She Shocks The Whole World After Retirement

Nine hundred and twenty-two: Revealing Di Wu’s identity

Sheng Xiao originally listened to Di Wu's complaints with an indifferent expression, without showing any displeasure, until he heard the name 'Old Liu' from Di Wu's mouth, and his sharp eyes suddenly narrowed.

Lao Liu...

Although Di Wu said he thought the cake was unpalatable, his little finger obediently continued to stretch towards the piece of cake.

He was eating the cake as usual, apparently not realizing that what he just said had betrayed him.

Sheng Xiao was tall and had long legs, so he didn't need to raise his hips, so he just sat down on the high-legged platform. He placed his right elbow on the bar, bent his index finger and middle finger and tapped rhythmically on the bar. While tapping, he said: "Uncle Di, what you said is a bit too much. Although the cakes made by our Ah Huang are not delicious, they are It's not as hard to swallow as the cakes made by Lao Liu. The cakes made by Lao Liu are notoriously hard. They look like baguettes and cannot be bitten at all."

Di Wu, who was eating the cake, didn't notice anything was wrong. Naturally, he didn't realize that he was jumping into the verbal trap set by Sheng Xiao.

Without raising his head, he echoed Sheng Xiao's words, "No, every time I eat the pastries he made, my teeth hurt for a while..." As he said that, Di Wu noticed that the look in Sheng Xiao's eyes at him had unknowingly changed. With scrutiny and sharpness, he finally realized what he had said.

Di Wu, who had been talking endlessly just now, suddenly lost his voice.

He bit his tongue in annoyance until the tip of his tongue bled. Then he lowered his head pretending to be indifferent, reached for the wine shaker on the table, and continued to mix the wine.

Different liquors collided with each other in the cocktail shaker, just like Di Wu's heartbeat, which was very chaotic.

Staring at Di Wuji's deceptive movements, Sheng Xiao whispered: "Old Liu is the oldest pastry chef at God's Domain College. His masterpiece 'Hungry Bread' is the food in the cafeteria that has the worst reviews all year round, but has the highest sales. Because the pastries he makes are so delicious, many freshmen who have just entered the school and haven’t earned points yet will go to his window to buy bread.”

Having said this, Sheng Xiao's gaze fell on Di Wu's face inquiringly.

Staring at Di Wu's full beard, Sheng Xiao said pointedly: "Every day, the clean pastries and food that cannot be sold in the cafeteria will be transported by the kitchen to the Monster Forest to feed the monsters."

When he heard the place name 'Monster Forest', Di Wu blinked his eyelashes slowly several times.

Sheng Xiao suddenly leaned forward, his cold eyes as sharp as a sword's edge, staring at Di Wu without blinking, not letting go of any subtle expression on Di Wu's face. He said: "Uncle Di, it seems that the old Liu you know and the old Liu I know are the same old Liu."

The cocktail shaker in Di Wu's hand suddenly became quiet.

He opened his heavy eyelids and stared at Sheng Xiao with unmistakable guilt and panic. He then said, "...I'm talking about Lao Liu from the People's Canteen at the end of Wuhu Street."

Seeing that he was still quibbling, Sheng Xiao's expression gradually turned sad.

"Why are you lying?" Sheng Xiao suddenly held Di Wu's hand and sighed: "Although you monsters can cover up the breath of your soul, you can't cover up the breath of the blood in your body. Naris still treasures that Heart Protector Scale, do you really want me to tell Nalis the truth and let her get the Heart Protector Scale to try with you?"

Hearing this, Di Wu's pupils trembled wildly.

He tried to free his hand from Sheng Xiao's palm, but as a mortal, he was no match for Sheng Xiao.

Di Wu gave up.

He lowered his head and said in despair and resignation: "You know, it only took me five months to go from a high-spirited young man to the uncle I am now."

Sheng Xiao was stunned.

He stared at Di Wu's bearded face with a shocked look.

The Di Wu in front of him looked like a commoner in his fifties.

But Di Wu said: "When I climbed out of the Black Eye with Anna, she still looked like a teenager of eighteen or nineteen years old. But Anna was seriously injured and remained in a coma for five months before she woke up. She woke up The day before, I was already looking like this.”

Di Wu pointed at his face and the wrinkles near his eyes, his expression became painful. "It only took me 5 months to go from a teenager to a middle-aged and elderly person. I am aging too fast. My life may end at any time, but she is in her prime."

Di Wu's eyes were red. He sat helplessly on the bench behind him. From the side, he looked like an old man. "You know, Anna, who lost all her memory, the first time she saw me after waking up, did she care what my name was?"

Sheng Xiao's throat rolled up and down for a while before he asked in a hoarse voice: "What?"

The left corner of Di Wu's lips curved up, as if he was smiling, but the right corner of his lips seemed to be paralyzed, unable to match the movements of his left lip. This funny smile was made with all his strength and love.

"Old man." Di Wu laughed so hard that she shed tears, "The girl I love so much, the first time she saw my human form, she actually called me old man!"

When he heard Anna blurting out 'Old man', the light and hope in Di Wu's eyes were instantly extinguished.

His whole world became extremely gray.

Di Wu looked at Sheng Xiao and asked Sheng Xiao, "If it's you, do you still dare to tell her the truth?"

Sheng Xiao couldn't answer the questions raised by Di Wu at all.

If it were him, would he dare to tell Yu Huang the truth?

I'm afraid I just don't dare.

Sheng Xiao didn't dare to think about it. If one day he lost all his cultivation, his legs were disabled, and his face became old, and his beloved Yu Huang didn't remember him at all, and the first thing he said to him was 'Old man', then what would happen to him? There will be so much pain and despair in my heart.

"Di Wu..." Sheng Xiao finally understood the origin of the name Di Wu, "There is no past and no future. I borrowed the surname of the old dean. This is where your name comes from."

"Yes." Di Wu shook his head and sighed: "I appear out of thin air, I exist for a short time, and I disappear in an instant. Aren't I just a 'nothing'?"

Sheng Xiao looked at Di Wu with compassion.

At this moment, he truly felt the depth of Di Wu's love for Anna.

Di Wu's love for Anna is like firewood in the fireplace, silent in the hot summer and burning in the cold winter.

"Then...what happened to your leg?" Sheng Xiao frowned and asked, "Did it fall in the crack of the abyss?"

"So be it." Di Wu patted the metal prosthesis under his knee. Hearing the sound of metal tapping from the leg bones, his back bent even more.

At this moment, Di Wu looked like an old sycamore tree that was about to wither.

"The energy in the cracks in time and space is far more terrifying than you imagine." Recalling the scene at that time, Di Wu's eyes trembled crazily, and he said hoarsely: "After we fell into the cracks in the abyss, the energy in our bodies was instantly destroyed. Suppressed, there is no way to control it. We are like a drifting boat, pushed forward by a mysterious force. After an unknown period of time, we saw a black eye..."
