Lu Shan and Shen Yan also looked in Guan Lei’s direction. The husband and wife kept their cool and opened their eyes wide to look for Shen Xi.

Then, Guan Lei used the surveillance video to construct the entire mall in his mind. Soon, he fixed his eyes on a direction and rushed in that direction with his men.

Lu Shan and Shen Yan looked at each other and ordered the others to continue searching. Then, the two of them followed Guan Lei with a few others.

When Guan Lei was about to arrive at the storeroom, he heard a scream from the door.

Guan Lei’s heart skipped a beat and he quickened his pace. When he saw the person leaning against the door to catch his breath, Guan Lei immediately pushed the person away. In the end, he was stunned on the spot.

In the next second, Shen Yan and Lu Shan caught up and pushed Guan Lei in. As a result, the three of them saw the scene of Shen Xi hugging Gu Chen.

Guan Lei stepped forward and pushed Gu Chen away from Shen Xi’s lap. Then, he squatted down and asked worriedly, “Xi, how are you? Are you hurt?” Guan Lei didn’t care why Gu Chen was here, as long as his Xi was fine.

Shen Yan and Lu Shan, who were beside him, also came over. They only felt slightly relieved when they saw that Shen Xi was fine.

“Xi, what happened? Why are you here?” Shen Yan asked. “And…”

Shen Yan looked at Gu Chen, who was lying on the ground, with disdain. “Why was Gu Chen here?”

Only then did Shen Xi remember Gu Chen and quickly said, “Hurry up. Gu Chen was stabbed by a knife just to save me. He’s still having a fever. He has to be sent to the hospital immediately.”

Hearing Shen Xi’s words, Lu Shan was so scared that her soul almost flew out of her body. She hurriedly pulled Shen Xi to confirm again, “What about you? Do you have any injuries?”

Shen Xi shook her head and said, “I’m fine, but Gu Chen is not. If you don’t send him to the hospital for treatment, I’ll have a life on my hands.”

Shen Xi looked apologetically at Gu Chen who was thrown to the ground.

Guan Lei then shouted at the door, “Guan Ba, come in and send Gu Chen to the hospital. Get the best doctor to save him.”

Guan Ba came in and pulled Gu Chen who was lying next to Shen Xi up.

Unexpectedly, even Shen Xi was pulled up. Only then did everyone realize that Gu Chen was holding Shen Xi’s hand tightly.

Facing his parents and Guan Lei staring at their hands, Shen Xi smiled awkwardly. Then, she used her other hand to try to break apart Gu Chen’s fingers with all her strength, but she couldn’t break them apart.

Shen Xi glanced at the three people next to her. She cursed Gu Chen in her heart for being so strong even after he fainted. It was really killing her.

Shen Xi smiled and stretched out her hand in front of Guan Lei. She called out sweetly, “Guan Lei, I can’t break them apart. Help me.”

Guan Lei’s face was quickly dyed with a light smile. However, when he stepped forward and looked at Gu Chen, his expression instantly turned cold.

Guan Lei exerted force and pried Gu Chen’s fingers away one by one.

Lu Shan was also hiding in her husband’s arms in fear, secretly watching her daughters awkward situation.

It was not until Gu Chen’s last two fingers were tightly holding onto Shen Xi that everyone instantly heard a “click”, followed by Gu Chen’s muffled groan.

Lu Shan was shocked. She looked at Shen Yan and whispered, “Broken?”

Shen Yan nodded at Lu Shan. “It should be broken, but from the crisp sound, it should be able to be cured. Don’t worry.”

Shen Xi grabbed Guan Lei and shook her head in disagreement. No matter what, Gu Chen was her saviour. She could not watch Guan Lei continue to touch Gu Chen.

Guan Ba got Guan Lei’s permission and left with Gu Chen.

Shen Xi looked at Shen Yan and his wife and said, “Dad, Mom, you guys go out first. I’ll have a word with Guan Lei.’

Shen Yan looked at Shen Xi disapprovingly and said, “Is there anything you can’t say in front of us?”

Lu Shan was also worried about leaving Shen Xi alone beside Guan Lei. Guan Lei had just broken Gu Chen’s finger in front of them. What if he was rough with Shen Xi?

“Dad, Mom, don’t worry. I’ll be fine.” Shen Xi smiled.

“Uncle, Auntie, don’t worry. I won’t touch Xi even if I break my own hands.” Guan Lei said.

Hearing Guan Lei’s words and Shen Xi’s pleading gaze, Shen Yan and Lu Shan

After the two of them left, Shen Xi looked at Guan Lei and said, “There’s nothing between Gu Chen and me.. Why do you have to break Gu Chen’s finger?”
