"Dead?"
Shi Xi looked at Di Chenxiao in disbelief.
"Diwen drove after him, but the roads were slippery due to the snow, and his car plunged off a cliff. Diwen found a charred body at the bottom of the cliff, and after examination, it was confirmed to be Qin Feng."
Shi Xi recalled the scene of meeting Qin Feng in the mall.
She believed that Qin Feng had softened his heart, both towards her and towards Brother Qin.
Otherwise, since he lived under the same roof as Brother Qin, he could have easily killed Brother Qin, but he didn't.
He had opportunities to kill her, both at her birthday party and in the mall, but he didn't.
"No wonder my parents and brother all went to my uncle's house. Why didn't they tell me?"
"It's not that they don't want to tell you, it's just that they feel it's not the right time to tell you yet."
Di Chenxiao leaned his chair against Shi Xi's chair and put his arm around her.
Shi's parents just felt that they had let Shi Xi down because they hadn't been by her side since she was little, and that they would tell her about the family's troubles when the time was right.
Who knows what the right time is!
"I understand, second cousin...when will he be cremated?"
She only called Qin Feng "Second Cousin" twice, and the words "Second Cousin" still sounded somewhat unfamiliar coming from her mouth.
"The day after tomorrow. Your parents will tell you that you can attend Qin Feng's funeral."
Shi Xi nodded, indicating that she understood.
"I need to work on the exam paper now, you should take care of your work too!"
"good."
Qin Feng's death seemed to have no effect on Shi Xi. She was still in the mood to do her exam and didn't shed a single tear.
After completing the test, Shi Xi started looking at the answers. Except for the first multiple-choice question, she got all the other questions wrong.
"Uh, this test paper is very difficult, really difficult."
Di Chenxiao didn't look at the questions at the back; he looked at the multiple-choice questions on the first page, most of which were basic questions.
This exam paper is from last year's college entrance examination!
"Yeah, it's pretty difficult."

The following evening.
Shi's mother called Shi Xi and asked her to attend Qin Feng's funeral the next day, and told Shi Xi about what Qin Feng had done.
"Xiaoxi, I hope you don't blame me for not telling you right away. I know you're busy with your final exams and didn't want to bother you with family matters..."
"Mom, I know you mean well, but I'm all grown up now, and I'm not weak in terms of mental resilience. Please don't treat me like a porcelain doll, okay?" Shi Xi said to her mother while lying in bed.
In fact, she had no feelings for Qin Feng; she only felt some sympathy for his unfortunate childhood.
As for whether he harmed her or hated her, she didn't really care.
She doesn't need to care about everyone's feelings, nor does she want everyone to like her. As long as she can live a peaceful and carefree life, that's enough for her.
Shi's mother: "Mom understands. From now on, Mom will tell you about anything that happens at home."
"Mmm. By the way, Mom, did your second uncle and aunt cause any trouble for you and your uncle?"
When Shi Hongming and Zhou Jia learned that Shi's mother's nephew had killed their daughter, they wondered what kind of trouble he would cause the Qin family.
On the other end of the phone, Shi's mother rubbed her head wearily and said, "Ever since they found out that Qin Feng was the murderer, they have been making a scene at the entrance of the Qin family's company. The security guards can't get rid of them, and now it's causing a huge uproar online."
Shi Xi had a bad feeling; the Qin Group's stock had also fallen.
"Mom, has Uncle's company been affected?"
