Chapter 59 - 59 58 The Underwear Was Stolen

59: Chapter 58: The Underwear Was Stolen 59: Chapter 58: The Underwear Was Stolen However, in the end, Song Yun managed to suppress the rage in his chest.

If this had happened on his own turf, things would have been easier to handle, but since it was at Mr.

Liu’s place, he felt obliged to show Mr.

Liu some respect.

He believed that Mr.

Liu would take this incident seriously, and those who should be dealt with would definitely not be spared.

After handling the matter, Song Yun declined Mr.

Liu’s kind offer to let the three of them stay in Tian Nan for a few days and went back to Sunan after dinner.

At the Sunan City train station, a D series high-speed train stopped at the station, a child holding the hand of a young woman, bouncing around innocently.

Yet occasionally, his eyes revealed a touch of sinister malice.

The woman had a face that could cause the downfall of a nation, partially hidden behind a pipa, with half of her face obscured by her hair.

However, if there were a breeze at that moment and you looked at the other half of her face, you would see a horrifying sight.

The child was Lin Zhu, ranked fourth on the Dragon List, and the woman was Zhu Yeqing, ranked second on the Elephant List.

During this time, countless highly-skilled martial artists, either new arrivals in Sunan City or those who had already been there for some time, were awaiting an opportunity to stand out, or more precisely, a lifeline.

For these experts, what attracted them the most was not money but their lives.

The government closely monitored these experts.

Only those on the Dragon Elephant List had the opportunity to serve the nation.

For others, crossing the national baseline meant certain death.

Those on the Dragon Elephant List, however, were treasured by the country; even if they committed shady acts, they would still get another chance.

Thus, they would do anything for this chance, those on the list trying to prevent others from knocking them down, and those not on the list frantically trying to carve a path through and secure a position.

Therefore, the competition at the Dragon Tiger List was intense, with everyone gathering in Sunan City, and a battle about to erupt.

The next morning, Song Yun was woken up early by a loud cry.

As soon as he opened the door, he saw Li Shishi pacing around the courtyard with a gloomy expression, while Xiao Qing was trying to calm her down, though without knowing what had happened.

Song Yun was somewhat baffled by the friendship between women.

Originally, Xiao Qing had been terrified of Li Shishi, but ever since they talked about something a while ago, whenever Li Shishi was home, Xiao Qing would come over to hang out.

Raising an eyebrow, Song Yun swayed as he spoke, “Who upset our President Li so early in the morning?”

Li Shishi gave Song Yun a cold look and said in a stiff tone, “Come with me, I need to ask you something.”

Song Yun was confused, thinking, ‘What did I do to you just after getting up?’

As soon as they entered Li Shishi’s room, she looked down at Song Yun as if she were interrogating a criminal, though she was just standing on the bed.

Song Yun was straightforward about it.

If you want to look down on me to question me, I’ll just sit on the floor to make you feel superior.

But just as he sat down, he looked up and saw the pink undergarments inside Li Shishi’s sleepwear, and he swallowed his saliva, asking, “What are you shouting about early in the morning?

You woke me up.”

“Have you been in my room these past few days?” Li Shishi asked with a serious expression.

“No, I’ve been as tired as a dead dog these past few days.

How could I have wandered into your room?

Did you lose something?” Song Yun asked, puzzled.

But then he thought about it.

Although the security here isn’t impenetrable, it’s still the best in this area.

With monthly property fees in the five figures and regular patrols, how could things just disappear in your own house?

“Are you really sure you haven’t been in my room these last few days?”

Song Yun, growing impatient, retorted, “I wasn’t there, I wasn’t there, why should I lie to you?

If you lost something, just say so.”

Li Shishi waved her hand, motioning Song Yun to leave.

After being tossed around, Song Yun still had no idea what actually happened in Li Shishi’s room.

As soon as he went out, he caught Xiao Qing’s shimmering eyes staring intensely at him, making him feel uneasy.

In a low voice, Song Yun asked, “What’s wrong with Li Shishi today?

She’s been furious since early morning.

Is it her time of the month?”

“Didn’t Sister Shishi tell you?” Xiao Qing cocked her head innocently, “She lost a piece of lingerie early this morning, that’s why she’s so angry.

Did you do it?”

Song Yun almost choked, angry at Xiao Qing’s insinuation.

How could he ever be involved in stealing lingerie?

Shaking his head, Song Yun said, “How could I, a highly upright man, admired in the 21st century as a model of decency, do such a sleazy thing?”

“But our neighborhood has always been very secure,” Xiao Qing confidently said.

“I live next door and even my lingerie has never gone missing.

If there’s any difference between our houses, it’s that there’s an extra man in this yard.” Xiao Qing looked at him deeply, “Senior Brother Song, a man should take responsibility for his actions.

I believe if you explain it to Sister Shishi, she’ll understand.”

Understand what exactly, you moron!

I didn’t do it, so why should I confess?

Should I just barge in and say to Li Shishi, ‘Stop looking for your lingerie, I couldn’t sleep last night and played with it?’ What nonsense!

But then, Song Yun thought, if he did say that… Li Shishi might actually believe him.

During dinner, Song Yun finally cleared up the case in his mind.

Li Shishi had carelessly washed her lingerie after her shower last night, hanging it right outside the ventilation window.

Much to her shock, when she woke up early this morning to collect them, they were all gone—what was happening here?

After much pondering and Xiao Qing’s amateur sleuthing, the suspicion had turned to Song Yun.

With such good security in the area, and only Song Yun being the only man in the house, who else could be the prime suspect but him?

Having a sip of his porridge and munching on a bun, Song Yun mumbled, “How could I be that kind of person?

You know, if I ever stepped in your room, I wouldn’t just steal something from the outer room.

I’d go straight into your inner room, and you wouldn’t even know I was there.”

“Did you come in?” Li Shishi slammed her hand on the table, startling Xiao Qing who was sipping her porridge ever so gently, almost dropping the bowl.

“I never went in,” Song Yun glanced at her.

“You know how busy I’ve been.

As soon as I get to my room, I fall asleep.

How would I have the time to wander around?”
