“Why are you staring at me? Whatever the girl says, that’s what you guys should do!” Guan Ba said irritably.

The four of them quickly nodded and scrambled to say, “Yes, yes, it was Huang

Li who paid for the prostitutes.”

Huang Li wanted to scold them badly, but her throat was too sore for it. In the past, she was the one who hit others, and it was the kind ot gentle beating tor flirting. She never expected that this time, she was almost beaten to death.

Huang Min took her spoils of war and turned to leave. Guan Ba and Guan Jiu followed Huang Min.

Xue Li, who was at the door, finally breathed a sigh of relief, then quickly opened the door. At this time, Shen Xi and Guan Lei were no longer flirting with each other.

“When Huang Min took her mother back from Shen Xi’s hands, she felt that the world had become peaceful again. She hugged her dazed mother tightly for a while before shyly saying to Shen Xi and Guan Lei, ‘I’m sorry I lost control of my emotions earlier. Thank you both for your help today.”‘

“I’ve booked a hotel room for you guys. Have the housekeeper tidy it up first. Tomorrow, my cousin will come back, and I will ask him to check on your mother. He is a psychiatrist,” said Shen Xi.

“Thank you!” Huang Min said while nodding.

Just as the few people had left the room and walked a few steps away, the anti-pornography police rushed over and kicked open that very room.

Huang Min immediately pulled up the hat behind Shen Xi and covered her face with it.

Feeling Shen Xi’s puzzled gaze, Huang Min instantly explained, “I also informed the reporters. Although Huang Li is still a high school sophomore, she is also a child star. This is the gift I gave her. I don’t want the reporters to take pictures of you and cause trouble for you later.”

Upon hearing this, Guan Lei opened his coat and quickly covered Shen Xi’s head within it, protecting her from view.

Shen Xi felt her vision darken, as a gentle scent of bamboo fragrance wafted into her nose. Then, she heard Guan Lei’s concerned words, “Xi, hide inside. I’ll protect you.”

The people around them burst into laughter right away, making Shen Xi’s cheeks flush with shyness. Luckily, no one could see her now. Otherwise, she would be extremely embarrassed.

Huang Min also smiled. She then draped her coat over her mother’s face and pulled up her hoodie to cover her own face.

Sure enough, a group of reporters filed out of the elevator and rushed straight to the suite where Huang Li was.

Huang Min’s lips curled into a cold smile. This time, she wanted to completely ruin Huang Li’s reputation.

After Huang Min settled her mother down, Shen Xi went back with Guan Lei.

“Your leg hasn’t recovered yet, and you’ve walked so much today. Does it hurt?” Shen Xi asked.

Guan Lei pursed his lips and shook his head. “It doesn’t hurt. Let me take you back to your dorm first.”

Shen Xi quickly refused and said, “How can that work? I’ll take you back. You’ll need to rest your feet as much as possible and walk less.”

“Xi, I’m already much better now. Let me walk you home, okay? I want to spend more time with you.” Guan Lei pleaded in a coquettish tone.

Xue Li, who was standing beside them, watched Guan Ba and Guan Jiu snickering and coughed a couple of times as a hint, hoping that his young master would maintain his image in front of his subordinates.

However, Guan Lei did not care about his image at all. He held Shen Xi’s hand and continued pitifully, “It’s already so late. I’m worried about you going back alone. Besides, I still have the three of them to accompany me back later.”

Xue Li swiftly stated his attitude, “Yes, Ms. Shen Xi. Our Little… Brother Lei, we will escort him back later. If not, I’ll just carry him back.”

Afraid that Shen Xi wouldn’t believe him, Xue Li rolled up his sleeves, showing off his well-developed muscles and said, “I’m very strong. I can carry Brother Lei on my back and run 10 laps around the field without any problem!”

Guan Ba couldn’t help laughing. “Brother Li, if you say it like that, it will make it seem like… our Brother Lei is very weak, so you better not say anything.”

Guan Lei wanted to snuff out these three lightbulbs. They were way too talkative, which made him very dissatisfied.

Receiving Guan Lei’s dangerous gaze, the three of them shut up reluctantly. After all, who would want to risk their life?

Shen Xi looked at Xue Li and the other two before compromising, “Alright, let’s go then.”

Guan Lei nodded and walked alongside Shen Xi towards the girls’ dormitory. He also didn’t forget to gesture with his right hand behind his back, telling Xue Li and the others to stay far away..
