Chapter 22

Since Lin Fuzhang had already informed Wei Shuling beforehand, the latter was not particularly surprised. She just said, "That would be a bother for Xiao Su to thoroughly check our Aoxue's room. Not just her room, but also her wardrobe, drawers, and so on. Oh, and don't forget the closet; those little corners and all..."

This was a grand and proper excuse for Su Rui to rummage through everything! This mother-in-law was really giving it her all!

Lin Aoxue looked helpless, thinking her mother was a bit too careless. Checking wardrobes and drawers? Those were all personal items, how could they be shown to others? Especially not to this rogue!

"Alright, I won't miss any corner," Su Rui said with a smile, looking at Lin Aoxue meaningfully. His eyes sparkled with a hint of mischief!

As soon as the door to Lin Aoxue's room was opened, a faint, delicate fragrance gently wafted into Su Rui's nostrils. He took a deep breath, puzzled. This scent was also present in Lin Aoxue's office, definitely not from any perfume. Could it be—Lin Aoxue's natural body scent?

Su Rui took another deep breath, and indeed, the faint fragrance from Lin Aoxue's body was clearly captured by his nose!

This was amazing; it was the first time he had encountered a woman with a natural body scent!

The room was very tidy, spotless, just as Su Rui had imagined. It seemed that Lin Aoxue was a meticulous person in her daily life.

But—wasn't this tiring?

"Let's do it this way. You go downstairs and wait, I'll check it myself," Su Rui blocked Lin Aoxue at the door.

"No way, this is my room, I have to watch you," Lin Aoxue refused to leave. What if Su Rui peeked at her undergarments?

"Alright then, but I must clarify that all my actions are for the purpose of checking. You're not allowed to stop me," Su Rui said, "And as per your mother's request, I must pay special attention to the closet and other places."

Lin Aoxue was so angry she could grind her teeth. This guy was just giving himself an excuse.

"What, not happy?"

Su Rui smiled and moved closer to Lin Aoxue, "It's just us here, why don't we execute the bet?"

Mentioning the bet, Lin Aoxue's face instantly turned red, looking extremely beautiful and charming.

She wouldn't give Su Rui such a chance, calling him a "rogue" and then turning to leave the bedroom, closing the door behind her!

Su Rui chuckled and locked the door without hesitation!

Lin Aoxue only realized something was wrong after she left. She tried to turn the handle, but it wouldn't budge! This gave Su Rui the perfect opportunity to "rummage through everything"!

"Damn, I fell for it!" Lin Aoxue stomped her foot in frustration at the door.

However, Lin Aoxue seemed to have an idea and turned to the adjacent study.

In the study, there was a laptop. Lin Aoxue opened it and pressed a few keys, bringing up a surveillance interface!

The surveillance interface showed the image of her room!

This extremely hidden camera was strongly requested by Lin Fuzhang last year, for safety reasons. Every room in the villa was equipped with one. The camera was disguised as a screw on the lampshade, making it hard to detect even with a close inspection!

It seemed that Lin Fuzhang's safety awareness was really strong!

Lin Aoxue was very resistant to her father's request. Who would install cameras in their daughter's room? But she couldn't argue with her father, and in the end, Lin Fuzhang made the decision. However, only Lin Aoxue could view the surveillance footage.

For a long time, Lin Aoxue had almost never thought about this camera. It was only today that she remembered it, wanting to see what Su Rui was doing.

Although Su Rui had an electronic device detector, it wasn't completely reliable. If the eavesdropping device had an anti-detection feature, the detector wouldn't pick it up.

Therefore, rummaging through everything was necessary. Only what the eyes saw and the hands touched could be trusted. Of course, the things seen during the rummaging could be considered as a reward for the hard work.

Su Rui opened the first drawer by the bed, which contained some simple bedtime skincare products, nothing special.

The second drawer contained women's intimate clothing and monthly necessities. Su Rui looked at these small garments, imagining Lin Aoxue wearing them, and chuckled, his eyes seeming to brighten a bit.

If someone could see, they would be surprised to find that Su Rui's slightly lecherous smile didn't carry any lustful gleam, just a simple smile!

If it were another man, seeing these colorful, lacy, and fragrant garments would surely make him nosebleed!

"You bastard!"

When Lin Aoxue saw Su Rui open the drawer with the intimate clothing on the surveillance interface, her body trembled with anger, her fists clenched so tightly that her nails almost dug into her flesh!

Lin Aoxue was sure that Su Rui's next move would be to pick up the garments and sniff them lecherously!

She knew this guy wasn't a good person!

