After dinner, Lian Jing went to Old Master Lianâs room first. Shen Nian followed him obediently. Lu Wen stayed behind and pretended to be putting things away. In fact, after everyone left, she secretly went upstairs to observe Old Master Lianâs room.
Fu Ting narrowed his eyes and smiled as he turned back to his room. As soon as he pushed open the door, he saw Shen Yin waiting inside. His eyes grew
smug.
However, Shen Yinâs expression was solemn. She frowned and said seriously, âYou should know that Iâm a forensic pathologist and work at the municipal
bureau.â
âI know.â The smile in Fu Tingâs eyes deepened. He raised his hand to lift the long hair behind her ear, but she slapped his arm away ruthlessly.
Shen Yin was so angry that she was trembling. She glared at him and said, âDonât touch me. Give it back to me!ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âWhat?â Fu Ting pretended not to understand and raised his eyebrows. Before she could explode with anger, he nodded with a smile and said, âI remember now. Youâre referring to that sexy lingerie, right?â
Shen Yin took a deep breath and pointed at his nose with a trembling finger. âYou should know that this already constitutes theft and indecency. I wonât call the police because youâre Lian Jingâs cousin, but you have to return the item to me now.â
âDidnât you give it to me yourself? Why do you want me to return it?â Fu Tingâs words became more and more absurd. He sat on the sofa smugly and crossed his legs to admire her angry expression.
Shen Yin was really angry. Before dinner, she had suddenly received a message from him saying that she had left something with him. Although she was surprised, she thought about it and knew what he was referring to.
Last night, she realized that she had lost a very embarrassing dress, but she had not realized that he had removed it.
Her expression darkened. Seeing Fu Tingâs refusal to confess, she knew that the recording device in her pocket was probably useless. She tried a different tack, âWhy did you ask me to come over?â
Fu Ting chuckled and suddenly stood up to put his hand in her pocket.
Shen Yin hurriedly reached out to stop him, but he put his hands behind his back. For a moment, the two of them were extremely close.
She twitched uncomfortably, but she could not break free from the man who was stronger than her.
Fu Ting did not intend to do anything to her now. After taking her phone out of her pocket, he retreated. He smiled and turned on the phone screen. When he saw the recording interface, he smiled at her smugly. âWell? Iâm very smart, right? Iâm not inferior to Lian Jing!â
Shen Yin was so angry that she tried to snatch the cell phone, but Fu Ting took the opportunity to embrace her. âYou threw yourself at me. If Little Jing sees you later, you have to explain matters on my behalf.â
âWhat do you want?â Shen Yin forced herself to remain calm as she widened her eyes and stared at Fu Tingâs teasing eyes without blinking.
Fu Ting smiled gently and said, âI just want you to do me a favor. Donât be so nervous, okay? As long as you help me, Iâll return the item to you immediately.
I definitely wonât let Lian Jing know.â
âWhat is it?â Shen Yin stared at him warily, her hands secretly clenched into fists behind her back. If he said anything offensive, she would definitely not let him have his way even if she risked blowing matters up.
But to her surprise, Fu Tingâs request was a reasonable one. He just looked at Shen Yin with an aggrieved expression and said pitifully, âYou might not know this, but in the past, I caused a lot of trouble when I was young. As a result,
Lian Jing and Lian Meng donât like me very much, so I want to ask you for help.
If you have a chance, please put in a good word for me in front of them.â
âThatâs it?â Shen Yin suspiciously probed his sincerity. She was stunned for a moment before saying, âLet go of me first. Letâs talk properly.â
âOkay.â Fu Ting obediently let go. Seeing her take a step back in panic, he deleted the recording and returned the phone to her.
Shen Yin took it in surprise and put it in her pocket. She smoothed her wrinkled clothes and said indifferently, âAlright, if thatâs all you want, I can agree to it. But you have to keep your word and return the item to me.â
âAlright, as long as Lian Jing or Lian Meng change their opinion of me, Iâll return the item to you immediately.â Fu Ting did not pursue the mater, but quickly agreed.
Shen Yinâs intuition told her that this matter was not simple, so she wanted to take advantage of the situation. She pursed her lips and probed, âYou said that you caused trouble back then. Was it related to Lian Meng?â
Fu Ting was stunned. After a moment, he regained his composure. âYes, I was young and arrogant back then. I misjudged the situation and almost harmed Meng Meng. As her elder cousin, Iâve always felt especially guilty, so I want to try my best to make it up to her.â
That was easy. If he was really sincere, then it was only right that she help to persuade Meng Meng to accept his apology.
Shen Yin heaved a sigh of relief and said, âAlright, Iâll try my best too, but I hope no one finds out about what happened today.â âNo problem. Iâll keep this between the two of us..â
