"Shi Xi?" the man in the back seat asked.
Shi Xi looked at the man next to her and said, "Yes, Shi as in Shi Xi, Xi as in Shi Xi."
After she finished speaking, the driver chuckled, thinking to himself, "Who introduces themselves like that?" Remembering his master, the driver quickly put on a serious face and focused on driving.
Shi Xi was drawn to the driver's laughter and didn't see the hint of joy in the man's eyes.
"Emperor Chenxiao"
"Uh, what?"
"My name is Di Chenxiao." The man looked at Shi Xi, his eyes filled with darkness, unfathomable.
Shi Xi opened her eyes wide and stared blankly at Di Chenxiao.
He is Di Chenxiao. In the book, Di Chenxiao is someone whose strength and looks surpass those of the male protagonist. Shi Xi still remembers the description of his appearance in the book: the man's three-dimensional features were as handsome as if carved by a knife, and his whole being exuded a kingly aura that could shake the world.
Di Chenxiao is the head of the Di Group, with connections in both the legitimate and underworld circles. He is known as Master Chen and is 27 years old.
The capital city is the political, cultural, and economic center of China, and the capital of three dynasties.
In a place like this, not just anyone can call themselves "Master," but everyone who sees Di Chenxiao calls him Master Chen. Even behind his back, no one dares to talk about him.
In the usual novels, Di Chenxiao is undoubtedly the male protagonist, but he is a character who doesn't appear very often. Just before his thirtieth birthday, he disbanded all his forces and disappeared.
Some say he was killed by his enemies, some say he committed suicide, and others say he lived a secluded life with his beloved girl.
These are all speculations; no one knows where he actually went.
The book provides very little information about him; it doesn't explain his past, who his parents were, or so on.
The book only says that he returned to the Di family in the capital at the age of fifteen. Everyone said that he was the Di family's illegitimate son, but it was unclear whose child he was.
He spent five years seizing power, brutally murdering most of those who disagreed with him. At the age of twenty, he became the heir to the Di Group.
A workaholic, indifferent to women, with no female creatures within three meters of him.
"..."
Shi Xi's bright, star-like eyes darted around. There were no female creatures within three meters. Was she not female?
Pooh--
What female? She's a girl, okay?
"You're drooling," Di Chenxiao said coldly.
Shi Xi hurriedly wiped the corner of her mouth with the back of her hand; there was no saliva.
Shi Xi looked at Di Chenxiao in confusion. He could actually joke? That's unbelievable!
It's best for her to avoid having any contact with such an important person.
She looked outside; the bustling crowd meant it should be easy to hail a taxi.
"Driver, could you please stop here? I'll get off here."
The driver ignored her and continued driving.
Shi Xi turned to Di Chenxiao and said pitifully, "Master Chen, I can get off here."
Di Chenxiao remained expressionless and said in an icy voice, "Stop the car."
"Yes." This time, the driver stopped the car promptly.
"Thank you, Mr. Chen." After saying that, Shi Xi put her hand on the car door, preparing to get out of the car.
The voice of the person she least wanted to provoke rang in her ears. Di Chenxiao looked at her with his deep gaze, "Miss Shi, how do you plan to thank me?"
