Chapter 63: The Counterattack of Madam Black Cat (21)
Translator: Guy Gone Bad
During the whole day, Lin Shun felt a bit ill at ease .
Pale face, plus the thick dark circles around the eyes, he looked rather peak and pine .
He had mown for a whole day, which made him even more upset because of the enormous noise .
Not until dusk did he finish his job, mowing the lawn .
He finally caught a breath and put the lawnmower into the shed . After he grabbed a few bites and cleared himself up, he went back to his room .
Sitting on bed for a while, he jumped off the bed suddenly . He lied down by the bed, stretched out a hand for a wooden box under the bed .
He put it on the table, opened it and took out a beautiful stone . He wondered he could have enough money for a lifetime if he sold it .
He comforted himself, thinking, “I will quit a few days later . No one would find out what I did . ”
Knock! Knock!
Someone was knocking on the door .
“Who is it?”
He was startled . As he was asking, he closed the box anxiously and put it back under the bed quickly .

“It’s me, Ji Yue . ”
Li Shun got more nervous on hearing it was him . He quickly swept off the sweats on his forehead and then took a few deep breath trying to make himself look normal as usual .
“Coming . Wait a sec!”
He opened the door and saw Ji Yue with a black cat in his arms . He then asked with a smile, “Mr . Ji, what can I do for you?”
Ji Yue scanned all over him and sensed something different . But he still wore a smile on the surface and asked directly to the point,
“Today I am here to ask a few questions about Xiaomei . ”

“Xiao…Xiaomei?” Li Shun’s fingers holding the door trembled . He tried to explain,
“She and I were not very close . I was mowing the lawn the day she died . So I’m afraid I don’t know a lot about her death . And I already told you everything I know that day . ”
“I know . ” Ji Yue nodded and continued, “Someone told me yesterday that Xiaomei was pushed off the roof by a man in black . I remembered that you wore a black outfit that day . ”
“Mr . Ji, you must be mistaken . I wore a gray coat, not a black one . ” Li Shun raised his voice and argued .
Obviously he was kind of emotionally out of control .
Ji Yue cast a glance at him and got right to the point, “Stop pretending . You killed Xiaomei and I have evidence . ”

Speaking of which, he took a bottle out of his pocket .
When Li Shun saw the bottle, he was mortified with his eyes wide open . He shoveled Ji Yue away and ran away instantly .
“Meow!” He wants to escape!
Xia Liang hopped off Ji Yue’s arm and dashed forward onto Li Shun’s shoulder, scratched his face with her sharp paw right away .
“Ah!” Li Shun didn’t expect that this black cat could be so tough . His face bled due to the scratch . He was outraged because of the pain . He grabbed the little black cat and tried to throw her on the ground .
“Liang!”
Ji Yue shouted with worries . He ran toward quickly and directly threw himself at Li Shun .
