Shen Xi noticed that Guan Lei had suddenly quieted down. The moment she turned around, someone handed a mask to the two of them.

Confused, Shen Xi asked the person who handed her the mask, “What’s the meaning of this?”

The waiter who handed over the mask said with a professional smile, “The next round is the masked ball. These are your masks.”

Shen Xi suddenly understood. She took the mask from the waiter and said politely, “Thank you!”

The waiter smiled and handed the other one to Guan Lei. “Sir, this is yours. Please keep it.”

Guan Lei took the devil’s mask and smiled wickedly. Gu Chen was quite impressive. He gave Shen Xi an angel’s mask but gave him a devil’s mask. What does this mean? Is it a provocation?

Shen Xi looked at Guan Lei’s gloomy expression and instantly laughed out loud. She comforted him, “It’s okay. My angel will influence you.”

Guan Lei smiled happily and pouted. “That’s what you said. You can’t just go and influence others casually.”

Shen Xi pinched Guan Lei’s face and said, “You little grump, you’ve already been angry a few times today. Don’t be angry, okay? Be good. I’ll buy you a lollipop when we go back.”

Guan Lei could not help but laugh when he saw Shen Xi coaxing him like a

child. He nodded. “Alright, I’ll listen to Xi.”

After putting on the mask, Shen Xi said to Guan Lei, “Devil, today, I will carry out justice on behalf of the heavens and represent justice to capture you.”

Guan Lei also put on his mask and begged Shen Xi, “Please spare me, angel. I was captured by you willingly.”

Zhao Yuan, who was wearing her fox mask, shook her head. She was about to have an indigestion from being forced to eat “dog food”.

Gu Xing stood on the stage and said happily, “Today is Gu Chen’s birthday. First of all, thank you for coming. Next, there will be a masked ball. When everyone put on their masks, the lights would be turned off for 20 minutes. In these 20 minutes, our waiters will mess up everyone’s positions, and then everyone can find the right dance partner according to their hearts. As soon as the sound of “ding” rang out, those who didn’t find a dance partner will be punished.

Everyone else, get ready for a dance, transitioning from darkness to light. Since today’s gathering is full of young people, I believe everyone will have a great time.”

After she finished speaking, the lights started to dim gradually. In a short while, it was completely dark. Guan Lei held Shen Xi’s hand and gently squeezed it. Then, the two of them felt that someone had come to their side.

Guan Lei let go of Shen Xi’s hand and followed the waiter blindly. Along the way, he could hear the sound of many people walking past him.

However, before Guan Lei could start looking for someone, his eyes lit up. The person sitting opposite him was Gu Chen.

Seeing Guan Lei come in, Gu Chen put the ball in his hand on his lap and pointed to the seat beside him with a smile. “Young Master Guan, please sit.”

Guan Lei did not stand on ceremony. He sat down casually and went straight to the point. “If you have something to say, say it. I still have to go back and dance with my Xi.”

Gu Chen ignored Guan Lei’s tone and said lightly, “You look a little like your brother, but your temper is far from your brother’s.”

Guan Lei’s face instantly turned gloomy. His cold voice squeezed out from his chest, “Gu, you’d better not mention my brother. Otherwise, I can’t guarantee that you won’t be able to see the sun tomorrow.”

Facing such a threat, Gu Chen was not anxious at all. Instead, he said leisurely, “Don’t you think about Shen Xi who is still outside?”

Guan Lei narrowed his eyes dangerously.” If you dare to touch Shen Xi, you can try! Don’t blame me for not reminding you, Shen Xi doesn’t only have our Guan family protecting her, but also the Shen family and Lu family. Do you think the Gu family can withstand the joint attack of the three aristocratic families of Beijing?”

Gu Chen’s eyes flickered slightly. He hadn’t expected that Shen Xi had such a background – the four prominent families in Beijing: Guan, Gu, Shen, and Lu. If what Guan Lei said was true, then the Gu family would not be able to withstand the joint attack of the other three families.

Gu Chen’s silence made Guan Lei a little proud.” It seems that you still don’t know Xi’s background. Come to think of it, how could an outsider like you compare to someone like me who was acknowledged by Xi?”

Guan Lei leaned back in his chair with a satisfied expression and continued to provoke him. “Some people, don’t think that calling her affectionately as ‘Xi’ means they are really close to her. It’s just that my Xi is beautiful and kind-hearted, and she finds it difficult to refuse. As a person, one should have some self-awareness..
