The last time she came with the Shi family, she had been thinking about how to escape and had no time to experience what it was like to be on the battlefield.
At first, she was only there to accompany Xia Chu. Later on, she fell in love with the battlefield. The people there might be scheming against each other, but most of them only had one thought, which was to protect their country and their loved ones.
They would not hesitate even if they had to sacrifice themselves.
Shi Sheng had Shi Mu's blood in his body. On the battlefield, it was easier for him to get fired up.
On the battlefield, Xia Chu grew, and so did Shi Sheng. The Zhan Long Guards around her were also growing.
The Zhan Long Guards' reputation gradually grew, and naturally, Shi Sheng's name also spread.
"Ah Sheng, we won!" Xia Chu, who was dressed in military uniform, jumped in front of Shi Sheng and hugged him. "Ahhhh, we won!"
Shi Sheng looked at the defeated team in the distance. A flicker of light flashed across his eyes. He smiled slightly. "Yes, we won."
"Ah Sheng, you're so smart." Xia Chu's face was full of admiration. "If it weren't for your trap, we wouldn't have won so easily. My Ah Sheng is the best. I like you so much!"
Shi Sheng patted her shoulder. She glanced at Ji Die standing not far away.
Yes, Ji Die had followed them.
Although she didn't know what Xia Chu was thinking, if she liked it, she would try not to meet Ji Die.
"I'll go over and talk about the next arrangements." Shi Sheng pointed to the side. "Come to my room later. I'll take a look at your injury."
"It's okay. It's just a small injury." Xia Chu didn't care much, but she agreed happily. "Remember to leave the door open for me."
Shi Sheng left. She turned back to look at Ji Die. Ji Die had already blocked her line of sight. She held her forehead slightly, feeling uneasy.
In the end, she suppressed her uneasiness and told the people next to her about the next arrangements.
When she was done, Xia Chu was already waiting at the door. "Ah Sheng."
Shi Sheng opened the door. The light inside automatically adjusted to the appropriate brightness.
Xia Chu went straight to Shi Sheng's refrigerator and took out a few bottles of wine.
Before she could open it, it was taken away from her. Xia Chu turned around and met Shi Sheng's gaze. She pouted, "What are you doing?"
"You're injured. Don't drink." Shi Sheng put the bottle back and handed her a drink. "Drink this."
Xia Chu took it unwillingly and bent down to get out from under her arm. "Ah Sheng, I find that you're becoming more and more long-winded, just like my brother."
Shi Sheng took out the first aid kit and pulled Xia Chu to sit on the sofa. "Do you think I care about other people's lives?"
Xia Chu giggled. "Ah Sheng is the best."
"Don't move."
"Ah Sheng, what kind of man will you marry in the future?" Xia Chu's watery eyes stared at Shi Sheng. She was very curious about what kind of person could have her Ah Sheng.
It was a pity that she wasn't a boy.
If her brother was still around, she would definitely let Ah Sheng be her sister-in-law.
"I won't get married," Shi Sheng said indifferently.
"Well … you're the head of the Shi family. You definitely can't get married." Thinking of this, Xia Chu tilted her head. "Then let me ask you another question. What kind of man will you like?"
"Who knows what will happen in the future?" Shi Sheng shook his head.
"Tell me." Xia Chu poked Shi Sheng's face. "Tell me, what kind of man do you like? I didn't ask you who you like. Why can't you tell me?"
"What about you?" Shi Sheng pulled her clothes down and tidied them up. "What kind of man do you like?"
Xia Chu said without hesitation, "My brother is like that. Hehe, let me tell you, I've thought about it since I was young. My other half must be as perfect as my brother and dote on me as much as he does. "
Xia Chu was no longer so aggressive when talking about Xia Lin. She even felt a little proud.
It was probably because she had heard too much about Xia Lin in the army.
"Does Ji Ye fit that description?" Shi Sheng sat on the sofa and sank his body into the sofa.
"Ji Ye?" Xia Chu curled up beside Shi Sheng and rested her head on her lap. She held her face and said, "Actually, I don't know much about Ji Ye. But he was quite polite at the engagement party. Let's wait and see. Both of us were arranged by our families. We'll only know when we get to know each other more. "
"If you don't want to …"
"Ah Sheng." Xia Chu interrupted her. "I have family responsibilities that I need to bear. I'm willing to sacrifice my love to fulfill my brother's wish. Maybe I'll like him in the future? "
Shi Sheng licked her dry lips. "Okay."
Xia Chu chattered non-stop. Shi Sheng closed her eyes. She didn't know if she was listening. But Xia Chu didn't care at all. She knew that she was listening. She could answer all the questions she asked.
Xia Chu said that she was tired and fell asleep at some point.
Shi Sheng opened her eyes and carried her to the bed. Just as she covered her with the quilt, someone knocked on the door.
Outside the door, Ji Die's face was pale and her eyes were filled with tears. "Miss … is Miss Ji here?"
"What's the matter?"
Ji Die was a little afraid of Shi Sheng. She grabbed the hem of her clothes. "Master … Master is gone … The family wants Miss Ji to go back immediately."
"When did this happen?"
Ji Die answered instinctively, "Four hours ago."
"Four hours ago? You just got the news now?" Shi Sheng's expression was cold.
Now that Master Xia was gone, the first person to be notified should be Xia Chu, the successor.
Why did they only get the news four hours later?
How many things could be done in four hours?
Ji Die didn't know how to answer. She could only say, "Please call our Miss Ji."
Shi Sheng closed the door and asked the Zhanlong Guards to prepare the spaceship. She simply packed her things and carried Xia Chu onto the spaceship, including the bedsheets.
Ji Die probably didn't expect that Shi Sheng didn't wake Xia Chu up. She wanted to wake Xia Chu up a few times, but Shi Sheng glared at her.
Shi Sheng didn't wake Xia Chu up until they were halfway through the journey.
"… Ah Sheng, where are we going?" Xia Chu looked at the flashing lights outside, her face full of confusion.
Shi Sheng's tone was flat. "Master Xia has passed away. We're going back to the Capital Star."
Xia Chu was stunned.
Master Xia had passed away …
That was her father …
Although her father hadn't been kind to her since Xia Lin's death, thinking that she had caused Xia Lin's death, he was still her father.
How could he be dead?
When she left, he was still very healthy.
Shi Sheng told her the latest news. "The Xia family deliberately hid the news because they didn't want you to go back so soon. I've already sent people to the Xia family to investigate. They probably want to get rid of you."
"Ah Sheng …"
"Don't worry. I've asked the Zhanlong Guards to be on standby. It won't be that easy for the Xia family to get rid of you."
Xia Chu grabbed Shi Sheng's hand and didn't say anything.
"Contact your people now. I'll tell you what to do. You just have to trust me."
Xia Chu nodded and opened her personal terminal.
Shi Sheng held her hand. "Don't use this. I asked you to set up an encrypted channel last time. Have you set it up?"
"Okay." Xia Chu opened the encrypted channel and contacted her people in the Xia family.
The news was similar to what Shi Sheng said.
