"Wait," Tao Yuxuan said as she was about to leave the banquet hall, "I haven't seen the prince yet."
Shi Xi: ?
Tao Yuxuan released the wheelchair handle and said to Xie Yunzhou, "You take Xixi back, I'll stay a little longer."
"This is so much fun." Shi Xi gave a fake sisterly smile.
"I will definitely win the prince's heart," Tao Yuxuan cheered herself on.
Shi Xi thought to herself, "You must be dreaming."
The prince will only belong to Ning Yu.
Xie Yunzhou pushed Shi Xi out and asked, "Shall I take you back to rest?"
Having eaten and drunk my fill and enjoyed the excitement, it's definitely time to rest.
Shi Xi saw the bright moon outside and said, "Push me to the deck, I want to get some fresh air."
It'll also help with digestion.
I ate a bit too much.
Xie Yunzhou responded, "Okay."
The sea is black at night, stretching as far as the eye can see.
The bright moon hangs high in the sky, reflecting scattered light on the sea surface, looking as if it were a veil woven by mermaids.
"It's so beautiful!" Shi Xi hopped up on one leg, holding onto the railing.
"Be careful," Xie Yunzhou said, supporting her.
"It's okay, the doctor said as long as I don't put weight on my left foot." Shi Xi leaned on the railing and gazed into the distance.
It's a bit cold.
The sea breeze at night is colder than during the day.
Shi Xi looked at Xie Yunzhou's coat and thought to herself that the villainous boss definitely didn't like her.
Otherwise, he should gentlemanly drape his coat over her shoulders now.
"The wind is too strong," Xie Yunzhou noticed Shi Xi shrugged.
Shi Xi: "It's okay, let's watch for a little while longer."
Seeing that Shi Xi still wanted to stay, Xie Yunzhou said, "I'll go get you a coat."
“…Okay.” Shi Xi’s gaze was complicated.
Watching Xie Yunzhou leave, Shi Xi asked the system, "System, don't you think there's something off about Xie Yunzhou?"
System: [I don't think so.]
Shi Xi watched the rolling waves, lost in thought, "Maybe that's just his personality."
The system interrupted, saying, "[Don't talk about Xie Yunzhou anymore, you should go back now, we're about to reach a plot point!]"
Shi Xi asked in confusion, "Plot points?"
System: [Yes, Prince Ryan is about to be assassinated.]
Shi Xi's almond-shaped eyes widened.
How could she forget about that!
Shi Xi quickly jumped back into her electric wheelchair, ready to go back.
Just as she was about to go upstairs, the blond man rushed over from the side.
It crashed directly into her wheelchair.
Shi Xi struggled to control the wheelchair and prevented herself from tipping over.
"Sorry," Ryan quickly apologized, then tried to continue running away.
However, his clothes got caught on Shi Xi's wheelchair.
Shi Xi: ?!
No!
Run! Don't drag me down with you to your death!
Just as Shi Xi was about to dodge, she saw that the assassin had already caught up with her.
The assassin, wearing night-vision goggles, sneered when he saw Ryan, cocked his gun, and pointed it at Ryan.
With Ryan in a wheelchair, Shi Xi always felt that the killer was aiming at her.
"Brother, I'm just an innocent bystander!" Shi Xi quickly interjected.
No matter how skilled she is in martial arts, at this moment she is just a pitiful little thing sitting in a wheelchair!
The assassin saw Shi Xi, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Get out of the way!"
Shi Xi: "...To be honest, I really wanted to move aside, but his clothes were blocking the wheels of my wheelchair."
Suspecting a trap, the assassin approached step by step, gun in hand.
He didn't want to hurt Shi Xi.
Ryan hurriedly started taking off his pants.
His pants got caught on the wheel of Shi Xi's wheelchair.
Faced with the choice between running naked and risking his life, Ryan chose to live.
As the assassin drew closer, Shi Xi suddenly stood up, grabbed the assassin's gun-wielding hand, and twisted it upwards.
