And he even said it out loud.
She felt that being a straight man wasn’t enough to describe his weirdness.
Jiang Luoli felt as if she was being lectured by an elder.
“Oh right, Miss Jiang. You haven’t told me. Do you like the room I arranged for you?”
Jiang Luoli was speechless.
She was too tired to speak.
“Mr. Mo, let’s talk when you’re back.” Jiang Luoli felt that she might get a heart attack if she continued chatting with Mo Shixiu. So, she decided to end the conversation. “I’ll wait for you.”
“Alright.” Mo Shixiu said gently, “Let’s have a good chat when we meet. Miss Jiang… see you later.”
“… Mm, see you later.”
Jiang Luoli finally hung up.
Beside her, Sister Lin smiled and asked, “Was it Mister? Is he coming home soon?”
“Mm.” Jiang Luoli nodded and looked at Sister Lin as if she was looking at her daughter-in-law. She blushed and said, “He said he might only be back in 40 minutes.”
“Mister is done with his work and is rushing home now.” Sister Lin covered her mouth and smiled. “I’ve never seen him so enthusiastic before. Indeed, it’s best to have a woman at home. That’s how home feels.”
Jiang Luoli blushed even more.
She looked at Sister Lin’s happy expression and thought that she must have thought that she and Mo Shixiu were already together.
Mo Shixiu’s actions gave others the same illusion.
He had already gotten someone to renovate her room.
In another’s eyes, they were together.
Seeing how happy Sister Lin was, Jiang Luoli couldn’t bear to see her disappointed expression, but she felt that she should make things clear.
She couldn’t let this misunderstanding continue.
She and Mo Shixiu would never be together.
“Aunt Lin.” She hesitated for a moment before deciding to tell Sister Lin the truth. “Actually, Mr. Mo and I aren’t together. We’re just ordinary friends. I won’t be staying here in the future.
“Aunt Lin, don’t misunderstand our relationship.”
“What?” Sister Lin was shocked. “You aren’t with Mister?”
“Mm.” Jiang Luoli liked Sister Lin and couldn’t bear to disappoint her, but she still had to say it. “Aunt Lin, Mr. Mo and I won’t be together. There will definitely be a female owner here in the future, but that person won’t be me.
“So… Aunt Lin, don’t tease me anymore.”
The joy on Sister Lin’s face faded.
She didn’t think Jiang Luoli was joking. “B-But Mister said that Miss Jiang will move in.”
They were already living together, but they weren’t together?
Sister Lin couldn’t understand.
“I didn’t agree to move in with him.” Jiang Luoli rubbed her temple and looked a little helpless. “He was the one who got someone to move my things away. He was the one who wanted to renovate the room. I didn’t agree with it.”
Sister Lin widened her eyes in shock.
“Miss Jiang, you mean Sir forced you?”
“Not really. But, he also didn’t ask for my permission.”
Sister Lin maintained her stunned expression. After a while, she murmured, “Mister actually forced a girl. This is too shocking.”
