Xiyuan Living Room

Di Chenxiao gently placed Shi Xi's legs on the sofa, sat down beside her, and his eyes were filled with emotion.

The girl, dressed in a red casual suit, looked down at her knees, where only a small, dark purple mark the size of a fingernail remained.

The two people, one handsome and the other cute; one looking down while the other gazes at the other with doting eyes; there is an atmosphere of peaceful tranquility.

"Gurgle—"

Shi Xi awkwardly touched her little belly. It had been seven o'clock in the evening since she left home at eight in the morning, no wonder it was protesting.

She raised her head, puffed out her cheeks, opened her big, watery eyes, looked at the person sitting next to her, and pointed to her stomach, "It's hungry."

"Heh—" Di Chenxiao looked at the little girl beside him and was amused by her pitiful eyes. "I'll go cook. You can eat some dessert to fill your stomach first."

After saying that, he went to the kitchen. Shi Xi expressed her doubt: "The boss can cook? You must be joking."

Stand up, follow behind him, and watch how he cooks.

The refrigerator is fully stocked with all kinds of ingredients. Every morning, someone buys the ingredients and puts them in the refrigerator. Then, every evening, all the unused ingredients are disposed of, so the ingredients here are always fresh.

Under the bright white light, a slender figure stood in front of the cutting board; her delicate hands skillfully handled the ingredients.

Shi Xi looked at the man in front of her, who was wearing a light gray apron and was carefully washing, chopping, and cooking vegetables.

The man turned around and smiled, saying, "Are you satisfied with what you see? Go outside and sit down, have something to eat, and I'll call you when it's ready. The kitchen is full of cooking fumes, which isn't good for a girl's skin."

"I will do my job well without your supervision."

Shi Xi nodded, turned around and walked out. Anyway, she couldn't cook, so she couldn't be of much help in the kitchen.

Cooking will probably take more than an hour, how about we go for a walk?

Finally, Shi Xijue decided to wander around. Xiyuan Garden wasn't open to outsiders, and this might be her last time entering it. She should take this opportunity to explore it thoroughly.

Forty minutes later, Shi Xi sat on a roadside chair, questioning the meaning of life.

She's lost again!

Unexpectedly, she was terrible with directions in the real world, and now that she's transmigrated into a book, she's brought that same terrible ability with her.

Sigh, back then, she could even get lost in the teaching building, and her roommates had to come and bring her back to the dormitory.

She was so excited about seeing the scenery of Xiyuan Garden that she forgot to bring her phone.

Xiyuan is so big, won't Di Chenxiao and the others get lost here?

It's so quiet, there's not a soul in sight.

Forget it, let's just go back the way we came.

Ten minutes later, Shi Xi sat down on the ground and stopped moving. She couldn't find her way back, and she didn't know where she was. She decided to wait for Xiao Xiao to come find her.

Shi Xi frowned, as if she had just heard a painful groan.

Where are they over there?

Shi Xi held her breath, tilted her head, and pricked up her ears to listen.

The sound seemed to be coming from the left. She listened as she walked, and a few minutes later, she stopped in front of a dark and eerie house.

The sound was the loudest here, and it sounded somewhat familiar, like it belonged to Indra.

Thinking of this, Shi Xi no longer hesitated, pushed open the door and went in, the smell of blood hitting her nose.

The house was dark and damp, with some traps and alarm devices. Shi Xi was initially worried about triggering these traps, but she nimbly dodged them.

After passing through a narrow passageway, we arrived at a place filled with instruments of torture, including whips, the thickest as thick as a baby's arm and the thinnest as thin as a willow branch...

This is a prison cell.

Shi Xi swallowed hard; it seemed she had stumbled upon an incredible place and learned Di Chenxiao's secret.

As she was about to leave, her gaze fell upon the cross inside, where she saw an Indra covered in blood and with a pale face.

She ran over, untied the ropes binding him, and cried out in panic, "Di Shi, Di Shi, wake up! I'll take you out of here. Hold on, please don't die!"

Emperor Shi had just been whipped and was about to rest here when he heard Shi Xi's voice.

"Ashi, is this your lover?"

A man dressed in black, with a sickly complexion, wearing glasses, and possessing a refined demeanor, walked out of the darkness to Shi Xi's side.
