Chapter 266: I’ll Be Returning to Hai City Tomorrow, You Won’t Even Let Me Eat You Up Tonight?
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Ji Nuan was startled and took a subconscious step back. The man caught her movement, and decisively held her waist. Under the envious and teasing gazes of the employees, he brought her into the changing room.
After he closed the door, a familiar scent suddenly filled her surroundings. Ji Nuan reflexively backed away. By the time she reacted, the man’s tall body had already pressed her against the door of the fitting room.
Although the space was big, there were only the two of them right now. Ji Nuan strangely felt her face burning. Her eyes searched her surroundings, checking to see if there were surveillance cameras installed.
“Why did you come in? I need to change my clothes first…”
The man’s fingers spread across her back. Looking into her eyes, he pressed a kiss on her lips.
Ji Nuan: “???”
“You’re too beautiful. Let me kiss you first.” The man spoke huskily by her lips.
Ji Nuan: “…”
…
They get into the car, drove home, and entered through the doors.
Before the living room lights were even turned on, Mo Jingshen held her cheek with one hand and leaned down to give her a deep kiss. They continued the activities he had to restrain himself from completing in the changing room.
After kissing for a while, Ji Nuan reached out and pressed a hand against his chest. She borrowed a small gap between their lips to breathe. However, a second later, the man was holding her against the wall. He kissed the edge of her lips. His ink-black eyes were boundlessly dark as he moved, as though to swallow her whole: “You’re still moving away?”
Ji Nuan blinked. “Why do I feel that, because you’re returning to Hai City tomorrow night, you’re especially rushed today. It’s as though you’re about to charge into war.”
In the past, Mo Jingshen was always exceptionally patient with her. He would always give her time to be ready.
However, right now…
After changing out of the gown, she was forcefully brought out of the shop, forcibly brought onto the car, and after returning home, she was vigorously pressed against the wall…
Mo Jingshen lowered his eyes to watch her, calmly speaking, “You’re right. I do plan on charging into war. I’ll be returning to Hai City tomorrow night; you won’t even let me eat you up tonight?”
Ji Nuan: “…Isn’t that way too cruel? You treated me to dinner, accompanied me to shop, and after bringing me home, you’re being so direct. I almost suspect that I’m not your wife but the lover on the side that you rarely have the chance to meet.”
The man chuckled with his low, husky voice. Ignoring her words, he reached directly toward her waist and smoothly tugged down the zipper of her skirt.
Ji Nuan frantically reached to hold his hand down. His pace of ‘charging forward without any foreplay’ startled her into turning scarlet red. “Mo Jingshen!”
He leaned down to kiss her face, chuckling huskily: “Earlier at the changing room, you were clearly struggling to bear it. Now that we’re home, do you really need me to tease you again?”
“…”
“Aren’t you already ready?”
This man!
Ji Nuan felt as though something had exploded in her brain. She cried out with a red face: “Mo Jingshen, shut your mouth! Earlier, I was in a hurry to change out of the gown. That’s why I didn’t…”
Before she could finish her words, her skirt was already tugged off. The man raised his arm and tossed her skirt aside; it landed on the carpet slightly away from the sofa.
Afterward, he pushed her toward his embrace. The moment their lower bodies were pressed together, she clearly felt that he was truly in the state to ‘charge into war’…
Ji Nuan: “…”
Why did she use to think that this man was quiet and dispassionate?
His dispassion was only a mask used to fool observers!
The man’s hand then came to tug at her blouse. Ji Nuan rushed to hold onto his hand with a tight grip.
Mo Jingshen narrowed his eyes. His husky voice was low as he coaxed against her ear, “Let go, en?”
Ji Nuan raised her eyes. She looked at his handsome, distinct face and his ink-black, seductive eyes. The focused, burning passion, as well as the rare hint of urgency in his gaze, suddenly brought Ji Nuan an inexplicable sense of achievement.
For a man like him to lose control, aside from the effect of physical urges, it was also because, as he had previously mentioned, she was someone he loved very much. His feelings were deep to the point where the words ‘Mrs. Mo’ could not sufficiently express them well.
He belonged only to her.
The moment this thought came to her mind, Ji Nuan instinctively stood on her tiptoes to kiss him.
