Chapter 18 The Alluring Tyrant



Shi Xi felt like she was hallucinating, otherwise why would such a affectionate voice be speaking to her?

"What?"

"You're very cute." Di Chenxiao looked into Shi Xi's eyes and said earnestly.

Bang bang bang—

My heart is beating so fast. Could it be that this body is having a heart attack?

But it doesn't hurt.

My face feels so hot.

She whispered, "You are beautiful."

"Not as pretty as you."

Ahhhhhh—

So charming.

Could it be that he likes her?

No, that's impossible. They've only met three times. How could he possibly like her?

Moreover, the book states that he had no women in his life before he disappeared at the age of twenty-nine.

Shi Xi tapped her head, telling her not to overthink things.

"What's wrong?" Di Chenxiao asked.

"No, it's nothing."

The waiter brought the dishes over and placed them on the table one by one. "Your dishes are all served. Please enjoy your meal."

Shi Xi was worried that Di Chenxiao wouldn't be able to get used to the food at the small restaurant, but it turned out that her worries were completely unnecessary.

He seemed to be enjoying his meal.

"I thought you wouldn't like to eat this."

"When I was a child, I often didn't have enough to eat because of training. It was normal to go for days without any food when on a mission. Back then, I ate anything to avoid starving to death," Di Chenxiao said without any sadness, joy, or complaint.

Shi Xi pursed her lips and said with heartache, "You had such a hard life before."

Feeling Shi Xi's pained gaze, Di Chenxiao smiled and said, "It's not bitter." With you, it's not bitter.

Shi Xi was quite curious about Di Chenxiao's past.

"You want to know about my past? I can tell you." Di Chenxiao said, looking at Shi Xi's face full of curiosity.

Shi Xi shook her head. "No, I don't want to."

Although she was very curious about the Emperor's past, few people in the capital knew about it, so it was better for her not to know.

Curiosity killed the cat.

A look of melancholy appeared in Di Chenxiao's eyes. Xixi still didn't want anything to do with him. Even if he told her about his past, she wouldn't want to know.

Xixi, when will you be able to interact with him without being so restrained?

Shi Xi didn't understand why Boss Di's mood had suddenly soured.

A man's mood is as changeable as the weather.

Emperor. The Ever-Changing Boss: ...

After finishing her meal, Shi Xi looked down at her protruding belly, rubbed it, and said, "I'm full."

"Emperor, Xiaoxiao, I'll go pay the bill first." Shi Xi got up and went to the cashier.

"Hello, your total bill is 180 yuan."

"Here you go." Shi Xi took out 180 yuan from her bag and gave it to the cashier.

After paying, they left the restaurant.

"How is it? It tastes pretty good, right?" Shi Xi said proudly.

"Um."

"It's late now, I need to go home. Xiao Xiao."

"I send you."

"Thanks."

The black Geely car slowly drove towards the Shi family's home.

Stop near my house.

After a few seconds, Di Chenxiao slowly said, "Okay."

At the entrance of the Shi family home, Shi Xi stood in front of the car and said, "Xiao Xiao, I'm home. I still owe you a meal. I'll treat you next time I have time."

After taking a few steps, she stopped and turned back to look at Di Chenxiao. "Xiaoxiao, goodnight."

"Goodnight, Xixi." Di Chenxiao smiled like a peach blossom in March, which was very beautiful.

Even after Shi Xi's figure disappeared from sight, Di Chenxiao's gaze remained fixed on the direction she had gone.

Di Jiu looked at his master with concern. Miss Shi had too much influence on his master.

Di Chenxiao's lips were tightly closed, his face was pale, and he was covered in cold sweat, as if he was enduring great pain.
