Lu Wen was not sure if she would really keep her word. However, since she had agreed to the bet, her next steps would be entirely justified.
“I hope you won’t regret it.” After saying that, Lu Wen turned around and left.
Finally, there was no one blocking the door. Shen Yin waited outside the room for a while. Seeing that no one came by again, she sneaked in.
Fu Ting’s room was decorated very simply. There was not much furniture. Perhaps it was because he had just returned to the Lian house and they did not have time to get ready. The huge room looked empty.
Shen Yin first rummaged through his closet, then his drawers, but she found nothing.
Just as she was wondering where Fu Ting had hidden it, she suddenly saw something peeking out under the corner of the blanket. Shen Yin lifted the blanket in disbelief and saw the dress.
She had not expected Fu Ting to hide her things under the blanket. A chill ran through her and she felt rather afraid.
Just as she was about to hide the dress in her clothes and quietly bring it out of the room, the door handle suddenly turned.
She subconsciously held her breath and quickly searched for a place to hide. Her gaze fell on the closet. She gritted her teeth and braced herself to enter.
The door rattled. Someone had obviously opened it and walked into the room.
Shen Yin squeezed into the closet and looked out through the crack in the door. She saw a dark figure stop in front of her.
“Little mouse, come out. I see you.”
The man’s voice was incredibly flirtatious, as if he was very sure of her location. He stood in front of the closet.
Shen Yin could hear her heart beating like a drum, as if it could jump out of her throat at any moment.
Seeing that there was no way out, she could only accept her fate and open the closet to meet Fu Ting, who was standing outside with a smile.
“How did you know I was here?”
Fu Ting raised his eyebrows and turned slightly to show her the overturned blanket on the big bed behind him. He smiled and said, “Lu Wen said that you were looking for me? Why were you looking in my bed?”
Shen Yin choked and took a deep breath. “I won’t help you reconcile with Lian Meng and Lian Jing, because what you’ve done isn’t worthy of forgiveness!”
“What do you know?” Fu Ting frowned and looked at her thoughtfully. After a while, he curiously looked at her bulging chest. “Lian Jing told you? Does he know that you came to steal?”
“I didn’t steal. I’m just here to take back what belongs to me!” Shen Yin’s face darkened as she glared angrily at the man who was always smiling cheekily. Fu Ting smiled and ignored her anger. “Then how did your things get into my bed?”
“You stole it! You’re the thief!” Shen Yin glared at him fiercely, then turned around and left with her things.
Fu Ting easily grabbed her wrist and pulled her in front of him. “How much did Lian Jing tell you? Did he tell you everything? Including why Lian Meng is so afraid of me?”
Shen Yin looked up at him steadily and struggled to break free from his grip. She managed to push him to a safe distance from her. “You know what you’ve done. Lian Meng is your younger cousin, but you did such a terrible thing to her. Are you trying to make peace with her now for the same reasons?”
“What do you know?” Fu Ting’s usual smile vanished and a ruthless look flashed across his eyes. “I never intended for Huang Long to bully her. I wasn’t drunk that day. Even if Lian Jing didn’t appear, I wouldn’t have let that scumbag, Huang Long, succeed!”
“What do you mean?” Shen Yin frowned. She stared at the man who looked half-crazed and suddenly saw that he looked wronged.
Shen Yin doubted what she had seen but when she tried to confirm it, she realized that he had already turned his back to her. He said heavily, “Forget it. There’s no point talking about those things now. Shen Yin, I can return the item to you now, but you must do what you promised me.”
“Why?” She suddenly could not understand this man.
He had entered her room and stolen such a private item from her, but now he was suddenly willing to return it to her. He was too capricious, and Shen Yin could not understand his true thoughts.
Fu Ting smiled bitterly and turned around to walk towards her until she was forced against the cupboard door with no way to retreat. Then, he said seriously, “I’m used to being looked down on, but that doesn’t mean I’m as despicable as you think. None of you believe me. That isn’t important. I’ll use my own way to take back what belongs to me.”
“You…” Shen Yin wanted to say something else, but a loud sound suddenly came from the door.
Lian Jing kicked the door open forcefully and looked coldly at the man and woman who were very close to each other. His expression was frosty. “Why are you here?”
Shen Yin pushed Fu Ting away in a panic. She immediately saw Lu Wen standing behind Lian Jing and looking at her smugly. Her heart, which had just calmed down, instantly sank..
