Mo Li didn't even know what he had eaten. He just felt that the box of food was never going to be finished.
After a moment of daze, he finally managed to shake off the chaotic thoughts and focused on the takeout box.
He noticed that despite eating for quite a while, the box was still full, piled high with various dishes.
Mo Li smiled bitterly.
"Ji Yan, are you trying to stuff me to death?"
Ji Yan continued to eat his meal nonchalantly.
Mumbling, he replied, "Of course. I'm treating you; if you don't eat, wouldn't that make me lose face?"
Even if he wanted to save face, there was no need to force-feed him like this, Mo Li quietly complained.
That night, due to accommodation issues, the two had another argument.
According to Ji Yan, for Mo Li's safety and convenience for the investigation, Mo Li should move in with him.
Mo Li firmly disagreed.
Bringing Ji Yan into her affairs had already greatly deviated from her original intention. How could she move into Ji Yan's house?
What would that mean?
“Mo Li, there must be something suspicious about what happened back then. Don't you want to investigate it thoroughly?”
Ji Yan's tone was filled with threat.
It was as if he was saying that if she didn't comply, he wouldn't help her.
Mo Li refused to back down.
“I never asked for your help. I might be a bit slower on my own, but I believe I can still get to the bottom of it.”
“Alright, I'll take you home.”
Ji Yan had no choice but to concede.
Perhaps he had indeed been too hasty.
He and Mo Li had only known each other for two days; they weren't even familiar yet.
It was strange; why was he so eager to take Mo Li to his home?
Where had the gentlemanly demeanor from yesterday gone?
Ji Yan reflected on his unusual behavior as he drove directly to the building where Mo Li rented an apartment in Jinshang Community.
He unlocked the car door and said, "We're here. Go home and rest well. I'll come pick you up in the morning."
However, he didn't hear Mo Li's response, nor did he hear the sound of the car door opening.
Ji Yan turned his head in confusion and saw Mo Li sitting still in the seat, lips tightly pressed together, staring at him intently.
Ji Yan smiled and teased, "Changed your mind? If you want to move into my place, it's not too late. Go up and grab your luggage."
Mo Li let out a huff through his nose.