In that instant, the man, who had originally planned on removing her clothes, first gave up this brief tug-of-war. Without any hesitation, he brought her into a princess carry. When Ji Nuan released a soft cry, he leaned down and held her lips. He charged directly into the bedroom and placed her onto the large, soft bed.
Little kisses moved toward her ear. A low, husky voice laced with suppressed desire said by her ear: “Earlier at that fitting room, you have no idea how much restraint I had to use to keep from tearing that gown off of you and taking you right there and then.”
Ji Nuan did not understand exactly how beautiful she had been in that dress, and exactly how much she had pushed him into losing control. However, at this moment, her instincts told her that she would most likely die under him tonight. Even if she didn’t die, she would lose at least half of her life.
—-
For Mo Jingshen, the approaching separation could be as short as a week, or as long as a month. Regardless, Ji Nuan was doomed to be tortured late into the night.
With this man’s strength, whenever he decided not to let her off easily, he would drive her hoarse with her cries.
Yet, whenever she released hoarse cries, he was always able to continue bullying her with renewed strength.
Consequently, she could only shift her sweat-soaked face away and bite onto her lips weakly to hold in the cries that wanted to escape. If she were to provoke him, over and over again, there would really be no rest for her tonight.
Deep into the night, Ji Nuan’s strength was completely used up. She could not even lift her arm. The man carried her into the bathroom to wash up and helped her into a comfortable sleeping gown.
He slept by her side, holding her to sleep.
Ji Nuan burrowed into his arms. Although she was unable to open her eyes due to exhaustion, her hands still held onto his arms tightly. She opened her eyes slightly, watching his focused face.
The man’s lips were attractive, his nose straight and tall, and his brows the perfect thickness. Upon careful look, his eyelashes were slightly longer than most women. His expression appeared indolent after their earlier, satiating activity, while his body gave off the scent of the same body soap as hers.
Sensing her gaze, Mo Jingshen gently rubbed the back of her head. He knew that she was tired but could not bear sleeping. After all, although he was only heading back tomorrow night, she had classes in the morning. This meant that they would be separating in the morning.
His gentle caress led Ji Nuan to lose her last hold on consciousness; she closed her eyes and fell asleep.
She found that she was really becoming more infatuated with this man, and less capable of enduring even a day of separation from him. Was she really becoming too spoiled?
Chapter 267: If You’re Going to Be This Unrestrained, from Now On, I Really Won’t Sleep with You Again
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Mo Jingshen still had a lot of work he needed to complete; there were quite some loose ends left to settle before he could go. Naturally, he woke early.
When he opened his eyes, the first thing he saw was the fair and clear face of the little woman leaning against his chest. The little woman’s eyes were closed, and her seaweed-like hair was spread across the pillow; drowsy yet beautiful.
She slept very deeply and was completely defenseless.
The man pressed his elbow against the bed and supported himself with his palm to watch her for a moment. All of a sudden, he leaned down and kissed her; unlike his usual, delicate and soft morning kisses, this was a harsh, deep kiss that took away all of her air and forced her into an abrupt awakening.
Ji Nuan was startled awake. Her eyes quickly snapped open. From last night until now, it hadn’t been easy for her to fall into a deep sleep. Now that she was abruptly awoken by this man, her expression was completely dumbstruck, and she was at lost as to what had actually happened.
When the drowsiness in her eyes faded away, she met the man’s smiling gaze and heard his low, heavy, and lazy voice say, “I’m going to work now. I’ll be leaving directly tonight, and I won’t be stopping by T University to see you. En?”
Sensing that he had intentionally awoken her, Ji Nuan knitted her brows due to her aching body. As though she was unwilling to hear him speak about his departure and frustrated from being awakened, she said unhappily, “Are you trying to keep me from sleeping? You’re so frustrating. Go back to Hai City already and let me sleep well. In the future, I don’t want to sleep with you again…”
Mo Jingshen watched her prickly appearance and felt like bullying her. After hearing her last words, his distant, black pupils instantly narrowed dangerously: “Repeat those words again?”
Not only did he wake her up, but he was also being fierce to her now?
Ji Nuan pushed him in frustration: “I don’t want to sleep with you again. I won’t sleep with you again!”
