, I’ll go buy some accompanying gifts. It’ll look better that way.”

“Let’s wait for a while. We’ll get an auntie to send it over tomorrow. If they saw me now, they would probably be furious.” Guan Lei shook his head and smiled bitterly.

Xue Li nodded, not exactly understanding the situation.

“Xue Li, if you were Xi’s parents, would you agree to let her be with me?” Guan Lei suddenly asked.

Xue Li was slightly stunned and said with embarrassment, “How could I have such good fortune to give birth to such a beautiful and outstanding daughter like Miss Xi? Hehehe…

Guan Lei rolled his eyes and said, “I mean if, if…”

Xue Li smiled awkwardly, then thought about it seriously. The more he thought about it, the more conflicted he became.

Seeing Xue Li, Guan Lei became nervous and asked anxiously, ” Would you agree?”

“If it was an ordinary family’s child, then marrying Ms. Shen Xi meant she would be living with you. But Ms. Shen Xi is different. She has the Shen family and the Lu family behind her. Once she marries you, the Guan family, the Shen family, and the Lu family’s assets will inevitably be intertwined.” Xue Li said with a frown.

Guan Lei soon realized what Xue Li was worried about.

“Young Master, in my opinion, with the appetite of those people in the family, wouldn’t they swallow the Shen and Lu families alive?” Xue Li said with a troubled look.

Previously, Xue Li had always agreed to Guan Lei and Shen Xi being together. That was from Guan Lei’s point of view. He only felt that if his Young Master liked Shen Xi and would be happy to be with her, they should be together.

However, it was different now that he was standing in Shen Xi!s position.

Guan Lei nodded silently. It seemed that Shen Yan and his wife not agreeing to Shen Xi being with him had a plausible reason.

The Shen and Lu families were evenly matched, and there weren’t that many complicated family relationships and forces behind them. Therefore, even if the two families were married, neither of them could do anything to the other.

However, once the Guan family got involved, it might break the balance between the two families.

It would be fine if the Shen and Lu families were willing to work together to fight against the Guan family. However, if there was a disagreement, the Guan family could easily sow discord and weaken the strength of the two families.

Even if Guan Lei didn’t think that he would do that, he couldn’t deny that the Shen and Lu families would think differently.

Xue Li sighed and said, ‘Young Master, I’ve thought about it. If I were Ms.

Shen Xi’s parents, I might not only not trust the Guan family, but also you..”
