"Crash—" The sound of the shelf falling was quite loud.
At the sa ti, he caught Song Yi with his body.
Song Yi landed steadily on top of him, only hearing his muffled grunt.
Her heart was instantly in a flurry: "Are you...are you okay?"
The only sound beside her was Tang Si’s heavy breathing.
"Why aren’t you speaking?" Song Yi beca even more worried.
"My head hurts, just give it a minute." Tang Si finally spoke.
Then, with a hint of laughter in his voice, he gently patted her back: "My dear, you almost crushed ."
Outside, Li Wen heard the commotion and imdiately ca over to knock on the door to inquire, but the door was locked.
Li Wen hurriedly knocked: "President Song, are you okay? Say sothing?"
He seed ready to break the door down, and Song Yi realized she was still on top of Tang Si, so she quickly got up.
She replied to Li Wen outside: "It’s fine, I just accidentally knocked over the table."
Hearing Song Yi’s response, Li Wen finally relaxed: "Are you injured? Open the door, I’ll co in and clean up."
"It’s fine."
Outside, Li Wen asked a few more questions, and Song Yi just gave perfunctory answers.
She looked up and down Tang Si’s body, using her hand to inspect him here and there, then switched on the small lamp by the bed. In the dim light, to see more clearly, Song Yi leaned in very close.
"No injuries." Tang Si grabbed Song Yi’s hand and sat next to her: "Don’t start touching as soon as we et."
Though his words were casual and not very serious, his gaze remained focused outside.
"Why are you here?" Song Yi asked, sowhat puzzled.
"Mission." Tang Si looked at her: "You’re here for work?"
"I originally ca to check out the venue." Song Yi looked into Tang Si’s eyes and slowly said, "But this place is too strange. I wanted to leave, but there was no way out."
Tang Si frowned.
So unpleasant suspicions and thoughts erged in his mind.
Soone deliberately brought the two of them here for a eting.
What was the purpose?
Soone had been watching them from the start, yet there hadn’t been a single suspect until now. Are the people behind it hiding too well... or is he just incompetent?
"This place really shouldn’t be stayed at for long." Tang Si said: "Lock all the doors and windows, I still need to go out and take a look."
Song Yi noticed that Tang Si didn’t look well.
"On your way here, you must’ve seen many small courtyards, right? What are the people in those courtyards doing?"
"I heard won screaming, n shouting, and many other strange noises..."
With Tang Si here, she didn’t feel as scared.
"I called you before I ca, but you didn’t answer. I think my phone is being monitored, and the old man at the police station entrance that day might be a problem." Song Yi recounted her phone incident to Tang Si.
Tang Si deeply frowned, the situation was becoming more complex.
A long ti passed.
"It’s okay." Tang Si raised his hand, gently pinching Song Yi’s cheek, mischievously smiling: "I’ll handle everything, you just stay ho and be beautiful, don’t worry about anything else."
"As of now, if I hadn’t co here and bumped into you, I wouldn’t have known you were actually sleeping under the sa roof with another man, hmm?"
"If word got out that you were sleeping under the sa roof, whether or not there was anything between you..." Tang Si lifted Song Yi’s chin, looking every bit like a rogue teasing a virtuous woman, with a mischievous smile.
The next second, Song Yi’s lips were aggressively kissed, and in her ear was his deep and indistinct voice: "Why do I feel a bit like a cuckold?"