The man lowered his eyes to watch her, his thin lips curving into a dangerous smile. His morning, husky voice was especially low. “You won’t sleep with me again?”
His tone was clearly threatening.
“I won’t… uu!”
Before she could finish her words, the man caught her lips in a kiss.
The man shifted and leaned over her body, covering her. He held her face and pressed a harsh, deep kiss on her. As her hands moved to push against his chest, he caught them both single-handedly and held them above her head.
Ji Nuan frantically opened her eyes as all of her air was stolen from her. Her lips were captured, and she could only whimper. Finally, as the man bit against her lip, she rushed to speak with the small space she was allowed. “Mo Jing… uu…”
The man sealed her lips once more. After torturing her well, he licked her reddened lips. From above, he lazily watched the exceptionally helpless woman underneath him. His lips curved slightly. “Are you sure you won’t sleep with me? Even after you return to Hai City?”
Earlier, Ji Nuan had been frustrated due to awakening and had spoken in anger. She now wondered how she had never noticed that the man had such a mean side to him.
His words clearly meant that there was no need for her to sleep from now on then.
After a whole night of torture, he was still not satiated. Wasn’t he afraid of kidney deficiency?
Ji Nuan felt the urge to fearlessly insist that she wasn’t, even after returning to Hai City, going to sleep him with him. She wanted to keep him here so that he would miss his flight tonight, and to stop him from returning to Hai City.
Before she could court disaster, the moment she managed the free her hands, the man bit down on her finger. His burning palm landed against her aching waist as he spoke lowly against her lips, with no intention of allowing her to proceed: “After we return, if you dare to stop me from sleeping with you, I’ll keep you in my bed even if I have to tie you down.”
Ji Nuan was weak: “Must you use up even the last of my energy…”
The man chuckled softly and kissed her; his hands did not pause in their exploration.
She moaned slightly. Her brows knitted as she tried her best to shift her legs apart, acceding to his demand to leave his final imprint on her body before his return to Hai City.
At dawn, the gaps between the curtains allowed the morning rays to peer into their room gradually. In the quiet condo, only Ji Nuan’s soft begging and cries could be heard…
—-
Finally, Ji Nuan laid completely unmoving on the bed. She was thoroughly exhausted.
She opened her eyes slightly to watch the man for several seconds. She was dazed.
When she came to herself, she struggled to tug her hand out from his. She bit on her lip, saying, “If you’re going to be this unrestrained from now on, I really won’t sleep with you again!”
The man’s lips curved up slightly. He pinched her cheek tenderly and did not continue kissing her deeply. Instead, he gave her a light, gentle kiss. “Be obedient, continue sleeping.”
After speaking, he sat up and adequately placed the blankets over her.
When the man finally got off the bed, the woman on the bed tugged his hand back.
He turned back, lowering his head to look at her.
The sunlight peeking through the curtains landed on the tall man, giving him a golden glow. He appeared like a handsome god.
“After you return to Hai City, remember to call me when you’re free. I don’t know when you’re busy and when you’re having meetings; how am I supposed to call you.”
Mo Jingshen watched her spoiled appearance and smiled. His tone was doting and indulgent as he replied, “I understand.”
Unable to resist the urge, he pinched her cheek once more. He then adjusted the curtains to cover the sunlight fully, in case it disturbed her sleep.
—-
The consequence of being thoroughly exhausted was that by the time Ji Nuan awoke, it was noon.
Mo Jingshen had prepared breakfast for her before he left and kept it warm so that she could have it the moment she woke up.
After washing up, Ji Nuan brought her breakfast out. As she sat by the dining table to eat, she felt her legs trembling from the ache.
Why did she have to bring up those provoking words in the morning to challenge him?
She had known that, since he was returning to Hai City today, he would definitely use every method available to eat her up thoroughly. Her actions this morning was basically asking to serve herself up on a silver platter!
From the start, Mo Jingshen had been intentionally seducing her, and she actually allowed him to do as he wished.
After finishing her food, Ji Nuan stood up and brought the cutlery back to the kitchen. As she opened the dishwasher, her phone rang.
She quickly washed her hands and wiped it clean before stepping out. When she saw that it was a call from Feng Ling, she immediately answered.
Chapter 268: Mo Jingshen, This Man, Was Truly Cunning and Full of Schemes!
