Guan Lei looked like the cat that got the canary. He lay on his side, facing Shen Xi with a gentle yet predatory smile.
The guards under his employ had reported that Zheng Huai entered with Shen Xi.
When Shen Xi faced trouble from the Liu family, Guan Lei discovered it was Zheng Huai helping her from the shadows.
Regardless of Zheng Huai's motive, be it an opportunity to study his illness or out of feelings for Shen Xi, Guan Lei vowed he would not allow him to do as he wished, more so if it was the latter.
Although he had not officially brought Shen Xi under his wing, he would not allow any other man to lay a finger on her. Not Xiang Cheng, Lu Lin or even Zheng Huai, who was hiding under the bed eavesdropping.
His mood took a nosedive. Who would have thought Shen Xi would be so good at attracting attention to herself? Three men, and all three were not good people in his eyes.
