Chapter 482: Bargaining
Guan Lei’s slender fingers slightly bent as he interlocked his fingers with Shen Xi’s. He kissed Chen Xi’s bracelet and said, "Alright, I’ve imprinted my exclusive mark on you. You’re mine from now on. We belong to each other."
Shen Xi’s eyes curved into crescents as she smiled. "You said it. You can’t go back to your words. If you dare to abandon me in the future, I won’t see you again."
Guan Lei held Shen Xi in his arms, but his expression was slightly bitter. He always thought his happiness had been stolen from someone else, and his heart was filled with unease. It was not only because he deliberately obstructed the meeting between Shen Xi and Meng Yu but also because he kept Shen Xi in the Gu family for his grandfather’s reputation.
"By the way, let’s go to the market together later. I think my parents should be here by dinnertime. Let’s have a hot pot together tonight. It’s more convenient this way. We don’t know how to cook anything. We can eat it after it’s heated. It saves trouble." Shen Xi said as she played with Guan Lei’s fingers.
Guan Lei was slightly stunned. He wondered if Shen Yan would kill him if he saw him at Shen Xi’s house. However, Guan Lei was willing to give it his all for his wife. At most, he would be scolded.
"Alright." Guan Lei said in a clear voice, with a tragic feeling of a hero breaking his wrist.
In amusement, Shen Xi looked at Guan Lei and laughed, "Why do you look so serious as if you’re going to the battlefield? It’s not like you haven’t seen my parents before."
Guan Lei sighed slightly. If there were something in his heart, he would naturally be afraid.
