Di Chenxiao's panicked heart calmed down. "Di Wu won't tell anyone, and no one else will know."

Shi Xi pulled the blanket down a little with her small hands, revealing two dark eyes, and asked, "Really?"

"Really! Di Wu isn't a big mouth, he won't talk nonsense." If he dares to talk nonsense, he can make sure Di Wu never speaks again.

As Di Wu was walking back, he suddenly felt a chill run down his spine and muttered to himself, "Who's cursing me in their mind?"

Shi Xi nodded obediently, as long as no one else knew.

Di Chenxiao got out of bed again, took out a tube of ointment from the medicine box, and applied it to Shi Xi's lips. "This is medicine to reduce swelling, inflammation, and scars. After a good night's sleep, the wound on your lips will be almost healed."

Shi Xi's face flushed red again, a result of her high-altitude lifestyle.

**

The next day.

The first thing Shi Xi did when she woke up was to run to the bathroom to check her lips, which had returned to normal after being red and swollen.

After washing up, she had nothing to do.

The New Year's Day holiday is three days long, but it's not over yet. Shi Xicai will start school tomorrow.

She no longer needs to undergo training, cough cough, she's afraid she'll hurt someone again!

Shi Xi followed Di Chenxiao downstairs for breakfast and saw Di Jiu standing at the bottom of the stairs with his head down, like a child who had made a mistake.

Shi Xi stopped in front of the Emperor's Wine and asked, "What are you doing standing here so early in the morning? Have you had breakfast?"

Di Jiu kept her head down. "Yesterday, I failed to protect my master. Because of my mistake, my master almost lost his innocence. Please punish me, Miss Shi."

Di Chenxiao: "..."

Shi Xi's lips twitched slightly. "You, is it because of what happened yesterday? It's alright. Anyway, Xiao Xiao's innocence hasn't been ruined. It's alright, it's alright."

When she mentioned the word "innocence," Shi Xi deliberately emphasized it.

"Judging from your appearance, you probably haven't had breakfast either. Why don't you eat with us?"

Shi Xi patted Di Jiu on the shoulder, inviting him to have dinner with her.

As Di Chenxiao passed by Dijiu, he patted him on the shoulder and said, "I don't need you to protect my innocence."

Emperor Wine: "Yes."

After dinner, Shi Xi, Mi Rou, and Shisan returned to the Shi family home, intending to find out what really happened in Xiao Meng's death.

After returning to the Shi family home, Shi Hao stayed at home.

Shi Xi asked Uncle Song in confusion, "I told my older brother this morning that I would come back, and he said he would wait for me at home. Is my older brother not home?"

Uncle Song: "Miss, something suddenly happened at the company. The eldest young master and the master went to deal with it, and the second young master also went out on business."

"oh."

When Shi Yue returned from her walk with Grandpa Shi, she saw Shi Xi. "Miss Shi, why aren't you with your Master Chen? What brings you back?"

Shi Xi said impatiently, "Do I need to report to an outsider like you before I go back to my home?"

Grandpa Shi's tone towards Shi Xi became much gentler, "Are you still angry about what happened yesterday?"

"No, Grandpa has already decided to protect her, how could I dare to say anything?"

"Look at your angry tone, aren't you angry? Don't blame your grandfather, we only have two granddaughters, you and Shiyue, and I love you both. We're all family, blood is thicker than water, we can't let an outsider handle this little thing."

“Grandpa, Chen Ye isn’t an outsider. He’s my boyfriend, and we’ll be family in the future,” Shi Xi retorted.

Grandpa Shi: "Xiao Xi, married people can get divorced, and boyfriends and girlfriends can break up, but Xiao Yue will always be your family."