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Half an hour later, Ji Nuan came downstairs.
Feng Ling was already waiting for her.
“Mrs. Mo.” Feng Ling approached. “Mr. Mo is leaving today?”
“En.”
“All right. Then from today onward, I’ll continue accompanying you at T University.”
“Are the wounds on your elbow fully healed?”
“They had healed a while ago. It’s fine. President Mo wouldn’t have been at ease with me by your side if I still had problems.”
On their way to T University, Ji Nuan casually said, “I noticed that you trimmed your hair. It was actually quite nice when it was grown out slightly. You trimmed it so short, those who don’t know might think that the person by my side isn’t a female bodyguard, but a handsome little boy with beautiful skin.”
“Isn’t this exactly President Mo’s wish? If it appears that there is a handsome boy by your side, who would dare to approach you carelessly.” Feng Ling chuckled lightly.
“…It was fine when you didn’t mention it, but now that you’ve brought it up, I can’t help but suspect if this was his exact intentions when he assigned you by my side.” Ji Nuan pursed her lips.
“Otherwise, why would he have me follow you all the way to T City?” Feng Ling lifted her brows slightly.
“…”
Mo Jingshen, this man, was truly cunning and full of schemes!
…
At night, Ji Nuan left T University and returned to the condo. This was her first night alone after Mo Jingshen’s return. After having his company for more than half a month, she was suddenly unable to adjust.
The kitchen was empty. The silhouette of Boss Mo who returned on time every day to cook personally for her was absent. He, who was used to holding her on the sofa, was nowhere to be found. Even the bed had no sign of him.
Only the bathroom had a razor left behind by the man. It was placed neatly in the cabinet, as though waiting for its owner’s return.
It was only the first night, and she had already begun to miss Mo Jingshen. How could this be?
In less than two days, Sheng Yihan’s car appeared and blocked Ji Nuan right at T University’s entrance.
When Sheng Yihan’s car appeared, Feng Ling immediately tugged Ji Nuan behind her. Her gaze was cold like knives as she watched the man’s face through the car windows.
“So cold?” Sheng Yihan sat in the car. His gaze scanned the two of them and finally landed on Ji Nuan’s composed expression.
Ji Nuan was expressionless as she watched him. “Does the Sheng Family have a lot of free time that you can come to T City to be an eyesore whenever you feel like it? Didn’t you bring Ji Mengran away a while ago? Now that she’s gone missing, rather than feigning sympathy, why have you come to look for me?”
Hearing the ridicule in her tone, Sheng Yihan coldly and indifferently said, “Ji Nuan.”
Ji Nuan raised her brows: “Please address me as Miss Ji or Mrs. Mo. I’m not familiar with you.”
The man coldly spoke, “Since you’re unable to let go of what happened years ago, I won’t force you to move on from it. My only question is, regarding the case of the Sheng Group’s Hong Kong shares being suddenly suppressed by the Mo Corporation, was it done on your request or was it single-handedly done by Mo Jingshen?”
Hearing this, Ji Nuan watched him and spoke casually and naturally: “Do you really need me to give you the answer? Do you think Mo Jingshen would have the time to shift his focus onto a secondary company like Sheng Group? It was naturally done because I find you displeasing to my eyes.”
Sheng Yihan gave a cold, mocking smile: “This isn’t the first day that Mo Jingshen is suppressing the Sheng Group. Did you think that he would wait for your request to act upon me? It’s only that he has begun to interfere even with our shares recently. I suppose you’re right. Without your involvement, there is no way he would put so much thought into controlling the Sheng Group’s lifeline.”
Ji Nuan gently pushed Feng Ling, who was standing before her, aside. She was quiet for a moment before speaking: “Since you already know of this, why did you come to ask? His actions and my intentions will not differ.”
“Ji Nuan.” As he spoke these two words, his tone was sharp. “Do you plan on always maintaining such an attitude when you speak to me?”
“How else would I speak to you? Mr. Sheng, who do you think you are? Do I need to be polite to you? As someone who used to hold that sort of role in my life, do you expect me to behave like a saint and express my forgiveness for you? I’m sure that I’ve always expressed such an attitude, and my stand has always been clear.”
