Chapter 155: Liu Family Members
The next morning as soon as class was over, Guan Lei handed Shen Xi the candy that Chef Wang had sent over. "Take this. Let’s have lunch together later."
The surrounding students cast gossipy glances at them.
Being teenagers, Guan Lei’s actions easily mislead people to think that there was something fishy going on between them. Jiang Xue immediately took a photo of their interaction and sent it to Liu Cheng.
Liu Cheng was furious after looking at the sent photo. How dare Shen Xi be lovey lovey with Guan Lei after humiliating her? She had no other option but to take a leave of absence and hide at home. She was afraid that she would be mocked when she came back to class. Thus, Liu Cheng submerged her head into the toilet bowl to make her entire body reek of the smell of excrement.
Unlike the furious Liu Cheng, Shen Xi and Guan Lei got along very well.
"My family specially prepared this lunch for you. It’s a very balanced meal and is very yummy. Try It." Guan Lei opened the lunch box and pushed it in front of Shen Xi.
Shen Xi thought of the proverb "The mouth that eats the food of others is softened; the hand that takes the possessions of others is shortened." Therefore, Shen Xi wanted to understand Guan Lei’s intention. She asked, "Why are you treating me so well?"
Guan Lei was stunned by Shen Xi’s question. He was only doing so because Shen Xi’s family was not well-to-do. He was worried that she would suffer from malnutrition.
However, Guan Lei also knew that this was not something he could tell Shen Xi as it would hurt her self-esteem.
Guan Lei pursed his lips and replied after a while, "This is because I have a favor to ask you."
Shen Xi became serious and asked curiously, "What is it?"
