Chapter 409: Portrait
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Perhaps it was because she saw Ye Min, but Shen Xi thought of her benefactor in her previous life. She wondered if she should put up a missing person notice.
However, it seemed a little too abrupt to spread the portrait of her benefactor everywhere. It felt like she was repaying kindness with ingratitude.
But it wasn’t impossible!
Didn’t she know how to draw? She could draw it down and find a private detective to look for it. Shen Xi picked up the sketch pen and started drawing quickly.
Guan Lei looked at Shen Xi, who was sitting opposite him. He was suddenly curious as to why Shen Xi, who was just doing the questions, had suddenly started drawing. He looked at the paper slightly. It seemed like she was drawing a portrait.
Guan Lei immediately straightened his body. Xi was drawing now, so she must be drawing him. He had to be in the most handsome position so that Xi would think he was extremely handsome when she saw him in the future.
Shen Xi didn’t notice Guan Lei’s actions. She only tried her best to recall the person’s appearance in her mind.
Seeing Shen Xi keep her head down and not look up, Guan Lei was a little suspicious. Could it be that Xi could draw herself without looking at him?
Thinking about it, Guan Lei smiled happily to himself.
Half an hour later, Shen Xi finally put down her pen.
Guan Lei asked casually, “Xi, what are you drawing?
Shen Xi did not hide anything from Guan Lei and directly replied, “I drew the person I saw in the mall before.”
Guan Lei’s smile was still on his face, but he was frozen by Shen Xi’s words.
Guan Lei was a little unwilling to believe it. Perhaps he had heard wrongly. He asked, “Can I take a look?”
Shen Xi nodded and passed the painting to Guan Lei.
Guan Lei’s breathing quickened slightly when he saw the portrait that bore an extremely high resemblance to Meng Yu. The uneasiness in his heart made it difficult for him to breathe.
Guan Lei knew that Meng Yu was different to Shen Xi. Because of Meng Yu, he saw Shen Xi lose her composure for the first time. And because of Meng Yu, he was treated impatiently by Shen Xi for the first time.
Furthermore, he had lied to Shen Xi about this matter. He clearly knew that Shen Xi was anxiously looking for Meng Yu, but not only did he hide Meng Yu’s existence, he even deleted Meng Yu’s whereabouts.
Guan Lei felt a little guilty. At the same time, he asked uneasily, “This person is… someone important to you, Xi?”
Initially, Guan Lei wanted to ask if Xi liked Meng Yu, but in the end, Guan Lei was unwilling to say the word “like” because he was afraid that Shen Xi would really answer yes.
Perhaps the more emotionally invested he was, the easier it was for him to worry about gains and losses.
In the past, Guan Lei could stop Shen Xi from meeting Meng Yu, but now,
Guan Lei actually felt that he was a little despicable. He clearly knew that Shen Xi liked Meng Yu, but he still made it impossible for Shen Xi to find him and then took advantage of the situation.
He was even more afraid that if Shen Xi found out, she would be angry and leave him.
Shen Xi didn’t know what Guan Lei was thinking. She just nodded honestly and said, “Yes, yes, it’s very important.”
Other than this, Shen Xi did not know what else to say. After all, that person had not saved her in this life. How could she say that he was her savior?
Instead of explaining herself like this, she might as well not say it, lest Guan Lei thought she was crazy.
However, Guan Lei obviously did not understand. Shen Xi’s answer was undoubtedly a heavy blow to him, causing him to sit on the chair in a daze.
Meng Yu was the most important person to Shen Xi, and Guan Lei was the second best choice Shen Xi had because she couldn’t find Meng Yu. Was that what she meant?
Guan Lei’s lips curled up into a bitter smile. So it was not so good to snatch someone else’s lover. She did not belong to him after all.
Shen Xi didn’t know what was wrong with Guan Lei. He was fine just now, but why was his face ashen now? ‘Guan Lei, what’s wrong? Why are you so pale? Are you feeling unwell?”
Guan Lei’s face turned slightly pale as he shook his head gently. Even though he knew that he had played a trick, Guan Lei still couldn’t bear to let go of Shen Xi.
Shen Xi stood up and went to Guan Lei’s side. She said with concern, “Did you not eat lunch? You look like you have low blood sugar.”
Guan Lei did not know how to explain his current appearance. He could only bite the bullet and say, “Yeah, I forgot to eat when I went back just now.”
Shen Xi was a little angry. “I haven’t eaten with you for a day, and you’re not eating properly. You keep saying that I don’t eat properly. Look at yourself. Wait here, I’ll get you something to eat.”
Shen Xi turned around and was about to leave when Guan Lei felt anxious.. He pulled Shen Xi’s hand and asked, “Xi, if I lied to you, will you forgive me? Will
you leave me?