Sheng Yihan suddenly chuckled. His smile was mild, but the corner of his lips carried dense frigid intent. After a moment, he concealed it.
Ji Nuan smiled on the surface as well, but her eyes did not contain any smiling intent. “Must I make things even more clear? Although I was young back then, I know that you weren’t as drunk as you made yourself appear.”
Neglecting the man’s sudden gaze, Ji Nuan turned and walked away.
Sheng Yihan did not follow them. The silver car was parked outside T University’s gates for a long time, unmoving.
—-
The three months of classes at T University were finally approaching its end.
T University’s one-hundredth anniversary celebration was only three days away. On this day, the school’s internet service suddenly met with a problem. Both the students’ mobile data purchased from private companies and the school’s wireless data were down.
Ji Nuan only found out that night that someone had anonymously posted the photos of Ji Nuan and Mo Jingshen taken from that day. Although the account was taken down within five minutes, to prevent this gossip from spreading, Mo Jingshen, who was all the way in Hai City, had actually ordered someone to seal away all the internet services at T University for a day.
The photos were actually not q big deal. There were only shots of Ji Nuan alighting from Mo Jingshen’s car, and of the two of them dining in the restaurant near Mo Corporation’s office. There was nothing scandalous captured.
However, the content written beneath the photos was extremely unbearable to look at. Through groundless accusations and conjectures, the person who posted the photos used words like ‘prostitute,’ ‘seduce,’ ‘shameless,’ ‘third party,’ ‘dirty,’ ‘greedy for money,’ and many other adjectives to describe Ji Nuan.
After investigating the source of the photos, Feng Ling brought those photos and charged into their dorm room. Ling Feifei had only just entered. If she hadn’t moved away in time, her waist would have been broken by Feng Ling’s kick.
“Ah! What are you doing!?” Watching Feng Ling, who had directly slammed her leg out toward her, Ling Feifei was frightened into jumping away.
“What am I doing? You’ll find out soon.”
With a cold smile, Feng Ling grabbed hold of Ling Feifei’s hair. As Ling Feifei released a sharp cry of pain, she hauled her with force toward the side. She stretched her other hand out and with a single tug, she removed Ling Feifei’s bedsheets. All of the things on her bed slipped off onto the ground.
“Ah—”
Ji Nuan had only just entered the room to hear an incessant, blood-curling shriek. The moment she raised her eyes, she saw the following scene:
Feng Ling’s expression was cold as she stepped on Ling Feifei’s things on the ground. She tossed through her phone and her skincare products and finally found an SD card hidden under Ling Feifei’s pillow. She picked up the SD card and pushed Ling Feifei harshly against the corner of the room.
Chapter 269: Ling Feifei Was Flabbergasted. How Could Ji Nuan Be Mrs. Mo?!
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
“Feng Ling! If I don’t sue you to the point where eighteen generations of your ancestors are crying with you, my name isn’t Ling Feifei!”
Ling Feifei’s face was red with anger. Before she could be upset about the things trampled on the ground, she saw Feng Ling keep the SD card away. She raised shouted loudly, “It won’t change anything even if you take the memory card away! Ji Nuan is so shameless; is she afraid now that these photos exist? Did you think I wouldn’t have spare copies prepared? The school internet won’t be down forever. Even if I can’t share it online, unless you kill me, I’m still able to share this with my mouth!”
Feng Ling abruptly slammed her leg against the back of her knees. Ling Feifei was forced into kneeling down from the pain. Her expression was pale as she stared up at her in disbelief.
“Do you think killing you is hard?”
“You… aren’t you afraid of going to jail?”
“I’m afraid the one who needs to consider if she will be jailed isn’t Feng Ling.” After watching for a while, Ji Nuan approached. Her tone was cold, indifferent, and composed. “Online defamation, although the law has yet to be clearly defined, it is already considered a crime under our legal system. Based on those photos and the content you posted today, as long as I don’t wish to let you off, you’ll definitely have your opportunity to sit behind bars.”
“Then what about seducing a married man and being a third party in someone else’s relationship?” Ling Feifei raised her eyes to glare at Ji Nuan: “You must be proud of sleeping with a man like President Mo, aren’t you? Even though you know that he is married, you were still shameless enough to stick to him. Isn’t it too late to be afraid that this will spread? Ji Nuan, don’t think that you’ll be able to keep your heart at ease while sleeping with him!”
