Shi Xi seemed to have been paused, staring motionlessly at Di Chenxiao.
What did she just hear?!
"Um, could Zheng Jie have come back to life like me?"
Di Chenxiao gently flicked Shi Xi's forehead. "No, Di Jiu disguised himself as Zheng Jie and stayed by Shi Dechang's side. The real Zheng Jie died the day before your car accident."
No wonder she didn't see Dijiu when she went to see Dishi; it turns out he had already gone undercover by Grandpa Shi's side.
"How did you come up with the idea of sending Emperor Wine to Grandpa Shi's side?"
Di Chenxiao: "I suspected he wanted to capture you before. Di Shi was injured, and then Mi Rou was also injured. Obviously, their target was you. I just didn't expect that Shi Dechang would use a car accident as a pretext to capture you. All of this was a conspiracy between Chong Shuang and Shi Dechang. Di Jiu didn't get the news."
He stayed by Shi Dechang's side afterward and didn't have a chance to message me about your situation. It wasn't until I found a flaw in the surveillance footage that he messaged me to tell me your whereabouts.
Shi Xi felt sorry for Di Chenxiao; waiting was truly painful.
"You must have been very worried when you didn't hear from me! Luckily, I didn't believe them."
Xiao Xiao could have stopped Grandpa Shi directly, but because of her, he couldn't directly attack Grandpa Shi, which is why he fell into Grandpa Shi's traps time and time again, and was also hesitant to act.
Di Chenxiao put his arm around Shi Xi, avoiding her wound, and said, "With you here, everything is worth it."
"Bang bang— bang—"
The sudden gunshot startled Shi Xi. "What's going on?"
Di Chenxiao comforted the frightened Shi Xi, "Di Wen led his men in. We'll stay in the room and go out after they're done."
"This isn't a good idea for us!"
“We can’t help them even if we go out. You’re injured and need to rest.”
Shi Xi looked at her arm wrapped in gauze. Well, her injury was serious.
She can just stay here quietly. She's sure Di Chenxiao has already made all the arrangements, so she doesn't need to worry.

Zheng Jie, his hands bandaged, stood behind Grandpa Shi. "Sir, Bai Yanlang has led his men in. Let's retreat!"
Grandpa Shi's face was gloomy as he slammed the teacup beside him to the ground. "Bai Yanlang's men weren't stopped by the Bai family? These idiots, why didn't anyone report this?"
"Our network was cut off by the hackers from Xiyuan, and all the information we receive is what they let us know..."
If you don't let them know, they won't be able to find out.
Grandpa Shi's face turned ashen. "Damn it! This is the last experimental site. All my hard work over the years has been for nothing!"
He used to have many experimental sites, but recently, Di Chenxiao's people cleared them out, leaving only this one.
A glint flashed in Zheng Jie's eyes. The last experimental point?
Master, there's no need to worry about Shi Dechang making a comeback!
"Sir, we..."
"Bring Shi Xi here with your men. With Shi Xi in my hands, do you think Bai Yanlang or Di Chenxiao would dare to make a move? Take more men with you."
"yes."
Grandpa Shi's eyes flashed with a sharp light. There were only two people left in the room. "Let's go out the back door."
One of the bodyguards said, "Aren't we waiting for Brother Zheng?"
“He is not Zheng Jie. Zheng Jie is dead. I have already given part of the experimental data to Zhui. We are going to Country A to continue our experiment.”
The bodyguard pulled out a gun from his waist, pointed it at Grandpa Shi, and sneered, "Only half? Too bad, I've already given the other half of the data to the master. The master will conduct the next experiment in your place. You can rest in peace now."
