Chapter 179: 179 An Inexplicable Situation

179 An Inexplicable Situation

A few men in black and several police officers stared blankly at a beautiful girl forcing herself on what looked like a vulnerable youth. The pitiful young man cried out in pain, looking utterly miserable.

The men in black never expected their powerful boss would be subjugated so easily. They immediately averted their eyes and turned to leave, afraid they would draw attention to themselves and Guan Lei’s wrath.

The police were equally dumbfounded, but not for the same reasons. Someone introducing themself as the sister to the captive had called, informing them that his sister was being imprisoned in Observation Room 201 of Zhuo Ying High School’s infirmary. Yet, from the look of things, the girl was forcing herself on the young man and not the other way around.

“Miss, are you forcing yourself on this young man?” An officer piped up.

Shen Xi looked at Guan Lei and then back at the people crowding at the door with complicated expressions on their faces. She immediately got up, flustered and uncertain. “It isn’t what you think,” she hurriedly explained, “We were just exercising.”

The words left her mouth before she had time to register what she said properly. Exercising? That sounded no less damning than forcing herself on Guan Lei. She quickly corrected herself, “No, no! I mean, we were stretching… just now…”

Shen Xi felt that no matter how she tried to explain, it always seemed wrong. Ultimately, she stared at the floor, mumbling, “It was an accident… It was an accident…”

Guan Lei, still lying in bed, watched in amusement as Shen Xi babbled nonsensically, at a complete loss for words. The more she spoke, the darker her cheeks coloured. After a while, he could not suppress the smile or the bark of laughter that shook his prone form.

Neither the men in black nor the officers looked like they believed her, so she tried pushing Guan Lei to the forefront for him to explain the situation. Otherwise, she would never clear her name even if she jumped into the Yellow River.

However, when Shen Xi turned around, what greeted her was Guan Lei’s smug smile. Gnashing her teeth angrily, she said, “Stop smiling like a loon and say something!”

Guan Lei graciously obliged, pushing himself up using the bed for support. His smile had been replaced by embarrassment and a touch of anger at some point as he adjusted his collar. It had slipped in their scuffle earlier.

Shen Xi vibrated with anger, threatening to explode at any time. Anyone reading Guan Lei’s body language would have concluded that she had done something to him!

Clenching her fists tightly, Shen Xi resisted the urge to rush up and give Guan Lei a good beating.

Just as Shen Xi was about to blow her top, Guan Lei addressed the police seriously, “Officer, I’m afraid this is a misunderstanding. My fellow patient was just fooling around. She wanted to teach me how to do yoga, but I didn’t want to, so she took it as a challenge and tried to help me.”

Shen Xi facepalmed. Guan Lei did not need to say the last bit out loud; it was more than he needed to say.

The police officers listened with raised brows. It seemed everything had been consensual. Since no crime had been committed, they had nothing to do. Whoever made that report must have been messing with them.

“Miss, we received a call from your brother saying you were being imprisoned here? Is it true?” The officer attempted to clarify the situation as part of their code of practice.

Shen Xi was confused. Her brother? Could it have been Lu Lin? Didn’t Lu Lin say he would be overseas filming? Had he returned last night? Even if he did, how could he have known she was staying in one of the school’s observation rooms?

Had Jiang Xue or Su Ni said anything? Apart from a few people she knew in her dormitory, no one should have learnt she would be staying in one of the school’s observation rooms.

“Officer, I’m not a prisoner here. We are patients under observation by the school’s doctors. This is one of the school’s VIP observation rooms for two. Perhaps whoever made the report misunderstood the situation,” Shen Xi explained.

Since the alleged prisoner said it was a misunderstanding, there was nothing for the police to do but bid their farewells and apologise for the inconvenience caused.

Not until the police departed did Shen Xi exhale the breath she had unconsciously held. Today had been a complete loss of face for her.

Guan Lei crept closer to Shen Xi and chuckled, “Looks like you’ll need to take responsibility this time. After all, so many people saw you sitting on me.”

The glare Shen Xi shot Guan Lei would have cowed lesser men, but he was not one. Shen Xi did not forget Guan Lei’s provocative jibe and used it as an excuse to give him a good beating.

“Did you see those black-clothed men who rushed in earlier?” Shen Xi suddenly asked.

Guan Lei had turtled up with his hands over his bruised face, yet his eyes still twinkled with mirth, “I saw them. Maybe they are plainclothes policemen?”