Ji Nuan watched her widened, glaring eyes. Seeing the way she was acting, as though she hadn’t gone mad from jealousy while pointing out someone else’s mistake from a superior moral standing, Ji Nuan sneered. “I’m really sorry about this. It isn’t recent news that Mo Jingshen and I are sleeping together. We’ve been sleeping together for a long time. We sleep together every night, wake up together every morning, and have breakfast together all the time. My heart is indeed very much at ease.”
Ling Feifei’s eyes widened as she stared at her in disbelief. Several seconds later, she said, “That’s impossible!”
She refused to believe it!
Ji Nuan spoke as though she had known President Mo from a long time ago, and that this relationship hadn’t started in T City.
How was this possible?
Ji Nuan had clearly mentioned that she had never come into prior contact with Mo Corporation. How could she and President Mo…
Ji Nuan must have brought this up to scare her because she had a guilty conscience and was worried that she would spread this around.
Watching Ji Nuan’s exquisite, elegant, and flawless face, Ling Feifei despised her even more.
Although Ji Nuan was beautiful, Ling Feifei refused to believe that someone like President Mo would truly like her and would even maintain this sort of long-term relationship with her. Furthermore, Ling Feifei had heard that President Mo’s love life was spotless. He had never had a scandal with anyone.
Watching her, Ji Nuan’s lips curved into an indolent smile. “Impossible? What’s impossible? Did you think that Hai City is such an amazing place that there is no room for me? Or that there is no room for me on Mo Jingshen’s bed? Is this upright gentleman not allowed to have regular bed activities? Did you think that he would only love someone mentally, and wouldn’t need any women to sleep with?”
Ling Feifei’s face had swelled from her words. It wasn’t clear if it was from anger or jealousy. “You are even able to say such shameless words. Ji Nuan, exactly how despicable are you. To be able to cling onto President Mo, you…”
Although Ji Nuan had long grown tired of her and did not wish to pay her any mind, those photos and slanderous words had thoroughly provoked her.
The smile on Ji Nuan’s lips deepened. She spoke lightly, “When it comes to being despicable, how can I possibly compete against Miss Ling? You took the initiative to run to the backstage of the sports hall to look for him. Afterward, because you couldn’t put your own face down, you hauled me over and borrowed the excuse of me being an Hai City local to become close with him. Those little desires of yours were never able to come to fruition. You weren’t able to touch even the sleeves of his shirt. Afterward, when you realized I slept with him, you immediately went mad with anger and tried to ruin me.”
“But so what if you’re angry now? You’re still unable to gain even an extra look from him. Let me warn you. It’s fine if you wish to hop around me like a flea, as you usually do. But you better don’t try to hang around him. Let’s not talk about whether or not you’ll even have the opportunity to do so. Don’t even hold the desire to do it in your heart. Otherwise, you’ll only disgust me. I’ll feel frustrated whenever I see you.”
Ling Feifei’s complexion gradually worsened. By the time Ji Nuan was done speaking, her hands were trembling from anger.
“Ji Nuan, all you managed to do was to climb onto his bed. But how many times could he possibly sleep with you? President Mo should have already left T City. Now that he has left, what do you count for? If it wasn’t for Feng Ling, what basis does a shameless third party like you have to bully me?”
Hearing this, Ji Nuan abruptly sneered. “I really admire that ‘refusing to give up until you smash into a dead-end’ personality of yours.”
Ling Feifei refused to give up and tried to stand. Feng Ling’s leg slammed against her knees once more, forcing Ling Feifei onto her butt in pain.
“Moron, do you know who I am?” Feng Ling coldly reprimanded.
“Why would I care who you are?” Ling Feifei’s eyes reddened in pain as she glared at her.
Feng Ling coldly raised her brows. “I am Mrs. Mo’s personal bodyguard.”
“Ha, I knew that someone like you would be doomed to be a bodyguard, unable to show your face to anyone. A personal bodyguard? Ah, what Mrs. Mo…” Ling Feifei was about to continue mocking her when her expression abruptly ashened as she comprehended Feng Ling’s identity, and the so-called Mrs. Mo she spoke of.
