A familiar “Your Majesty” exploded in Shen Xi’s heart. This form of address was present in her memories.
She didn’t expect Guan Lei’s voice to be exactly the same as what she remembered.
Such an intimate and flattering voice was sent by Guan Lei. This made Shen Xi a little surprised.
Shen Xi steadied herself and moved her feet away. Then, she retreated to the side and quieted down.
Guan Lei didn’t know why Shen Xi’s mood suddenly changed, so he tactfully ended this shopping trip very quickly.
When Guan Lei sent Shen Xi back, the car was unusually quiet. Neither of them spoke.
However, not long after Shen Xi arrived home, Xue Li was standing in the living room of the Shen family with the sales managers of various jewellery brands.
“Ms. Shen Xi,” Li Xue said with a smile, “my young master said that he still hasn’t bought the jewellery to match the gown. He was concerned that you would be tired from all the walking, so he asked the sales managers of the various brands to serve you personally. They are all styles that have yet to appear on the market.”
Shen Yan and Lu Shan watched from the side. They also looked at Shen Xi with anticipation on their faces. They hoped that Shen Xi would remember the past from Guan Lei’s thoughtfulness.
But in the end, they were still disappointed.
Shen Xi just casually pointed, her expression unperturbed.
“Ms. Shen Xi, I know what you mean,” said Xue Li with a look of understanding.
Then, Xue Li smiled at the sales managers of the jewellery brands and said, “Leave all of these here.’
As soon as Li Xue finished his words, the sales managers’ faces lit up with joy, and they couldn’t suppress it.
Each set of jewellery was worth millions. How could they not be happy if someone bought them all at once?
Shen Xi frowned slightly. Although the money was nothing to the Guan family, she still felt that it was inappropriate.
However, before Shen Xi could speak, those sales managers had already left quickly. They had been in sales for so long, how could they not see that Shen Xi was unwilling to accept these things?
Therefore, the group of people immediately left in a hurry, afraid that Shen Xi would go back on her word.
After Xue Li finished his task, he politely bid farewell to Shen Xi and her family before leaving.
“These are nothing to the Guan family. Xi, don’t feel burdened.” Lu Shan took the jewellery and said. “At most, we will buy something of equal value as a return gift to them later. It’s just that the elders don’t dare to refuse. You can accept these.”
Shen Xi thought that it was fine. When the time came, she would return the favour and not owe them anything.
On the day of the birthday banquet, Guan Lei came to the Shen family dressed in luxurious clothes.
When he saw Shen Xi wearing a retro floral cheongsam, Guan Lei was stunned.
This set of clothes was not outstanding among those clothes, so Shen Xi did not try it on that day. He did not expect that when she wore it now, it would be so charming.
It turned out that there were clothes that would become gorgeous and charming because of their owner.
Shen Xi coughed softly, waking Guan Lei who was intoxicated by her beauty. Guan Lei looked embarrassed.
Shen Xi rarely dressed up, so Guan Lei thought he could be forgiven for losing his composure. After all, such a beautiful woman was standing in front of him. How could he not be moved?
Guan Lei politely opened the backseat door and made a gentlemanly gesture towards Shen Xi.
After Shen Xi sat in the car with a calm expression, Guan Lei sat in from the other side.
Such a beauty was the person he liked, and also the person who liked him. Naturally, he was happy and proud in his heart.
As for Shen Xi’s currently chaotic memories, Guan Lei had completely ignored it. In his heart, he was already certain that Shen Xi could only be with him for the rest of her life.
In the banquet hall, the guests were chatting happily. When a tall figure walked through the door, everyone’s eyes turned to the door.
Facing everyone’s gaze, Su Rui smiled confidently, raised her head, and walked towards the middle of the banquet hall.
She was wearing a tight-fitting pink cheongsam that accentuated her curvaceous figure, causing everyone to start whispering.
“Which family is this young lady from? This is the first time I’ve seen her.
With her temperament, 1 can tell that she’s from an aristocratic family.” “Which other family could it be? It must be the elder young miss of the Su family, Su Rui. She had been overseas all this while but heard that she had returned recently. It must be her..”
