The main gate was completely sealed, making it impossible to observe the outside through any gaps.
Ye Jingmo said in a deep voice, "Go to the study on the second floor and check the surveillance video."
Jiang Li followed closely behind Ye Jingmo.
Upon opening the surveillance footage, a woman was standing at the door.
Her clothes were dirty and tattered, with visible patches and seams. Her face showed panic, and she kept glancing back.
It seems they are checking to see if there are any pursuers behind them.
She cried and screamed intermittently, and kicked the door with her feet, like a mentally ill person going mad.
Jiang Li felt that this woman was very strange.
She couldn't quite put her finger on what was wrong.
Ye Jingmo's well-defined fingers hovered over a spot on the computer screen.
"look here."
Jiang Li looked closely and then discovered that there was a person standing in the shadows.
A tall and imposing man.
The muscles in his arms bulged with veins, and his thighs were as thick as elephant legs.
It's no exaggeration to say that he could kick a person away with one kick.
"This person is a trained fighter."
Ye Jingmo's eyes held a hidden coldness, and his posture and mannerisms suggested he had undergone some training.
And he may have killed people on his hands.
"So, is this a honey trap?"
Jiang Li sat on the stool, a strange look flashing in her eyes.
No, is it possible that anyone would actually fall for such a clumsy trick?
She couldn't believe that such foolish people still existed in the apocalypse.
This is like believing in a scam where a rich woman offers a large sum of money to have a child.
What benefits would there be in opening the door and saving this woman?
Simple and kind-hearted?!
Jiang Li thought it was impossible; people without cunning would hardly survive in the early stages of a natural disaster.
A sudden realization dawned on her, and she finally understood what was wrong.
Although the woman's clothes were tattered, they were very tight, highlighting her curvaceous figure.
Looking closely at her face, she appears young and innocent, giving the impression of an angelic face with a devilish figure.
Jiang Li thought of the fact that some houses in the villa area had their main gates not sealed off, but rather iron gates with railings.
You can see the outside scene clearly.
Jiang Li propped her head up with one hand, having formed a rough guess in her mind.
Moreover, they cleverly chose to act during the day.
Most people choose to do this kind of thing at night, thinking that it's dark and windy.
However, there are patrol teams in the villa area at night, and everyone keeps their doors and windows tightly closed.
On the contrary, everyone thought that the bandits wouldn't be so bold as to act in broad daylight.
It must be said that Jiang Li's imagination basically restored part of the truth.
After several minutes of no one answering or opening the door, the woman outside seemed to have run out of energy from shouting and turned away with resentment in her eyes.
She knew this family must be quite wealthy, judging by the reinforced gate, the electric fence surrounding the house, and the large wolfhound they had heard they owned.
That dog alone could feed someone for several meals.
But the people inside weren't fooled.
She went into the shadows and met up with the muscular man.
Jiang Li could only see their lips moving from the surveillance footage, but she couldn't tell what they were saying.
The two parted ways at a distance, as if they were going to find new homes.
"Send a message to Zhou Tiantong and have him notify the nearby soldiers to come and investigate."
Ye Jingmo stared at the two people on the monitor until their figures disappeared from view.
Jiang Li called Zhou Tian and told him everything that had just happened.
Zhou Tian frowned upon hearing this.
"Okay, I'll have someone go check it out. Thank you for letting me know."
After hanging up the call, Zhou Tian immediately ordered a team of soldiers to go to the villa area to check the situation.
The fact that the houses in the villa area did not collapse during the earthquake made the residents of the villas targets for some malicious individuals.
After all, who doesn't stock up on some things after acid rain?
Other high-rise buildings are buried under the ruins and need to be excavated to be retrieved, which carries a high risk.
Why not try to get into the villa and steal their food? Wouldn't that be easier than digging?
Jiang Li immediately called Qin Yue, warning her not to open the door if anyone came for help or for any other reason, as they might be robbers.
Qin Yue: "I understand, thank you, Sister Jiang Li."
Jiang Li hung up the call and turned her head to talk to Ye Jingmo.
Just then, Ye Jingmo bent down to grab the mouse on the desk.
Her lips happened to touch his face.
Ye Jingmo felt the soft touch on his face and the moist breath exhaled from Jiang Li's nose.
Time seemed to stand still at that moment.
A blush spread from Jiang Li's cheeks to her ears.
She felt as if her heart was about to jump out of her chest.
Jiang Li leaned back in a panic, her eyes darting around, not daring to look at Ye Jingmo.
She wished she were an ostrich, able to bury her face in the ground.
So shameful.
Jiang Li didn't need to touch her face to know that it must be very hot.
Ye Jingmo smiled faintly, his eyes revealing a mixture of reluctance and joy.
He was very pleased with this coincidence.
He just hoped that next time Jiang Li kissed him, she could choose a place that pleased him.
Seeing Jiang Li's face burning red, Ye Jingmo knew that if he didn't say anything, she would continue like this.
He reached out and gently stroked her head twice, his voice hoarse as he said:
What would you like to eat for lunch?
Knowing that Ye Jingmo was trying to change the subject, Jiang Li tried hard to forget that she had just kissed Ye Jingmo.
"Let's have braised pork ribs and boiled baby bok choy."
Jiang Li quickly recited the names of the dishes, hoping Ye Jingmo would leave as soon as possible to ease the awkward atmosphere.
After waiting for a minute, Jiang Li saw that Ye Jingmo had not left.
After hesitating for a long time, I finally mustered up the courage to ask:
"Brother Mo, why aren't you coming down yet?"
"Did you forget to give me something?"
Ye Jingmo's voice carried an undisguised smile.
Jiang Li was stunned for a few seconds before realizing that she hadn't given the ingredients to Ye Jingmo.
She quickly handed the ingredients to Ye Jingmo, not daring to look up at him the whole time.
Until the sound of the door on the second floor closing was heard.
Jiang Li slumped onto the desk with a thud, burying her head in her arms.
She was too ashamed to face Brother Mo.
Ah ah ah ah ah ah!
Jiang Li's head swayed back and forth in her arms.
The touch of cold skin on the burning face was like the fusion of water and fire, gradually cooling down Jiang Li's feverish head.
The violently beating heart gradually calmed down.
Jiang Li had the thought that she hadn't seen Ye Jingmo all day.
Or you could say you suddenly feel unwell and want to stay in your room to rest?
Jiang Li mentally calculated the feasibility of this idea.
She shook her head again. No, that excuse was too far-fetched.
A person who was perfectly fine just a moment ago suddenly becomes sick the next second. Who are they trying to fool?
Go work on the third floor, let Brother Mo eat first?
No, Brother Mo will definitely come up and help me.
An idea popped into Jiang Li's mind, but the next second, it was rejected.
While she was struggling with her decision, the door was pushed open, and Ye Jingmo stood in the doorway.
"Let's go downstairs for dinner, the food is ready."
Jiang Li turned her head and took a deep breath, silently trying to hypnotize herself.
Pretend that what just happened didn't happen.
Having mentally prepared herself, Jiang Li stood up from the stool.
"This is coming."
