The next day.
Shi Xi slept until the sun was high in the sky before getting up.
Di Chenxiao got up early to exercise.
She lay half-reclined on the sofa and said lazily, "I will definitely exercise in the future."
Mi Rou yawned. "Don't think about the future when you do things. You should start now. Go and exercise."
Why aren't you going?
"I don't want to go. I haven't set any goals. I'm in great health and don't need to exercise."
Shi Xi squinted, "Are you really an assassin? Are all assassins as lazy as you?"
"Hey, you can doubt my character, but you can't doubt my identity. Didn't my hard training over the past ten years earn me this few years of comfort?"
"Okay, okay, okay..."
Shi Xi saw Di Chenxiao come downstairs after taking a shower and lay on the sofa. She asked, "Xiaoxiao, did you want to tell me something last night? I was too sleepy last night and didn't hear what you said."
She fell asleep in Di Chenxiao's arms. She only remembered that he seemed to say something to her, but she didn't hear it clearly.
Di Chenxiao paused for a moment, then quickly continued walking towards Shi Xi.
"He didn't say anything. Have you had breakfast?"
Use food to change the subject.
Shi Xi shook her head weakly, "I haven't eaten. I'm so sleepy, but I still want to eat your cooking."
"I'll go cook."
Mi Rou rested her head on her hand, watching the young couple's interaction. "So sweet! It makes me want to find a boyfriend to play around with!"
"Are boyfriends just for playing around with?"
Mi Rou was startled by the sudden sound behind her.
"Shi Hao, do you know that scaring someone can be deadly?! You sneak up behind me like that, what are you trying to do? Wait a minute, don't you have to go to work?"
Shi Hao placed the tray he was carrying on the table. "You haven't had breakfast, so here you go."
Mi Rou wasn't picky about food. She picked up a steamed bun with her hand, took a big bite, and said, "Why are you suddenly being so nice to me?"
"I don't want to waste food left over from the kitchen."
Mi Rou: "..."
"Xiao Xi, you're eating the breakfast that Master Chen made, so I won't give you these."
Shi Xi took a sandwich and ate it in small bites. "I'm hungry. I'll eat a sandwich to fill my stomach first."
"Um."
"Brother, why didn't you come to work today?"
"I was working on documents until very late last night, so I'm planning to take half a day off."
Mi Rou swallowed the last bite of her steamed bun and joked, "You're not doing a good job as CEO at all. You even gave yourself half a day off? The company is all yours. If you don't go, will someone deduct your salary?"
Shi Hao: "Compared to that CEO in the kitchen, I am a very competent CEO."
Shi Xi suddenly felt that the sandwich in her hand didn't taste so good anymore.
"Big brother, Mi Rou, can you two stop arguing and involve other people? They're very dedicated too, you just didn't see it."
Mi Rou picked up the porridge from the tray; it was still very hot, she would drink it later.
"Oh, you're already defending Master Chen after just one sentence!"
"Master Chen is from my family, of course I have to protect him."
Shi Hao felt a little jealous. "Isn't your older brother your brother?"
Shi Xi, holding a sandwich, gave Shi Hao a bear hug.
"My eldest brother is also part of my family, but my future sister-in-law will probably be more willing to protect him!"
"Sister-in-law? You'll have a sister-in-law soon."
Shi Xi released Shi Hao and asked curiously, "Who is my sister-in-law?"
Judging from the older brother's expression, he probably already has someone he likes.
Mi Rou tightened her grip on the spoon, and with a 'crack,' the spoon broke.
