Chapter 860 - 860: A Four-Person Meeting
“That’s right. Previously, Young Master Guan had said that he was chasing Miss Shen!”
“That’s not right! Old Master Guan had just made it clear that Young Master
Guan and Su Rui might get married. After all, Master Guan was the head of the Guan family. I think Shen Xi and Guan Lei will be forced to separate by their families in the end.’
“1 don’t trunk so. Young Master Guan IS not someone the Old Master Guan can suppress. Young Master Guan has restrained himself in the past four years. Before he revealed his face, even the heavens couldn’t control him.”
“This is going to be fun. Come on, let’s bet on who Young Master Guan will end up with.”
Everyone’s words reached Su Rui’s ears.
When Su Rui saw Shen Xi, she was already in a bad mood.
Especially when she saw Shen Xi and Guan Lei appearing at her party together and even suppressing her.
Now that everyone was talking, she felt even more frustrated.
If Shen Xi weren’t here today, the hottest topic today would definitely be her and Guan Lei’s match made in heaven. It had now become a melodramatic scene of two women fighting over a man.
Su Rui clenched her fists slightly. Then, under everyone’s gaze, she walked toward Guan Lei with a decent smile.
When she approached Shen Xi and Guan Lei, Su Rui first glanced at Shen Xi perfunctorily, then greeted her lightly, “Miss Shen.”
Without waiting for Shen Xi’s reaction, she turned to Guan Lei and said with a smile, ‘Lei, Grandpa Guan asked me to bring you to see my grandpa.”
Su Rui’s attitude made the atmosphere between the three of them a little awkward. Everyone looked at the three of them casually. It was obvious that they wanted to see the drama of the three of them.
They especially wanted to see how Shen Xi would react. After all, Su Rui had snatched Guan Lei away in front of her.
However, before Shen Xi could speak, a clear voice interrupted, “That’s right.
The Guan family and the Su family have a close relationship. Young Master
Guan has to hurry up and meet the elders with Miss Su.”
Guan Lei didn’t even need to turn around to know who made that annoying voice.
The moment Gu Chen appeared, everyone’s eyes lit up even more.
“Gu Chen, what are you doing here?” Guan Lei turned around and asked in a neutral tone.
“I’m naturally here to attend the birthday banquet. Young Master Guan wasn’t the host, wasn’t it a little inappropriate to ask this? Or could it be that Young Master Guan and the Su family’s young miss are getting married, so you’ve defined yourself as the Su family’s future son-in-law? Part of the Su family now?” Gu Chen said.
From the beginning, Gu Chen had a faint smile on his face. However, even such a faint smile on his beautiful face seemed to be charming.
Guan Lei just looked at Gu Chen coldly and said with a fake smile, “My grandpa and Grandpa Su are good brothers. It’s not too much for me to call him uncle. I’ll help Grandpa Su greet some unknown people. I don’t think Grandpa Su will blame me.”
Guan Lei turned to Su Rui and asked, “Right? Su Rui?”
Guan Lei’s words made Su Rui’s expression change, and she felt a little embarrassed. Guan Lei’s words were clearly trying to distance himself from the marriage talks of the two families. He was also trying to make the relationship between the two of them seem like that of siblings in front of everyone.
Su Rui did not answer directly. She just smiled and said, “Lei is right. Our families have always been close. As for what would happen in the future, we can’t break the friendship between the two families.”
“Since Master Gu is here, he’s our distinguished guest.” Su Rui said to Gu Chen while maintaining a decent face. “We naturally have to treat him well.” Gu Chen raised his eyes slightly and looked at Guan Lei. Then, his gaze fell on Shen Xi, who was quiet at the side.
Shen Xi was exceptionally charming and good-looking today. This Shen Xi should belong to him, not Guan Lei.
“Lei, let’s go. I’ll take you in,” Su Rui said to Guan Lei.
As she spoke, Su Rui reached out to pull Guan Lei. However, she did not expect Guan Lei to dodge directly, so Su Rui’s hand stopped in mid-air for a while, which was particularly abrupt and awkward.
“I’ll go by myself. Isn’t it always like this?” Guan Lei laughed. “Moreover….”
