Di Chenxiao kept observing Shi Xi's expression, and only felt relieved when he saw that she was alright.
Shi Xi kept her head down watching the surveillance video. She didn't notice anything unusual the first time she watched it, but she trusted her own heart. No matter how well she disguised herself, there would always be a flaw.
She automatically filtered out the voices of Zhou Jia and Shi Hongming from the outside world, focusing all her attention on the surveillance video.
She didn't believe Shi Yue's acting was flawless. Shi Yue smelled of alcohol, but not strongly, which meant she hadn't drunk much.
As Shi Xi watched the video for the third time, Di Chenxiao whispered in her ear, "You can watch the moment she walks in."
She showed the video of Shi Yue entering the room, a mere two seconds, and Shi Yue's eyes showed no signs of intoxication.
She pressed the pause button with lightning speed, freezing Shi Yue's calculating, clear-headed, and sly expression on the phone screen. "Shi Yue, is this what you mean by being drunk? Your acting is quite good; it's a pity you're not in the entertainment industry."
Shi Yue's face was pale, and she weakly tried to explain, "I, no... I... I was really drunk, that's why I... that's why I went into the wrong room, no..."
Seeing that Dijiu wasn't guarding the door, she thought that what Shixi could do, she could do too. She could serve Master Chen. As long as Master Chen wanted her, she could stay by his side, even if it was just as a mistress.
As she entered, she couldn't help but reveal her ambition, which allowed the surveillance camera to capture her disguise.
When Shi Hongming saw that his actions had been exposed, he slapped Shi Yue hard across the face. "How have I taught you? Master Chen has a girlfriend. No matter how much you admire him, you can't do such a... such a despicable thing."
Shi Yue covered her slapped face and sobbed softly, "Master Chen, I was wrong, Xiao Xi. I was just in love with you, Master Chen, and that's why I was blinded by my feelings and did something I'm sorry for. I will never do it again, never again."
After saying that, she slapped herself twice in the face, loudly and forcefully, which made Shi Xi feel a little uneasy.
People who are ruthless to themselves are truly terrifying.
Shi Xi ignored Shi Yue's face, which was covered with handprints, and said, "It's not about whether I forgive you or not, but whether Master Chen will let you off the hook. You dared to frame Master Chen, so you should bear his wrath."
Di Chenxiao had turned a blind eye to Shi Yue's family out of consideration for her, which allowed them to take advantage of her. This time, she would not let Di Chenxiao let them off the hook.
Zhou Jia, her initial fierceness and arrogance gone, said softly, "Xiao Xi, we're all family. Master Chen is your boyfriend. If you say the word, he'll definitely release Xiao Yue. We're family, blood is thicker than water. You can't just watch Master Chen make things difficult for Xiao Yue..."
Shi Xi interrupted Zhou Jia, "Second Aunt, are you trying to morally blackmail me? You know that Master Chen is my boyfriend, but your daughter is trying to seduce him. Does your daughter even consider me her family?"
"Your family dared to yell at Master Chen just now because you're my relatives and he's my boyfriend, and you think he won't do anything to you out of respect for me. Let me tell you, I don't want selfish, ungrateful people like you who are trying to seduce Master Chen's relatives."
“I have never had a say in front of Master Chen. What he says is one, and what he says is two. No one can change his decision, including me.”
Di Jiu couldn't help but twitch her lips. Shi Xi lied without batting an eye, and when had her master ever had a say in front of her?
