Di Jiu took two steps back to make way for Shi Xi, rubbed his arms, and said with a complicated expression, "Miss, could you please not call me that? It's giving me the creeps!"
Ever since the leaders of the ten secret guards learned that Shi Xi was Chong Xi, they have been calling Shi Xi "Miss".
Shi Xi had emphasized to them that they should not call her "Miss" but could call her by her name. Except for A Shi who called her "Xiao Xi", Di Er who called her "Silly Girl", and Di Yi who called her "Xiao Xi Xi", everyone else called her "Miss".
"Hehe, Emperor Wine, well... I... thank you, and I'm sorry, I hurt you by mistake."
After speaking, he bent down and bowed deeply to the Emperor.
Di Jiu hurriedly dodged, "Miss, I can't accept such a generous gift... I..."
Di Shi walked over to Shi Xi and pulled her up. "I've heard about A Jiu's injury. It's not your fault; he was just too stupid. You didn't know beforehand that Di Jiu was impersonating Zheng Jie, so it's understandable that he showed no mercy to Zheng Jie."
Knowing that Shi Xi was Zhong Xi, he was both happy and sad. He was happy because his master had always loved her, but sad because he could never compare to his master's love for her.
He won't be here for long; he'll be leaving soon. I don't know if he'll be able to accompany Xiaoxi to take the college entrance exam.
Shi Xi straightened up, covered her face and whispered, "Actually, I also think it's Di Jiu's fault. He acted too much like Zheng Jie. However, if it weren't for this, I wouldn't have known that Di Jiu was so strong that he could leave a mark on the wall."
Di Jiu smiled weakly, "I'm not as good as you, not as good as you. You have something to say to A Shi, right? I'll leave first, you two can talk slowly."
After saying that, he left the room and closed the door.
Shi Xi looked bewildered. "Why did he go out? I didn't come to see you for anything. I was just bored and wanted to chat with you."
When she saw the green grapes on the table, her eyes lit up. She skipped over to grab them, taking one bite at a time. The skin was so thin that you didn't have to spit it out. They were thick and firm, with a tender texture, and tasted even better than grapes.
Indra also walked to the table, picked up a green grape, and found it tastier than usual.
"No one eats the fruit in my room except you."
Shi Xi swallowed the green grape in her mouth. "You don't understand the deliciousness of food, but you don't have a gluttonous appetite, unlike me. I eat everything and I'm very greedy. I guess even a glutton can't eat as much as I can."
"Ha... Taotie isn't as cute as you. By the way, I bought a lot of pure milk, do you want some?"
"Yes, yes, yes, where is it? I can get it myself."
"In the refrigerator."
Shi Xi stuffed all three green grapes in her hand into her mouth, then skipped off to get the milk.
Di Shi's preferred style is also black, white, and gray, very simple. The refrigerator is white, with three shelves, and the fresh food section is filled with pure milk, a brand that I often drink.
She took a bottle of milk from the outermost side, then went back to the green grapes, taking a bite of a green grape and a sip of milk.
While eating, Shi Xi suddenly looked distressed and said with a mournful expression, "A Shi, ever since I came here, people around me have been getting hurt one after another. Di Er, Xiao Xiao, you, Mi Rou, Shi San, Di Jiu, they were all injured because of me."
"Grandpa Shi is gone, and everything can finally come to an end. But I have no memory of Chongxi or Kai. I only know what kind of people Chongxi and Kai were from you."
A lot has happened recently, and she wanted to talk to a friend about her feelings. After thinking about it, she thought of Ashi.
