Chapter 329 Could it be a dead rat?
Looking into his sincere and affectionate eyes, Mo Yilan knew she should struggle, but that promise was like quicksand, making her sink deeper the more she tried to struggle.
Seeing that she no longer rejected him so forcefully, Jiang Baishen finally felt a glimmer of hope.
He pulled her arm and walked towards the car that had just been parked.
Mo Yilan was a little confused, not knowing what he was going to do, but she let him lead her away.
Jiang Baishen opened the passenger door, took out the bag inside, and handed it to her.
"Made today."
Jiang Manxi was taken aback, but accepted it.
Jiang Baishen then reluctantly released her wrist. He was afraid she didn't want to face him today, and he wanted to resolve the immediate problem first so that she could feel at ease.
"Well... I'll be going now."
As he spoke, he turned around and was about to walk around the front of the car to the driver's seat.
But this time, it was she who reached out and took his hand.
He turned around in surprise, only to see that she looked as if she had just gone through some kind of struggle, but in the end she took a deep breath, looked up at him and said,
"Let's go upstairs and eat together."
A hint of surprise flashed in Jiang Baishen's eyes, along with a touch of disbelief.
"Really...is it okay?"
Mo Yilan nodded.
At worst, we'll just have a meal together; after all, they're the ones who cooked it.
Anyway, she didn't want to see his lonely figure like that; it felt like needles were pricking her heart.
Then, she took his hand and walked with him toward the apartment lobby.
As she passed the front desk, the property management called her over.
"Miss Mo!"
Mo Yilan turned around and saw the other person running towards her with a very exquisite box in hand.
"I was just about to deliver this to you. This is your local package, please sign for it."
Mo Yilan's heart skipped a beat; without a doubt, this must have been sent by Madam Jiang.
But just looking at this packaging box, it's worth a lot of money. It's impossible that there's a dead rat inside, right?
Could it be a check?
Like in those melodramatic soap operas about wealthy families?
'I'll give you 500 million to leave my son.'
Thinking about this, Mo Yilan even became a little curious about how much money Mrs. Jiang would write on the check.
"Yilan?" Jiang Baishen saw that she was standing still and shook her hand.
Mo Yilan snapped out of her daze, signed the document quickly, took the box, and handed it to Jiang Baishen.
Jiang Baishen looked completely bewildered. "This is..."
Mo Yilan didn't bother to reply and simply pulled him to take the elevator.
The property management staff were absolutely amazed by the sight of the two of them from behind.
"Wow, that's the young master of the Jiang family!!"
"These two are... hehe??"
"Miss Mo is really amazing! She even managed to win over the young master of the Jiang family!"
"I think the young master of the Jiang family is even more impressive. There are always wealthy families, it's always one of them, but a heroine reporter like Miss Mo is rare."
"Haha, that's true."
……
Mo Yilan's excitement was completely ruined by the sudden delivery. Her nerves inevitably tightened again, and the large hand she was holding instantly became a hot potato.
She angrily shook off his hand and crossed her arms.
Jiang Baishen looked innocent and dared not provoke the girl, so he could only look at the package in his hand with a resentful expression.
Damn it, what the hell is this piece of junk?
The next second he saw a familiar English name in the sender's field: Miya Lian
This is……!!
His mom sent it?!
Why? What is his mother trying to do? She's been secretly going to see Yilan behind his back, and sending her strange things...
No wonder she was angry.
Wait a minute! Didn't Reporter Yan just say...?
His mother scalded Yilan with boiling water?
Thinking it over, he quickly pulled Mo Yilan's arm. Mo Yilan was about to step out of the elevator when she was suddenly pulled off balance and ended up in the man's arms.
She looked astonished, but her face was burning hot without her realizing it.
Her movie-obsessed mind hadn't completely faded, so she subconsciously assumed the man was going to force himself on her in the elevator.
While a conditioned reflex wanted to resist, there was also a hint of excitement in my heart.
But when she met the man's eyes, she found that he was just nervously pulling her left and right, looking her up and down.
"What... are you doing?" Mo Yilan asked, her face slightly flushed.
"Where did you get burned? Are you alright?!" Jiang Baishen asked anxiously.
Mo Yilan was taken aback, wondering when she had been burned.
The burning sensation on her tongue reminded her of the time Aunt Jiang had given her a drink from a thermos.
Well, now she believes that Aunt Jiang and Jiang Baishen didn't say this.
After all, even if she did say something, she would only tell him not to associate with her, not that she burned someone else.
That damn Yan Lele! She's such a blabbermouth again!!
"No!!" Mo Yilan broke free from his grasp in frustration and strode out of the elevator.
Seeing that she really didn't have any burns, Jiang Baishen felt a little relieved and quickly followed her.
Once inside, Jiang Baishen was about to open the package.
Mo Yilan, however, looked nervous, as if she wasn't mentally prepared to face it.
"and many more!"
Jiang Baishen turned his head in confusion. "What's wrong?"
"How about... how about you take it home and take it apart..." Mo Yilan said awkwardly.
She really didn't want to face it.
Jiang Baishen looked at her, blinked, and thought for a few seconds. He reached out and took her hand. The warm softness enveloped her again, giving her courage and a sense of security.
"We have to adapt and face things together."
Mo Yilan was startled, and when she looked up, her eyes met his gentle, watery pupils. For a moment, as if captivated, she nodded.
"it is good."
For the first time today, Jiang Baishen showed a genuine smile as he carefully opened the package, bit by bit.
At that moment, Mo Yilan couldn't help but cover her eyes with her hands.
Jiang Baishen glanced at her, then at the two exquisitely packaged high-end jewelry sets inside the express delivery box, along with an extra gift card inlaid with gold foil.
"You...would you like to open your eyes and see..."
Mo Yilan shook her head and asked tentatively,
"What...is that??"
Jiang Baishen found her appearance extremely cute, so he deliberately kept her in suspense.
"you guess."
Hearing him say that, Mo Yilan became increasingly uneasy, and she couldn't help but think of the worst possible outcome.
"Could it be... a dead rat?"
Jiang Baishen frowned in surprise.
What is that??
What exactly did his mother say to Yilan? How could she have left such a terrible impression on her?
"Why don't you open your eyes and take a look?"
Mo Yilan shook her head again, refusing to look no further.
Jiang Baishen had no choice but to take out one of the jewelry boxes and open it to find a set of top-quality Zuma green jewelry.
He took the necklace from inside, went around to Mo Yilan's back, and put it on her.
Suddenly feeling the coldness below her neck, Mo Yilan shuddered and abruptly opened her eyes.