Personal bodyguard?
Mrs. Mo?
From the beginning, Feng Ling has always been protecting Ji Nuan without batting an eyelid. Any small or big matter, as long as it involved Ji Nuan, Feng Ling would always be present.
Ling Feifei sat stiffly on the ground and raised her head toward Ji Nuan. Ji Nuan’s gaze was unhurried and relaxed as it met hers.
In an instant, she felt humiliated and wronged. Ling Feifei sucked in a deep breath, exclaiming with reddened eyes, “You’re lying!”
How could Ji Nuan be Mrs. Mo!
However, as she thought about it carefully, she realized that from the moment Mo Jingshen appeared, he had singled out Ji Nuan’s position in the sports hall. Afterward, because of Ji Nuan, he went to T University’s cafeteria. When Ji Nuan was choked by the salted fish, he handed his water to her, too. His movements were so natural then. Furthermore, everything that happened after…
Ling Feifei looked toward Feng Ling, searching for the right answer. Feng Ling only returned a cold glance.
She appeared as though she was looking at a laughingstock.
She then turned toward Bai Wei, who had been silently sitting on her bed from the beginning. Bai Wei was typically the most clear-minded of them all. She felt that Bai Wei would definitely agree that Ji Nuan was lying.
Chapter 270: An Ink-Black Suit Cuff, And an Empty Wine Glass
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
After receiving Ling Feifei’s look, Bai Wei finally spoke up: “I don’t know much about Ji Nuan and President Mo’s relationship. But Ji Nuan is the young lady of Hai City’s Ji Group. You should have known this since the incident that occurred at the Ji family’s department store, but you kept bashing your head against a brick wall and refusing to believe it.”
A sudden thunderbolt fell from the sky.
Ling Feifei stood still as she sat on the ground. Her stiff gaze fixated on Ji Nuan for a long time, looking at this Ji Nuan whom she had always assumed was the owner of a small studio.
Ji Nuan tilted her head slightly, speaking languidly and indolently, “Speaking of which, Miss Ling, since you’ve always looked down on others, I cooperated with that meaningless, proud and arrogant side of yours. In the past two months, I’ve never attempted to climb on top of your head. Now that we’re coming to the end of the third month, and are all about to toss this all aside, you still insist on slamming yourself toward the muzzle of my gun. Just based on those made-up stories and opinions of yours, as well as those photos, I’m able to sue you anytime I want.”
Blood was rushing toward Ling Feifei’s head from the anger. “You… I don’t care if you’re really a third party or a fake wealthy lady. You are in the wrong for instructing your bodyguard to harm your roommate! If you want to sue me, so be it! We’ll sue each other! Don’t even think about taking advantage of me!”
“Do you have any advantage worth my taking? Even if I let my bodyguard touch you, I first tried to reason with you. What about you? Did I let you take photos of me, or did I beg you to stalk me? You were able to come up with such a colorful story over a simple photo of us having a meal. Your imagination sure is rich! I’ve never targeted you. Being stuck-up and looking down on others is a problem of your own character. There is also no need for me to waste my effort to correct your mindset. In these past two months, you kept stirring up trouble. You even brought these photos to create lies on the internet. I’ve let you go countless times. These consequences you are facing now are entirely of your own making, do you understand?”
Ji Nuan paused for several seconds, before the curve on her lips deepened. “Furthermore, you kept insisting that I interfered in Mo Jingshen’s marriage, but it turns out that you don’t even know who I am. Don’t you find yourself ridiculous?
Ling Feifei’s lips moved. As she met Ji Nuan’s cold, indifferent gaze, she considered why someone like Mo Jingshen, who was entirely unrelated to the education industry, would suddenly come to T University. She appeared to finally understand.
Her bottom lip had turned white from the force with which she was biting it. She wanted to say something, but was unable to make any sound, and could only sit in the corner of the dorm room with reddened eyes while appearing wronged.
She wanted to insist that she did not believe Ji Nuan to be President Mo’s wife, but was unable to say it.
Feng Ling tossed her a glance, as though to say, ‘serve you right.’ She then tossed the SD card toward Ji Nuan.
“You said that there are still copies of these photos, didn’t you?” Ji Nuan asked. “Then Feng Ling and I shan’t stand on ceremony. We’ll help ourselves to your laptop and your other electronics here.”
