Di Chenxiao stroked Shi Xi's hair, which was draped over his lap as she slept, and said, "Okay."
"Aren't you going to ask why?" Shi Xi rubbed her head against his leg, like a pet rubbing against its owner's hand, trying to win his affection.
“You have your own ideas and your own goals. I don’t care what you want to do. I’m just happy that you thought of asking me for help first.”
Xixi must have her own reasons for seeking out Di Shi; if possible, he also wanted to give himself to Xixi.
She reached out and wrapped her arms around Di Chenxiao's thigh, hugging him tightly, a smile playing on her lips, clearly showing how happy she was.
"Xiaoxiao, I want Ashi to protect Yan-ge for a while. Yan-ge doesn't come to Xiyuan every day now, and I'm afraid something might happen to him when he's alone." He was sorry, but he couldn't tell Xiaoxiao that she knew some things about the future.
Feeling anxious and uncertain, she cared more and more about Xiao Xiao.
Unexpectedly, one day she would make such a hesitant decision, becoming somewhat unlike herself.
A dark current flashed in Di Chenxiao's eyes, his hand that was touching her hair paused, and he gave a bitter smile inwardly.
Xixi still didn't believe him, didn't believe he wouldn't do anything to hurt her. Since she wouldn't tell him her background, he could wait.
He could endure waiting for her alone for thirteen years, and he could also spend even longer waiting for her trust.
Shi Xi didn't look up, nor did she look at Di Chenxiao's face. If she had looked up, she would have seen three parts loneliness, four parts solitude, and three parts pain in Di Chenxiao's eyes.
He concealed his grief and said gently, "Don't worry, I've instructed Di Shi to stay close to Han Yan at all times. Recently, some outside forces have appeared in the capital. One is from the X organization, and the other is an unknown force. I haven't been able to find out the origin of that force either. From now on, whenever you go out, you absolutely must have Thirteen accompany you and never go out alone."
"Okay, I promise I'll let Thirteen come along. Do you think the X organization might be here for Mi Rou?"
"No, the X organization has always known about Mi...Ya's whereabouts, but they haven't made a move against her. If they wanted to, they wouldn't have waited until now. They must be after their rival, Ryubu."
Shi Xi wanted to laugh a little. No matter how many times she whispered Mi Rou's name in his ear, he still couldn't remember it.
Fine, considering how well-behaved Xiao Xiao is, she won't make things difficult for him. Let him call her Yu then!
"Are they aiming to annihilate the Ryube clan, or are they seeking revenge against a specific member of the Ryube clan?"
"A member of the Flow Department. The Flow Department is a secret national department. The X Organization is not so rampant that they dare to attack their forces on the Flow Department's territory."
"A member of the Ryubu?" Yan Ge was shot and killed not long after, and members of the X organization have now flooded into the capital. So, what is the relationship between Yan Ge and the Ryubu?
Di Chenxiao smoothed Ping Xi's furrowed brows. "Don't think about it. Leave everything to me. I will protect you and the people you care about."
"Mmm." The obedient Shi Xi put the issue of Han Yan's relationship with Liu Bu out of her mind for the time being.
Di Chenxiao didn't leave home until very late—the Shi family.
After taking a shower, Shi Xi went to find Mi Rou, hoping to ask her for a favor.
"Come in, I knew you'd come looking for me." Mi Rou had already opened the door, waiting for Shi Xi's arrival.
"How did you know I would come to find you?" She didn't sit down, but stood in front of Mi Rou, sizing up the girl who was a little older than her.
"The X organization has come to the capital. You've come to drive me away."
