Chapter 69: You Can’t Wash It Clean

As soon as Shu Lin entered the villa, he ran into the old butler and immediately asked, “Butler, did you send the dirty clothes that the Second Young Master and I changed out of yesterday to the laundry room?”

The old butler nodded, “They should have been sent over. Is there something important that you left behind, young sir? Don’t worry, the maids will carefully check before washing and collect any items left behind.”

Shu Lin secretly thought things were bad, gave a perfunctory response, and headed towards the laundry room, praying that Shao Chengxi’s clothes hadn’t been washed yet.

After taking a few steps, he seemed to remember something, stopped, and asked, “Where are Grandpa and the others?”

At this hour, the Shao family should all be awake, but he couldn’t see anyone in the living room.

The old butler said, “The four of them are in the study.”

“Oh.”

Shu Lin replied and continued towards the laundry room.

When he heard “the four of them,” he knew who they were.

According to custom, the five-day Presidential Palace meeting had ended, and the participants would have two days of public holiday.

Therefore, Shao Chengxi would be resting today and tomorrow.

Besides Shao Tingrui, Shao Bingheng, and Shao Chengxi, Shao Shiyan was also in the study.

It seemed Shao Shiyan was growing up quickly and was already able to attend Shao family meetings.

Pushing open the door to the laundry room, Shu Lin saw two middle-aged women sorting the dirty clothes that needed to be washed.

Seeing him enter, they were momentarily stunned and politely greeted him.

Shu Lin appeared calm and smiled, “Excuse me, have you washed the dirty clothes that the Second Young Master and I took off?”

One of the women shook her head, “Not yet.”

Shu Lin was secretly delighted and slowed down his speech, “Could you please help me find them?”

After receiving the dirty clothes that the two of them had taken off last night, he quickly returned to his bedroom.

Picking out Shao Chengxi’s coat and shirt, Shu Lin smelled them again.

Although the scent was already faint, he could still smell the orange-scented Omega pheromones.

Shu Lin felt both fortunate and saddened.

He was fortunate that the evidence was still there.

He was saddened because the scent reminded him again that Shao Chengxi had slept with another Omega.

Instantly, his eyes became moist, and his breathing carried a hint of unbearable sobs.

His heart ached.

It ached terribly.

He took a deep breath, forcibly held back the tears, folded the shirt, and placed it in a paper bag.

Just as he was about to turn around and leave, he suddenly heard familiar footsteps behind him.

Before he could turn around, Shao Chengxi had already hugged him from behind, his warm breath spraying on his ear.

“Baby, I’m so glad to see you.”

Shao Chengxi’s voice was filled with joy, “I couldn’t find you when I woke up this morning, and it worried me to death. Why didn’t you answer my phone? Is my baby angry with me?”

His arms tightly encircled Shu Lin’s waist, and he lowered his head to kiss him.

Shu Lin’s body stiffened, and complex emotions surged in his heart.

He struggled in Shao Chengxi’s embrace, lowered his eyes, and avoided his kiss, “Don’t…”

Even he himself didn’t realize that his voice was choked with emotion when he spoke.

Shao Chengxi immediately noticed Shu Lin’s abnormality, his lips lingered on the back of his neck, then he raised his head, forcefully turned his body around, and gently coaxed him:

“My baby is really angry with me. Did I make a fuss last night because I had too much to drink?”

Shu Lin lowered his head, tightly pursing his lips, and didn’t speak.

Shao Chengxi looked down and saw the tooth marks on Shu Lin’s skin through the collar of his hoodie.

Rows and rows of them, there seemed to be quite a few.

Without asking, he knew he had done it last night.

He felt both distressed and guilty, lowered his posture even more, and his voice became even gentler:

“Baby, I’m sorry, I didn’t know my own strength and bit you too hard. It’s right for you to be angry with your husband, I promise…”

“You’re not my husband, hmph, from now on, you can be a husband to whoever you want, I don’t care!”

Shu Lin suddenly spoke, interrupting him, raised his head, and glared at him with puffed-up cheeks.

Shao Chengxi looked at him and felt that he was extremely cute.

Even when angry, he was so good-looking, like a clean, white pufferfish.

He must have been too outrageous yesterday, which made his baby so angry.

He had to find a way to coax his baby.

Thinking of this, Shao Chengxi’s tone was full of flattery:

“Baby, I was wrong, don’t ignore me, okay?”

“If you’re really still angry, tonight, I’ll let you bite me as much as you want, and I won’t say a word, how about it?”

Shu Lin turned his head to the side, not looking at him, “Who wants to bite you, you’re so dirty.”

Shao Chengxi heard him speak so adorably, the corners of his mouth couldn’t help but curl up, and he became playful:

“Don’t worry, I’m not dirty, your husband will wash himself clean, I guarantee you’ll be satisfied, baby can bite without worry.”

Shu Lin suddenly pushed him away, his voice changed, “You can’t wash it clean, dirty is dirty.”

After saying that, he grabbed the clothes in his hand, slammed the door, and left.

If his sister hadn’t told him to not alert the enemy in order to collect evidence and not break up with Shao Chengxi just yet,

Otherwise, he would have gone to confront him this morning.

Liar, Shao Chengxi is a big, emotionally unfaithful liar!

Shu Lin trotted downstairs and saw Shao Tingrui in the living room, he still put away his angry expression, stopped, and greeted him politely:

“Grandpa, I have to go out today. It’s been too long since I went to school and the dubbing crew, I have to take care of some urgent matters.”

Shao Tingrui: “Go ahead, remember to come back at noon, don’t leave Chengxi for too long.”

Shu Lin bit his lower lip and replied sullenly, “…Okay.”

Grandpa is Grandpa, Shao Chengxi is Shao Chengxi, one thing at a time.

As soon as he left, Shao Chengxi followed him out.

Seeing that his grandson was going to chase Shu Lin, Shao Tingrui called out to stop him:

“Chengxi, even if you like someone, you have to give him enough personal space. Xiao Lin has been with you for five days straight, you should let him go out and see his classmates and friends.”

Shao Chengxi stopped and watched Shu Lin’s figure disappear at the door.

Grandpa was right, his baby was so angry just now, he must have really been suffocated.

He should let him get some fresh air.

Shao Tingrui: “He is a sensible child, he will be back at noon. Doctor Chen will be here later, let him examine your body first.”

Shao Chengxi withdrew his gaze and nodded.

Shu Lin came out of the Shao Residence villa and hadn’t walked far when Shu Lingxiao’s car arrived.

After getting Shao Chengxi’s clothes, Shu Lingxiao first sent Shu Lin to the dubbing crew, then went to find her forensic friend.

This friend was skilled in pheromone identification, and she had to hand over the clothes to her friend for identification first.

For prosecutors, it is necessary to adhere to the principle of conducting a comprehensive investigation and avoid being prejudiced.

She would fully investigate Shao Chengxi’s matter.

She would investigate both the evidence of his “guilt” and collect evidence of his “innocence.”

This matter was not a game.