However, things didn't go as Lin Aoxue expected. Su Rui simply flipped through the drawer and closed it, showing no lingering interest in the fragrant garments, not even a second glance.

This was somewhat unexpected for Lin Aoxue. She loosened her fists, which had turned white from the force. What was going on? Su Rui shouldn't be this kind of person, right? Wasn't he a lecherous, low-down rogue?

Lin Aoxue looked at Su Rui in the surveillance image, puzzled and confused.

Su Rui checked very carefully, examining every drawer and corner, even crawling under Lin Aoxue's bed to check for anything unusual.

It took him a full half-hour to finish the inspection, and he was drenched in sweat.

If he had to check every room like this, he would be exhausted.

Seeing the sweat on Su Rui's forehead, Lin Aoxue remained silent, her eyes flashing with a complex expression.

Seeing Su Rui about to come out, Lin Aoxue quickly turned off the computer and waited by the bedroom door.

"How was the inspection?"

The door opened, and Lin Aoxue, surprisingly, asked first.

Su Rui wiped his sweat and said in surprise, "The sun is rising in the west. Shouldn't you be questioning whether I peeked at your intimate clothing?"

Lin Aoxue's expression froze. Yes, according to common sense, she shouldn't be showing such a "kind" expression to Su Rui!

"You would definitely peek, I don't need to guess," Lin Aoxue said coldly, trying to remain calm. Unbeknownst to her, two red flushes had already crept onto her cheeks, making her look incredibly charming.

Su Rui was taken aback for a moment, then chuckled, not wanting to dwell on the issue.

By the time Su Rui had finished checking all the rooms, it was already 10:30 PM.

Seeing his sweat, Lin Fuzhang and Wei Shuling thanked him repeatedly, feeling very apologetic, and insisted on letting Su Rui stay overnight.

"Brother Su, we have plenty of guest rooms. Why don't you stay the night? It's too late and not safe to go out now."

"That's right. Look at how much Xiao Su helped us tonight. No matter what, you must stay for the night," Wei Shuling added, finding Su Rui increasingly likable. Such a capable and hardworking young man was rare these days.

"Oh, if Aoxue agrees, I have no objections," Su Rui provocatively looked at Lin Aoxue again.

"I disagree. I don't want a pervert staying in my house," Lin Aoxue said coldly, eager to regain the upper hand after her earlier defeat.

"Aoxue, what's wrong with you?" Lin Fuzhang was a bit frustrated seeing his daughter being unfriendly to Su Rui again. Were they natural enemies? Why couldn't they get along from the first meeting?

After witnessing Su Rui's extraordinary skills, Lin Fuzhang was thoroughly impressed and wanted him to protect his daughter around the clock. With him around, he could rest easy about the villa's security. Even top international assassins would be no match for him.

But Lin Aoxue's attitude was crucial. If she disagreed, no amount of persuasion could change her mind. This little girl, he really didn't understand how she developed such a personality, it was really frustrating.

Lin Aoxue was firm, "I won't let him stay overnight."

"This..." Lin Fuzhang looked troubled.

Su Rui didn't mind, "Brother Lin, Sister-in-law, you rest early. I'll take a taxi back."

"That's not acceptable! I'll arrange for a driver to take you. Aoxue, go see Su Rui off," Lin Fuzhang patted Su Rui's shoulder and said.

Lin Aoxue wanted to argue but saw her parents close the door and enter the living room. She clearly saw her father wink at Su Rui before closing the door.

What was going on? Her father actually made that gesture! Lin Aoxue rubbed her eyes, thinking she might have seen wrong.

"Let's go, see me out," Su Rui chuckled, not worried that Lin Aoxue wouldn't agree. After all, this girl still had a weakness in his hands, and there would be plenty of fun in the future!

Lin Aoxue didn't say anything, silently following Su Rui.

"Hey, Aoxue, don't forget our bet," Su Rui reminded her, deliberately bringing up the sore spot.

Lin Aoxue's steps paused, and she gritted her teeth, "I won't let you get away with it."

"This is your word, willing to accept the bet. Why are you backing out now? Can't handle the loss?" Su Rui said with a smile.

Lin Aoxue wasn't good at arguing with Su Rui, and she was at a disadvantage in this matter. She hardened her heart and decided to be stubborn, "No, no matter what, you can't do that."

"I'm not doing it now, but I might in the future. Let's leave it for now," Su Rui chuckled, "Aoxue, I need to remind you again, when we made the bet, we said 'spank once,' but we didn't specify how many times that 'once' included!"
