Di Chenxiao had told Shi Xi many times not to go out alone, but he secretly sent people to follow her, just to reassure her.
He would never use words of cherishing the present moment to do anything disrespectful to her.
Shi Xi pinched Di Chenxiao's cheek. "I know, I'll definitely have Mi Rou or Thirteen with me when I go out, don't worry! Besides, I'm pretty good at fighting, it won't be easy for anyone to hurt me!"
Di Chenxiao chuckled, his ribs still throbbing slightly, and teased, "Hmm, you're quite the fighter."
She caught the teasing in Di Chenxiao's voice and punched his shoulder hard. "Don't laugh!"
"I didn't laugh."
"Your lips are upturned, and the corners of your eyes are slightly upturned too. You call that not smiling? Humph—"
"I'm not laughing anymore, I really won't laugh anymore."
This time, there was no smile or teasing in his tone, only a hint of amusement in his eyes.
"snort--"
Shi Xi turned her back to Emperor Chenxiao and ignored him.
Di Chenxiao shifted his body closer to Shi Xi, supporting himself with his arms as he stepped over her until they were face to face.
She tried to pull away from the man, but he quickly pulled her into his arms.
"Don't move, it hurts."
Shi Xi stopped struggling and glared at the man with annoyance. Who was this guy who was injured and still wouldn't behave, always running around outside? Now he knows what pain is.
"Does it hurt? Should I take a painkiller?"
No matter how much she complained in her heart or blamed Di Chenxiao for not taking care of his body, she still felt sorry for him when she heard him cry out in pain.
"I don't need to do anything, as long as you don't struggle, I won't feel any pain."
Shi Xi: "..."
It's her fault for struggling!
**
Nighttime, the Shi family home.
In the dead of night, all the servants in the Shi family had gone to sleep, except for the light still on in Grandpa Shi's room.
Grandpa Shi stood by the window, looking out, his eyes filled with shrewdness.
"Still can't get in touch with Qin Feng?"
The person on the other end of the phone said, "Qin Feng was at the mall this afternoon."
"This kid is pretty good at running away."
“He dared to disobey your orders and make decisions on his own. You only allowed him to trick Shi Yue into stealing the company’s secrets, but you didn’t allow him to kill Shi Yue.”
"He found his new family."
"You have evidence that he kidnapped Qin Xue, how dare he..."
Grandpa Shi approached Qin Feng because they could use each other. He needed Qin Feng to help him plot against Shi Xi to confirm if she was the person he had been searching for. He would help Qin Feng deal with Qin Xue and her daughter.
Qin Xue was saved by Shi Xi, and the plan to take revenge on Qin Xue and her mother was thus abandoned.
“Since he dared to kill Shi Yue, he’s not afraid that I will present all the evidence I have to the Qin family. Tonight, you will deliver the evidence of his murder of Hua Ru, Xiao Meng, and Shi Yue, as well as the evidence of his kidnapping of Qin Xue, to Qin Yu.”
The person on the other end of the phone hesitated. "Qin Yu is Qin Feng's older brother. Would he really put family aside for the greater good?"
"Yes, Qin Yu is not as treacherous as Qin Feng."
Tonight is destined to be a sleepless night.
Someone anonymously sent Qin Feng evidence of his crimes to Qin Yu, who saw the evidence the very next morning.
When Qin Yu received the evidence, Di Shi discovered the murderer who killed Shi Yue.
Di Shi and Di Er were skilled hackers, so they wouldn't normally be involved in investigating cases. However, since the victim was Shi Xi's cousin, they had to take it seriously.
Moreover, since Di Chenxiao was wronged by the Shi family, they also wanted to find the murderer who killed Shi Yue as soon as possible to prove Di Chenxiao's innocence.
That's why Indra accepted the mission to find the truth.
However, since it was already too late, Di Shi and the others did not report to Di Chenxiao until early the next morning.
