After saying that, Zhao Yuan rushed toward Xue Li angrily, ignoring the ringing bell.

Shen Xi saw Zhao Yuan off and shook her head helplessly.

Guan Lei said to Shen Xi who was by his side, “Xi, can I ask the teacher to arrange for us to be deskmates? You see, my legs are inconvenient. With you by my side, I can rely on you.”

Shen Xi did not miss the sly look in Guan Lei’s eyes, but still replied good-naturedly, “Okay! I’ll tell the teacher.”

Beside them, Su Ni immediately volunteered, “Then Shen Xi, I’ll switch with you. The form teacher wouldn’t say anything if I take the initiative to change seats.”

After saying that, Su Ni immediately packed her things up. Shen Xi also took her things and sat beside Guan Lei.

Guan Lei looked smilingly at Shen Xi sitting next to him. It had only been a few days, but it seemed like forever since he last saw Shen Xi. He could not suppress the joy in his heart.

However, Shen Xi did not seem to be in a good mood. Guan Lei asked in confusion, “Xi, what’s wrong? Why do I feel like you’re not happy?

Shen Xi turned to look at Guan Lei, seeing the green and purple bruises on his face. “I’m not happy. You’ve only been out for a few days and you’ve already become like this. How can I be happy? Can’t you take better care of yourself?”

Although Shen Xi was a little unhappy, Guan Lei was quite happy. Shen Xi cared and worried about him.

Guan Lei pulled Shen Xi’s sleeve and said in a coquettish tone, “Alright, it’s my fault. I didn’t protect Xi’s boy. I’ll accept my punishment. You can punish me with a kiss. How about that?”

Shen Xi burst out laughing. She then glanced sideways at Guan Lei and whispered, “You’re not serious again. Speak properly.”

When Guan Lei saw Shen Xi’s smiling face, he was relieved. He then swore with his fingers up, “I swear that I will protect myself well in the future and not let myself get hurt. I will not let Xi worry. If I break this oath, I will never be able to grow hair again.”

Shen Xi laughed softly. “Why? Are you planning to turn bald and become a monk?”

Guan Lei immediately shook his head. “That won’t do. I’m going to marry Xi. I can’t become a monk.”

Shen Xi was slightly taken aback. Guan Lei had thoughts of marrying her?

The image of herself being bullied by those people appeared in Shen Xi’s mind again, and she instantly felt inferior.

In the past, she used words to ridicule Jiang Xue as someone who was being played with by others. When she called Jiang Xue dirty, she was humiliating Jiang Xue. However, when she thought about it further, hadn’t she been bullied by that person too? Wasn’t it considered as being played by others? Wasn’t she dirty too?

If Guan Lei knew about these things, he would definitely despise her. Right?

Shen Xi hurriedly pulled her sleeve out of Guan Lei’s hands. She avoided Guan Lei’s gaze, took out a book and pretended to read.

Shen Xi was already happier, but why did her mood change suddenly? Guan Lei was deeply puzzled.

Moreover, when Shen Xi pulled her sleeve away from his hand just now, Guan Lei had a feeling that Shen Xi did not want him to touch her.

Guan Lei wanted to ask more questions, but the teacher had already come in. Guan Lei could only suppress the doubts in his heart.

Shen Xi did not pay any attention to the lesson as her thoughts drifted.

Shen Xi knew very well that Guan Lei was pursuing her, but she could not make up her mind to be with him. Hence, Shen Xi was hesitating about whether she should be with Guan Lei or not.

Being together, the things from her previous life would always linger at the back of Shen Xi’s mind. She was afraid that one day, she would mumble it out in her dreams and Guan Lei would despise her if he found out. However, if she couldn’t get over her internal hurdles and decided not to be with Guan Lei, she felt that she should tell Guan Lei frankly and not keep him hanging.

Shen Xi sighed in annoyance, her shoulders drooping weakly, her heart filled with frustration.

Beside her, Guan Lei was not paying attention to the lesson too. His gaze kept glancing at Shen Xi, his mind uneasy following the expressions on Shen Xi’s face.

After the first period ended, Zhao Yuan sneaked back to cla.s.s. When she saw that her deskmate had changed, she cried for a while.

Guan Lei quickly pulled Shen Xi, who was about to leave, using his body as a support to stand up. “Xi, if you have any thoughts, you can tell me.”

For some reason, Guan Lei felt that there was something wrong with Shen Xi’s current att.i.tude. He had a feeling that Shen Xi was considering whether to give up on him.

Before Shen Xi could say anything, Li Jin, who had just entered, rushed to Guan Lei’s side with tears on her face. She hugged Guan Lei and cried, “Brother Lei, you’re finally back. I’ve been so worried about you these past two days. Fortunately, you returned safely..”
