Shi Xi didn't want to argue with them any further, so she bypassed them and wanted to go see Di Chenxiao.
Something must have happened to him, otherwise he would never have allowed Di Lu to question her.
Di Lu and Di Wen reached out to stop Shi Xi's steps.
Di Shi, Shisan, and Mi Rou simultaneously swept away the people blocking Shi Xi's way.
Di Wen was caught off guard when Thirteen suddenly attacked him, and was knocked back a few steps by Thirteen's blow.
"Thirteen, do you want to rebel?"
“Chief Wen, the master’s order to Thirteen is to protect Miss. If you block Miss’s way, it is disrespectful to her. Thirteen cannot ignore this.”
After exchanging a few blows, Di Shi and Di Lu both stopped fighting.
Di Lu: "A Shi, you attacked me for this woman."
“A-Lu, I don’t know what happened, but no matter what, you can’t lay a hand on Xiao Xi.”
“I didn’t intend to lay a hand on her; I just wanted to stop her.”
“Xiyuan is Xiaoxi’s home. She can go wherever she wants. By what right do you stop her?”
"you……"
Mi Rou guarded Di Er as if she were a wolf, saying, "Xiao Xi, I'll stop them. You go find Master Chen!"
Shi Xi turned around and sat on the sofa, crossed her legs, and looked at everyone with a serious expression.
"It seems none of you want me to go upstairs, and you're quite hostile towards me. Can anyone tell me what happened while I was away from Xiyuan?"
"If I'm not mistaken, it should be related to Master Chen!"
Di Jiu coughed twice, wanting to get closer to Shi Xi, but was stopped by Mi Rou. "Don't get close to Xiao Xi. Just say what you want to say, don't get so close."
"Ahem—, Mi Rou, I won't do anything to Miss Shi, so don't be wary of me!"
"That's hard to say!"
Di Jiu helplessly raised his hands, "Alright, alright, I won't come near. Miss Shi, the master has been unconscious since last night. The reason for the master's unconsciousness is the bowl of soup you gave him last night."
Shi Xi hurriedly asked, "How is he now?"
"Master is still not awake."
“I know he’s not awake. If he were awake, would you still be here stopping me? I’m asking how he is. Is he alright?”
Di Lu sneered, "You're really confident. Master's body is fine; he'll just be unconscious for a while."
She rolled her eyes at Di Lu. Fine, whatever she said now would be wrong. She stopped talking and went to check on Xiao Xiao.
Di Shi was somewhat worried. Shi Xi would never harm his master, but would his master really believe that Shi Xi had not harmed him after he woke up?
Di'er leaned against the stairwell, not reaching out to stop Shi Xi, and slowly said, "Di Wu detected the presence of rice straw in Master's blood."
Shi Xi stopped going upstairs, turned around and looked at Di Er, "What is 'grain grass'?"
"The effect of straw is to make it difficult for the wounded to heal. At best, it slows down the healing process; at worst, it can be fatal."
If the wound doesn't heal, the injured person will have to endure the pain indefinitely; it's a rather vicious medicine.
She clutched her slightly aching chest as she listened to Di Chenxiao take the herbal medicine, her heart throbbing with pain.
Di Lu, Di Qi, and Di Wen all looked at Shi Xi with ill intent.
She understood that the reason they had made such a grand welcome for her was not only because Di Chenxiao had drunk the soup she made and fallen into a coma, but also because Di Chenxiao had consumed the herbal medicine.
"Di'er, please tell me, why is Master Chen's coma related to my soup? Why did Master Chen consume the herbal medicine? And what does this have to do with me?"
