Gu Chen was well aware that posing such a question could put Shen Xi in a tough spot, but he couldn’t resist asking for his own sake. This action, however, left a thorn in Shen Xi’s heart.

Even if they had been a couple in the past, having a boyfriend who disregarded her emotions like this would still irk her.

Others could ask freely, but in Shen Xi’s heart, Gu Chen, as her boyfriend from the memories she held, was not allowed.

Shen Xi gave Gu Chen a faint smile, causing an inexplicable unease to settle in his heart.

“l don’t want to be with anyone!” Shen Xi said lightly.

Guan Lei inexplicably breathed a sigh of relief.

Shen Xi’s memories were currently in disarray, so Guan Lei understood that she might say things that would sadden him.

Nonetheless, he wasn’t prepared to hear any words from Shen Xi expressing affection for someone else.

Thus, Guan Lei was quite happy with her response, After all, there was no one else in Shen Xi’s heart. Wasn’t that good?

Gu Chen couldn’t fathom what went wrong. Why would Shen Xi respond like this when, logically, her feelings should lean towards him?

Guan Lei looked at Gu Chen, who seemed to be at a loss and said with a smirk, “Master Gu, you still don’t understand Xi. Trying to control someone’s emotions isn’t as simple as altering memories.”

Gu Chen glanced coldly at the amused Guan Lei and finally cast a puzzled look at Shen Xi.

He couldn’t comprehend why Shen Xi would answer this way when he had already manipulated her memories.

Her memories were all fabricated by him. What more did he need to understand?

Gu Chen fell into self-doubt but eventually concluded that being with Shen Xi would provide ample time to understand her.

Shen Xi picked up the bottle and spun it. Unfortunately, the bottle turned toward her, and Zhao Yuan burst into laughter, tears welling up. “Xi, you’re really the queen of setting traps for yourself!”

Shen Xi, with a look of distress, asked, “So now, am I asking myself?”

Zhao Yuan chuckled, “Certainly not! If you spin again and it points to someone, that person becomes your Doss.”

Shen Xi resignedly continued spinning. When the bottle pointed at Guan Lei,

Zhao Yuan exclaimed, “Oh, isn’t this fate, Xi? You’re really good at choosing. You knew Guan Lei would go easy on you.”

After saying this, Zhao Yuan took a glance at Gu Chen and quickly averted her eyes.

As Shen Xi’s friend, she naturally had her future in mind.

Although she was a bit fearful of Gu Chen, she was willing to go out on a limb for the sake of her friend’s future.

Guan Lei grinned at Shen Xi. “Xi, do you want truth or dare?”

“Truth!” Shen Xi immediately replied.

Knowing Guan Lei’s character, if she chose dare, things might escalate, and she didn’t want to risk whatever crazy idea Guan Lei might have.

“Oh, Xi, you disappoint me. I was hoping you’d choose dare. Then, I could hug you for a full ten minutes,” Guan Lei shamelessly said.

Gu Chen felt displeased, “Young Master Guan’s behavior is truly licentious. Hugging girls in public has become a habit. 1 bet he has hugged quite a few girls!’

Guan Lei coldly snorted, ignoring Gu Chen’s obvious attempt to provoke him.

Instead, he said to Shen Xi, “Truth it is. Xi, think about the fireworks show in

Rong City four years ago. Who did you go with?”

Shen Xi hesitated for a moment. She remembered attending the fireworks show in Rong City, and besides her classmates, she seemed to have spent a long time alone with someone. Could that person be Guan Lei?

Shen Xi apologetically said, “l can’t remember. I only recall going with my classmates.’

At this point, Zhao Yuan excitedly picked up her phone, saying, “Xi, I know the answer to this question. Let me help you remember.”

Scrolling through the photo album on her phone, Zhao Yuan mumbled, “Fortunately, I always transfer photos whenever I get a new phone. Otherwise, you’d be in trouble now. Ah, here it is. Take a look, Xi!”

Filled with curiosity, Shen Xi took the phone from Zhao Yuan. However, upon seeing a picture of her kissing Guan Lei, she froze in place.

Both Gu Chen and Guan Lei saw the photo, and their emotions were in stark contrast..
