Guan Lei opened his eyes, opened the drawer, and placed the necklace inside.

Inside that drawer, there was a hair tie, a lollipop, a bracelet, a cellphone, and now added to them was a necklace.

Guan Lei gazed at these items for a long time until his eyes became sore and red, before finally closing the drawer.

Lying on the bed, Guan Lei stared blankly at the ceiling. In his mind, there was only Shen Xi. Shen Xi who fought, Shen Xi being aloof, Shen Xi being angry, Shen Xi being coquettish, Shen Xi being annoyed, Shen Xi being shy, Shen Xi being alluring…

The night seemed endless as Guan Lei thought of Shen Xi until the sky began to lighten again.

Li Zhe looked at the sky outside and gently kissed Meng Yu’s forehead before getting up.

The happiness of these past few days almost made Li Zhe forget that he still had things to resolve.

The Guan family and the Sun family were both looking for Meng Yu. Even though Li Zhe made Shen Xi lie through some manipulation to give Old Master Guan a reason to protect Meng Yu, he was also well aware that Old Master Guan had violated the agreement before, and it was unlikely that the Old Madam would obediently comply this time.

Moreover, that lunatic Sun Ming had been investigating everywhere recently, and if he stayed here, they would inevitably be discovered.

Thus, Li Zhe decided to leave this place and cut off all signals here, only then could Meng Yu be completely safe.

Li Zhe made breakfast for Meng Yu and quickly left.

Meanwhile, Shen Xi looked at Zheng Huai, who looked scared, and said,

“Brother, seriously? You’re afraid to even ride a helicopter?”

Zheng Huai held Lu Lin tightly and sobbed, “I’m not afraid of riding a helicopter, alright? I’m afraid of riding a helicopter flown by you. Just tell me, how many days did you learn?

Shen Xi counted on her fingers and said, “Less than three days.”

Lu Lin instantly felt Zheng Huai’s grip on him tighten, as if a koala bear clutching onto a tree branch. He angrily disparaged him, “Zheng Huai, are you even a man?

Zheng Huai paid no mind to his criticism and shouted, “Forget about my gender! Didn’t you hear what she just said? Xi had only learned for less than three days and she dares to fly a helicopter! How about you? Would you dare to Lu Lin voiced his discontent, “It’s because Xi wouldn’t let me go. Otherwise, I would love to go up there and show you. It’s not the first time anyway.”

Shen Xi looked at Zheng Huai and said irritably, “Brother, do you really not trust me? Even Gu Chen, an outsider, trusts my skills. He has ridden twice already. You’re my own brother, and yet you can’t even match up to Gu Chen. And Brother Lu has ridden twice as well.”

Zheng Huai gritted his teeth, his eyes becoming sore even though he could not summon any tears. He said to Shen Xi, “Xi, how about you let someone else fly the helicopter? I really can’t do it.”

Shen Xi exchanged a look with Lu Lin. Lu Lin bared his teeth and swiftly broke free of Zheng Huai’s hold, using force to get him onto the helicopter.

Throughout the journey, Zheng Huai dared not open his eyes. When he finally opened them, they were already on an isolated island.

With weak legs, Zheng Huai held onto the handrail and came down with an unsettled mind.

Only when his feet touched the solid ground did Zheng Huai begin to take in deep breaths.

Shen Xi looked at Zheng Huai and said, “Well, we’ve arrived safely. No need to be afraid!”

Zheng Huai took a moment to catch his breath before saying, “Actually, I’m not that afraid.”

Shen Xi stifled a laugh and said, “Of course, you’re quite brave.”

Shen Luan and Lu Fei, who had been lurking in the shadows, spotted Shen Xi and immediately approached her, saying, “Miss, something seems off. Just as Li Zhe left, someone else arrived on the island.”

Shen Xi’s expression turned serious. She had originally planned to secretly bring Zheng Huai to hypnotize Meng Yu, and then take him away. She had not expected someone to arrive before her.

It was likely people sent by the Guan family. Shen Xi’s face grew even more grim.

Meanwhile, Meng Yu, who had just woken up, rubbed his sleepy eyes and looked at the note left by Li Zhe on the bedside table: “Ah Yu, I’m going back to Beijing for a while. Stay here and rest assured, I’ll be back soon.”

Meng Yu thought that Li Zhe must have gone back to Beijing to deal with the situation involving Guan Lei, whom he had accidentally injured.

Meng Yu let out a sigh. In truth, he did not mind the Guan family coming after him. After all, his life was worthless to him, and surrendering himself to the Guan family would be inconsequential. He just could not overcome the fact that Gu Xing was still alive.

But Li Zhe would not allow him to go back and face certain death..
