Shi Xi got into the car and settled in. Di Shi walked in the passenger seat, while Shi San drove. The car slowly drove towards Xi Yuan.

"Mi Rou, why are you here to pick me up too?" Shi Xi asked, resting her chin on her hands.

Mi Rou frowned, rubbing her head as if she had a headache.

"What...what's in your bag?"

"Soup!"

"You made the soup yourself?"

Shi Xi rolled her eyes. "Nonsense, do you think someone else would make soup for Master Chen?"

"Did you ever leave the kitchen when you were making soup?"

"Why are you asking so many questions today?" Shi Xi said irritably, clutching her schoolbag.

Mi Rou, undeterred, asked again, "Did you leave the kitchen while the soup was being made?"

Shi Xi put away her smile and said, "I left for a while."

She didn't know why Mi Rou had become so serious. Did it really matter whether she left the kitchen or not?

Mi Rou didn't say anything more.

Shi Xi shrugged indifferently.

Bored on the bus ride, Shi Xi started fiddling with her phone, but for some reason, she felt restless.

Upon arriving at Xiyuan, Shi Xi had just entered the living room when she saw Di Jiu, Di Wen, Di Er, Di Lu, and Di Qi, all five of them seemingly discussing something important.

With only Di Xing and Di Wu missing, the leaders of the secret guards in the country will be all present.

Shi Xi greeted everyone with a smile, "Hi! You're all here! What happened?"

Di Shi looked down at Mi Rou and asked in a low voice, "Do you know something?"

Mi Rou whispered, "When your brother and Xiao Xi are at odds later, whose side will you take?"

"Xiao Xi".

Xiao Xi is outnumbered and outmatched; if he doesn't help her, who will he help?

Di Jiu stammered, "Miss Shi...you...you're back. How...how did you do on your exam?"

Shi Xi stared blankly at the stuttering man, "Di Jiu, it's been half a day and you've become a stutterer!"

"No, I..."

"So you've all gathered here because of me. Tell me, what happened?"

Shi Xi crossed her arms and waited for everyone to speak.

Mi Rou and Shisan stood behind Shi Xi, protecting her.

Even with her erratic thought process, Shi Xi could sense the unusual atmosphere.

Di'er stepped forward to speak on everyone's behalf. Anyway, anyone could speak as long as Di Jiu didn't stammer like that.

"Silly girl, do you personally brew all the soup that Master drinks every day?"

Shi.StupidGirl.Xi: "Don't call me stupid girl. Of course, it's the soup I made for Xiao Xiao. I know that in your mind, I am just a lazy and gluttonous stupid girl, but I want to do something for Xiao Xiao and make him soup. I don't have to fake it."

"How does the master treat you?" Di Lu coldly scrutinized Shi Xi, as if she were a prisoner.

"So you want to ask one by one! How has Master Chen treated me? Of course, very, very well. Di Lu, are you satisfied with this answer?"

Shi Xi was angered by Di Lu, and she didn't even know what had happened. He was interrogating her like a criminal, as if she had no temper.

Di Lu did not answer Shi Xi's question, but continued, "I have served my master for thirteen years. When my master was eighteen, I was plotted against by the Di family and lost half my life."

That was the most serious injury he had ever sustained, but he reappeared before everyone, full of energy, just two weeks later. This time, our master only broke three ribs, and after two weeks, his injuries haven't improved. Don't you find that strange?"

She sneered, "You suspect that I'm the one secretly sabotaging things to prevent Master Chen from recovering!"