“There aren’t any more copies. The only copy is in that SD card…” Ling Feifei choked, but her gaze timidly flitted toward Ji Nuan.
Ji Nuan directly snapped the SD card into half and sent Feng Ling a look. Feng Ling immediately picked Ling Feifei’s laptop up. Ling Feifei stood up to snatch it back, but the pain in her knees sent her stumbling back onto the ground. She watched as Feng Ling opened and searched through her laptop. After confirming that those photos had already been deleted because of Ling Feifei’s guilty conscience, she returned the laptop to its original state and tossed it back onto her bed. This issue was finally then settled.
…
Although on Ling Feifei’s end, this issue was concluded, in the five minutes that the post existed on the school’s forum, several people had seen it. In the past two days, many female students discussed this issue privately.
Two days later, it was T University’s one-hundred-year anniversary celebration. Aside from the university’s school leaders and lecturers, there were also many renowned celebrities from the academic world. This scene could be described as extremely grand.
Ling Feifei did not dare to provoke Ji Nuan again and had even moved out of the dormitory. On this evening, she wore a gown and stood with the other female students from Professor Lin’s class. They were standing very far away.
When she saw Ji Nuan, Bai Wei, and Feng Ling entering together, her gaze only shifted toward them once. Ji Nuan was dressed in a gown adorned with gold and appeared low profile and beautiful. All of it proved that Ji Nuan was indeed not just the owner of a small studio as she had thought. Ling Feifei could only keep her anger suppressed in her heart and did not dare to approach them.
However, there were already several female students quietly discussing if Ji Nuan was really being kept by President Mo as a mistress. No matter what, her reputation was no longer as clean.
When Ji Nuan first showed up, their quiet whispers became softer. However, it did not stop them from standing in their groups of three or five. They spread the word amongst themselves and, gradually, the untruthful rumors began to sound like facts. Their gazes on Ji Nuan were full of disdain, suspicion, and contempt.
Since today’s focus was T University’s one-hundredth anniversary, the moment the celebration began, all of the students quietened down in the large and glamorous venue. Finally, when the school leaders finished their speeches and the evening wine reception began, Bai Wei, Ji Nuan, and Feng Ling moved to a quiet corner next to the staircase to sip on their champagne and chat.
All of a sudden, Xu Yao, who was rather close to Ling Feifei, passed by. She tilted her wine glass and poured it toward Ji Nuan’s beautiful gown.
Thankfully, Feng Ling’s hands were nimble. She quickly tugged Ji Nuan to the side and did not allow her gown to be dirtied. She turned her cold eyes onto Xu Yao. “You’re looking for death?”
“Aiyo, my hand accidentally slipped. The wine didn’t even touch her, and this Ji Third Party isn’t even upset, why are you upset?”
Clearly, Ling Feifei had been unable to put her face down and did not dare to clarify this misunderstanding of Ji Nuan with anyone.
Her voice was not soft and instantly drew the attention of the crowd around them. Right now, all of the school leaders were drinking under the stage. There was also no one hosting the event. With the focus on Ji Nuan, those rumors and slanders that had gradually spread after the school internet was sealed for a day, appeared hidden in all of these people’s gazes. Like sharp blades, they flew toward Ji Nuan’s direction.
“I say, Ji Nuan, this gown you’re wearing doesn’t look cheap. President Mo must have bought it for you, didn’t he? So, you’re really holding onto his big thigh now? You must have put in a lot of effort to seduce him, didn’t you? How does it feel to interfere in someone else’s relationship? I really look down on people like you… ah!”
An ice-cold sensation on her head suddenly interrupted Xu Yao’s arrogant derision.
All the crowd saw was a glass of champagne being poured down from upstairs. Without wasting a single drop, all of them landed on her head. Afterward, more splashed onto her gown. Drip by drip, she instantly appeared to be an extremely sorry figure.
Xu Yao raised a hand to her head in astonishment. The surrounding crowd was even more startled.
As everyone lifted their heads, all they saw was an ink-black suit cuff and a hand holding an emptied wine glass over the gold railings on the second floor. A tall silhouette was faintly discernible under the dazzling lights in the glamorous venue.
