Chapter 385 Was she reaping what she sowed?



Di Chenxiao rubbed Shi Xi's head, making her already messy hair look even more disheveled.

"This room holds memories. Do you remember me telling you that someone died saving me?"

"Remember."

The person who allowed Di Chenxiao to live a peaceful life for half a year is the person she wants to thank.

"These are her things, not many."

"Was the person who saved you a man or a woman?"

What novels and TV dramas usually love to write about is how someone repays a life-saving debt with their body and their heart.

The room was locked. Such a precious item belonging to someone who saved his life must have been cherished by that person.

Shi Xi, being petty, wondered if Di Chenxiao would fall in love with his savior, could she control her jealousy?

"She's a little girl, Uncle Chong's daughter. She's even younger than me, who's fourteen, but she likes to act like an adult."

Di Chenxiao did not want to hide anything from Shi Xi; he was willing to tell her anything she knew.

Shi Xi remained silent the whole way, her head bowed, as she walked towards the bedroom.

Back in the bedroom, Shi Xi wrapped herself completely in the blanket, turning herself into a cocoon.

"I don't want to sleep with you tonight, you can sleep on the floor!"

She was angry, jealous, and unhappy. She decided not to sleep with Di Chenxiao tonight.

Di Chenxiao: "..."

Women's moods are so changeable.

He stood by the bed, not daring to get on. "Xixi, are you angry? You have to tell me why you're angry so I can change, right?"

Shi Xi intended to make things clear, but she couldn't stay wrapped in the blanket; that would make her seem less imposing.

It's easy to wrap yourself in a blanket, but hard to roll off.

She rolled around a few times but couldn't get the blanket off her, and lay on the bed, feigning death, feeling somewhat powerless.

Wouldn't you call this a case of creating one's own trap?

Di Chenxiao suppressed a laugh, "How about I help you?"

She remained silent and continued to play dead.

"Are you sure you don't need my help?"

No need, she'll definitely roll the blanket off in the middle of the night.

A profound silence—

Di Chenxiao continued, "If you don't sleep, your skin will get worse, and you won't be able to get up tomorrow morning. Will you still have to train?"

"Come and help me, it's all your fault for wrapping me in the blanket."

"Yes, yes, it's all my fault." Well, he was the one who wrapped her in the blanket and prevented her from getting out.

Shi Xi emerged from under the covers, hands on her hips, standing on the bed. "Di Chenxiao, do you like the person who saved you?"

When roll call came suddenly, Shi Xi rarely called out the name Di Chenxiao.

She usually calls him Xiao Xiao, but when she's being affectionate or unhappy, she calls him Master Chen. In front of outsiders, she'll also call him Master Chen to give him face. She rarely calls him by his full name.

"The only person I love, from beginning to end, is you, and it has nothing to do with your appearance, age, personality, status, or anything else about you."

He only liked Xixi, the one who made his heart flutter.

Shi Xi sensed that Di Chenxiao's words had a hidden meaning, but hearing such a heartfelt confession late at night still moved her.

"I'm very satisfied with your answer. Come on up, I'll share the blanket with you."

"Thank you for your kindness, sir."

Di Chenxiao quickly picked up Shi Xi and lay down, covering them with the blanket to sleep.

The next day.

Shi Xi still got up early to receive training, but this time the person training Shi Xi was changed to Di Chenxiao.

His training objective was to enable Shi Xi to easily use Kai's skills without having Kai's memories.

"The most important things in martial arts are speed and power. Power is not brute force, but skillful application of technique."

Shi Xi listened attentively to Di Chenxiao's explanation; the real practical exercise was about to begin.
