Shi Xi smiled and raised the corners of her eyes, but she still held the chopsticks tightly in her mouth with her teeth.
Xiao Xiao fed her some meat!
She also wanted to tease Di Chenxiao, so she bit her chopsticks to prevent him from eating!
A hint of doting affection flashed in Di Chenxiao's eyes, and his tone softened.
"Eat quickly, or the food will get cold."
"Oh," Shi Xi replied, pushing the chopsticks out from between her teeth with her tongue.
Xiao Xiao's stomach isn't good; she can't eat raw or cold food. She should just eat her meal properly!
Shi Xi stopped bothering Di Chenxiao, and the two quickly finished lunch. Then Shi Xi took a blanket from the lounge and lay down on the sofa for a nap.
She went to bed late last night. Since she came here, she has never had the habit of staying up late. Whenever she stays up late, she feels listless the next day.
A girl with a furrowed brow was curled up between the small sofa and the fluffy blanket, perhaps dreaming of something unhappy.
Di Chenxiao reached out and gently smoothed his furrowed brows, which relaxed and relaxed.
After much hesitation, I carried the person into the rest room, gently placed them on the bed, and covered them with a blanket.
As soon as Di Chenxiao put Shi Xi down, Shi Xi reached out and grabbed Di Chenxiao's hand, pulling it to her face and rubbing it affectionately, letting out a soft moan.
The person on the bed did not open their eyes, but was asleep, and subconsciously did not want Di Chenxiao to leave them.
Helpless, Di Chenxiao sat by the bed and waited until Shi Xi was asleep before leaving.
However, Di Chenxiao was destined to be disappointed. No matter how much time passed, as long as he showed any sign of leaving, Shi Xi would hold his hand tightly and not let him go, and Shi Xi's eyes were always closed.
If he hadn't realized from Shi Xi's breathing that she was truly asleep, he would have thought she was doing it on purpose.
The sun, radiating a faint halo, gradually sank below the horizon, while the black screen slowly rose. City dwellers, having finished a long day's work, began their journey home to their cozy homes.
Shi Xi opened her eyes to complete darkness, and was still clutching a hand in hers.
"ah--"
A scream echoed through the lounge as Shi Xi threw out a hand.
At the same time as Shi Xi screamed, the lights in the lounge came on!
The lounge lights are motion-activated and turn on as soon as it gets dark. However, Di Chenxiao was afraid of disturbing Shi Xi's sleep, so he set them to be voice-activated with a remote control, so they would turn on whenever a sound was made.
Shi Xi looked up at the chandelier on the ceiling. It was a bit too bright, and she blinked several times before she realized what was happening.
“Owl… Owl owl…”
Shi Xi slowly moved her body closer to Di Chenxiao, her small hand quietly pulling the large hand she had abandoned.
"Xiaoxiao, I was half asleep and didn't recognize your hand. I won't do it again..."
Di Chenxiao lowered his eyes, his brows furrowed with impatience, but when he saw Shi Xi barefoot, all his impatience turned into a faint annoyance.
He carried her to the bed and sat her down, then squatted down to put shoes on Shi Xi.
He put on his shoes, stood up, took Shi Xi's hand, and said, "Now that you're awake, let's go!"
Shi Xi followed Di Chenxiao out of the lounge and looked out the window at the sky, where the lights of the high-rise buildings were already on.
"I only slept for one night, and then... then it got dark?"
Di Chenxiao pulled Shi Xi out. Most of the employees of the Di Group had already gone home after get off work, and only a few were still working overtime.
When the employees who were working overtime saw that the boss and the boss's wife had finally come out of the break room, they all stopped what they were doing and looked at Shi Xi, whose face was flushed from sleeping too long.
