On the way to find Ying Fei.
Nalan Li was still carried back by Duge.
After all.
Xin Tianyang's residence was three kilometers away from Ying Fei's, which was too slow for her to reach on her own.
Although Nalan Li was a special agent and didn't sweat the small stuff, having been carried by Duge twice in a row, she couldn't help but feel an odd sensation in her heart. Occasionally, she cast strange glances toward Duge, and the image of him plucking a flower for her with her own dagger would flash in her mind...
Suspension bridge effect, attraction to the strong?
Nalan Li desperately sought reasons to explain her condition, trying her best not to lean towards having a crush. Given her line of work, she shouldn't be developing feelings, especially for a gamer with ulterior motives.
Eventually.
When Duge set Nalan Li down, she had successfully convinced herself, briefly stabilizing her mindset.
...
Xin Tianyang knocked on Ying Fei's door.
